Mystery Disease Kills Thousands
Gay Marriage Vote Puts Heat On Christie
Mi Spanish es mal, but Hoopshype and Babelfish combine to tell me this story on Yahoo!'s Spanish-language sports site says Brazil's players have performed a mutiny against team coach Lula Ferreira. The story quotes Marquinho, which is New Orleans Hornet Marcus Vinicius' apparent nickname. Marquinho also apparently goes by Marcus de Souza, since that's the only Hornet on Brazil's roster. Which is to say THE BRAZILIAN NAMING STRUCTURE CONFUSES ME.If we believe this story, Brazil is going into today's very important match-up with Argentina (a team which has already beat Brazil once this week) having dispatched its coach, leaving team star Leandro Barbosa to call the plays (I predict many threes) and set the rotation while an Olympic berth is on the line. (The winner of each of today's semifinal games -- U.S./Puerto Rico is the other one -- is... berthed into the Beijing Olympics.) And we learned all this from a 23-year-old rookie who has played exactly 46 minutes in Brazil's eight FIBA Americas games. Which is to say WATCH YOUR BACK BYRON SCOTT.
You can watch Brazil vs. Argentina on a tape delay at 9 p.m. on ESPN Classic, which is preceded by U.S.-Puerto Rico live on the same channel.
