This is not exactly nerdy, jocks usually don’t qualify as nerdy, but it is about a pro-basketball player that my bf refers to as “that goofy bastard,” especially when he scored points during the Western conference finals between the Spurs and the Lakers (bf=Spurs fan).  ok, my simple question is: does Pau Gasol ever close his mouth?  Or is it only during basketball games that he makes sure to stay slack-jawed? 

Another quick query, is their any specific reason why the sports announcers do so much kobe bryant ass-kissing?  i mean it’s fine every now and then, but EVERY single time he scores?  I mean even when he doesn’t do anything special?  This guy could wipe his ass and they’d say something like “left-handed folks!”  Are they getting extra money from ad execs?  And lastly, where the hell was Ginobili’s mojo?  I mean, I know acrylic nails are a b*tch (they are very painful sometimes) but c’mon?!
