Athletes I Don’t Like #1
I’ve decided to start a segment here known as “Athletes I Don’t Like.” It basically what it says, athletes that I struggle to like. On with the show.
I’ve been watching some of the NBA Finals over the last few days, and I’ve been reminded about an athlete that I just can’t find any reason to like: Pau Gasol. There’s just something about him that makes me wish the worst for him.
I think he’s a bit of Bill Laimbeer with a side of Vlade Divac. He flops all over the court. He has never committed a foul, the refs get it wrong. Just that stupid look of, “What? You’re calling a foul on me?! Are you kidding?!? What did I do?!” Any call that goes against him is like someone abducted his firstborn. He’s actually a good player, I just can’t get past his pathetic whining. Play the game and stop acting like an infant.
Congratulations, Pau! You’re number 1!
