I’ve tried to contain my obsession with the Spurs and keep that bit of my life minimalized on my blog. I figure I’ve done a pretty good job of it and should be able to do so at least until the play-offs start. Then I must warn you guys…I shall be in full Spurs mode. And it’s not always pretty!
But, I have posted about my favorite team two other times. Here and here. So it should come as no surprise that what follows does not make me very happy. For several reasons.
This article is about one of the people I look up to. Maybe even consider him a hero…but I’ve written about heroes before and I don’t like to use the term hero too lightly.
It seems that David Robinson is being sued by Major League Baseball….
The Christian school he founded has a logo similar to one used by the California Angels in the past.
Why does this annoy me so?
I get really annoyed at our sue-happy culture…the logos aren’t the same, they are similar. What’s the big deal. The team doesn’t even use the similar logo anymore!
And I’m a die hard fan of the Spurs, and the Admiral is a former player as well as current part owner of that team….
and die hard fans always stick with their man, right?
I also admire David Robinson for many reasons that have nothing to do with basketball. He was more than willing to discuss this problem with the MLB.
This Brad Paisley song comes to mind. I’d like to dedicate it to the MLB…
Go on keep trying
Come on keep calling
You know I like it
When you come crawling
Its like music
To hear you bawling
Waa, waa, waa, waa, waa
Grrrr….. I’m really, really annoyed about this! Maybe I am biased…but, o well.
