Can someone explain this to me?
>> Wednesday
In the midst of boredom, I was searching through ESPN.com and ran across some 12 year journeyman’s journal. We were talking about Raja Bell and those guys being nobodies, this guy is a serious nobody. His name is “Paul Shirley has played for 12 pro basketball teams, including three NBA teams -- the Chicago Bulls, Atlanta Hawks and Phoenix Suns.” I bet you’ve never heard of the guy either. (Unless you’ve read his crappy journal before) Anyway, in this journal entry he is supposed to be talking about how people think he looks a little like Matt Leinart, then all the sudden starts talking about what new band he likes and how he got a boner while getting a massage, and maybe he boned his masseuse or maybe he didn’t. Then at the end he says how he gets free things for looking like Leinart. Dude! What the fuck are you complaining about? Leinart could probably get any chick in LA, and gets a ton of free shit. Why are you complaining about looking like him and getting some of his perks sometimes? It’s probably better than being yourself (a talent less bench warmer in the NBA) that get little to no recognition. Why does ESPN even care about this guy? Do they owe him a favor or something?
See for yourself.

Yeah so Paul Shirley...I'm actually a fan of his stuff. This year the stuff he's written for ESPN hasn't been that great but he's probably holding back I don't know. Last year when he was on the Suns roster - obviously as the 13th man - he was asked by them to write for their site and well that led to him writing for ESPN and now writing a boook and working on a sitcom loosely based on his life I think but I'm not sure. So he's a nobody but his life ain't that bad with all that shit going on...plus getting confused w/ Leinart. I'll go out on a limb and say that he'll end up having a more successful life than you or I.
What kind of insinuation is that? Is anonymous implying that Yellow Chair won't boost you to celebrity status? Come on, within a year we'll be outscoring Matt Leinart and J.J. Hardy combined.
No way man, JJ Hardy? Dude, bedroom eyes. He owns Yellow Chair.
"I'll go out on a limb and say that he'll end up having a more successful life than you or I."
I love when people use this argument. 'He's famous, therefore don't make fun of him.' That's logic you can't refute, suckas.
Who is anonymous anyway? I assume it's one of our friends, but if not, holy shit we have a reader!
