Greek gods, really? I'm not sure being able to dribble and throw a ball qualify one for godhood.

Shame I couldn't be there to throw my panties at the stand.

He thinks it's the "best paper in the city" because it's the only paper in the city that will print him prattling on endlessly making entirely irrelevent proints. Although apparently the local court transcripts now also let him do that.

He's peeved that the key area staff didn't recognize him? So I guess he's an incurable narcisist, too. Hardly surprising, given that he got on KUOW to broadcast to the world a blow-by-blow account of how he accepted his National Book Award with a vomit in his mouth.

That's so cute: You're both legends in your own minds.

i fail to see how comic relief helps the city's case.

@7 I agree.

What is this circus of a trial about, anyway? What happened to the simple notion of a breech of contract?

Wow, actual Sherman Alexie haters. I thought I was so alone. I once heard him tell a diarrhea story about being on Oprah getting surprised (yeah, sure) with a WWII medal for his late gramps. It was sort of funny but mostly not.

He provides anecdotal evidence that there is at least one human in Seattle who will provide the Sonics with a little cash and a body in the stands. He probably did it better than the guy in Section 118, Row G, Seat 24.

I hope he makes the point that some rich white dude from Oklahoma is coming West to steal his shit.

According to ESPN's account, Sherman made a clown of himself.
