    The Lions already tried this. The little kid whose play was picked couldn't draw a straight line, and it led to Dan Orlovsky running out of the back of the end zone.

    Anyone else ever try to assemble an entire team of white guys in NBA 2K9? Or am I just a closet racist?

    @Hit Bull Win Steak: Me and my friend Jeff did that with NBA Live 95. We had a whole list of rules too. I know I had Vinny Del Negro, but beyond that I couldn't possibly name the rest of my team.

    For those without stars who wonder what they're missing in the unapproved comments, there have been 4 separate dunderheads point out to Craggs that Steve Nash is Canadian. Nothing to see here.

    Fox News will be running a similar feature next week, with Bill O'Reilly trying to figure out why we haven't seen a white American President in almost a full year.

    ...if it weren't for the pernicious stereotype about white players and defense.

    The one that Kermit Washington started about them all having glass jaws?

    "run by white Americans, coached by white Americans and marketed to white Americans, and whose white American commissioner once hired a white American political consultant"

    And David Stern already knows about the Underground Railroad. Fool me once...

    The reason white boys don't make it to the NBA? It's venue physics: In indoor arenas, they can't get their uniforms dirty.

    Also, Americans haven't elected a white president since 2004. We don't just need a Jackie Robinson, we need a Barack Obama too.

    For OTL to go rummaging around the dark recesses of the league's psyche for some sinister explanation to a piece of demographic trivia isn't just wrongheaded; it's a rite borrowed from the Church of the Aggrieved White Male (Bishop Glenn Beck presiding).

    I look forward to seeing this sentence way in the upper-right corner of next week's Approval Matrix.

    @MarkKelsosMigraine: Okay, I'm torn. I can't tell if you intentionally confused Aminu Timberlake for Gimel because you wanted to make a "The Night the Internationals Took Over" joke; or you accidentally confused Aminu for Gimel but everybody got the point.

    Seriously, I've been stuck here for about 10 minutes.

    On the plus side, Fig Newton and skim milk sales are brisk in the coveted "non-NBA player" demographic.
