In Saturday's 80-59 triumph over Arkansas-Pine Bluff, a win that improved the Ducks to 7-1 - their best start since 2007 when they won eight of their first nine games - Kazemi had game-highs in rebounds (13) and steals (five). The players that score the points usually get their names in headlines, so when it was put to Kazemi that he's willing to do the dirty work to help the Ducks, he answered to FIBA.com: "It's just my personality. "I just like to do whatever my team needs me to do. "We were struggling a little bit on the boards, so I tried to do a little bit more and get my team going. "Defensively, I can get some steals. I can pass the ball pretty good, too, so those are things I can do." With Iran, Kazemi has been able to put the ball in the basket. He also scored 11 points against Arkansas-Pine Bluff, which gave him the 46th double-double of his career and first at Oregon. "Any time they need me to score, I can look for my shot and get my offense going as well," he said. Kazemi's game-high in rebounds this season was 15 against a good Cincinnati team.

Putting on the Iran shirt, Kazemi says, has "definitely" made him a better player. "The best experience I've had in my life as a basketball player came when I played at the World Championship against NBA players," he said. "It was probably the best competition that I've ever been in and it helped me a lot. "I learned a lot and it was just a great experience. "It showed me first of all that yes, I can play against them," he said. "That brought up my confidence so much. I was probably one of the youngest players in the World Championship at the time so I decided that if I work hard, I can accomplish a lot of my goals. "My main goal now is to get to the www.matrixar.com="http://www.fiba.com/pages/eng/fc/gameCent/p/leagueid/NBA/ot/1/leagueProfile.html" style="color: #ed5f01; text-decoration: initial;">NBA.

He has not ruled out featuring with the national team again, though. "I really would love to join the national team but I already talked to them about it," he said. "It´s too early. "I´m trying to focus on my basketball right now in college, concentrate on what I´m doing and our goals for the Oregon basketball team and next year. If I play well enough, there is the NBA Draft. But there are a lot of ifs. "There will be the NBA Summer League and all that, and I told them (Iran Basketball Federation) that I may not be able to come and practice with the team but if they want me to go straight to the Asian Games (Asian Championship), I´ll be more than happy. "This is something that I want, to reach my goal (of the NBA). I do really want to play for my national team, but there are going to be a lot of ifs." Kazemi says it helps him a lot that the federation and his national squad teammates have been very supportive. "Definitely," he said.

Grambling trailed 38-20 early in the fourth quarter but cut into Southern's lead with two touchdowns. The Tigers reached Southern's 41-yard line, but Grambling quarterback Frank Rivers was sacked and fumbled to end the game. The game marked the end of disappointing seasons for both teams. Southern (4-7, 3-6 Southwestern Athletic Conference) fired coach Stump Mitchell two games into the season and expects to replace interim coach Dawson Odoms. Grambling (1-10, 0-9), the defending league champion, ended the season with one victory for the first time since 1941 -- the school's inaugural year under legendary coach Eddie Robinson. Grambling took a 14-0 lead, converting a pair of fumbles by Southern into touchdown passes by D.J. Williams.

They have been called Americas Team and the Team That Saved Baseball. Who cares? There problems still exist, their owner would rather contract then see someone else own them and lose money, no one still comes to their games? And as far as success goes, who the hell cares? Has your team won a World Series Title? Mine hasn't in Cleveland, what about you Seattle? Boston? Chicago? San Fran? ect. The Twins won in 87 and 91. I watched both. Since their fans don't give shit and they have won tw2o world series titles in my lifetime, I would rather they lose and lose soon. That's my feeling. Americas Team in the MLB is the Damn Yankees. I'm sure the players are nice hardworking guys, but hey Twins, You will be leaving the great north soon enough! No amount of money we'll help you stay? Especially when you'll have to take mid-level contract extension to live in Minnesota where the fans don't come to the game, the owner doesn't want the team to do anything other than be owned by him, and the the fans alaso don't want their beer and wine taxed by a cent or whatever so you can play in a modern marvel of a stadium with all the amnenities you demand. That is why I could care less for the Twins. 2) Mark this down. Another annoyance by the sportswriters. Clippers will not make the playoffs. The Bulls will. The Clips were a big fave for me last year. this year they traded DMiles for Andre Miller. Everyone loves the deal. Here's the problem. DMiles gone (that one is for me). Seriously though: Andre Miller, who can become an unrestricted free agent, is given to the Clips to lead: a want-to-be-way overpaid center in Olawakandi, an All-Star who should have been maxed out already so will be pissed off Brand, two #1 draft pick power foward to add to that. A former #1 and Yugo world champ to back up Miller (Do you think he might want to play?) plus former #1 Keyon Dooling. Lamar Odem. QRichardson and Corey Maggette. Now I'm just listing names that sound like great players. But none of them have been given the extensions they want. All of them have alot they are going to want to prove on the court, and they simply won't be able to. They are now a young Blazers. I think they got too many problems. Elton Brand and Andre Miller will shine as usual. But guess what, they'll shine on the same level as before: on a lottery team. I think Olawakandi will be the breaking point. He thinks he deserves the max. He averages 11 pts and 8 rebounds. He's a role player. He thinks he's star. He'll not produce, piss off teammates, then Everyone will go for the glory. Next thing you know, its one more year. The Bulls will make the playoffs. I just read a preseason power rankings that list the Bulls low (understandable), but then reasons Jason Williams must have a rookie year as good as Tony Parker to make the playoffs. Well shit, shouldn't he? He was the college player of the year last year and has first team all-america two years in a row. So if that's true the Bulls are playoff caliber. I heard crap about how the "Bulls didn't get a All-Star caliber Small Forward" Do these people know anything about the Bulls? The Bulls have made it clear they'd like Jamal Crawford and Jay Williams to play in the backcourt together than have Jalen Rose to lead from small forward. Then they have an athlete in Eddie Robinson to come off the bench. Tenton Hassell had a good rookie year, they hope he can spell in the back court. They would like Marcus Fizer and Veteren Donyell Marshall to spell of the bench at both SF & PF. Then have Eddy Curry develop in the pivot and Tyson Chandler groomed at PF. Why pick up another young gun? Rose & Williams have more than enough fire power to score, then add in the young mix around them to play hard, hustle, and be aggressive. This team is poised to be pegged at the 7th or 8th slot in the playoffs. Writers should quit blasting Jerry Krause for stealing the logo's Jerry West comment (Players don't win championships, organizations do) for makiing the safe pick in Jason Williams. You know what a safe pick in the NBA draft means to me? It means you just drafted a special player in the top 5 that is such a special player that he will be worth every penny you pay them and we'll lead your team successfully for years to come. I want that player. Rose & Williams, write it down.

Now this really has nothing to do with the state, I'm not bad mouthing the state. It has more to do with the peculiar and weird sweet mericful crap that has been coming out of it. And I'm not talking about news of concerning Jessie Ventura, or how mosquitos are everywhere, or that it snows so damn much... OK that's a little bad mouthing. But for the most part trust me, I gotz no designs against the land that gave us the Lakers, Dave Winfield, and Hubert H. Humphrey. The latest tidbit of news dominating my brainwaves is the continueing Misadventures of Randy Moss. Seriously, can you not wait for his life to become a movie. Wes Anderson should direct, because he does such an excellent job bringing out the best in characters who are idiots. The latest event that brought Randy into our homes every night deals with him disobeying a traffic cop by taking an illegal left hand turn in downtown Minneapolis, ignoring the 27- year old female traffic cop blowing her whistle trying to get him to stop, rolling along, then knocking her down. He of course was mindful enough then to stop. Now Randy apparently is not the most friendly guy with the media, doesn't always listen to people in authority, and is often accused of feeling he can get away with just about anything. But let us forget all that for a second, think about Randy instistence that "trouble looks for me", crycry, wawa crap and think about this: How many people do you know have run over a traffic cop when they were making an illegal left hand turn? Personally, I've never been lucky enough to know such a person, but maybe I'm sheltered. Moss is biggest problem, to me, is that he has the easiest excuse to use. One that would work like a charm because it is true. Instead he keeps digging a bigger and bigger hole for himself. Right now he should be fodder for a Saturday Night Live skit where he is in Cool Hand Luke and outside digging the hole. The excuse he should be giving is this: "Listen, I'm an idiot. I've been blessed with some amazing physical skills. I'm as good a wideout as you're ever going to get. I'm a total stud on the field. But I ain't the sharpest knife in the drawer. I fuck up a lot. I do stupid things. I don't think things through. I need to be on the field, playing, catching TD's helping out Jim Whiteside's fantasy team (for whom I've been a real dissapointment so far, especially after Peter King predicted a 2,000 yd season). Off the field, I'm going to have lapses in judgement. We should just do everyone a favor, stop interviewing me, don't let me even talk. Just let me play, and when I get in trouble, let me take the punishment that's handed out, and lets move on." This is what he should be saying. He probably won't mention his dissapointment in not putting up the huge fantasy numbers for my team, but oh well. You see, it really needs to almost take a page out of the Mike Tyson apology process. Iron Mike yesterday apologized for swearing in front of an Ohio Tax Commision Board by saying "My elavator doesn't always go to the top floor", we need these comments from Moss people! I make this assertion because Moss continues to prove he's an idiot by explaining his action. Hey Randy, no need to explain them to me! Just catch touchdowns. No need to talk to reporters either, hell he doesn't say anything of interest! Just catch TD's! Don't feel like meeting with the fans? Who cares? Just catch touchdowns. You don't see Manny Ramirez talking to the media do ya? He knows his place. That's why I love him. Manny had the Red Sox play "I Get High" on the PA before one of his at bats this year. Was it a big deal? Hell no. Manny doesn't bother to talk to the media because he doesn't know what the hell to say. And guess what, PEOPLE LOVE HIM! As proof of all of this, let's look at the incident, and I believe it shows that if Randy would just take the idiot stance all would be well. He is out for a relaxing drive in his Lexus, so he decides to drive around downtown at rush hour. Why? All the open space in Minnesota and he goes to probably the only place there could be any sort of traffic. How is traffic relaxing? He says the traffic cop didn't say anything to him. This is probably because he didn't stop moving while she was blowing her friggin' whistle. This was described as a surreal scene. How does a man recognize NFL DB coverage, and not know that someone with a whistle is trying to make you stop? Idiocy. Randy says he just got cuffed and thrown in the back seat of a cop car. duh! He stopped so he knows he knocked her over. I'd fully expect to be thrown in the back of a cruiser and I'm a middle class white guy. Then, and to me this is the worst, he doesn't know where the maryjane in his car came from. People drive all his cars, he doesn;t know what they be doin' in there. Listen, when I drove my parents cars, I made a concerted effort NOT to leave pot in the car. He's in the NFL, his boyz know he could get in trouble. There is no way in hell he could have been surprised by this. He should have just said he was an idiot, some of his boyz smoke, and he knew it shouldn't be there but it was. Once again, the more he trys to explain it, the more stupid it gets. Hell, he really just say it was his. Seriously, does anyone care? He wouldn't get suspended, maybe he might have to take a few drug tests. So what? Maybe he could use some time off the demon weed. Like I said, he ain't the brightest bulb. So maybe a year of random tests might be good. This all really could be a mute issue if Randy just followed my advice. Fess up, let all of this crap go. Catch some TD's. Score me some fantasy wins. Please! Plus, he could take the wonderful stance of how lucky he is that nothing more has come of this. He bitches about how unfair this is. What? Just say you're a moron, you're lucky to get through this without any felony charge, and move on. And for God's sake Don't talk to Andrea Kramer, we all know nothing good will come out of that. If ya gotta do an interview, do it with Ann Werner, please! And he is lucky you know, no felony charge and no pot charge. There are college kids everyday gettin' busted for having half a joint on them. They didn't even let the media know how much was there. He's a lucky bastard. Recant Randy Recant! This could go along way to curing the world and all the Randy Moss's out there. I have a friend who infuriates me because when he fucks up, he just admits it, says he's an idiot, and moves on. Why does this make me mad? Because there's nothing to pursue if the story is "My bad, dumb move, sorry, can't do anything about it know, but hopefully I'll know better in the future. So Randy, just admit the truth. Hellm you don't even know what the word contraband means, or how to pronounce it. Everyone has different talents. You are good at playing football. You fucked up, you'll probably do it again. But at least you stopped once you knocked the traffic cop down? You didn't kill anyone. It was a dumb move. Move on and quit talking about it. Explain your situation, you're not good with words, and let Moe Williams be your spokesman. This would WORK. In my next rant I'll talk about what dominates the Twins and the T-Wolves as I feel into the Minnesota sports scene.

Globex Central is a unique opportunity to point out the things that I look at everyday. The name Globex is a tribute to the fictional visionary Hank Scorpio, a man hellbent on World Domination, former ruler of the east coast in Simpsonian America, and the man who gave Homer Simpson the gift of Pat Bowlon's Denver Broncos. While Hank's vision was a tad flawed and scewed, I pay tribute to him with my views, which will be presented thrice (a word I do not believe exists, but bear with me...it means three) a week, on who or what dominates my consciencous for a given day or moment. Or as I so confusedly put it, world domination by the world itself. A phrase which hopefully someday will be reflected upon like "the only thing we have to fear is fear itself" (which is confusing since if we fear something it is by definition a fear and therefore if it wasn't a fear we wouldn't fear it so really they only thing there could ever be to fear would be fear...yadayada, so on and so forth). You see, the concept of world domination really is a tad "out of touch". But that does not stop those dreamers out there from trying. When we read, see, or hear about a larger than life, or sometimes a shockingly forgettable, figure who dominates our thinking, we see in front of us one of the many figures who in small doses dominate the world. That's why in a sick way we appreciate them. Sure, no one dominates the world, or could even try like dear Hank Scorpio. But we see in every larger image, a smaller example and likewise in a small example a larger image. My basic premise, or "theory" have you, is that world domination occurs everyday by almost everyone. So I hope to take an issue that some twenty-something like me or some other backend Gen Xer looks at in the news or their lives and see how that person is contributing to world domination by the world itself. Confusing? I hope so. That is why it is such a perplexing issue to tackle! But in the coming weeks tackle it we will. So here is to world domination, and here is to many more interesting lines by myself in this lovely blog. Hopefully I'll gain some boost to the ol' self-esteem by posting my rantings, which of course will add to my overall self-worth because I'll feel like I'm actually accomplishing something. And, more than anything, I will fulfill that little jones I have to see myself posted on the information superhighway.

Kiszla wrote a rip-job. The kind of sneering, mocking, I-am-so-much-smarter-than-all-you-fools rip job that only Kiszla can write. The starting point of Kiszla's column is that Greg Popovich is out-coaching Karl in this series. Maybe he is. To borrow Kiszla's smug choice of words, I'm not enough of a "keen observer of the league" to know. But I'd like to think I'm a competent enough observer of journalism, and the Denver sports pages in particular, to recognize Kiszla's Sunday column as one of the most laughable to appear in the Post in 20 years. The seeds that sprouted Kisla's Sunday column were planted three months earlier. Shortly before the Nuggets hired Karl in late January, Kiszla wrote that the choice would be a monumental mistake. I had no particular problem with that column. Didn't agree with it, but certainly didn't feel like he was expressing an indefensible point of view. But after writing the January column -- in which he said something about Kroenke choking on the taste of his own shoe leather for having suggested his team was 50-win material -- Kiszla basically ran and hid from the best pro hoops story this town has seen in 20 years. A column in February about Carmelo, a column in March about Najera, and utter silence about Karl until Sunday. Maybe 32-8 wasn't enough to convince him that he was wrong. And maybe I could respect if not share that viewpoint if he had chosen to back it up with some basketball rationale either from his own point of view or one of his shrewd sources who fully expected Pop to school Karl. Instead he delivered a littany of post-shots that offered zero insight into Game 3 or any other topic worthy of a column in a major daily newspaper. He sarcastically dubbed Karl the "answer man." He mocked him for his "regal entrance," apparently beieving Karl should have hid under the bench until tipoff. Kiszla sneered at the ignorant crowd for enthusiasm of their ovation for Karl. He criticized the coach for critizing officials, which was the same kind of playoff politicking that Popovich practiced during the conference finals last spring when he complained that Shaq got away with murder and his players couldn't touch Kobe. He ripped the coach for utterly unremarkable comments about Manu Ginobli. He even stooped so low as to use Karl's interest in a couple of college positions last spring as evidence (to use the term loosely) that he is outclassed by Pop. In other words, Kiszla offered nothing to anyone who read his column with the expectation of learning something about the series. Kiszla came across in his column as nothing but an angry guy with an ax to grind. Like the Nuggets, he'll get another chance tonight. Here's hoping that Kiszla and the Nuggets make the most of their opportunities.

Krieger observed the symmetry of the Nuggets going from the NBA's "feel-good story" of a year ago to the "throw-up story" early this season. Channel 9's Drew Soicher predicted on Wednesday night that Bzdelik would survive through Sunday night's game in Sacramento. Although I caught Soicher's prediction only because I couldn't find the remote control fast enough to escape from his smirky, smart-assness, he actually made a decent point. Soicher figures that Kiki will let Bzdelik absorb the likely losses to Detroit tonight and the Kings on Sunday. Then the new coach, presumably Michael Cooper, can gain some momentum and Kiki can look smart if the team takes care of business at home next week against Toronto and Chicago. CARMELODRAMA It won't matter whether Bzdelik or Cooper coaches the Nuggets if Carmelo Anthony cannot find his game. Carmelo is shooting 31 percent, playing no defense, and showing little energy. His lack of focus and confidence is evident even in his stroke from the foul line. www.matrixar.com="http://wc0.worldcrossing.com/WebX?14@321.gZnUcZ9k4ZU@.1de19320">Nuggets fans are jumping off the Melo bandwagon, and The Post reported this morning that www.matrixar.com="http://www.denverpost.com/Stories/0,1413,36~90~2527412,00.html">Melo may be pulled from the starting lineup tonight. Criticism of Anthony reached absurd proportions Wednesday morning on The Fan when "Lou from Littleton" called him a "cancer." It was a cheap shot from an ill-informed, hip-hop-phobic talk-show host. Lou's disdain for young, black millionaires with corn rows and rap CDs is apparent even to those of us who listen to him only during commercials on other stations. To his credit, Lou backed off this morning, allowing that Anthony has "a good heart," and simply needs better guidance. As Mark Kiszla suggested on Wednesday, www.matrixar.com="http://www.denverpost.com/Stories/0,1413,36%257E107%257E2524924,00.html">maybe he could use his mom. I don't pretend to know what's wrong with Melo. Maybe there are behind-the-scenes issues that the beat writers are missing. The regulars who sit near me in Section 144 seem to think there are deep divisions in the locker room, and that Melo's only ally is Marcus Camby (who has been invisible the last three games). I take their observations with a grain of salt, or better yet with a shot of Jack at the Blue Sky Grill. But it's fair to say that Melo's teammates aren't showing much affection for him on the court, on the bench, or in the press. It's unclear what Bzdelik thinks he can accomplish by benching Anthony. If he were the sole culprit in the Nuggets' awful play, maybe I could see the logic. But the entire team has been awful. So why single out Anthony? Consider his Olympic fiasco. Whether you believe Larry Brown scape-goated Anthony or simply told it like it was, Brown's castigations damaged Anthony's confidence. Bzdelik has legitimate gripes with Anthony's play, but the Olympic saga suggests it would not be constructive to single him out in such obvious fashion. If I were covering the Nuggets I'd call Jim Boeheim. My hunch is that Boeheim would preach tough love, not further public reprimand, as the way to effectively reach Carmelo. Carmelo doesn't need a benching; he needs some open shots. If Bzdelik could get his team to push the tempo, and to move their bodies and the basketball in the half-court offense, he might find that Anthony doesn't have to force 20-foot fadeaways. And if Anthony could find -- and make -- some open shots, he would probably find some energy to play defense, too. PM UPDATE: I sent an email to Kiki and Bzdelik this morning, basically cutting and pasting the two preceding paragraphs. Kiki's reply: "I agree but it's the coach's decision." I'm not holding my breath waiting for Bzdelik to reply. He used to answer my emails but got fed up with me back in March when I sent an email during their late-season slump suggesting that their season of great promise was on the verge of becoming a cruel joke. He let me have it, which I suppose I'd have done if I were him, and has ignored my last three or four emails. IRONIC INSUBORDINATION Ex-Broncos defensive backs coach David Gibbs joined elite company on Tuesday when he was fired for insubordination. I can recall only one other Broncos' assistant who was fired for insubordination: Mike Shanahan. The same guy who did the firing this week did the insubordinating 15 years ago -- at least according to Dan Reeves, who fired him. Thus far, media accounts have not indicated whether Gibbs was scripting defensive calls.

Here is a passage from Stein's story: A couple scouts who watched the Nuggets' Opening Night loss to the Lakers told me that the body language they saw from Bzdelik's players convinced them that the coach had lost the team before the season even started. Apart from a stirring second-half comeback against Denver's hated rivals from Minnesota, the body language and effort has steadily worsened. Stein's comments echoed the observation of ESPN analyst Mark Jackson, who said after the Nuggets' loss in Utah on Monday night that the team needs either a coaching change or a significant personnel change. Nuggets owner Stan Kroenke www.matrixar.com="http://www.insidedenver.com/drmn/nuggets/article/0,1299,DRMN_20_3318156,00.html">declined comment when the Rocky's Chris Tomasson inquired about Bzdelik's status after Seattle embarrassed the Nuggets on Tuesday night. www.matrixar.com="http://thehutchsportsblog.blogspot.com/2004/11/november-9-2004.html"> As I wrote yesterday,, Bzdelik deserves a better fate. But if Stein and his anonymous scouts are correct that the coach has lost his players, then Kiki Vandeweghe -- and Stan Kroenke -- need to make a coaching change before the season spirals out of control. They cannot afford to wait until Christmas, which The Post's Mark Kiszla www.matrixar.com="http://www.denverpost.com/Stories/0,1413,36~107~2524924,00.html">suggests would be the limit of Kiki's patience. NO TIME TO WASTE The notion of the season spiraling out of control, just five games into an 82-game schedule, is not as reactionary as it seems. The Nuggets play ten of their next 12 games at home. The home-road imbalance then shifts. Every game they lose at Pepsi Center represents a victory they will have to pick up on the road just to play .500 ball. Even during the mid-1980s, when the Nuggets were consistently among the top three or four teams in the Western Conference, they struggled mightily on the road. Given their history and their current "funk," as Bzdelik termed it last night, the importance of the next 12 games would be difficult to overstate. A CLOSER LOOK AT KIKI Kiki has been a media darling since unloading Dan Issel's mistakes on the Dallas Mavericks in February 2002. And indeed, Vandeweghe deserves substantial credit for Denver's transformation from NBA black hole to desired destination. But with Kiki's seemingly formidable collection of talent achieving nothing but notoriety at present, it is worth revisiting a couple of his decisions. His most obvious mistake was the selection of Nikoloz Tskitishvili with the fifth overall pick in the 2002 draft. Over two-plus seasons in Denver, Skita has displayed an array of impressive European fashions but barely a glimmer of talent. Remember also that Kiki had Carlos Arroyo and let him go, even though the floor leadership and shooting stroke that have made Arroyo a fixture in Utah were evident during his 20-game stay with the Nuggets in 2001-02. And more recently, Kiki left Jon Barry hanging until Barry's wife decided it was too late to move the kids back from Atlanta. That left the Nuggets an even poorer outside shooting team than they were last season, when outside shooting was already a liability. I'm not jumping off of the Kiki bandwagon. But with the prospect of a coaching change looming, it is only fair to point out that things might look a whole lot better today if Skita could play, and if they had a couple of shooters like Barry and Arroyo. (ABSURDLY) POSITIVE ALTITUDE Jerome Jurenovich and Brandon Cruz may or may not be able journalists. It's impossible to judge from their work on Altitude's Nuggets post-game shows. That's because journalism -- even the sensational/comedic ESPN kind of reporting -- falls outside Altitude's program concepts. I haven't yet dared to sample the pre-game fare, but I can say with assurance that if you thought Nuggets and Avalanche coverage on FOXSportsNet was more public relations than journalism, a dose of Jurenovich and Cruz will leave you pining nostalgically for the comparatively Murrow-like reporting of Sandy Williams. This is no surprise, of course. Altitude is Kroenke's network and the Nuggets are Kroenke's team. Each is a marketing tool for the other. But the incestuous relationship between the basketball team and its television outlet devolves into unintended comedy when the team fails as miserably as these Nuggets have failed through five games. After Utah completed its back-to-back thumping of the Nuggets, Jurenovich enthusiastically commented during the Monday post-game show, "I don't know what Jeff Bzdelik said to his team after Saturday's game, but whatever it was, it worked! The Nuggets played with much greater intensity tonight!" And last night, in locker room interviews with Greg Buckner and Dermarr Johnson, Jurenovich had this gem of a "question:" "At times tonight the team looked really cohesive and played extremely well together. Then at other times you really seemed to struggle. That's got to be frustrating." Questions unasked included why the team didn't play hard, whether the players support Bzdelik, and whether Carmelo Anthony is the source of frustration if not dissension among his teammates. Less offensive on Monday and Tuesday were Chris Marlowe's play-by-play and Bill Hanzlik's commentary, but is it really necessary for Marlowe to ask Hanzlik to identify the "positives" during the final moments of a blowout loss? Scott Hastings would have laughed at the question. Although Hastings does not typically confront players or coaches with tough questions, he has not been an apologist for the Nuggets over the years. Indeed, I have to wonder whether Hastings' candor will be tolerated. Actually, I don't wonder at all. if the Nuggets don't reverse their fortunes quickly, Hastings' attitude will no longer be welcome at Altitude.

Kiki Vandeweghe's widely praised, heavily hyped rebuilding job looked like a house of cards compared to Kevin O'Connor's seemingly overnight reconstruction of the Utah Jazz. Utah, led by a young Russian named Andrei Kirilenko who is everything that Nikoloz Tskitishvili was supposed to be, appears primed to reclaim its position among the Western Conference elite. The Jazz feature an array of physical talents -- power, finesse, sharp shooting, shot-blocking -- but most of all, they feature commitment to team basketball. In the two blowout wins over Denver, Utah played like the team the Nuggets were hyped to be: they ran off of every missed shot, they moved without the basketball, they passed, they cut, and not coincidentally, they got open shots. The Nuggets, for their part, have been painful to watch so far. Even in their home-opening victory over Minnesota, the Nuggets looked clueless on offense for most of the night. Their offensive style is supposed to be defined by a dual commitment to running at every opportunity, and to passing and cutting in the half-court game. They do neither. They don't do much on defense, either, routinely failing to provide weak-side help, missing rotations, and showing minimal inclination to fight through screens. Rash conclusions are normally ill-advised when you're four games into an 82-game marathon, but Nuggets' problems date back to last season. The Fan's Sandy Clough pointed out on his program Monday night that the Nuggets are 13-23 over their last 36 regular season and playoff games. And the fundamental problem we saw late last season is the same one that we see today: the Nuggets do not play with a consistent commitment to up-tempo, motion basketball. Talk all you like about Carmelo's lost stroke and the lack of pure shooters on the roster, but the bigger issue is that they aren't getting good shots. Assessing the Nuggets' early-season struggles in the context of what happened after the All-Star break last year, it is not too early for Kiki to consider firing Jeff Bzdelik. Obviously Bzdelik is not coaching his players to over-dribble, stand around, and force contested jump shots. But that is what they are doing -- and that is what they did during their slump late last season. So whatever Bzdelik is preaching, his players aren't practicing. Under the unfair but inescapable axiom that it's easier to change the coach than the players, perhaps it's time to see if Michael Cooper can more effectively deliver the up-tempo, pass-and-cut message. Bzdelik's commitment to the message is ambiguous. He stands in his hands-on-hips pose, virtually expressionless, as Andre Miller trots up the court time and again. In contrast, Doug Moe never stopped imploring his point guards to run. Bzdelik often takes a knee and rests his chin on his hand while the Nuggets either stand in place or meander aimlessly around the perimeter. The Nuggets of 20 years ago were not beyond the temptation to stand around, but they responded to Moe's repeated pleas from the bench. Moe rarely let an offensive possession go by without hollering, "Swing it! Move the ball! Pass and cut, damnit!" Perhaps it's unfair to criticize Bzdelik by comparing his flat demeanor to Moe's animation, but it is certainly fair to question his resistance to starting games with the lineup that gives his team its best chance to run. That starting lineup would feature Earl Boykins at point guard. As the Rocky's Dave Krieger suggested on Saturday, Miller should start at off-guard. Obviously Miller lacks the shooting touch of an ideal 2-guard. But when your other option is Greg Buckner, what are you giving up? Starting Miller at off-guard would give them a better scorer than Buckner or anyone else on the roster at that position. And more importantly, it would transfer primary responsibility for pushing the tempo from the plodding Miller to the fearless, fleet-footed Boykins. I would like nothing more than to see Bzdelik turn this around. He is obviously a tireless worker, and he seems like a genuinely decent person. But ultimately it is Vandeweghe, not Bzdelik, who will receive credit or bear responsibility for the results of a rebuilding project that began three years ago. If Kiki believes that Bzdelik is failing to implement the style of play he wants to see, then Stan Kroenke should allow him to change coaches. Perhaps Bzdelik will be fired and then vindicated by the failure of the Nuggets as presently constituted to emerge as a top-tier team this season or next. In that event, Vandeweghe's own future with the Nuggets could be in jeopardy, especially given the remarkable job that O'Connor has done with the Jazz just 500 miles away. Maybe I'm just a long-suffering fan in denial, but I would like to believe that the home-and-home debacle proved more about the importance of up-tempo, motion basketball than it proved about the relative talent levels assembled by O'Connor and Kiki. There is no way to know for sure until the Nuggets embrace the style of play that Kiki built them to play.

I've had quite a struggle trying to keep up with everything thats been happening over the past week, but here's a quick rundown of things worth noting to get everyone up to speed... Good-Baron's has snatched 5 steals in every game so far. Bad-Eddy Curry still plays like a Baby Bull Good-Tyson Chandler doesn't Bad-It wasn't Jersey's style that held him back. Deke is just plain old. Good-The entire Lake Show starting 5 (yes, even Devean is putting up numbers) Bad-Poor Mike Finley looks like the odd man out in the Mavs starting 5 Good-Antoine Walker is arguably putting up better numbers with the Mavs! Bad-Antawn Jamison is not putting up anything at all And this is only the tip of the iceberg. Deeper leagues have all sorts of stories playing out that astute owners are keeping a close eye on. Will Carlos Arroyo hurry up a play another game so we can all get a decent evaluation of him? And speaking of the Jazz, can we get a look at Keon or what? What to make of the Vin Baker mini-resurgence (especially if he is Center-eligible in your league)? Will Memphis give Stromile the chance to shine? Should I snag Ray Ray's replacement and play him whiles hes hot? Did I really see Rashard drop 50 in Japan? Well if you want a little advice here's my tip of the day. This is to all the people hurting at the Center spot (probably 80% of owners). GET CARLOS BOOZER. He can probably be had cheap because he isn't a very well known player, but this guy is gonna be solid in everything. Oh, and don't give up on Curry yet.

There is no "Any Given Sunday" phenomenon as there is in football, and the performance of your players is much easier to predict. With this in mind I give you my rankings, painstakingly put together after countless hours of research. Keep in mind these rankings are based on standard 8-cats, but also includes TURNOVERS (so...basically, 9 categories). Each update I'll go over a different position. POINT GUARDS After Centers, PGs are the hardest category to fill. By my count, there are under 20 PGs in the league this year worthy of a start, a very low number considering many teams take the "2 PG approach" when drafting. 1. Jason Kidd: Obviously. Mr. Trip-Dub has been known to drop the occasional double digit TO night as well, but definitely worth overlooking for everything else he brings. 2. Jason Terry: Surprised? True, he's probably more of a SG than a PG, but he did average 7.4 assists last year (more than...ready for this...Nash, Francis, Baron, Arenas and Andre Miller). Even more impressive, he shoots a huge number of 3s and gets his fair share of steals. 3. Steve Nash: Great FG/FT%. Great Assist/TO ratio. Good 3s. He's in the Billups/Parker areas when it comes to steals, at about 1 per game, but he more than makes up for it in everything else. Solid guy won't hurt you in anything. Scoring will go down for him in Dallas, but he should be top 3 in dimes this year. 4. Stephon Marbury: Guy played hurt last year and dominated. Plays healthy this year and dominates even more. Also has great finishers to pass to. 5. Steve Francis: Another trip-dub waiting to happen. Another TO machine too though. If you don't count TOs bump him up right behind Kidd. 6. Gary Payton: He was amazing last year. Changing teams bumps him down a couple spots though. It's a risky pick whenever a PG changes teams (ex: Andre), but GP won't drop off as much as everyone thinks. 7. Baron Davis: Hopefully healthy, he should return to similar numbers from the year before last. His FT% still stink for a guard, but they improved a great deal last season. If he stays healthy he'll be a steal. 8. Gilbert Arenas: Again, it's risky when a PG changes teams. He's another TO machine, and after a horrid preseason he's been bumped down a couple spots. Will score much and brick much. 9. Andre Miller: Can he be the player he was in Denver? He never got it going in Clipperland, so a change of scenery might do wonders for him. I had him last year and he destroyed me. High risk/high reward. 10. Jamal Crawford: Check his numbers from the end of last season. Amazing. He did it all when given the minutes, and without Jay Will to split time with it's very possible he could emerge as a top-5 PG. I see a Most Improved Player Award in his future... 11. Nick Van Exel Nick Van Excels on crappy teams, and Golden State is most certainly a crappy team. Van Expect many many many 3s. 12. Eric Snow: If he had range, he'd be a great one. Good Assist/TO ratio and shoots at a high percentage. Gts overlooked becuase he's not exciting, but gets the job done. 13. Chauncey Billups: He chucks as many 3s as J. Terry, but for a PG his assists will be lacking. 14. Sam Cassell: Yeah yeah I know...Cassell probably shouldn't be this low. I've got a phobia for PGs that change teams, and Sam's been on the decline for a couple years now anyway. He'll be ok this year, but Hudson proved he deserved some shine in the playoffs. 15. Jason Williams: This guy really grew up last season. He really improved his assist/TO ratio and hit a ton of 3s. Unfortunately, he didn't crack the 40% mark on FGs. Thats just unacceptable and sends him plummeting down the list. Still, on a team that can afford his FG%, he's a great addition. And now a couple quickies... 16. Alvin Williams: Booooooring...but solid. 17. Jamaal Tinsley: Can he put it together this year? He always has around 5 amazing games. Very inconsistent. 18. Marko Jaric: Worth a late pick for his steals, but thats about it. 19. TJ Ford: He's a starter that will get lots of minutes. Potential for good things. Next time...

If you are anything like me, and approach the stat-gathering, injury updates and trade rumors with the same obsession that I do, than your season begins much earlier than the NBA's does. You've already bumped up guys that should excel in their new role (Crawford, Odom, Keon), and conversely lowered the poor souls who's stats can do nothing but suffer this year (new Mavs and Lakers). You hawk-eye the preseason stats and rotations, and though you are skeptical of the importance of these meaningless early October stats, you can't help but be concerned with the poor shooting of Gilbert Arenas and impressed with the improved shooting of Darius Miles...from 3 pt land no less! Anyway, to the point of this website. In my research for this year's draft I noticed a disturbing trend. I noticed that many of the well-known websites I frequented for Fantasy advice just plain dropped the ball on a number of occasions. Not to name names, but Ben Wallace not in the top 15? Ridiculous. So enough with the short introduction. If you're a big fan of Fantasy Basketball or just a little one (or want to win the Office Pool), check back here periodically.

With no time for building team chemistry in the off-season the Nuggets had to do it all on the run, literally. After a hot start the Nuggets, who were known as one of the deepest teams in the NBA, hit the injury bug. Danillo Gallinari and Nene both missed a lot of time. The team goes in a slump and start to fall out of the playoff race. As the trade deadline come the Nuggets make a big move. They trade Nene and aquire and young but verey risky seven foot one center from Washington. After a couple of weeks the team starts to come together with the help of Ty Lawson and they finish off the season with a high note. The Nuggets enter the playoffs as the number 6 seed and now has to play the Los Angeles Lakers, a team that the Denver Nuggets have never beat in a 7 game series in franchise history. With a young and inexperienced team the Nuggets get blown off the court in game 1 and in game 2 it starts to look like we are watching game 1 all over again. The Nuggets fight back but it's not enough to steal game 2. Now we enter game 3 in Denver. The atmosphere was unbelievable. Trust me I was at the game. The Nuggets dominate throughout the game and now everyone starts to believe again. Until game 4. The Nuggets have the lead late and then Kobe goes off. Gallinari flops twice within 45 seconds allowing the Lakers to steal game 4 with two dagger threes. Now the Nuggets are down 3-1. Only eight teams have ever come back from a 3-1 deficit. Game 5 rolls along and the Nuggets come out firing. Javele McGee and Kenneth Faried dominate the Lakers bigs and the Nuggets shock everyone, including myself, and they win game 5. Now the Nuggets go back home to a very pumped up crown and the Nuggets rewarded them. They completly embarased the Lakers. Ty Lawson had one of the best games of his career and now we have a game 7 that no one expected. Back in LA the Nuggets play hard but it's not enough. The Lakers continue their dominance over the Nuggets in the playoffs. So now what? Masai Ujiri, the Nuggets GM, has some very important decisions to make. With all of the moves that he has made in the past 2 years have allowed the Nuggets to have a lot of pieces that can possibly be moved. Masai can do one of two things. He can keep the team together or he can package some players and draft picks to make a big move. I look at the NBA draft and I see two players that can possibly take the Denver Nuggets to the next level. Austin Rivers and Bradey Beal. Lets start with Bradley Beal. He is a 6'4 two guard out of Florida. By many so called "experts" he is project to be a top 5 pick so we can scratch that one because Masai and everyone else knows they would have to give up a fortune to trade up and get him. Now Austin Rivers. Slighty bigger than Bradley Beal but not much. Rivers is projected to be picked between 10 and 15. That's a reasonable place for the Nuggets to trade up. Rivers is a scorer and that is exactly what the Nuggets need. So who can the Nuggets trade to pick Rivers? Me personally, I would package Aaron Affalo, Andre Miller (sign and trade), and one or two more players along with a couple of draft picks. That would give the Nuggets a starting 5 consisting of Ty Lawson, Austin Rivers, Danillo Gallinari, Kenneth Faried, and Javelle McGee. That is a starting 5 that can compete with anyone. If you don't like that scenario then you can try to pick up free agent Ray Allen but he is getting old and can he co-exist with Affalo? I don't know. I would much rather take a chance with a young top prospect than a former superstar that might give you 3 more years. But then again, the Broncos did it.SEO/contentSEO SEO/entrySEOSEOentrySEO SEOidSEOtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-my.post-mySEO/idSEO SEOpublishedSEO2003-05-09T22:30:00.000-07:00SEO/publishedSEO SEOcategory scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='ANDRE MILLER basketball'/SEO SEOtitle type='text'SEOSEO/titleSEO SEOcontent type='html'SEOApparently not many people read this review section, so I better now waste my time making up some elaborate explanations, so here's: Quick Reviews X2: Fuckin awesome. I was just telling some people how there hasn't been a movie out in a while that really made me say "Damn, that was a fucking good ass movie." (LOTR2 might possibly be a contender, but other than that, nothing much). I was starting to wonder if I had started to grow out of most of the movies that are out, but after seeing X2, I was finally able to say again, "Damn, that was a fucking good ass movie." The Rio Seafood Buffet: Pass it up. You would think that having all you can eat lobster would be a good thing, but the lobster at Rio isn't steamed but actually cooked, meaning that it comes out kind of dry and not as good. Their prime rib that we had was a little overdone, and the desserts straight up suck. Their creme brulee tasted more like a mix of jello and custard. Overall, I would say the best thing there might be the lobster tacos, but then that doesn't say much for a 30 dollar buffet. Take my advice and just stick with the Bellagio buffet. And if you really want lobster, then find out when Bellagio is serving lobsters with their buffet and go. Trust me, you will not be disappointed.

The main reason why I lost interest was because they played like they didn't care; like they only need to play good when playoffs come because that’s what really matters. I really hated how they said that "they can turn on their game whenever they need to." I'm so surprised that they got little to no backlash from saying that comment. That comment was just as bad as Randy Moss' "I only play when I want to," and look at how much he got hated on. This season also made me realize how much everyone else besides Shaq and Kobe SUCK. D-Fish is an average at best player, Rick Fox is a joke, Horry is only good during the playoffs, and don't get me started on everyone else (ahem Samaki Walker). But still, even though I don't like them as much as before, I still am rooting for them to win the championships because they're the home team, and I think Kobe and Shaq should deserve a championship for carrying the rest of the team all year. . Side Note and transition thought: I really hate people who think they're the shit for having liked the Lakers since the Magic/Kareem era. No shit you were a fan back then, they were the CHAMPIONS. If you can honestly say you supported a team when they were constantly struggling to hit the .500 mark year after year, then you can boast about being a "true fan." Speaking of "true fans"… Review: Clippers 2002-2003 season I used to think I was a "true fan" of the Clippers because last year, I just loved to see them play and watched most of their games even though they didn't make the playoffs and rarely hit the .500 mark. And I was so pumped when they picked up Andre Miller and was almost positive they would make the playoffs this year since the Lakers were doing so bad. And I was mad pissed when they barely televised any of their games and only got to see them play like once a month. I really considered paying for the NBA league pass so I can watch the Clipper games. But then reality started to kick in, probably after the first third of the season. They just totally lost all appeal for me; their games were not exciting at all, they always blew their lead during the last minutes of the 4th quarter (ahem, Denver Nuggets) there was always someone injured, and don't get me started on Andre Miller. That guy is probably the biggest disappointment next to the ending of Joe Millionaire. But their season made me realize a lot of things. 1. I am not a true fan of the Clippers. 2. Donald Sterling is the worst owner ever. 3. I'm glad that I didn't buy the NBA League Pass. 4. Liking the Clippers and sporting their jerseys is not only so uncool now, its laughable.

I think it sucked. I know how everyone was saying that if it made him happy to go back to basketball, thats all that matters. I choose to think differently, because I really don't care what makes Michael Jordan happy, I care about what makes me happy, and I was not happy at all. First of all, even though I am a fan of Jordan, I am not a fan of the Wizards, so I could never root for the team to win. I mean come on, I could give a rats ass about Richard Hamilton, Popeye Jones or Jahidi White.. And I really didn't want to see Jordan to have average basketball skills, where I would see games where he would be scoreless, barely have any hops, brick shots, etc. Yes, I know he is 40, but no one wants to see any player perform so bad., regardless of their age. And yes, there were times where he did have good games at 40 which is pretty remarkable in itself. But still, its pretty hard to call someone G.O.A.T. when you see him shadowed by the T-Macs and Kobes of todays NBA. Overall, I really didn't like seeing Jordan become "human"; being on a team who didn't make the playoffs, seeing him sit on the bench for more minutes than he got playing time, being barely able to dunk the ball, or missing the final shot of the game. It would have been perfect to have my last memory of MJ making the final shot that wins his team the championship; not seeing him get blown out by the Sixers and not advancing towards the postseason.

Rent it. Typical romantic comedy plot, so predictable. Only thing that made this movie watchable was Mike Myers. All of the scenes with him are fuckin hilarious. Everything else is whatever. Phone Booth - Hop into it. Movie is good, definitely keeps you entertained throughout. But the ending kinda killed it for me, pretty unbelievable and useless. A Man Apart - Hop into it. Movie is good, kinda like your typical drug cartel movie. Only thing wrong was the plot, kinda confusing, jumps around too much without explaining why. Better Luck Tomorrow - Pay full price. I thought the movie was real good, had kind of like a GoodFellas vibe to it. Wasn't too crazy about the ending though.

It sucks. Once I discovered that the whole idea was man made and had nothing to do with changing sun or earth rotations and orbits, I started to get pissed off. I'm now officially starting the movement to have it abolished. I mean seriously, whats the fuckin point? If setting our clocks forward saves energy, crimes, and lives, then why the fuck do we have to set our clocks back an hour when fall comes? It makes sense that the sun should go up at just about 7 and go down at 7, because the majority of people on the Earth's schedules fall into those. Most of the youth have school at that time, and most of the working cats work from 8-5. Yes there are some exceptions, but those people are the MINORITY. I just hate having to adjust my sleep schedule twice a year. For instance, I'm used to sleeping at 11-12 at night, and waking up at 5:45 a.m. I can't sleep or wake up any earlier or later. So, when the clocks are an hour ahead, my body is still used to sleeping at 11-12, when it really is 12-1. So I have to sleep at a later time, and then wake up at an hour earlier than I'm used to. It is fucking bullshit. I'm gonna start a boycott to Daylight Saving Time and come in an hour late for work. Who's gonna join me? Oh yeah, if any of you cats who are reading this have a logical answer to why we have to set our clocks back, please post it so I can stop bitching.

You should be ashamed of yourself for not seeing it in the theatres. But for those of you who have seen it in the theatres, I highly recommend you either rent or buy the DVD, so you can see the "alternate ending." I really thought that they should have left it in, because its such a good way of closing the film. I think that the only flaw of the movie was that the normal ending didn't have any real closure to the whole thing. I don't want to ruin it, but lets just say that it truly ties everything into one segment. And the deleted scenes on the DVD aren't those meaningless scenes that you see on other DVDs that are so obviously bad that you know exactly why the director took them out; you wonder why these scenes weren't left in. And there's a lot of em too.

I had absolutely no interest in just about all of the movies that were up for the major Oscars, so I really didn't give a fuck about who won or not. But for some reason I was able to tune in to see Eminem win an Oscar for best song in a motion picture. Let me set something straight once and for all. If Eminem was black, 8 Mile would have been a straight to video movie and would never in a million years garner all this Oscar bullshit. Now don't get me wrong, I'm as big of an Eminem fan as the next guy, but you KNOW that if he wasn't white, they wouldn't even ENTERTAIN the idea of even NOMINATING his song for an Oscar, let alone winning it. Shit, they wouldn't even invite his ass to the Oscar Ceremony. I know that hip hop is getting such mainstream acceptance these days, but having Eminem win an Oscar is such a slap in the face for all the other black and minority rappers who have come out before him. "Lose Yourself" was a good song, but you know there has had to be a better rap song for a movie before it. His Oscar is simply proof that the sky is the limit if you are white. Now even though I love Eminem as a rapper, I really thought that he should have withdrew his nomination for the Best Song Oscar, so he wouldn't be able to prove the point that I had just made.

Let me tell you that I was very disappointed. I don't know if I saw a bad episode or what, but I did not think any of the skits I saw were funny at all. For those of you that do watch it regularly, the episode I saw was where Dave Chappelle plays "Blackzilla" and spoofs Grand Theft Auto. Although those two sketches were okay, what really made me change the channel was the sketch afterwards where Dave shows a 2 minute documentary of his life. For a whole 2 minutes, all we see is him walking around, saying "What's Up" to people, and doing absolutely nothing funny in particular. I'm not sure if that was the joke of the sketch, but that was just enough for me to switch channels. Bottom Line: I never really thought Dave Chappelle was that funny to begin with, since Robin Hood: Men In Tights and Half-Baked were probably the two worst comedies I have ever seen at the theatres, and his stand-up comedy special was mediocre at best. I'm hoping that I just saw a bad episode, and if I see a different spisode on, I'll give it one more chance.

Ruth's Chris is the best steak you will ever eat at a restaurant. All steaks are cooked right on the money, and the butter sauce that it is marinated in (and still simmering in when it reaches your plate) makes it the shit. I rarely enjoy a steak without steak sauce, but I was more than satisfied with eating a sauce-less steak there. The price is a little high up there, but its still reasonable. If you follow my guidelines below, you can come out spending 40-45 bucks a person and get a salad, an entree, a side order, and dessert. Helpful Hints: Don't get a drink. Their water is probably the best free restaurant waters I have ever had. If you really need to get a salad with your meal, split it with someone. A half order of their salad will do the job and then some. Ask for an extra side of the butter sauce. They'll give you extra sauce added with chopped cilantro to pour over your steak. Get a side order of something with your entree. I dont know about you, but I definitely can't enjoy a steak fully unless there's something like mashed potatoes or vegetables along with it. And one side order is just about enough to split among 4-5 people. And if you say its someone's birthday, they'll give you a free dessert (and not some wussy little cupcake, they'll give you an order of any dessert on their menu, which is big enough to split among 4-5 people). Bottom Line: 4.5 out of 5. No comparison to the historic New Years Eve Bellagio Buffet, but very worthy of 2nd place.

It's always cool to have hometown players on your team. That is one thing that is good about how low-key the baseball draft is--teams usually draft a bunch of players from their local area. Of course, sometimes stupid general managers in all sports trade those hometown players before they become stars (Jeff Bagwell) or release them for no reason whatsoever (Bernie). As for Derek Jeter, I think we are all far too familiar with the media's hyping up of New York players, which is definately more significant than any race-related effect on how players are portrayed. The funny thing is, I just read a great article by Rob Neyer (I think) about how Jeter really isn't even that good anymore. He had a great year in 1999, and his statistics have gradually decreased each year since then to the point where he is just pretty much mediocre now. I'll bet Steinbrenner takes the Yankee captain title away from him after the season if he doesn't get that batting average up. Oh, and another article about the Yankees that made me drool was predicting that Steinbrenner might be ridiculous enough to fire Don Zimmer if the Yankees don't start playing better soon, which would lead to a huge Steinbrenner-Torre feud that may lead to Torre leaving the Yankees (or even being fired) before this season is over! How great would that be? Joe Torre has been one of the only people/things involved with the Yankees that I don't DESPISE, and I can really see that team falling apart soon without him, especially when their old pitching staff wears down. I can definately see the Yankees without Torre becoming a sort of Orioles/Rangers/Mets type team that spends a ton of money but still sucks.

I did get to see the replay and, as a training shrink, it is impossible to stop a reflex reaction like Sammy would have had if he had known that was a cork widow. He did not seem to do anything but hustle down to first base. If he were trying to cheat, he would have given it away in some manner. I believe him. As for Pedro's comments, he is deranged. I'm really starting to like the guy less and less. I respect his right to throw inside and back it up, but if this is the case, he shouldn't hide in the dugout when there's a fight and he should have NOTHING to say about Jaret Wright doing so also. I will use his own line against him: There's no crying in baseball. Apparently, whining is allowed. I think the media has been very fair on the race issue all the time. Willie Mays is widely regarded as the best overall player of all time. No one can stop talking about Jackie Robinson. They had nothing but good things to say about Pedro as he came up. Fernando Valenzuela was a media darling. I don't think it has to do with race and, having attended and endured Brown Fucking University, I'm sick of this PC ass-kissing bullshit. Pedro lost the MVP race because he is a pitcher. Countless others have done the same. Pitchers rarely win for this reason. Someone should check, but I'll bet you Bob Gibson didn't win MVP in his ridiculous year. And I bet Orel Hershiser didn't in 1988. In fact, I think Kirk Gibson did. Pedro lost the Cy Young, probably, because Zito hadn't won it yet and, as Peter Gammons nicely said, his numbers were better in a whole host of categories. Pedro can kiss my white ass. The most valuable player doesn't go on the DL twice a year every year. And he usually gets his team in the playoffs. So what is Pedro complaining about. The media does have issue, however, that I don't think relate to race too much. Much of the media is composed of minorities at this point. The problem is Cal Ripken-types. They choose to glorify some guys and choose to crucify others. It probably has more to do with how the player treats the media. Pedro's not going to get more love now. I think Cal Ripken's achievement is mainly luck and partly stupidity. Either way, I'm not that impressed that it should have been baseball's number one moment when he broke the record -- in some recent countdown. The race thing drives me insane. If someone says I didn't vote for Pedro because the whites have to stay on top, I'm behind him all the way. But Pedro needs to grow up. Is he going to start defending Eddie Murray -- who the media HATED -- because he's black. I doubt it. The media hypes whoever they like...look at Derek Jeter. He gets his ass kissed more than anyone in the game now. He's good. But he's not THAT good. I say this because the media always has its darlings. But they are not at all always white. All we hear about is Kobe this...Jordan that. What about my man Chris Dudley? I'm kidding. If anything, the media is too careful about race. Latrell Sprewell, if he were white, would not have been reinstated so easily because you can't play the race card when you're white. I know there are injustices in the world, but it's about time somebody point out that playing the race card is an injustice when it does not belong. As for the draft, I think it's awesome that the Tribe would take a chance on a guy who wears makeup...and, I think it's cool they have a sandwich round for when you get hungry.

I see no reason not too. Apparently (although I can't watch ESPN highlights so you guys can tell me), when the bat shattered, Sammy just ran off the field casually like he had made a regular out. Don't you think he would have been worried about his bat breaking if he's been using a corked bat on anything close to a regular basis, or even if he realized the bat he was using at the time was corked? I think the fact all the other bats were fine, including all the "famous" bats he used to hit some of his biggest homeruns, is more a sign that he doesn't cork than that he hides it well or MLB covers up for him. It's funny, because alot of latin players like Canseco and Pedro Martinez are saying people (especially the media) are being too hard on him rather than covering up for him. I'm not sure I really agree that the media is being racist on this issue, and Pedro's remarks about Peter Gammons being racist in his Cy Young predictions from last year are ABSURD, but it does seem like the media does a hell of a job of hyping up white players sometimes as "golden boys"--of course the Cal Ripken example comes to mind here. What do you guys think? More importantly, the Indians had another AWESOME draft. This is from Gammons: While Shapiro and scouting director John Mirabelli are open to high school drafts (and might have taken Round Rock, Texas HS left-hander John Danks had he not been snapped up by Texas two picks in front of them), two years in a row they have had the highest-rated player on the Oakland, Toronto and Boston boards fall to them. Last year, it was Stanford right-hander Jeremy Guthrie, who is already in Triple-A (Oakland could not afford him picking six slots in front of the Indians). This year, it was Tulane 1B-OF Michael Aubrey, the consensus best bat in the draft with off-the-chart makeup as well. They got who they wanted with the 18th pick, Ball State OF Brad Snyder, then in the sandwich round selected Adam Miller of McKinley, Texas, their No. 2 high school right-hander. All that on top of two very strong drafts in 2001 and 2002.

And I certainly wouldn't cut off my left nut. Why? Because they are unnecessary. We still will have won a championship without any negative repercussions. However, our continued losing has felt like getting my right one cut off. That said, it would change my outlook on life, which is a big enough change to make in response, don't you think? As for Sosa, I think it is good news that his other bats weren't corked, even if baseball covered it up. Jeff makes the most salient point...corking wouldn't have added any more than 10 or 15 homers to his career, which is nothing. I do think Sammy was smart about it, though, to just have one at a time. And it was clear he's in a slump, so I'm sure it was intentional. In all, we still have Lebron Jomae (oops...ridiculous typo I had to include). I don't think it will tarnish the rep because people believe what they want to. Look at what happened with Albert...people, I think, decided that this was just another aspect of his being a cheating asshole and that was it. The fact is, he and Sammy are better hitters than almost anyone to ever play the game.

From what I've read, corking your bat gives you maybe 1% carry in your ball...so a ball going 400 would go about 404 feet. For a guy like Sammy, do you think that makes that big of a difference? He has so much power anyway, his home runs are going to do what, carry to the 20th row in the bleachers instead of the 18th? Sure, there may be times that the ball that would have originally gone to the wall goes over the fence with a corked bat, but I'm willing to bet that even if he had used a corked bat all of his life, about 10 of his 500+ homers went over because of cork. I do think he intended to use the corked bat in this particular instance ... he was in a slump, and I think he wanted a little edge to get out of it. Even though his other 76 bats weren't corked, I still think it was intentional. Why? Because think about it, if a guy is corking a bat, he knows that if he gets caught with that bat, the league will automatically examine every other one of his bats. He'll only have one corked bat that he uses all the time, and if it breaks and he doesn't get caught, he makes another. This way, he has an out if they catch him, just like Sammy did. There is also the possibility that there is an MLB consipiracy to cover up any cork in the other bats --- the last thing the league needs right now (during this age of roids, the juiced ball, and labor strife), is an international superstar who is as likeable as Sammy Sosa to be tarnished any more than he already has been. They need guys like him to bring the fans back. It's just a theory, but I'm throwing it out there because it's fun.

Also, how about this Sammy Sosa Cork-gate. Do you guys believe him now that 76 other bats were found to be clean? I sort of think he did intend to cheat now, but that he is not a habitual corker. He's been pressing since coming off injury. That does say negative things about him, but maybe does not tarnish the 500 home runs. What do you guys think?

I would not have expected this could be the case, but it is. Hiring Paul Silas, to me, is just another thing to be excited about. I knew we would not get Larry brown, but had heard that Van Gundy was an all but done deal. The fact is, he is an Alonso-Mourning-Leg-Hanging-Twerp. Paul Silas is a class act. He has NEVER failed to take the Hornets to the postseason. He coached them through Bobby Phills' death, as well as a difficult move to New Orleans (Bill Belichick did not do this well in Cleveland). And he is a player favorite. But I never got the impression he was soft. I've always seen him as a strong, classy leader. He's like Lenny Wilkens. When I heard the Van Gundy rumors, I was afraid that the Cavs would make the decision based on how much other teams wanted the coach. I'm glad they did not. Silas is the right man for the job, and I believe they picked him because he had the right mentality to be a mentor to Lebron. As far as Ricky Davis is concerned, he could be awesome if someone will reign him in. I think Lebron might be able to do that, because he has even more skills than Ricky. If not, we'll find someplace to ship him. There's always Portland, who seems intent on a) collecting NBA thugs, and b) turning non-thugs into thugs. I want the Cavs to be good. I want them to win the damn championship. But Paul Silas is the man that can make that happen with class. I like that very much. Tribe looks like they're headed in the right direction too. I still maintain the Browns draft was trashy. I hope Andrew's right about molding these athletes into good players.

And I can definately see him being an excellent mentor for Lebron. I guess these comments just go to show that I am the eternal Cleveland sports optimist. I definately agree with Jeremy's comment about being more excited about a young team on its way up (which explains why I have been following the Indians so closely from afar this season) than an old team on its way down, but I usually look at the bright side in either case because to me sports are supposed to be mostly about enjoying each individual game and providing a little consistency in life. Although being a Cleveland fan means suffering more heartbreaking moments than anywhere else, I think the reason I'm such a huge sports fan is because I would never let it bring me more pain than pleasure.

This is how I envisioned the team playing--gutting it out and playing .500 ball. CC Sabathia looks to be becoming the dominant ace we expect him to be. The other starters have been inconsistant--they have all had their moments pitching great, but they have also had some really bad starts. To me the biggest key in the team's turn around has been the bullpen. David Riske has become one of the league's best setup men, and Danys Baez is finding his groove as closer. We are now winning the close games we were losing in april. Ben Broussard is starting to heat up while Hafner gets some polishing at AAA. Milton Bradley is an absolute beast--he may be a better hitter than Ellis Burks at this point. Omar won us a game the other day by stealing home! And Jody Gerut might be my new favorite player. Browns--Time will tell on this draft. Faine is a near guarantee to be solid, the rest is really up in the air. To me, the draft shows the confidence Butch Davis has in Dave Campo and the defensive system the team is moving to. He wants great athletes that they can mold into great players, not necessarily guys who were stars in college against inferior competition. And Lee Suggs could turn out to be a huge steal down the road. However, what is far more important than this year's draft to the fate of the Browns for this coming season is last year's draft. We saw William Green and Andre Davis develop into solid players last season, not it is time for the defensive players from that draft to step up. If the young linebackers we drafted in the 4/5 rounds last year play as well as the front office thinks that can, we'll be fine. I would also like to see us sign a veteran to put in our secondary (I hear there are a bunch still available who will have to sign for the league minimum) so that we don't have to rely too much on Anthony Henry, who probably isn't ready to be an every down player.

It is truly amazing that all of the sudden the NBA seems potentially exciting again. I actually felt that we had some decent talent this last season, and that we wouldn't have been anywhere near the worst team in the league if we had had a servicable veteran point guard a la Mark Jackson (even though I don't like him very much). In my opinion, it all goes to show that coaching can be far more important in the NBA than I used to think it was. I still think Phil Jackson is ridiculously overrated, and that a team with veteran superstars pretty much only needs a coach who lets them do whatever they want, but with a young team like the Cavs, having a good coach is key. That being said, I feel there is a bigger difference between bad and good coaches than between good and great coaches. We need to make sure we get at least a good coach, and to me that is all about someone who combines Xs and Os with being able to get respect and instill discipline. We won't be getting Brown, who would be an ideal candidate but is probably going to Detroit (who fired Rick Carlisle!), but I for one think Van Gundy would be the next best thing in that regard. I think Silas can get respect from players that like him, but I'm not sure he can discipline as much as our team might need. Let's face it--besides mentoring Lebron, the first task of whoever takes over this team is going to be to control Ricky Davis and make sure he isn't a cancer that ruins this team. I think he will need to go eventually, and hopefully we can deal him to Minnesota (they really like him for some reason), but more likely the new coach is going to have to be tough and show him how things are going to be. I don't want the Cavs to turn into U. of Michigan basketball in the '90s, where they have tons of talent and absolutely no discipline. More to the point, I don't want another John Lucas. With the way NBA players are these days (see Dan's past comments on the subject), any team without a coach who can keep them in line will quickly become (or in the Cavs case remain) a mess. As a back-up plan, I guess we could always go back to the good 'ol Czar of the telestrater and get Mike Fratelo instead! P.S. I'm glad we got Lebron just in time for the new jerseys, because it would be a shame to see kids all over America (and probably even over here in Europe) wearing what the Cavs have been wearing the last few years.

When he became available, I felt the Cavs should try to woo him. It seems that the Houston position is getting all the attention right now, but they're either going to take Larry Brown or Van Gundy (they can have him because I think he is trash...but he is good at hanging onto Alonzo Mournings legs when he's in danger...remember that). If they don't take LaBrown, I think we should get him to coach Lebron. Iverson is totally unbearable to deal with, so he's done well in Philly. But, I think Lebron should be the 2-Guard until he's ready for point. Small forward is where you put NBA remainders...not superstars. That would be just like the Cavs to turn Lebron into Mike Sanders (remember that ugly shot). Name a big name small forward. You can't. They don't exist. I know the idea is to move him in slowly, but Jordan was a 2-guard, Iverson is a 2-guard, and Magic was basically a 2-Guard. Superstars are 2-guards and centers. Occasionally point guards. I think ultimately, we should not be looking to make Lebron into something like Pippen, either. This would be a failure. He needs to be like Jordan. Cleveland fans are too used to getting players and hoping they'll be as good as second best. I don't want that. I want the best. And I'll cry like a baby until we get it. Albert Belle was the best. Bernie Kosar was the best for a few years. Nothing else has ever been that way in Cleveland and I want it. I agree that we should not ruin Lebron's confidence, but really, what are the chances of that? The main thing is to get a coach in there who will teach him the game and teach him to DOMINATE. Not just be good. Kwame Brown failed, I suspect, not because of Jordan. But because he's probably not mentally tough enough to be the best. Jordan tests people like that. And when they respond, they win. I bet Kwame Brown is just too lazy and too busy smoking dope to care (but I don't know this for a fact at all...it's just his generation's way). Personally, I think Paul Silas has it right...he wants to be like a father to Lebron. But LaBrown would be too and I think his lesson with Iverson would make things work for us in Cleveland.

He's proven that he can get it done in the most hostile environment possible, and with a superstar player that is probably one of the hardest people to manage in the game today. From what I heard, LeBron will have quite a sizeable entourage himself, and he already refers to himself in the third person (but then again, what athlete doesn't) -- Jeff Ngo thinks that Larry Brown will be able to handle him and his peeps, and will be able to mold a championship-caliber team. As far as where I see LeBron playing, I think small forward is the right choice...I know the Cavs don't have a very good PG situation right now, but thrusting an 18-year-old, no matter how talented he is, into that position is just asking for trouble. He is guaranteed to have a few bad games in the beginning, and we don't want the team and especially himself to lose confidence about his ability (look what MJ did to Kwame Brown). Maybe even play him at the 2 guard and move Ricky Davis to the small forward position. With the young talent that the Cavs will have next year (James, Davis, Miles, Wagner, Boozer, Ilgauskas), the most important thing for them will be to gel as a team and establish a chemistry a la the Bulls of the 90s. Get rid of all the egos (considerable ones at that) and not care who scores as long as they score. I think bringing in Brown will do that, because he'll probably start by getting rid of Ricky Davis and getting a couple of good (not great) players who care more about winning than their stat line. I was in Cleveland this weekend and the place was buzzing. Everyone, including 70 year-old Chinese women, were talking about LeBron and what he means to the city. I can't wait for the season to start. Oh wait, the current season hasn't ended. Shit.

Because with the Indians for example, we saw the slow evolution to overpowering success in 1995. Bernie Kosar was a hometown hero come home, but he sort of engineered it (rather than the crazy luck) and, as great as he was, 1 player does not have the same impact in football--even the QB. In any case, the Browns did not, as you say Dan, need saving. I think we may not get Van Gundy--he's reportedly interested in the Houston job. I agree-I don't like him, and he seems like a boring retread. I heard Larry Brown may enter the picture. What do you think about that? I've always like Paul Silas. The more I think of it, the more I think (hope) that LeBron can be a star in the mold of Magic Johnson. He's a guy who is pass-first and can play 4 positions. We may use him as a point guard or a "point foward" (think Scottie Pippen). Personally, I'd like to see us play him at small forward to break in with a veteran point guard brought in. It's great that the Cavs now have a purpose! Imagine that.

I'm not saying that I know Lebron will be as great as we all hope. But I agree that he has even peaked my interest, which was at an all time low, in the NBA. The fact is, Cleveland sports teams define whether or not I am interested. Only NCAA basketball transcends this. So the NBA has just sucked for ten years. Additionally, recent events have made me feel better about sports...the Yankees losing for two straight years (including heartbreak to the D-Backs)...the Angels winning the World Series (like when I realized that the Chargers can go to the Super Bowl)...and the Lakers losing this year. The strange thing is, I have always had a sense that these miracles cannot happen for Cleveland. Never have, never will. But getting Lebron James, just at the point when I thought they might even fold our team, feels like one of these moments. Germ is right...the '95 Indians and Bernie Kosar are the only things that even compare. It's nice to finally have one of these things occur in basketball. Now the Cavs management will really be put to the test...there's really no excuse for messing this up. But I could see them finding a way. Meanwhile, I'll put a little bit of faith in them that even they couldn't screw this up...I mean, we already are selling out next season's tickets. I hope we get Paul Silas, because I hate Van Gundy. I'll deal with it if I have to, of course...and maybe even grow to feel like I did about Dave Justice. Finally...the wine and gold jerseys are, as Jim Chones would say, just what the doctor ordered. And so is Lebron.

This really saves the Cavs. As Jeff said, he brings instant sellouts, big name coaches, even free agents. While he alone may not = victory, in the NBA it only takes one great player and a few good ones to contend and this increases our ability to attract good players. On the more serious note here about the attraction of Cleveland sports, I have many thoughts. Long and boring thoughts. But, in short, let me say: A) There is something almost spiritual about the pain of losing, the heartache, the near misses. I identify with the not always quite achieving what I want, but loving it anyways. It is about unconditional love. Red Sox fans don't have it--they have unconditional hate. Yankees fans certainly don't have it-- they love the winning. B) I would LOVE to win a championship, but I don't need that to validate my fanhood. What I do need, however, is for the teams to stay interested and I like them to be moving in the right direction. I prefer the rebuilding Indians to the underachieving Indians on the way down. I like feeling good about being 10-9 in May after such a rough start and with a young team. I like watching the Browns gel, though the backward steps this offseason kill me. I love seeing the Cavs with an interesting future. C) On Danny Ratner's point about the management--> I agree that the Browns draft was crazy. It'll either be crazy-good or crazy-bad. I don't like that because if you look at teams like the Steelers and now, even, the Ravens, they play the draft the same way every year and consistently restock talent to playoff levels. However, I think the Tribe has done things the right way. We are constrained by the market, etc. However, aside from Lawton and Gutierrez, which resulted from a misfired attempt to rebuild and contend at once, Shapiro I think has made excellent moves. I am excited about players at almost every position. And I like that we are striving not justr to be good, but great. In the end, it was a fluke that the '95 Indians didn't get a ring. That was bad luck. But we loved their greatness. I want that again. Finally, the Cavs are terribly managed. They lucked out. Now they really can ride this to contention. I think this does change a bunch about them. D) We have the beautiful Jake. It's great, even losing now. The Tribe will never be as bad as they were because of that stadium. E) Finally, I think I am hopelessly entwined with this Cleveland sports thing. I don't want to get out, for certain, but I think I couldn't get out if I tried.

While it's way too early to speculate on how a high school player is going to improve the play of our dreadful team, this is huge for our team as it is going to drive thousands to the games every night, big name coaches will want a chance to work with James, players will want to play for us, and we haven't had any good luck in hoops since the 86 draft.

TVE sigue teniendo una asignatura pendiente en cuanto a la promoción de sus contenidos, tanto en los telediarios de La 1, como el anuncio de las retransmisiones en Prime Time. En este sentido la ausencia de anuncios no ha repercutido en la promoción del noble arte de la canasta. También pienso que desde la asociación de clubes se debería dar un paso más hacia la difusión sin límite de los contenidos multimedia, aunque creo que su nivel de afectación sobre la audiencia de un partido no es comparable. Ahora bien, no todo el problema reside en la divulgación si los actores no ayudan a que los contenidos tengan un mínimo de calidad exigible. Cuántas veces hemos escuchado aquello de "para qué voy a ver la tele si no echan nada bueno..."
Son resultados no de pretemporada sino de un campeonato más que rodado que presume de contar con algunos de los mejore equipos del Viejo Continente. Por citar el caso que a mí me parece más sangrante -y que más me duele- es la quinta vez en 15 partidos que el Barça se queda en 60 y pocos puntos y la segunda en la que se repite el pírrico 65-49 en el Palau. La anterior 'víctima defensiva' fue el Gran Canaria 2014. El cronista de Eporst 3, Jordi Robirosa, clamaba al cielo en la retransmisión del pasado domingo en la que el Barça y el Lucentum competían por dar una peor imagen. En casos como éste -y son muchos esta temporada y afectan a un gran número de equipos- nada puede hacer por el baloncesto la mejor de las retransmisiones y una difusión perfecta. ¿Supone esto un retorno a la metodología rácana? ¿ A la ley del máximo esfuerzo defensivo y del mínimo ofensivo? O simplemente es que no hay tanta calidad como pensamos los que nos dejamos sin huellas dactilares, escribiendo siempre bien del baloncesto. Esta nueva situación tal vez exija una revisión conjunta.

El malo, para Pistoia, fue su jugador Fiorello Toppo, nacido en Eritrea y criado en Roma, y todo un histórico de la bella localidad toscana. Los pasos de 'infantil' cometidos cuando empataban a 87, a falta de 17 segundos fueron el borrón a un enorme partido de baloncesto. Al final, triunfo para Forli, con tiros libres de Borsato y Trapani -otro novato- sin que los últimos triples de Hardy devolvieran el partido a la épica anterior a aquellos 17 segundos. Otra nota negativa -desafortunada- fue la lesión de ligamento cruzado del bueno de Donte Mathis, que se perderá toda la temporada. Legadue sigue enamorando, y más con partidos como éste.

En este liga, cuando cometes un error tienes que esperar cinco o seis años para volver a tener otra oportunidad". O ha madurado, o esconde algo o realmente deja de insistir por Carmelo Anthony. El oligarca ruso Mikhail Prokhorov www.matrixar.com="http://www.solobasket.com/contenidos/otro/capitulo/culebron/carmelo/anthony/aparecio/despechado/c-26074.html">dio por zanjadas las negociaciones con los Nuggets para adquirir a Carmelo Anthony. Asi pues, Derrick Favors -incognitísima total- o Devin Harris -qué bueno fue el curso 2008-09- se quedan de momento en New Jersey. Lo propio hace Melo, quien no quería irse ni en pintura a los Nets y de momento se quedará ayudando a los Nuggets mientras escucha cantos de sirena desde Chicago: Rose, Melo, Boozer....pero seguramente sin Noah.. Dice el ex propietario del CSKA que el precio era muy caro y que prefiere apostar por la "cantera". Hablar de draft y Nets es un pelín arriesgado: Derrick Favors, Terrence Williams, Sean Williams, Antoine Wright, Viktor Khryapa, Zoran Planinic, Eddie Griffin, Ed O'Bannon, Yinka Dare...son algunos de los grandes 'aciertos' de los últimos años elegidos en posiciones capitales. Los que han sobresalido de la medianía como Derrick Coleman, Kenny Anderson, Kenyon Martin o Brook López -grande el salto que hemos dado para encontrar alguien importante vía draft- han estado repletos de pegas, sobre todo los dos primeros. En cuanto a López, su aburrimiento empieza a pasarle factura. Algunos apuntan a que Kirilenko está en la recámara de cara al próximo curso aunque el ruso se remite a las excelencias de Utah, que también le han "bienpagao". En unos días volverán a revolverse las piezas de oportunidades en este mercadillo persa. Carmelo debes seguir siendo el protagonista, pero si nadie ofrece lo imposible que nadie se extrañe si lo seguimos viendo acabar el curso en Colorado. Knicks y Bulls, al acecho por si hay un momento de debilidad en Denver.

Los Cavaliers nos obsequiaron con un marcador de los que últimamente estamos acostumbrados a ver -tristemente- en ACB. ¿Los Lakers los dejaron en 57 o fueron incapaces de llegar a los 60? Más bien lo segundo. Con Jamison y Mo desmotivados, con un Hickson que debe desear ser traspasado ya, con el adiós de Varejao a la temporada....Los Cavaliers post LeBron se han convertido en un obra que cabe demoler y reconstruir con nuevos pilares. Y que un ex Laker, Byron Scott, haya sufrido tal sopapo, debe ser durísimo. Seguro que las estrellas de los Lakers hubieran preferido cualquier otro equipo. Me creo las palabras de Bryant.

En la temporada de los cambios. En la previa a un posible lockout. El 24 de febrero a las 15:00 h (Costa Este) se cierra el mercadillo -gran mercado central en este curso- de los traspasos. Queda poco para el deadline y necesita reactivarse la operación Caramelo. Da igual que él prefiera Bulls o Knicks. ¿Se imaginan el trío Rose-Anthony-Boozer? El jugador pertenece a la franquicia y ésta hara lo que le venga en gana con él -suponemos que respetando estrictamente la legalidad. Y si el jovenzuelo no se muestra amigable, peor para él. Los Nets post Perestroika vuelven a la carga después de fracasar en el mercado veraniego. El ex all star Harris o el fiasco -momentaneo- Favors son los diamantes a intercambiar con Troy Murphy, recién llegado y natal de NJ, de regalo. Young Gun por diamantes, suena a film con fondo terrorista centrado en alguna república del África Negra. Por si acaso intentan convencer a los Pistons, a ver si pican, y favorecen al traslado de la díscola estrella que de momento dice no saber qué es lo que quiere. Los Nuggets parece que quieren colocar a Harrington, con contrato para largo. Un venido a menos Billups -con una team option para el próximo curso- quiere retirarse en Denver, su casa. Si falla la opción Nets el radar de los rumores apunta a que el francés Batum es bien querido ¡¡¡¡ ¿? ¿? !!! por los Nuggets y la locura nos intenta vender que Denver sueña con amamantar a Blake Griffin. Uno, que no intenta naufragar en los rios del rumor prefiere esperar tranquilamente y divertirse con mil y una cábalas.

Más todavía si hubiera entrado el segundo, desde el medio campo.

Sabréis -parezco de la Morena- que el Regal nunca jugó cómodo, estuvo muy errático en el tiro y que el cuadro madridista aguantó 33 minutos con una buena defensa, cerrando muy bien el rebote, aunque tampoco anduvo demasiado fino en el ataque. Los héroes de la noche fueron Mickeal (8 puntos consecutivos a partir del minuto 33) y Ndong, con también un último cuarto impresionante en puntos y tapones. De todo ello ya he hablado en lawww.matrixar.com="http://basketme.com/2.0/noticia.php?id=38117"> crónica que podéis leer en basketme.com. Ahora quiero hablaros de contundencia y espectáculo y ahí un gallego de Chantada tiene un gran protagonismo. Fran Vázquez no jugó su mejor partido como blaugrana pero tuvo dos acciones durante el partido que casi hacen reventar el Palau. Me hubiera gustado que un sonómetro hubiera medido los decibelios en las dos acciones de Fran, una de ellas, un tremendo mate en el segundo cuarto que acabó en 2+1. Si hay alguien que habita más arriba del aro ese es astronauta Vázquez. Una lástima que Ricky tuviera uno de sus partidos más flojos como blaugrana para no disfrutar de un par o tres de alley hoops de escándalo.

Ha dejado fuera en segunda ronda a Kansas, favorita unánime (también para Obama, que suele apostar sobre seguro) para la "expertología" mundial. También cayó Vilanova (Fisher, Stokes, Reynolds) ante una Saint Mary donde Omar Samhan volvió a arrasar. La modesta Cornell (Ivy League) de Ryan Wittman (hijo del clásico de los Hawks, Randy) destrozó a un rival mayor como es Wisconsin y Xavier (Love & Crawford) sigue gustándose... Aguantan Syracuse, West Virginia, Duke y Kansas State, gran beneficiada del Selection Sunday, y Evan Turner parece tan despierta...

Se "casca" para que 45 puntos Brigham Young -conocida entre nosotros como una de las universidades mormónicas por excelencia- pase ronda en la Mountain West Conference a costa de Texas Christian University. No es ésta su mejor anotación ya que esta temporada anotó 49 puntos contra Arizona. No tuvo un día bueno en el tiro (2/10 en triples), todo lo contrario que contra los Wildcats (9/13) pero forzó muchísimas personales que le llevaron a anotar 23 de 24 tiros libres. Está en su año junior y promedia 20 por partido porque de vez en cuando tiene pájaras pero puede ser un jugador interesante en ciertas ligas europeas que gustan de bases anotadores. Lee Cummard o Trent Plaisted son sus últimas joyas y por la ACB todavía corretea Travis Hansen...Fredette agotará su ciclo universitario (supongo). Veremos si está preparado para la vida real...

Sin embargo, desde el terrific trio de los Warriors (Hardaway, Richmond, Mullin) y la revolución del I Belive ante los Mavericks hace tres temporadas, el prestigio de Nellie había quedado en entredicho. Sobre todo porque la fórmula del ataque sin control de los Warriors no acaba de funcionar y porque algunos de sus grandes perlas, como Anthony Randolph (lesionado todavía) dan la sensación de que serían mucho mejores en otros equipos. Aún así, cabe reconocer que de vez en cuando consigue sorprender gratamente cuando rescata a algún jugador del anonimato y le trasforma en "estrella" aunque sea por unos pocos partidos. Lo hizo con Kelenna Azubuike, aunque este provenía de una universidad con pedigree como Kentucky y poco despúes lo ha hecho con CJ Watson o Anthony Morrow. Éste último ya se ha convertido en uno de los grandes artilleros de la NBA. Incluso tuvo que ver, y mucho, con el despegue de Monta Ellis en su año sophomore. Ahora le ha tocado el turno a Reggie Williams. La plaga de lesiones que sacude a la franquicia del Estado Dorado obliga en muchas ocasiones a buscar soluciones donde pocos lo hacen. Williams acabó su año senior en Virginia Military con una media de 27.8 puntos por partido. Un año antes, su promedio fue de 28.1 y nunca ha bajado de los 15 de media. Estamos, pues, ante un anotador compulsivo pero también un gran reboteador (9.6 en su año senior). Es pues un alero bajo, correcaminos que le va como anillo al dedo al modus operandi de los Warriors. Llega de la D-League -cómo no-, de los Sioux Falls Skyforce, donde promediaba 26.4 puntos, 5 rebotes y 3 asistencias por encuentro. Ante los Hornets, en su quinto partido como Warrior, se fue hasta los 28 puntos, 6 asistencias, 2 robos y 1 tapón. Tal vez no logre anotar tanto o tenga que dejar el roster cuando vuelvan los lesionados pero su ejemplo confirma que Nelson tiene una especial debilidad para sacar petróleo de los pequeños. Eso sí, de Nellie dependerá el que Williams pueda conseguir un estatus como un correcto jugador NBA. Ya sabemos también que tiene la misma facilidad para subir a un jugador que para desterrarlo al ostracismo.

Kobe Bryant, con inflamación de estómago, se volvía a dejar la piel para intentar ganar a sus rivales en la pasada final, los Magic. Pau Gasol volvía a estar en dobles figuras pero...¿y el resto? Mientras la prensa glorifica a Matt Barnes (excelso partido) como abanderado de los valores defensivos y de compromiso, Ron Artest intentaba intimidar con este look a lo Rodman en la noche de los Oscars (tal vez reclame un papel para una nueva edición de la fracasada Avatar). Poco a poco los Magic van engrasando la maquinaria mientras que el compromiso de los Lakers es cosa de dos en la mayoría de partidos. Bynum, Artest, Odom y la cuadrilla de los minutos de la basura deberían hacer un ejercicio de reflexión ¿Es lo que veremos de aquí a final de temporada? No me creo que a estas alturas nadie juegue al despiste. Fotos AP.

Junto a OJ Mayo formaron el tándem más poderoso del país pero todo se torció por culpa de las lesiones. La más grave le llegaría en Kansas State, en su año freshman. Ligamentos cruzados, ya se sabe. Era una reproducción de la que ya sufrió en el 2003. En su año sophomore disfrutó de un alivio y formó junto a Beasley otra gran pareja, en esta ocasión en la universidad. El talento del chaval era evidente y se presumía una elección alta en el draft del 2008 pero de nuevo las lesiones llamaron a su puerta. Fue en un workout con los Warriors. Su rodilla sufrió un tercer ataque lo que le relegó a la posición número 47 del draft. Los Wizards lo seleccionaron para luego traspasarlo a los Celtics. Tras pasar más tiempo en la D-Legue que en la NBA formó parte del trade que envió a Nate Robinson a Boston. Anoche, ante los Raptors, Bill Walker jugaba su primer partido como titular en la NBA y lograba su tope personal con 22 puntos. Batía por segunda noche consecutiva su mejor registro (21 en el partido anterior) y reclamaba ante los micrófonos una oportunidad. ¿Estamos ante un nuevo héroe para el Madison? ¿Será el nuevo enemigo para los ultras españoles? Desde que la nueva hornada de españoles entró en la NBA, mucho se ha escrito sobre los enemigos de la patria. Las manías de McMillan con Sergio y Rudy, que si Mike James, TJ Ford y ahora Jarrett Jack no le llegan ni a la suela del zapato a Calderón, que si los medios americanos son “tontos” por tildar a Pau de blando… Sergio Rodríguez ha centrado el debate en los últimos años. Entre los detractores, los argumentos de que es un base que puede venir bien para un momento determinado de un partido y que sí, que el chico tiene arte pero poco más. Los defensores a ultranza ven artimañas ocultas para impedir la progresión del canario y le colocan como máximo responsable del campeonato mundial conseguido en Japón. Sergio llegaba a la NBA después de protagonizar un buen año en Estudiantes. La exigencia física y defensiva que requiere la competición -y no sólo por tener un entrenador respetuoso con los sistemas defensivos- pronto pasaron factura en el ex estudiantil. A no ser que seas un super talento, claro. Sergio ofreció buenas actuaciones con cuentagotas, disputando muchos o pocos minutos. Ha jugado con tres entrenadores distintos. Uno, más riguroso con la defensa, otro, Westphal, con un perfil más atacante pero ordenado, y otro, D’Antoni, con el caos por sistema. Cuando se mudó a Sacramento había grandes esperanzas pero su juego pronto las diluyó. Su aterrizaje en New York fue mucho mejor, gozando de muchos minutos y jugando de titular…Pero los números no cuadraban. ¿Si en Portland era capaz de repartir 7 asistencias en 10 minutos por qué ahora no pasa de 5 en 30? Conclusión. Los compañeros son una banda. Curiosamente, cuando se confirma su traspaso a la Gran Manzana, se habla de lo provechoso que puede ser para el jugador compartir minutos con Lee, Harrington, Gallinari, Chandler…Se podía salir como base pasador…Pero las derrotas y su escaso impacto han acabado ya por relegarle al banquillo ante la irrupción de Bill Walker, aquella megaestrella de instituto con las rodillas de cristal. Y no descarto que Toney Douglas le vaya comiendo minutos o que D’Antoni utilice más a House de base si el experimento funciona más o menos bien (hablamos de 3 victorias cada 10 partidos, por ejemplo). ¿Se acabaría la aventura para Sergio? ¿Todos, incluido el jugador, deben de pensar en que lo mejor, tal vez, es reordenar su carrera y retornar a sus orígenes? ¿O es mejor que siga y le buscamos nuevos enemigos? D’Antoni y Walker pueden ser los primeros… SEO/contentSEO SEO/entrySEOSEOentrySEO SEOidSEOtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-my.post-mySEO/idSEO SEOpublishedSEO2010-02-23T13:40:00.007+01:00SEO/publishedSEO SEOcategory scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='ANDRE MILLER basketball'/SEO SEOtitle type='text'SEO20 rebotes bien merecen créditoSEO/titleSEO SEOcontent type='html'SEOwww.matrixar.com style="display: block; margin: 0px auto 10px; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 343px; height: 202px;" src="http://www.matrixar.com/_fQO96dnj5h8/S4PPbq6rUpI/AAAAAAAABvc/xf69bm-ruq0/s320/Cleveland%2BCavaliers%2Bv%2BWashington%2BWizards%2BGame%2B-jut4RBgZaMl.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5441420849077506706" border="0" /> Caron Butler supone el principal atractivo de los renovados Mavericks pero hay un grandullón que empieza a destacar desde la pintura. Tal vez sea ésta la última oportunidad para el grandullón Brendan Haywood. Tras sus buenas maneras en la temporada 01-02, la de su debut en la NBA, siempre se ha esperado más de él. Su calidad como pívot defensivo ha ido consolidándose a lo largo de esos largos –valga la redundancia- años pasados en los Wizards pero su intermitencia y pobre participación en ataque no han sido buenos compañeros de trabajo. En su favor hay que decir que si tienes como compañeros a Jamison, Butler y Arenas, poco margen ofensivo te queda. El traspaso a los Mavericks ha sido una bendición para el jugador. Más que su recuperación física tras la grave lesión sufrida la temporada pasada. La pasada madrugada del 22 de febrero conseguía capturar 20 rebotes por segunda vez en esta temporada, por segunda vez en su carrera. Ni en sus cuatro años en North Carolina, donde podía “abusar” más de su corpulencia, consiguió la doble doble figura en rebotes. En los Mavericks lo ha conseguido en su tercer partido. La llegada de Haywood culmina una tradición texana de buenos pívots defensivos. En los 80 fue James Donaldson y tras un periodo caótico de muchos años baldíos en el centro (Sean Rocks, Donald Hodge, Shawn Bradley, Eric Montross... y otros exotismos) llegó Dampier de desde California. Ahora aterriza Haywood, quien está sacando petróleo de los minutos que le deja la lesión de Dampier. Cuando estén los dos, formarán una gran muralla interior, bien alternándose o bien integrando una dupla de siete pies que se complementa con otro ocho mil, el de Nowitzki. Cabe pensar que la motivación que encuentra en Dallas es totalmente diferente a la experimentada en la mayoría de temporadas como profesional. Hay jugadores que se estancan por falta de alicientes. Aquí los va a encontrar todos...y si se duerme ahí está Cuban para "atizarle". Los Mavericks han perdido a un jugador -Howard- que parecía agotado en este proyecto y lo reemplazan por dos jugadores, Butler y Haywood, muy válidos para complicar la vida a unos Lakers que podrían llegar muy justos físicamente a los playoffs. De momento se adjudican por méritos propios la plaza de aspirante oficial a destronar a los glamurosos californianos.

Pero el gran genio de El Masnou, formado en la impresionante cantera de la Penya, ha vuelto a dominar el partido como ha querido. No ha sido una Copa perfecta. Tuvo momentos malos ante Cajasol y Pamesa pero el equipo estuvo mejor cuando él dominó. Ante el Real Madrid ha estado impresionante. Ni Jarics, ni Prigionis, ni Llulls...La triple R lo ha vuelto a hacer. Felicidades.

Þess vegna ætla ég að fara yfit riðlana, liðin og spá hvernig fer. Vonandi nennið þið að lesa þetta. (Spá ESPN er fengin úr www.matrixar.com="http://www.visir.is">DV) Í dag er Vesturdeildin einfaldlega miklu sterkari en Austrið. Þar eru tvö bestu lið deildarinnar, Sacramento og LA Lakers, þar er Shaq, Kobe, Duncan, Dirk Nowitzki, Gary Payton, Kevin Garnett, www.matrixar.com="http://www.alledegodenavnevaroptaget.dk/gallery/animals/bigimages/20.jpg">Peja Stojakovic, (Yao Ming???) og núna stoðsendinga kóngur deildarinnar, Andre Miller. Fyrirfram myndi maður spá sigri Sacramento eða LA en allt getur gerst, eins og sannaðist hjá New Jersey í fyrra. MIDWEST DIVISION - MIÐVESTURRIÐILL Það er nokkuð öruggt að San Antonio Spurs og Dallas Mavericks munu ráða lögum og lofum í Miðvesturriðlinum í vetur. Dallas er búið að byggja upp stórskemmtilegt lið með snillingunum Michael Finlley og Steve Nash og síðan besta leikmanninum frá Evrópu í dag, Dirk Nowitzki. Hann brilleraði á HM í sumar og var valinn MVP þar og er einn fjölhæfasti leikmaður deildarinnar. Dallas er eitt besta sóknarlið deildarinnar og ef að vörnin er komin í lag eiga þeir góða möguleika að standa í hárinu á Lakers og Sacramento. San Antonio byggir hinsvegar allt upp á einum leikmanni, Tim Duncan. Hann leiddi þá til sigurs í riðlinum í fyrra og var valinn MVP. En núna tel ég að það sé einfaldlega ekki nóg að hafa hann. The Admiral erorðinn gamall og þótt hann muni eflaust gera eitthvað dugar það ekki til. Franski pointarinn Tony Parker átti gott season í fyrra og er mjög efnilegur en er ekki neinn afburða skorari og það er eitthvað sem vantar. Steve Smith mun örrruglega setja nokkrar (3ja stiga) körfur en hann er ekki neinn afburða leikmaður eins og þegar hann var hjá Atlanta. Í baráttunni um 3. og 4. sætið verða líklegast Minnesota og Houston. Minnesota hefur gengið illa í playoffs seinustu ár en ég hugsa að þeir muni eiga ágætt tímabil þetta árið. Kevin Garnett er orðinn frábær alhliða leikmaður og er allt í öllu hjá þeim, því að Terrell Brandon er meiddur og spilar lílegast ekkert þetta ár. Houston áttu lélegt ár í fyrra enda var Steve Francis sá eini sem gat eitthvað þá, en þeir urðu heppnir og fengu fyrsta valrétt í nýliðavalinu. Þar fengu þeir kínverska turninn Yao Ming. Ef hann mun ná að fóta sig í NBA þá eiga þeir fína möguleika að komast í playoffs. Elliheimilið Utah Jazz, með þá John Stockton og Karl Malone held ég að sé orðið einum of þreytt fyrir úrslitakeppni, þrátt fyrir að þeir hafi komist þangað seinustu 19 árin. Memphis hefur gott byrjunarlið á pappírnum en það vantar samtöðu. Það virðist skipta Jason "The White Chocolate" Williams meira máli að gefa sendingu fyrir aftan bak heldur en að leiða liðið til sigurs. Þegar hann verður þroskaðari mun hann hinsvegar verða örugglega mjög góður pointari. Ef að Spánverjinn öflugi mun eiga gott ár þá gætu þeir samt alveg staðið í barráttu við Houston um 4ða sætið. Síðan er það Denver Nuggets sem að mun miðað við leikmannahópinn núna prýða sjöunda og seinasta sætið í riðlinum. Mín spá: Spá ESPN: 1. Dallas Mavericks 1. Dallas Mavericks 2. San Antonio Spurs 2. San Antonio Spurs 3. Minnesota Timberwolves 3. Minnesota Timberwolves 4. Houston Rockets 4. Utah Jazz 5. Memphis Grizzlies 5. Houston Rockets 6. Utah Jazz 6. Memphis Grizzlies 7. Denver Nuggets 7. Denver Nuggets PACIFIC DIVISION - KYRRAHAFSRIÐILL Þökk sé einu liði hefur Kyrrahafsriðillinn verið langsterkasti riðillinn seinustu fjögur árin. Eins og allir vita er liðið LA Lakers. Með Shaq, Kobe og Phil Jackson hafa þeir verið óstöðvandi og unnið þrjú seinustu skiptin og geta orðið fyrstir í 36 ár til að vinna NBA fjögur ár í röð. Reyndar er Shaq ennþá meiddur í stóru tánni en það mun (því miður) lagast og hann mun koma sterkur til leiks. Ennfremur hefur Kobe bætt á sig sjö kílóum af vöðvum og það mun verða erfitt að stoppa þá í vetur. Þótt ég hati Lakers og sérstaklega Kobe og Robert Horry sem alltaf þarf að eyðileggja allt þá verð ég að spá þeim sigri í riðlinum, það er að segja ef að Shaq og Kober verða heilir. Sacramento er komið með ótrúlega öflugt lið og það er eina liðið sem á möguleika að stoppa Shaq og co. Chris Webber hefur alltaf verið góður leikmaður, Peja er orðin besta skytta deildarinnar, og Mike Bibby hefur þróaðist ótrúlega mikið sem leikmaður á seinasta tímabili. Síðan er Vlade Divac, þótt han sé orðinn gamall að spila sín bestu tímabil. Þeir voru sekóndubrotum því að vinna Lakers og það mun örugglega verða mikil barrátta á milli þeirra núna. Þeir eru með eitt skemmtilegasta liðið og vonandi verða margir leikir sýndir með þeim í vetur. Með Andre Miller innanborðs ætti Clippers að geta gert skemmtilega hluti í vetur en þeir eru með ungt og efnilegt lið sem mun verða í baráttunni um meistaratitil eftir nokkur ár ef að svona heldur áfram. Samt mun byrjunin verða erfið því að meirihluti byrjunarliðsins, þeir Lamar Odom, Michael Olowokandi og Elton Brand eru allir meiddir eða að stíga upp úr meiðslum. Portland, Seattle og Phoenix munu líklegast vera í barráttunni um sæti í úrslitakeppninni, eða fjórða sætið og ég spái Phoenix Suns því sæti. Þeir eru með tvo snillinga, þá Shawn Marion og Stephon Marbury, sem að í fyrra sáu um tilþrifin fyrir liðið í fyrra en unnu ekki leikina. Þeir hafa núna (vonandi) þroskast og með þá tvo og síðan Penny Hardaway sem sjötta mann ættu þeir að geta náð einhverjum árangri. Portland TrailBlazers er hrúga af góðum leikmönnum sem kunna ekki að spila saman. Þeir eru með hinn gamalreynda Scottie Pippen, þriggja stiga skyttuna Bonzi Wells, rugludallinn Rasheed Wallace sem fékk flestar tæknivillur í fyrra og hinn 39 ára Arvydas Sabonis en samt virðist eitthvað klikka hjá þeim. Seattle er eitt af þessum eins manns liðum, Gary Payton er allt hjá þeim, en það dugar ekki og þeir munu ekki ná árangri þetta árið. Golden State Warriors er samansafn af unglingum og þeir munu ekki frekar en seinustu ár ná góðum árangri enda er besti maðurinn þeirra farinn, hann Larry Hughes. Mín spá: Spá ESPN: 1. LA Lakers 1. Sacramento Kings 2. Sacramento Kings 2. LA Lakers 3. LA Clippers 3. LA Clippers 4. Phoenix Suns 4. Portland TrailBlazers 5. Portland TrailBlazers 5. Seattle Supersonics 6. Seattle Supersonics 6. Phoenix Suns 7. Golden State Warriors 7. Golden State Warriors Síðan Chicago Bulls var á blómaskeiði sínu hefur Austrið verið miklu lakara en Vestrið. Það hefur samt oft verið mikil barátta og flott tilþrif þar og ég hef alltaf haldið með þeim í stjörnuleiknum, enda er minn maður, Tracy McGrady þar. Samt eiga þeir engan möguleika í risana í Sacramento og Lakers. ATLANTIC DIVISION - ATLANTSHAFSRIÐILLINN Atlantshafsriðillinn er sá skemmtilegasti að mínu mati, þar eru sekmmtileg lið og mikil barátta og hann ætlar að verða þannig líka í vetur. New Jersey kom öllum á óvart í fyrra með því að komast í úrslitaleikinn. Það var mest einum leikmanni að þakka, honum Jason Kidd, sem átti frábært ár og mörgum fannst að hann ætti að vera valinn MVP. Núna eru þeir búnir að styrkja liðið með því að fá Dikembe Mutombo í staðin fyrir þá Keith van Horn og Todd MacCulloch og eru þannig betur í stakk búnir til að kljást við Shaq. Síðan eru þeir líka komnir með Rodney Rogers frá Boston sem mun gera eitthvað gagn. Með Jason Kidd í fararbroddi munu þeir líklegast vinna Austurdeildina Vonandi verð ég ekki of óhlutlaus núna en Orlando er mitt uppáhalds lið og ég spái þeim öðru sæti. Tracy McGrady hefur þroskast ótrúlega og leiddi liðið í fyrra og var tilnefndur sem MVP. Núna er Grant Hill loksins kominn í lag og vonandi ekki búinn að gleyma miklu og Shawn Kemp kominn, en hann er búinn að vera í stöðugu prógrammi í sumar og búinn að bæta á sig þó nokkrum kílóum af vöðvum. Þótt hann muni ekki ná aftur sínu gamla formi mun hann gera eitthvað fyrir liðið. Magic er búið að standa sig mjög vel í æfingaleikjum síðkastið og þetta verður árið sem eitthvað gengur hjá þeim. Boston Celtics áttu gott ár í fyrra og komust í úrslit Austurdeildarinnar en þeir ery búnir að missa Kenny Anderson sem gegndi mikilvægu hlutverki hjá þeim í fyrra. Samt eru Paul Pierce og Antoine Walker þarna og þeir munu líklegast vinna flesta leikina fyrir þá. Philadelphia 76ers er alls ekki eins gott lið og það var. Samt eru þeir með Allen Iverson og þótt ég fíli hann alls ekki þá á hann þetta lið og hann ef að hann mun eiga gott tímabil þá mun liðið eiga gott tímabil. Washington Wizards er komið með skotmaskínuna Jerry Stackhouse og Larry Hughes og auðvitað með MJ á bekknum en samt hef ég á tilfinningunni að þeim muni ekki ganga vel. Hinsvegar ef þeir fá miðherja í vetur þá má búast við árangri frá þeim. Miami Heat og New York Knicks munu svo berjast um sjötta sætið og ég held að Knicks hafi betur þrátt fyrir að brjálæðingurinn Latrell Sprewell og Antonio McDyess sem meiddist nokkrum dögum eftir að Don Chaney keypti hann verði ekki með. Miami Heat án Alonzo Mourning er eins og ostborgari án osts. Eddie Jones er góður en ekki nógu góður. Mín spá: Spá ESPN: 1. New Jersey Nets 1. New Jersey Nets 2. Orlando Magic 2. Orlando Magic 3. Boston Celtics 3. Boston Celtics 4. Philadelphia 76ers 4. Washington Wizards 5. Washington Wizards 5. Washington Wizards 6. New York Knicks 6. Miami Heat 7. Miami Heat 7. New York Knicks CENTRAL DIVISION - MIÐRIÐILLINN Eftir að blómaskeið Chicago rann út hefur Miðriðillinn orðið sá riðill sem minnst er varið í. Í fyrra komust tvö lið úr honum í undanúrslit en duttu bæði úr þar. Bestu liðin í riðlinum þetta árið verður líklegast New Orleans (frv. Charlotte) Hornets og Indiana Pacers. Baron Davis átti gott tímabil í fyrra og núna er Jamal Mashburn er kominn aftur, en lá veikur á sjúkrahúsi allt seinasta tímabil. Síðan er P.J. Brown góður frákastari og baráttuhundur. Indiana Pacers er með góða blöndu af ungum, efnilegum leikmönnum eins og Jermaine O’Neal og Jamaal Tinsley og gömlum jöxlum og fer þar fremstur í flokki ein besta skytta deildarinnar, Reggie Miller. Hann mun leiða liðið og mun vilja koma því langt en hann fer bráðum að hætta. Atlanta Hawks er komið með gott byrjunarlið þótt að bekkurinn sé slappur, þeir fengu Glenn Robinson í sumar og fyrir eru Jason Terry og Shareef Abdur Rahim. Þetta þríeyki ætti að koma þeim eitthvað áfram og Theo Ratliff verður að spila eitthvað en hann spilaði aðeins þrjá leiki í fyrra. Detroit Pistons vann riðilinn í fyrra en er búið að missa Jerry Stackhouse sem skoraði (og skaut) mest hjá þeim í fyrra en Richard Hamilton og Hub Davis komu í staðinn og munu styrkja liðið eitthvað. Varnarmaður seinasta tímabils, Ben Wallace er þarna ennþá og mun halda vörninni saman en liðið er ekki eins sterkt og í fyrra. Toronto Raptors hefur gengið ágætlega seinustu tímabil en Vince Carter þarf að eiga afgerandi tímabil til að það nái árangri þetta ár því að samhefjar hans er ekki nógu góðir. Milwaukee Bucks eru búnir að missa Big Dog og þótt að einn besti skotmaður deildarinnar, Ray Allen og Sam Cassell eru þarna ennþá tel ég þá ekki eiga eftir að ná góðu seasoni þetta árið. Chicago er búið að ganga hörmulega síðan MJ, Pippen og Rodman fóru en núna held ég að þeir nái ágætu tímabili (á þeirra mælikvarða). Þeir eru komnir með sterkann nýliða, Jay Williams og Jalen Rose sem brilleraði hjá þeim eftir að hann var seldur til þeirra um mitt tímabil í fyrra er þarna ennþá. Tyson Chandler náði sér ekki á strik í fyrra en nú þegar hann er kominn með reynslu held ég að honum gangi vel. Cleveland átti verstu skipti ársins, fengu Daris Miles og Harold Jamison fyrir stoðsendingakónginn Andre Miller og Bryan Stith. Þeim mun ekki ganga vel í ár og verða pottþétt neðstir í riðlinum.

Included: The latest reason I want to learn piano, religious reflections, etc. First up: Hallelujah, by Leonard Cohen. This is simply one of the most beautiful songs I think I've ever heard, lyrically and musically. Amazing. Well I heard there was a secret chord That David played and it pleased the Lord But you don't really care for music do ya? It goes like this: the fourth, the fifth The minor fall and the major lift The baffled king composing Hallelujah.... Hallelujah, Hallelujah Hallelujah, Hallelujah Your faith was strong but you needed proof You saw her bathing on the roof Her beauty in the moonlight overthrew you She tied you to a kitchen chair She broke your throne and she cut your hair And from your lips she drew the Hallelujah.... Hallelujah, Hallelujah Hallelujah, Hallelujah Maybe I've been here before I know this room and I've walked this floor I used to live alone before I knew you I've seen your flag on the marble arch Love is not a victory march It's a cold and it's a broken Hallelujah.... Hallelujah, Hallelujah Hallelujah, Hallelujah There was a time you let me know What's real and going on below But now you never show it to me do you? I remember when I moved in you The holy dark was moving too And every breath we drew was Hallelujah.... Hallelujah, Hallelujah Hallelujah, Hallelujah Maybe there's a better bow Than all I ever learned from love Was how to shoot at someone while I drew you It's not a cry you can hear at night It's not somebody who has seen the light It's a cold and it's a broken Hallelujah.... Hallelujah, Hallelujah Hallelujah, Hallelujah You say I took the name in vain I don't even know the name But if I did well really, what's it to ya? There's a blaze of light in every word It doesn't matter which you heard The holy or the broken Hallelujah.... Hallelujah, Hallelujah Hallelujah, Hallelujah I did my best, it wasn't much I couldn't feel so I tried to touch I've told the truth, I didn't come to fool ya And even though it all went wrong I'll stand before the Lord of Song With nothing on my lips but Hallelujah.... Hallelujah, Hallelujah Hallelujah, Hallelujah Hallelujah, Hallelujah Hallelujah, Hallelujah Hallelujah, Hallelujah Hallelujah, Hallelujah Hallelujah.... Wow. That song is amazing... Beautiful symbolism throughout. Everything from religion to sex to relationships, all summed up and set to a haunting tune. (Also, for any music theory geeks that read this, the first verse is accurate--he does indeed play the fourth, fifth, minor key, and back to the major fourth. Go him.) Songs like that are why I love music. ----------- Tonight is the Hurricane Katrina Benefit All-Star Game. I'm looking forward to it. I'm still not sure how I feel about Katrina. It was a tragedy, yes. The loss of life is severe, the loss of property even worse. But I read statistics like "seventy percent of the city is below sea level"--and this isn't an INLAND sea level, this is houses being built right up against the levees. I remember a humorous email about life in New Orleans from a couple years ago--one of the items read "If the levees break, everyone here will die. No one seems worried about this, either.".... Prophetic, almost. Yeah, the levees broke. It wasn't really so much an if as a when, if you ask me. You build a city like New Orleans right up against the sea, with no protection from The Big One.... and it's going to happen, eventually. On a long enough timeline, everyone's survival rate drops to zero. I disagree with people blaming the government for this. Okay, I take that back, the government is to blame for not having a worst-case scenario for such an event. I hate how people are blaming the current Federal government for this. Blame the state, blame the city, blame the government as a whole; there's enough blame to go around. But yeah--this is not the fault of the current Republican government. You can say that Bush doesn't care about black people all you want, but the fact is, Kerry wouldn't have been able to save everyone either. This problem goes way back before the Bush administration; it goes back further than the Clinton administration. This kind of thing was, sadly, bound to happen eventually. And it did. We need to learn from our mistakes, and plan for the next big one, whether that be a Richter nine in California or another Category 5 hurricane. Because the earth is a fickle entity; it does not play favorites. ----------- Class is going well, I think. I'm enjoying it. It's been a while since I've had a class with Molleur; I'd almost forgotten what it was like. But it's going well. It definitely gives you a new perspective on everything. The Divinity of Jesus, for instance... wasn't in the Bible, it was decided upon by the Council of Nicea. They don't teach you that in Sunday School. I think it's about time I wrote down what exactly it is that I believe. Seeing as how I got into an incredibly deep conversation with Shana tonight. That was fun... I got to play the role of the teacher a bit. Good times. Okay. My beliefs: I believe that there is a God: the God of Abraham, the deliverer of the Jews out of Egypt, the Creator, the Father, the God of History, a personal God, a God of Love. I believe in Jesus as the best teacher the world has ever had, as fully human and fully divine, as Logos (the Word), as the Son of God. I believe in the Holy Spirit as the conduit between God and Man. I believe in the power of propechy and divine revelation--to Abraham, Moses, Isaiah, Jesus, Mohammed. I believe that there is too much order and chaos in the world to be explained by either God or Science--Faith or Reason, as it were. I feel that one must utilize both in order to gain a true understanding of the nature of the universe. I believe that there was a Big Bang, and that the universe as we know it was created from infinite matter in an infinitesimal space. I also believe that such a state would have been ordered chaos: that it would have remained in such a state as to be forever gravitationally attracted to itself, thereby never yielding a Big Bang. I believe that something must have happened to set the forces of chaos to such a degree that the gravitational power of all the matter in the universe was no longer the driving force, and that in that instant, matter exploded into the universe as we know it. I credit God with doing this--because what other answer is there? I believe that every religion has some truth to it. I do not claim that what I have written here is right or wrong; I do not claim to have the answers to these things. What I have written here is what I believe, and to my God, that is enough. As I told Shana this afternoon, "There is no such thing as absolute right or wrong. Don't concern yourself with whether you're right or not. Have faith in what you believe, and that will get you through." I feel that there is a difference between beliefs and faith--to me, a belief is something like what I have written down. Believing that there is or is not a God, and that Jesus was or was not His Messiah is a belief--faith is more subtle, more powerful. My beliefs have changed since I got here. I used to accept whatever I was told in church or Sunday school as the truth. Since I have begun to study religion in my time at Cornell, I've stopped taking things for granted; I've stuck to my guns--MY guns, not the guns of Marc and Leanna, not the guns of Molleur and Vernoff, but the things that I believe--I've learned, and I've learned how to learn. I've learned where to look for information. I would rather take a class in religion or read the Bible and some commentaries or a book on religious history than I would go to church. Yes, fellowship is an incredibly important part of religious life--but I get enough fellowship in my daily life; and the additional fellowship I get at church is negated by the fact that it's just not my thing anymore. The only reason I go to church at home anymore is to see old friends I haven't seen in months--it's certainly not to listen to stale old sermons. My faith has become an academic faith... I no longer see Christianity as "The Right Way". I see it as *a* way. I feel it is the right way for me--if it weren't for the whole Jesus thing, I'd be Jewish--but who am I, a lowly twenty-one year old religion major, to tell a Muslim or a Hindu that their religion is not valid? Who am I to tell a tribesman in Africa that the gods he worships are natural forces with a natural explanation? Who am I to tell a fellow brother in Christ that the way he does things are wrong? I've got no right to do any of those things. I've long felt that conversion is one of the biggest turn-offs in modern religion. The desire to change someone's beliefs should not exist, even if your holy text does say "No one shall come to the Father except through me." Think about it--if you were to use that logic, any Hindu could reply that Lord Krishna said the same thing; or a Buddhist could tell you there is no Father and that the way to salvation is through enlightenment. Using arguments like that.... just doesn't work. And I hate that there are so many people in the world that fail to see it. Fundamentalists on all sides--we have no way of knowing who's right and who's wrong--all we can do is have faith that what we believe is right. Let others have their beliefs, they do you no harm. Unless your views are so shallowly held that you can't bear even the slightest challenge to them. To me, at least, God doesn't base his decisions of righteousness on what a person believes, so long as they believe. ----------- I'm sure that was hard to follow. I'll try again some other time, if anyone wants me to. Cashews are addictive. Man. I'm going to go play guitar until about ten, when I will migrate to the lounge for the game.

The looting, the robbing, everything like that, makes sense in a twisted sort of way. People get stuff. People like stuff. People like that they can get stuff for free--especially if they can do so during times of mass hysteria like, for instance, the aftermath of a hurricane. Looting happens all the time during natural disasters. That's understandable, but still wrong. However, sniping at people entering a hospital after said natural disaster from a rooftop is just senseless. You're shooting at people who need help; you're shooting at rescue teams; you're shooting at the people who are risking their lives among flooded streets, dead bodies, chemical spills, and countless other dangers in order to preserve life. And then you come along and add your bullets into the mix. You make me sick. People like you are why I support the death penalty. But death is too good for you; hell is too good for you. You deserve more suffering than this world contains, and my only regret is that you'll probably escape "justice" in this world because it doesn't have the capability of doling out the true punishment that you deserve. I saw the headline on CNN that there was a sniper outside a hospital in New Orleans, and my heart just sank. The last time I had this little faith in the human race was 9/11. But that was a coordinated attack by people who failed to realize that their religion was one of peace. They were misguided, and while I think their attacks are infamous, I think you are that much worse. I don't know why you're doing what you're doing. I don't know if you're insane, or if you have some sick twisted reason in your own mind that makes this okay, or if you just get your kicks out of shooting innocents. But you are, in my eyes, the very definition of evil. You're shooting people who are risking their lives in order to save others. Even worse than the DC area snipers, even, they just wanted to cause as much chaos as they could. But you? You are killing off the very people that everyone should be thanking God for. Because they will do whatever it takes to preserve that which you are trying to steal. Go to hell, you scum.

I hate how I've never been able to give some people a hug when they've needed it the most. I hate how much physical comfort can make things better, but I've only been an online shoulder to cry on, and that the most comforting gesture I can make is *hug*. I wish I could be there for you right now. I wish that these troubles weren't happening to you at all; but since they are, I wish nothing more than to be able to wrap my arms around you in a loving embrace and hold you tight until all your worries disappear. I wish I could sit and cry with you for as long as it takes to make things right. I hate myself for not being able to be there for you. I hate the distance between us, that prevents me from doing everything in my power to try to make things right. I hate feeling this inadequate; when I know it's no fault of my own, but the hundreds of miles that separate us that keeps us apart. I love the ability you have to make me smile. I love how just talking with you can ease the weight on my shoulders. I love how good of a friend you have been to me, all these years. And in case I haven't told you recently enough, I love you.

The big thing in my life is that I figure it's time to start thinking about my future. This scares me, because I have no idea what my future really has in store. So. Without further ado, these are my options, as I see them right now.
Also, I may try to get a politics independent study this year, just as an added bonus. If I have one, I can use that to hopefully get a leg up on the competition. Because I'm sure there will be tons of it; people who are smarter, more experienced, and everything. I stand a chance. I've got people here who will go to bat for me, I know--Vernoff and Loebsack for instance--so that'll help quite a bit, I'm sure. Man. This is just going to be huge. And I don't know if I can handle it or not. Guess we'll see. So. That's me right now. I'm freaking out, I have a lot on my mind, I'm sorry if I seem irritable or what not.

No, for real. But don't expect too much; those of you I talk to frequently know pretty much everything anyways. Finished Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy on the plane tonight. It was very... British. I mean, it was interesting, and had some great lines in it. "In the beginning, the Universe was created. This made a lot of people very unhappy and has since been regarded as a very bad move." Also, Marvin fucking rocks, plain and simple. And Alan Rickman was the PERFECT choice to voice him in the movie. Side note: Rickman is now on my illustrious "Should be in every movie" list. Along with Liam Neeson (pure badass), Ed Norton (simply a great actor), Julia Stiles (cuz she's hot), Hugh Jackman (see: Neeson, Liam), and a few others. Side note to the side note: I also need to get cracking on my Cristopher Walken/Alan Rickman screenplay. They'll be the good guys. I'm considering casting Jack Black and Philip Seymour Hoffman as the bad guys. Am I brilliant, or am I brilliant? Anyways. After dealing with that much British humor, I need something I can understand. So, what does this International Relations/Religion major pick up for a little light reading? The Elegant Universe, by Brian Greene. Theoretical physics at its best. Quantum physics, relativity, higher-dimensional physics, etc. Yeah, I'm a nerd, I know. See Brandon. See Brandon RULE. Rule, Brandon, rule. Inside joke. I'm so fucking hardcore. (that's funny, because I'm really not, it's called sarcasm.) What else. Oh, Ashley Smith, which if you know me, is my first girlfriend/best friend, becomes Ashley Brown on Saturday. Still kinda blows my mind. I mean, Wolf is still Wolf. Nothing has changed there, at all. Though we still need to have a post-bachelor party for him. Maybe in conjunction with a going-away party for Bauman, which may be in conjunction with block break, which is my birthday. That'd be crazy. But yeah, it's midnight, and I'm tired, but don't really feel like sleeping. But I updated here. So get off my case.

Two things: -One, I'm not worth stalking. -Two, there's not much worth updating about. But here it goes anyways. Today, I realized something. The best form of birth control I've ever seen is little kids. Especially whiny little kids with annoying toys sitting right behind you on an airplane. Same feeling when I was working at Kroger. I dunno. I'm just not really a kid person... especially when the only vocalization they can make is an incoherent screeching noise. Or something. Home was fine... It was good to be home, but it's better to be back. I just feel right at Cornell... Much more so than at home, these days, for a number of reasons. Church doesn't feel right. My room isn't really "mine" anymore. None of my friends are around. If it weren't for my family, I would have no reason to ever go home. But here... I have everything I could ever ask for. Thank you for that, all of you. Work starts tomorrow. Should be interesting... I hope? Not really sure what all I'm going to be doing other than the general stuff they told me about... hmm.

For every moment of brilliance, of which there were many (beautiful ball movement, great defense, incredible penetration, huge shots)... there was a moment of desperation. For every great play, there was an awful one to follow. Game 1: Decisive Rockets victory. Great game by T-Mac on both ends of the floor, helping keep Nowitzki out of the game while scoring 34 points. Game 2: Yao's turn. Dropped 33 points on 13-14 and 7-7 free throws (according to the analysts, his only miss should have been counted as a steal, so he was PERFECT from the field). McGrady with a game-winner. Great game. Game 3: Great defense by Dallas. 20-0 run to end the game. We couldn't buy a shot to save our lives. Game 4: Couldn't finish the game. Terry drilled a three to put it away. (Didn't see most of this one, so I'm just going by the recaps) Game 5: Controversial call ended this game. (Didn't see most of this one, so I'm just going by the recaps) Game 6: One of the best games I've ever seen... It was close and back and forth for most of the game, and then the Rockets put it into overdrive and finished with a NINETEEN TO THREE RUN to close the game. Clutch City looked to be coming back. Game 7: Dallas wanted to win more. It was that simple. They had more energy, more desire, and I can think of forty FUCKING reasons why they won. We got beat, and we beat ourselves. Plain and simple. Dallas fans (this means you, Lindsey)... I concede. You played with more heart than we did. We didn't deserve to win. Our season SHOULD be over, the way we played last night. But wait til next year.

Sprezzatura: this is my new goal. It's an Italian word for nonchalance--acting as natural as possible at all times. Not boasting; downplaying your accomplishments; not affecting an accent or unnatural behavior. So, for me, this means that I need to cut down on my arrogance. It means I need to cut down on blowing off compliments. It means I need to accept things--especially myself--how they are. So, from now on, if I recieve compliments, I will try to accept them in good faith... and realize that you think that way... even if I don't agree, I won't argue--I will accept them, thank them, and leave it be. Sprezzatura. Nonchalance. I also liked this: "Surely you realize how much more graceful a woman is who, if indeed she wishes to do so, paints herself so sparingly and so little that whoever looks at her is unsure whether she is made-up or not, in comparison with one whose face is so encrusted that she seems to be wearing a mask and who dare not laugh for fear of causing it to crack... Such is the uncontrived simplicity which is most attractive to the eyes and minds of men, who are always afraid of being tricked by art." -Baldesar Castiglione, The Book of the Courtier --- I'm going to be working in the admissions office this summer.

This is on the way: CD 1: Richard Elliot (One of my personal favorites--saw him live, it was the first concert I actually remember going to.) CD 2: Bob James & David Sanborn (Bob James is a piano player, who teams up with several other musicians on occasion.) Craig Chaquico (This guy was playing with Richard Elliot before I got into guitar. One of the best acoustic guitarists I've heard. Note: if the name sounds familiar, he used to play with Jefferson Starship.) John Klemmer (Don't know much about this guy) Mike Phillips (Don't know much about this guy) Miles Davis (One of the best jazz musicians ever. Kind of Blue is one of my top-five albums. Period.)
Bill Evans (sax) (Don't know much about this guy) David 'Fathead' Newman (Don't know much about this guy) Donald Harrison (One of the most old-school players out there, and a nice guy--I've chatted with him before.) Kyle Turner (This guy is really good, and a local musician--the last jazz concert I went to had several headlining acts, and he spent more time on stage than any of them.) Paul Desmond (One of the best old sax players. Smooth.)
Joe Carmouche (Don't know much about this guy) Warren Hill (Former rocker turned jazz sax player. The guy can funk it up.)
Gerald Albright (Not really sure how to describe him. He's good, and I know I like his stuff, I just don't remember it.) Kirk Whalum (One of the best tenor sax players out there. Guy is amazing. I still love his CD with Bob James, though--that one is phenomenal.) Various Artists
James Moody (Don't know much about this guy) Stanley Turrentine (Another old guy. Don't know much.) Stan Getz (One of the old great tenor players of yore.)

I'm reading the same old books, I'm playing the same old games, I'm watching the same old movies. I've done it all before. I need a change. Hopefully, getting a job will help there. But, as always, the job market is depressing. And it's been a rough week... Health problems. Writing a paper. Maria worried I'm losing interest in her. Didn't get triguy for next year. Didn't get hired at Old Navy, which I was really hoping to. Have exactly zero job leads right now. Kinda wishing I'd gone home for the break, just to relax and see the family. Six months without seeing those you love is a long time. And I feel stuck, in whatever place this is, and I wish I could get out, but I don't know how, because I don't even know where HERE is...

Television and radio gets a pass. The Game Get's Punk'd! This was a title of a webpage in reference to an episode of Punk'd where the rapper Game is subject to one of the show's pranks. I could understand Punkd, if it were a shortcut to Punked and the writer was just too lazy to add the "e". I could even get past the replacement of the apostrophe for the "e", because at least it was done intentionally for the sake of marketing to the younger (read: illiterate) crowd, but making a plural form of a verb into a possessive noun is flat out asinine. Get's? What the hell is that? "Tiger, handle your bizness!" This was from, of all things, Sports Illustrated, when they reported how the demographics changed for the spectating public at golf events. When Tiger Woods hits a shot, the article reported that a black spectator would yell the above phrase. My question is: How did the writer know that the spectator meant "bizness" and not "business"? They're both pronounced the same way. There's a whole other topic here about the white journalist perceiving the black noob golf spectator's intent of pronunciation, not the actual pronunciation. If that sentence didn't make sense, it doesn't matter because I'm not getting into it anyway. ARE WE PLAYIN SATURDAY OR WHAT though i am generally considered a grammar-purist (or is that modifier more acurately stated as "grammatical purist"?), i technically would not oppose the elimination of the shift or caps key just to avoid an all caps email, post, or blog. in fact, i am resorting to no caps in this particular entry just to balance out the all caps abuse. stop screaming, you idiot.

English: Time travel will allow me to correct my past mistakes. Spanish: The route of the time will allow that it corrects my last errors.

In response to this age limit, Indiana Pacer's star forward suggested that the limit was racist, since most of the underage players are black. Therefore, black players are young. Stern wants to stop young players coming into the league. Therefore Stern must want to stop black players coming into the league. I could comprehend the argument that an age limit is racist is based on the assumption that black kids are not smart enough to go to college, and their black parents can't support themselves during those few years, and therefore these poor and undereducated black kids have no place to go but the NBA. To tell a black kid that you have to wait a couple years is basically telling him that his parents have to stay poor, and also you better make sure you don't flunk out of college. Meanwhile, the white kids are able to go to college because they're smart enough, and their parents can afford to live comfortably because, as we know, all white people are rich and all black people (except Grant Hill's family) are poor. My take is that the age limit isn't trying to keep kids from coming into the NBA, it's about keeping kids in college. How many high school players or college players make themselves eligible for the draft too early, only to lose the free ticket they would otherwise get for a free degree (Scotty Thurman anyone?) The bottom line is that the kids cost the NBA too much money. It takes a few years for a player to develop and mature, and instead of it happening for free at the college ranks, the NBA has to pay a salary to do it. Meanwhile those kids don't get any playing time until their third year, which they then bounce and sign as free agents elsewhere. Half these kids (high school and early entries) don't make the league anyway, and they end up taking a spot from a proven veteran. The NBDL is a joke, since the NBA already is a developmental league.

The basic movement is circular, but yet so many see the movement as linear. The swing must move in fluid circles, from the hips and joints to the stance and swing; one cannot go up without coming back down in a natural state. The swing is a symmetrical movement, just as your belief and confidence. Everything must travel is its most simplistic form. A swing that is very upright should force a flat finish. A player who hits the balls short should not force a longer yardage. A patient person should not feign aggressive behavior. When the inherent things dominate your thoughts and your swing, this is when you are at the most simplistic form, and all things become easy. This is when the soft and weak overcomes the hard and strong.

This is my interpretation of the various forms of that statement: You are a lucky man. (A quiet, subdued admission that one has attained something that others may not have attained or have not attained as easily. For example, when seeing someone with a beautiful wife, the proper remark would be "You are a lucky man." not "You are a LUCKY man!". The remark people want to hear the most, because it denotes a bit of envy from other people, which normally bring men tremendous joy.) You are a lucky man! (A statement of realized appreciation, such as in the event that one person brings great luck to someone else. For example, a man brings his friend with him to around South Central LA to go shopping for suede Pumas and a rival gang sees them and shoots them up, but the bullets riddle the entire car but miss them both. Later that night they're walking to the club in Long Beach and a fight breaks out into the street, but the friend forgot to tie his Pumas and trips over his shoestrings and knocks both of them over and they fall to top of each other in an awkward embrace that anywhere else would have been uncomfortable, but here they are relieved that the violent street riot just barely misses them. "Wow, I'm bringing you out with me every night dude...you are a lucky man!" he says as he looks up at his friend, who is still lying on top of him.) You are a LUCKY man! (Slightly misleading, depending on how you read it. Usually this is meant to imply that one got away with something after a very close call. For example, a middle-easterner guy bets with another middle-easterner guy that he can score with the short-but-curly-haired blonde with the Prada handbag with the shin-high boots/summer skirt outfit (think western look) even though her boyfriend is the buzzcut thug playing pool, and the guy actually scores with the chick, but her boyfriend finds out and then the guy realizes the boyfriend is a marine with a bunch of loyal "Hooah!" friends with Semper Fi tattoos and they all look for him to pound him to a pulp...and then the very next day the boyfriend and all his friends get called back to another tour of duty to Iraq. "Dude, you are a LUCKY man!") You are a lucky MAN! (usually said after realizing that the lucky person you've been talking to wasn't a woman, but a man. For example, during the National Mens Gothic Barbecue Extravaganza a tourist walks up to a long haired beauty with lots of makeup that just won the barbecue due to the announced winner's disqualification after injecting his beef with flavored growth hormones, he says "You just won, geez you're a lucky woman." Then, upon finding out that the goth person is a man, he says, "Oops my bad, you are a lucky MAN!") YOU ARE A LUCKY MAN!!! (Usually denotes some sort of spam.)

Everything was in the favor of the US Team, who fielded the stronger players, and also were playing at a US Open setup at Oakland Hills. Of course, all of that went out the window when Sutton decided to be a bonehead and made some horrible pairings to go against awesome pairings of the Europeans, such as Garcia/Donald, Clarke/Westwood, Harrington/Montgomerie, etc. I could go on in listing great pairings in the European side. I couldn't do the same for the US side, since US Captain Hal Sutton absolutely is to blame for the loss. While I understand that the players still have to go out and play, when Sutton pairs up the team the way he does, he doesn't empower them to win. What makes zero sense to me is that Sutton is so biased towards his stars, and doesnt care about his supposed "scrubs", meaning Fred Funk, Kenny Perry, Stewart Cink, etc. What he did was forego chemistry, and also how they complement each other. For example, yout have to put accurate players like Funk with Mickelson, so at least Lefty can play from the fairway, instead of having Tiger play from the OB fence or from the deep rough. And Chad Campbell/Furyk would be a perfect matchup, since Campbell is a lowball striker that would run past greens and hit bunkers, while Furyk is arguably the best bunker/short game player alive. Toms/Furyk made no sense to on the first day, since they're actually pretty similar types of players. Furyk is a Ryder Cup mastedon, not one of your scrubs, and a player like the reliable Toms needs to be paired up with spectacular but yet erratic players like Woods or Mickelson. My ideal pairings: Woods/Riley One of the biggest reasons why Woods sucks at team match play but always wins the Accenture Match Play is because he is arguably one of the best individual performers of all time...but he doesn't know how to play in a team. He doesn't trust his partners, and doesn't talk to them. He's only in love with himself. Riley is his buddy since they were yutes, so at least he would be having fun. Mickelson/Toms Toms is more reliable than Mickelson, but he isn't as creative as Lefty. Not only have they been successful together in the past, Toms is more accurate and a superior putter than Mickelson, in my opinion. Love/Haas Haas was a poor Captains choice...I would've chosen Jerry Kelly...and you would have that emotion that Sutton wish he got from his players. Love is solid, and Haas is solid, if a little short. This is a solid pairing. Furyk/Campbell Perfect combination of a guy who can work every shot in the book (Furyk), and a guy who is pure power (Campbell). You have a guy who is a birdie maker in Campbell, but when he's off, you have the best recovery player from off the green in Furyk. DiMarco/Perry This is probably one of the weaker teams, because Perry doesn't have anything other than a draw. DiMarco will light a fire up Perry's ass. Of all the players on the team, Perry and Haas are the two players that do not belong playing match play. Cink/Funk Your best putter and your most accurate driver would equate to a pretty consistent team...this is a birdie team, as long as Cink sinks those putts. Of all these pairings, Hal Sutton only used Woods/Riley and Mickelson/Toms once each. Interestingly, they both won points for the US team. What didn't work was when he played the 50 year old Haas three straight sessions, and it was apparent that the old man was worn out on the third session. Whatever the pairings in the future, there has to be a better way to approach the Ryder Cup. Maybe it's time that the US isn't so arrogant anymore and approach it as US vs. the world (a la the Presidents Cup)? Maybe it should be the Americas vs Europe, meaning we open up the field to north and south of the borders. That wouldn't change much, but at least you could pull in a Mike Weir to replace someone like Cink.

On a beautiful day with wind on your backside, defending September Open champion Tony wasn't around to claim his usual territory, so it was time for the kids to run out to the park and take turns pissing on the fire hydrant as if to say, "Back off, this block is mine." In other words, it was prime time for the usual runner uppers to try to catch up to TW in the standings. Everyone who had a stake was licking their chops to put a foot in dat ass that was the Player of the Year race. That group included Eric, Calvin and Mike. Eric has been ranked number 1 in the World Rankings since June, and he would benefit the most from TW's adventures in NY. After a modest bogey on the first, Eric farted a quadruple bogey 9 on the second hole, and it was an uphill climb after that. Forget trying to catch up to Tony, what about catching up to Duc? Duc, of all people, was outshooting Invitational Champion Eric, beating him by one stroke in the front nine. But that wasn't the end of it for Eric. He was pretty proud of himself for shooting birdie on the 10th, but then proceeded to hump himself in the leg all day long by shooting four 7s, an 8, and a ghastly 10 on the back nine. The 10 was especially horrendous, which included a dropped shot to OB, and later what felt like half a dozen balls that duck hooked into the water (taking turns with Chi). Eric ended up finding his second ball, which saved his hide until two shots later, when he hit a brilliant shot. Unfortunately for him, it was Chi's ball. Sir, that's two strokes down the bucket, and don't forget to put the ball with the big bold letters "CHI" back where you found it. And that sound you hear? That's the sound of someone else getting tour points. Calvin was hot, opening up with three pars. He was four over after eight holes until he decided to hook his balls to the left, posting a triple on the 9th. While his front nine play was admirable, the only thing admirable on the back was his effort. His tee shots certainly weren't, as they continued to hook all day. He switched to his three wood. Hook. He played to the right. Hook. He hooked his way to a 9 on the 10th hole, which is the number 1 handicap hole. He did pull out a rally on the last few holes to get par, and pull into contention. Mike absolutely blistered on the front nine. And by blister, not the kind that causes pain, except to your opponents. Six pars en route to a 40. On the back nine he shot 5 pars toward a 42. On his par 3s, he failed to par only one, on the downhill 16th. Mike finished as the leader of the field. The other players had mixed results. Sean pretty much matched Mike on the front nine with a 42, but fatigue, dizziness or an overabundance of carbs must have set in as he shot a 48 on the back, which included two doubles and a triple. Bruce was actually hotter than Sean, shooting a 41 in the front. In fact, the threesome of Mike, Sean and Bruce ran a train on the fairway, each taking turns hitting the middle of the fairway hard and long and smacking its ass. But Bruce, for some reason, shot five consecutive double bogeys and had a big let down. Call it peaking too early. Or premature ejaculation. Whatever you call it, he stumbled with a 52 on the back nine, a full 11 shots more than he scored in the front. Chi's return reminded some of David Duval's return to the PGA. Chi's swing then reminded some of David Duval's swing after he returned. He shot the worst after nine, posting a 52. In fact, he played so poorly he stopped keeping score after the 14th, giving himself a frosty DQ treat. That left Duc, of all people, to search for redemption. He found the fairway more often than usual, after settling on a (for now) reliable swing. He shot a 47 in the front and was on pace to do a drive-by snatching of purse money, but he dropped a 10-bomb on the 11th (the same hole Eric hit Chi's ball on) after taking an OB and needing a couple shots to get out of the beach. But, on the 18th, with Mike being the leader off the field, Duc still had a small chance. Duc drew on his tee shot down the middle on the 18th, but pushed his approach shot short and to the right. With the pin tucked up front and needing a bogey to win, Duc tried a mini-flop to the fringe, but since he has never actually practiced that shot, the shot was short. He chipped it by the hole, which left a 30-incher for bogey. As the rest of the field putted out, Duc was left in silence to putt...and miss. Duc seemed slumped and defeated, as if he crapped his deflated soul out his pants. There was a mild roar (if not heard, at least internal in their minds) among the gallery, as Mike had notched another victory on his resume. Duc lost the tiebreaker to place second, Calvin took third, and Bruce rounded out the top four. The win put Mike within Tony by 40 points, and trailed Calvin by 10, and Eric by a measly 5 points, which equates to a Weight Watchers meal. He also set himself for a mighty showdown in the next two tourneys with Eric for Rookie of the Year.

So, as I so often do, I have a conversation with myself. "Huh," I say. "Huh what?" I ask. "That's an interesting way to spread the word." "What's wrong with that; the owner of this car wants to express him/herself. It's like a bumper sticker, but you never say anything about that." "No, a bumper sticker is one thing, but typing it out on your computer, printing it out, and then using tape to stick it to the inside of your window is another. And what does this car hope to do, convince people as they're walking by? If I was going to have a same sex marriage, am I going to walk by, read this sign, and change my mind?" "Good point. But it made you think about it enough to formulate this blog entry, didn't it?" Touche. First of all, I don't think anything is wrong with wearing your heart on your sleeve, or in this case, your car's back window. But you have to think about who you're preaching to, and whether this message will work. What does it help? People walking by with either agree with you entirely, or will disregard the message. Either way, they keep walking by. Besides, same sex marriage is not a perversion of God and Nature. If God intended for Marriage, did God intend for divorce? Did God intend for cheating spouses? Then how come people don't post signs saying "Divorce is a Perversion of God"? And same sex marriage is not a perversion of nature, since marriage doesn't exist anywhere else in nature except for us insecure humans. Trees don't marry. Fish don't marry. Lions don't marry. Sure, a lion has his lioness, but you can hardly call that a marriage. The king of the pride sometimes gets ousted when he is challenged, and if he loses, the pride has a new alpha male. Is that what nature intended? That only the stong gets to bag the chicks? And the chicks will go for whoever the biggest stud is? Jeez, I thought I left high school behind me. The fact is, the point of marriage is that you make a promise that not only will I no longer bag any other chick than you, I will not even pursue any bagging. You will be the only chick I bag from now on. Or dude, or whatever. And conversely, it's a promise to say I don't care if the next lion is a bigger stud than you, I promise only you, however lame you may be compared to David Beckham, can bag me. That's what marriage is. If anything, same sex marriage is a perversion of a the conventional concept of family. The conventional concept of family is to get married, have kids, put them through college, etc. And therefore, a same sex marriage does not allow the creating of natural kids (natural meaning without artificial insemination, adoption, etc.). Now I could care less about same sex marriages. Reality is, I don't believe that God wants marriage a certain way, or wants you to win at slots, or wants Flordia to beat Ohio State. What I do know is that the more single people off the street, the better the world will be, because single people are assholes sometimes, face it. There's so much anxiety sometimes, and at other times lack of direction. Most single people are losers. Married people, in my experience, are more responsible and level headed. Married people are losers too, but at least you have at least one person that will accept your loserness. So, go ahead and marry another of your own gender if you want, I don't care. Go ahead and marry your gerbil. If it makes you happy, then do it. Just beware of the marriage tax.

Not enough hustle players. No shooters. Conflicting styles. Duplicative styles. The real problem was that all the bigger names had already turned down the offer to play in the Olympics, so naturally the governing body of USA Basketball chose the biggest names left. In some cases, it was so obvious that they were desperate for names that they chose players of which they absolutely had no need (paging Carmelo Anthony). It seems that with Team USA losing multiple times in the Olympics, everyone is coming out with a list of their dream team. Well, I've got mine. But, instead of thinking of names, I did what they should have done, which is think of the roles first, and then the names to fit the roles. 1 Pure Point: Andre Miller 1 Combo Point: Dwyane Wade 2 Pure Shooters: Michael Redd, Voshon Lenard 2 All-Around Defensive Players: Ron Artest, Tayshaun Prince 2 All-Around Offensive Players: LeBron James, Allen Iverson 2 Utility Players: Shane Battier, Brian Cardinal 1 Low Post Player: Tim Duncan 1 Rebounder: Amare Stoudemire I've excluded any players that turned already turned offers down. I've also put less emphasis on low post players because they aren't necessary if you're always playing against a zone defense. Now if that's not a bomb ass leftover squad, I don't know what is.

Face it, aside from a few choice events, the rest of the venue is a crapfest. And it's not the athletes' fault; it's just the fault of the way the Olympics are set up. The spirit of the Olympics is about determining the single human being who excels beyond everyone else in any given sport. In the entire world, in this sport, this individual stands on a podium with his head raised, and his hand clutching the gold, telling the entire world that on this day, he has surpassed all humankind with this achievement. Note the key word "individual." I think the Olympics should focus more on the individual, not on teams. That's the first thing I would do to make the Olympics relevant. Eliminate all team sports and team competitions. Face it, no one cheers the American Men's swim team when Michael Phelps wins the gold; it wasn't the team on the cover of Time magazine. You really think the Postal Team won the Tour de France? Give me a break. Name one member of the Postal Team other than Lance Armstrong and you've proven me wrong. Let's take swimming as the example. Michael Phelps was promised a million bucks if the dude could bring home seven golds. Well he was dominating all the individual sports, but in the freakin' relay his lame-o teammate let him down. Dude, you just cost me a cool mill. All because I depended on your sorry ass. Take a look at the USA basketball team. Is there any doubt that Tim Duncan stands out as a men among boys on that team? And fools like Carlos Boozer gets to come along for the ride? Please. Timmy's chance for gold might have gone out the window when they asked Marbury to play point. So, do away with all team sports, but not necessarily the sport itself. For instance, let's take the top 128 one-on-one basketball players in the world and put them in brackets. You can have Olympic qualifying events where people play one-on-one basketball to 21 points, and based on their regional standings, they get placed in a certain spot on the bracket. And there's no USA vs. Russia vs. China. You put the top 128 players in that field, you could get Americans versus Americans. Everyone plays a game of 21, winners have to win by two to end a game. Half the field plays one day, the other half plays the next. You'll have your best one-one-one basketball player in the world in two weeks. And I'll be Iverson wins a medal. How awesome would that be? Do away with dumbass events like Synchronized Swimming. How about pitting them all against one another? One goes first, then the other. Because it's do or die, they'd better surprise the judges with some kickass tricks. Otherwise you're the one that sucks and get bounced. Then on to the next bracket. Ooh, just think of the possibilities with the Equestrian competitions. And how about weightlifting...it's not about how much you can lift, but how much you can lift against that pansy on that day. See, currently the way it's set up is if you have the highest score, you win the gold. I think the highest score should only get you to the next round. Kind of like the NBA's three-point shootout, if you think about it. A guy could get 24 out of 25 points in the first round, but his score of 13 might be good enough in the third round to win it all. The object is to test skill and endurance. Therefore, the 13 year old kid from Lithuania could stumble through all her rounds in the high bar even as long as her competitions keep falling on their face. Well that's all I would do to change the Olympics...that and see through women's swimsuits. THAT would kick ass.

Colorado law previously prohibited using a woman's sexual history as evidence in sexual assault cases. By allowing the defense to use her past against her, the prosecution realizes that they may not have a strong enough case, thereby resulting in a civil suit. This is why this country is so dumb. I don't profess to know much about the legal system, but I do know that it allows you to be guilty of a crime in a civil case but to be not guilty in a criminal case. Let's look back at the O.J. Simpson trials. He was found not guilty OF MURDER in a criminal trial. He was later found guilty OF MURDER in the civil trial. So I don't get it, is the guy a murderer or not? "When you talk about it in the context of a criminal case, he is not," I hear your dumbasses saying. "But in the context of a civil case, he is. It's a complicated legal process." So when he is introduced by the Public Address announcers at his next golf charity event, what do they say? "Ladies and gentlemen, now teeing off at the 11:15 tee time, from Brentwood, California, the unguilty killer, the uncivil civilian, you know him from his Heisman trophy, I loved him in Airplane, your very own...O.J. Simpson!" Is this the same deal as in Boxing? In boxing there are like forty boxing federations, and you could be the "undisputed" world heavyweight champion of one boxing federation, and another stiff could be the "undisputed" world heavyweight champion. I say let the two duke it out, and then the winner gets to be the real world champion. The same for Simpson. Let the defense of the criminal trial go against the prosecution for the civil trial, and the winner determines whether Simpson is a killer or not. None of this "He's a killer in certain social circles" crap. As for the hated Kobe, it looks like he might very well fall into the same pattern as O.J. He'll likely be acquited in the criminal trial, and then proven to be a rapist in the civil trial. Then he'll pay a fine, and go play for the Lakers. And you know what? His fans will still lurve him.

That way I won't have to delete your frickin' email without even reading it. I don't want to scour through your attachments to find a relevant message. It wastes my time and it makes you look dumb.

Actually I believe they both are symptoms of the same cause, and they are a result of the constant losing in the playoffs the last few years. We can debate whether Webber's comments in the Bee were appropriate or not, but I think his intent was good, because his message was basically that he wanted his team to be better, because he hated losing and wanted to win a championship. His intentions was to make his team better. Peja's demand to be traded reflects on his committment to winning, because it is now obvious that he doesn't really care about team nor about winning, especially when he talks about Chicago as a place he'd like to go. In other words, he'd like to go play for a team where he may never go to the playoffs again for the rest of his career as long as he is happy. And a championship wouldn't make him happy, so a cellar dwellar fits him fine. Meanwhile Chris is sticking it out with his team because he is frustrated with the losing. So, he calls out his team for more toughness. Regardless of whether Chris is qualified to make such a demand, it is interesting that as soon as a mental demand is made upon the team, Peja makes his demand to be traded public. The real root of the problem is with Vlade Divac, the well-regarded undisputed leader of the team for the last six years. However, for the last six years, the leader of the locker room: never lifted weights, spent entire offseasons vacationing, chain smoked, flopped instead of playing honest defense, and never stayed late for practice despite his gradual deterioration of skills and free throw shooting. But, as we are all often reminded, he was a swell locker room guy, which I suppose means he jokes around a lot, and he squashed arguments as soon as they started. Throughout those six years, something was also very evident: it wasn't working. Not only could Chris and Vlade be unable to co-exist in the high-post offense, Vlade tempered the team's agression. This would be fine if the team was winning championships, but they weren't and I think Vlade is to blame. Now that Vlade is gone, I agree with Chris that the team needs a new outlook and a new anger in order to commit themselves to winning. What it doesn't need is a player (Peja) who's clinging on to those old days of joking around, where the chase for a championship isn't as great as it is for others. What this team needs less of is a "don't worry, be happy" attitude and more of a "I've got at least a few more intentional fouls in my bag" kind of mindset. Ideally, I would like to have a Peja who knows how to protect the ball around the basket. A great shooter, yes, especially considering he can fade back, to the left, to the right, etc. Yet, he has failed to understand the simple concept of not exposing the ball to the defense when going for a layup. Not all is his fault; I do wish some of the other players would learn how to set and then complete a pick. Too often they set a half-hearted pick and then flash toward the basket before the pick is even completed, thereby rendering the pick useless to begin with. I will give Vlade one thing: he is the only person I have ever seen to consistently set picks and hold the ball at the same time. That's quite a talent, to be a one-man pick and roll. As for Vlade's chain smoking (as termed and reported by the never-negative Ailene Voison several years ago), I do understand he gave up that habit a year or two ago. Then again, I've also read that it was due to his children that made him quit, not his performance on the floor. Also, I never said that Vlade was ever late to practice, only that he never stayed late after practice, especially when he was losing those last few valuable inches off his leap. Remember Pete Chilcutt working hard over a summer to add two inches to his jumper? Aye, that was a long time ago, but some may find inspiration in a story such as Mike Bibby, who shoots an extra 1000 jumpshots after practice when he has an exceptionally poor game. I remember hearing stories about Chris Mullin who came so early to practice that the facilities manager had to give Mullin a set of keys to the gym. And of course those stories about Magic Johnson shooting jumpers at the park with mittens on because it was snowing. Vlade is a great guy, I'm sure, and a humanitarian at that. But if there's one thing that Vlade isn't, it's a guy who goes out determined to make himself better. As much as we all love Peja, has he really improved much over the last few years, or has he become Vlade-esque in his off-season habits? You could argue that he is a better defender (albeit still a poor one), but I think it's due to learning how to play NBA defense rather than working diligently to make himself one (e.g. Dahntay Jones of Duke). I always believed that the second best thing to happen to Chris Webber was to play with Vlade, a model of consistency, a pundit of correct spacing, and a gentleman of a citizen. I also believe that the absolute best thing to happen to Chris Webber is for Vlade to leave. You talk about Peja needing to grow up? Vlade has to leave for Chris to grow up as well. Last year Bill Walton made a remark that aside from Corliss Williamson (who's really a small power forward), Ron Artest is probably the strongest small forward in the league, thereby making post-ups against him extremely difficult. He struggled against the Pistons though, shooting under 30% from the field and under 20% from beyond the arc, but given the Wallace boys brings everyone's interior shooting percentage down, the Pistons' perimeter defenders are allowed to stay home with the 3 point shooters. By the way, could you imagine Tayshaun Prince checking Stojakovic? Prince flustered Bryant into forcing quick shots. I think Trenton Hassell needs to thank Peja for his big contract this year. As you might remember, Shandon Anderson's stock went up after Utah's series against Sacramento, and the Knicks later picked up Anderson with a crazy contract (as the Knicks tend to do). Hassell's lucky that Minny matched Portland's contract. Hassell would be exposed in the athletic Blazers line up. Back to Artest: I think that Webber's problem last year (aside from the knee) wasn't that he hogged the ball; he's a constant threat for a triple double with high assists every night. The problem really was with his defense. He sagged at least two feet further than he normally does, giving opposing players lots of room to look at the basket. If you have a better help defender in Artest, Webber can face up more and the Artest/Miller combo can clean up more defensive mistakes. The Stojakovic/Divac help defense really exposed Webber out there. ~~ Duc Responses: truebluefan: Very eloquently spoken, especially about Peja wanting to go to Chicago. I had some of the same thoughts; Peja is not a ball hog by any stretch of the imagination, and wouldn't be seeking fame and/or fortune by having all the touches. The easy, "kick back" road was what I was thinking he was looking for. But not caring about winning? I didn't consider that aspect. Vlade the source of mediocrity? You could be right. Very well said. Stick around! grobar22: Nicely worded, Duc! Although I agree with many points, several things are slanted (in my view).Vlade was a "soft" center before he came to SacTown and everyone knew that. But everyone also knew of his incredible passing, positioning and advocacy for an all-around team play. I'd always go for that mantra over CWebb's "gimme my 30 shots per game".I don't think things are as simple as "Vlade left, Peja wants out too". Peja needs to get out of Vlade's shadow, that's for sure. But he could do that in Sacramento, he doesn't need to go to Chicago for that. Sacramento functioned great before Chris returned and that should not be forgotten. Peja is a SHOOTER, he's no Larry Bird, he needs others to work for him. If that's too much, then he should leave. He's just that way...I watched him in the Euro2003 championship in Sweden and he was no leader. He sure can take responsibility at times, but he is (overall) no team leader.BTW, Vlade is not a chain smoker. I don't think that his smoking of 4-5 cigarettes a day does much to his game. He also wasn't late for practices... I just think those comments were there to belittle him to a degree.Overall, I don't know what to think about Peja's departure. I think he should stay... phillyfan: Good analysis, Duc. I agree with truebluefan, stick around. It would be a shame to see Peja go, but he does not make the Kings. As BJax put it, whoever doesn't want to be here shouldn't be here, and that goes for Peja and Vlade as well as anyone else. I saw lots of posts in this forum about Peja having no heart, and that's partially very true. In that regard he certainly is nowhere near other people he's constantly compared with, be it Larry Bird or the late Petro or his own captain on the Serbian team, Bodiroga. However, I remember an interview with Shaq (who branded them Queens out of spite but there was a lot of truth to that), who said he always respected Peja 100% because he always came to play and do what he could for the team as opposed to engage in trashtalk like Vlade and CWebb (he named those names). But that was some time ago. Lately, Peja needed to be more assertive on and off the court. On the court in the postseason, he shouldn't have waited for Adelman to stroke his head and say "Peja, you remain my No. 1 option even with CWebb back". Off the court, this running for the exit thing at the first sign of trouble isn't really a solution, but I guess this is who Peja is. Meaning--there's no point in agonizing over this. The Kings should cut their losses and bring in Ron Artest. He's a terrific 3, not as bad a headcase as he was the season before, and Brad Miller will certainly help his transition. The starting five of Bibby, Christie, Artest, Webber, and the terrific Brad Miller is still top two or three in the NBA. Backed up by Jackson, Songaila, the rookies, and, oh well, Ostertag, it's not half-bad, really. Look who we have here in Philly starting for the Sixers: Iverson at point (I suppose he'll be figuring out how to pass to himself), Willie Green is the 2 guard, Williamson/Big Lazy Dog at the 3 spot, Thomas, and Dalembert. Consider that for a moment and you understand why the only thing anyone in Philly can bear to think about is the Eagles camp. So just chill and go Kings! cwebbfan1: MAN... REALLY GOOD POST. I LIKE WEBBERS GAME ,AND I STILL HAVE TO AGREE WITH YOU ABOUT DEFENSES EXPOSING HIS LACK OF MOBILITY. You are making some very good observations. It is good to read a post that is not just emotionally based. foxfightslikeagirl: I'm gonna have to go along with all these others and complement Duc again. It's nice to see rational non-partisan thought. It's rediculous that people hate Webber or hate Peja. They are both great players on the kings (for now). Support your team, and if you must criticize do it rationally. Bravo Duc.

There’s a continued debate about the coexistence of fantasy sports (particularly football) with a fan’s normal viewing. Can you root for your team and still secretly cheer for certain players on the opposing side because they’re on your fantasy teams? Can a Patriots fan sleep at night if he’s secretly hoping that Tony Gonzalez get another touchdown, but only one so the Chiefs don’t get a lead? I don’t see why not. To me, there’s the objective fan and the subjective fan inside of everybody. The objective fan can be realistic before the games, figure out what players are likely to do well, and then leave it alone every Sunday. Then, the subjective fan can appear and become the annoying loser that brags about how great his team is and how they can do no wrong. You’ve just got to create a balance between the two. That being said, check out my stacked team that I drafted Monday afternoon. Granted, I lucked out by getting the first pick in the draft, but that just means you have to deal with the ridiculous stretches of time between your picks as tons of good players get snatched up. With the first pick… I chose Priest Holmes. There’s not really too much of a debate with that one. You could take LaDainian Tomlinson if you’re a worry wart and don’t think Holmes will hold up another season, but if he throws down another 25 touchdowns or so you’ll have a massive migraine for a few months. If his hip dissolves and he misses a chunk of games, you deal with it – you just can’t pass up the potential for dominance that Holmes provides. After a nice long wait, I realized that a couple solid running backs were falling way too far, in the form of Domanick Davis and Kevan Barlow. Both should have been taken in the early 2nd round, but people were too busy fawning over Michael Vick and Terrell Owens to understand the necessity of a two-headed RB attack. I grabbed Davis, and took Hines Ward as my first receiver with Chad Johnson on the board. Ward and Davis share the same bye week, but so do Johnson and Holmes. It’s tough to let the bye weeks dictate your draft, but not having my best WR, RB, and we’ll soon find out, QB in the lineup for a week is pretty much conceding a loss, and that’s no good. In the end, my team ended up pretty good. It’s not quite my Dream Team roster from yesterday, but it’s pretty damn close. QB – Trent Green QB – Jake Plummer RB – Priest Holmes RB – Domanick “Domination” Davis RB – T.J. Duckett WR – Hines Ward WR – Andre Johnson WR – Darrell Jackson WR – Isaac Bruce WR – Peter Warrick TE – Boo Williams TE – Antonio Gates K – Josh Brown DEF – Seattle DEF – Buffalo It’s a good team, no doubt, but it’s nowhere near the caliber of my ridiculously stacked www.matrixar.com="http://baseball.fantasysports.yahoo.com/b1/40101">fantasy baseball team (see: The Trendsetters, again). The space between me and the other teams is similar to taking every team but the Yankees out of the AL East and throwing in the Royals, Expos, and Rockies. I’m in another STRATOSPHERE, baby!

It’s obvious that the team assembled isn’t exactly ideal for international play (i.e. TEAM BASKETBALL), although they aren’t completely to blame for their shortcomings. The national teams from countries like Italy or Argentina have been playing together for years and have developed ridiculous amounts of chemistry and understanding of each other’s abilities. The U.S. team, on the other hand, practices for a month and then flies on over to the Olympics to get their butts handed to them on a nice silver dish. Granted, it hasn’t happened yet, but isn’t it inevitable at this point? The U.S. winning the gold medal now would be akin to me stepping in for Michael Phelps and taking home a couple medals in freestyle. Larry Brown’s roster consist of the following “stars”: Tim Duncan, Allen Iverson, LeBron James, Carmelo Anthony, Carlos Boozer, Dwayne Wade, Shawn Marion, Richard Jefferson, Lamar Odom, Amare Stoudamire, Stephon Marbury, and Emeka Okafor. You’ve got your centerpiece, the Big Fundamental. It doesn’t matter whether it’s the NBA, international, street ball, or a pickup game of lacrosse – his game translates anywhere. He is so skilled in every aspect of the game, he can go from inside to outside and back with such ease that it creates matchup problems for anybody else on this earth. LeBron deserves to be on the team because not only does he have the all-around skill (aside from the more-than-occasional traveling call in international play), but he’s also the future of the NBA. If you take LeBron, you almost have to take Carmelo too, if only to silence all the ‘Melo fanboys out there who will whine about how much better he is and how he deserved Rookie Of The Year and how much they love to have sex with animals. Wait, did I say that out loud? So you’ve got a trio to start with. Everyone else, however, is in the hot seat. Me first point guards like Stephon Marbury and Allen Iverson have no place on this team, and neither do swingmen without a consistent jump shot (that means you Mr. Marion, you too Mr. Jefferson). Emeka Okafor is headed back to Charlotte because if there’s going to be somebody at the end of this bench getting no playing time, you need a much funnier option. Lamar Odom shoots from outside too much for a power forward, and Carlos Boozer doesn’t do it enough. Amare Stoudamire can stay because he fulfills my ridiculous athleticism in the frontcourt quota, and Dwayne Wade provides a change of pace at the guard spots, so he can hang out too. So we’ve got five spots filled in MY Dream Team, with seven more to go. As of now: C – Tim Duncan PF – Amare Stoudamire SF – Carmelo Anthony SG – LeBron James PG – Dwayne Wade Hmm, needs more experience, shooting, and token white players for racial harmony. Cue Brad Miller. Aside from a couple goofs in Sacramento’s playoff series against Minnesota, Brad Miller may have been the Kings’ most consistent player. He may very well be one of the most underrated centers in the league, and he obviously isn’t afraid to mix it up with anybody. I point my attention to that same playoff series, where he shoved a hand right in Kevin Garnett’s face on the baseline to shield his vision and/or annoy the hell out of him. I also point my attention to the near brawl he had with one Shaquille O’Neal as a member of the Chicago Bulls. If Big Brad isn’t afraid to mess with KG and Shaq, something tells me (Insert Argentinean Center Here) is going to have his hands full too. Moving down to the power forward spot, I am FORCING Jermaine O’Neal to join the Olympic team. I was holding back on adding on players who turned down invitations, such as adding Brad Miller instead of a more logical Ben Wallace, but a legitimate power forward that can play defense is something that I cannot afford to live without. Surely George W. Bush can do some good in the world and enforce some kind of legislation for this so that my Dream Team doesn’t suffer. Small Forward? Wally Szczerbiak. Please, you must understand that I play favorites, and the Great Wally cannot go without representation! PLEASE UNDERSTAND! Alright, fine, I’ll bring back Richard Jefferson. Jerk. At shooting guard, there is no doubt in my mind that Michael Redd (or Mike Miller, or James Posey, or Bobby Jackson, or Rashard Lewis, or Brent Barry, or JON BARRY for all I care) is the perfect choice. You need a guard that can shoot, and do it well, and do it often. In baseball terms, Michael Redd can flat out rake, and he can do it all day long. We’re infusing some White Chocolate into the point guard spot, and I’d like to explain why. Jason Williams’ reputation as a super flashy and reckless point guard is a little unfounded. He was the starting point guard for a 50-win team, and with the guidance of Hubie Brown turning him around, imagine what a summer with Larry Brown can do. He is fifth in the NBA in Assists per 48 Minutes (behind Steve Nash, Jason Kidd, teammate Earl Watson, and Damon Jones). He’s also fourth in AST/TO ratio, behind Antonio Daniels, Damon Jones (!), and Reggie Miller. Now, ignoring the fact that Damon Jones will never come anywhere near an Olympic team, I think J-Will is a fine choice. On the bench, we can have a guard that can come in to play the point or either of the wing spots in… Brent Barry! Just like Michael Redd, the kid can shoot, but he can do it from a number of positions. Now, we only have one last spot to fill, and I feel like there’s only one true option… Kwame Brown… because we want to tell the world that we don’t need no stinkin’ education to whoop you in ball! That’ll show them. Here’s MY Dream Team. Starting Lineup C – Tim Duncan PF – Jermaine O’Neal SF – Richard Jefferson SG – LeBron James PG – Jason Williams Bench C – Brad Miller PF – Amare Stoudamire C/F – Kwame Brown SF – Carmelo Anthony SG – Michael Redd PG – Dwayne Wade G – Brent Barry Think this team wouldn’t win gold?

The San Antonio Spurs resigned Manu Ginboili and Bruce Bowen and brought in a much needed perimeter shooter that can play either guard spot in Brent Barry, perhaps the biggest steal in free agency. The Houston Rockets acquired Tracy McGrady, giving them a duo that can compete with anyone else in the NBA. The Minnesota Timberwolves have brought back essentially their entire team, and may swing a trade to bring Shareef Abdur-Rahim into town, which would make their team absolutely frightening (at least on paper). The Denver Nuggets got Kenyon Martin, the Utah Jazz got Carlos Boozer and Mehmet Okur, the New Orleans Hornets are migrating to the conference, and the Memphis Grizzlies are a year older. The one perennial powerhouse that doesn’t seem to be doing much is the Sacramento Kings. So far this offseason, they’ve lost Vlade Divac, Rodney Buford, Anthony Peeler, Tony Massenburg, and Gerald Wallace. Their additions? A re-signed Darius Songaila and Salt Lake City legend Greg Ostertag. It’s not quite landing Kobe, now is it? www.matrixar.com='http://www.hello.com/' target='ext'>www.matrixar.com src='http://photos1.blogger.com/pbh.gif' alt='Posted by Hello' border='0' style='border:0px;padding:0px;background:transparent;' align='absmiddle'> www.matrixar.com='http://photos1.blogger.com/img/79/949/640/ostertagmad.jpg'>www.matrixar.com border='0' class='phostImg' src='http://photos1.blogger.com/img/79/949/400/ostertagmad.jpg'> What do you mean I'm ejected!?! YOU'RE EJECTED!!! < Now, to be fair, the Kings are banking on a full and healthy season from both Chris Webber and Bobby Jackson to vault them further into contention. Getting Jackson back is a great help, but it’s tough to get too reliant on Webber’s aching knees/back/ego. They’re a team built on chemistry, a team that has been playing together for years and relies on great ball movement and shooting to succeed, and now, it looks like the man most people called the Kings’ MVP last year is on his way out. Peja Stojakovic has asked to be traded from the Kings, most likely due to countryman Vlade Divac being kicked out of town and teammate Chris Webber questioning his toughness in tough situations. I’d be insulted too if a teammate called me out, but aside from the fact that Webber is practically a cripple on the court and will never contribute a valuable season for the rest of his career, was he that far off in his accusation? Last year, for example, he had a career year. Playing 40 minutes per game, Peja averaged 24.2 PPG, 6.3 RPG, 2.1 APG, and 1.3 SPG. He shot 48% from the field, 43% from 3-point range (6th in the NBA), and 92.7% from the line (2nd in the NBA). At least until halfway through the season, he was considered to be an MVP candidate… and then the playoffs came. Check out Peja’s stats from both playoff series last season, against the Mavericks and the T’Wolves: Vs. DAL: 42.4 MPG, 18.2 PPG, 8.8 RPG, 42.2 FG%, 28.6 3PFG% Vs. MIN: 43.6 MPG, 17.0 PPG, 5.7 RPG, 35.7 FG%, 34.2 3PFG% Yuck. That’s what I call a collapse. His role on the Kings is to be a scorer, someone who can be relied upon to hit the open shots, and when the playoffs roll around he falls apart. He’s a great player to get you to the playoffs, throwing down trifecta after trifecta on teams like the Hawks and the Warriors, but you need more reliable options when the games really count. If I’m Geoff Petrie, I would try to shop Peja, and see what kind of value I could get for him. The Bill Simmons-suggested Peja for Artest swap might’ve made some sense before the Stephen Jackson trade, but maybe it would still interest both sides. Nonetheless, you don’t want a disgruntled superstar on your team – just look at Nomar. But aside from all the angry millionaires in the world of sports, there’s also some hilarity. I stumbled upon an article about the world of www.matrixar.com="http://espn.go.com/mlb/columns/stark_jayson/1201283.html">Everquest and baseball, and the revenge factor involved. Let’s just say that Doug Glanville is now my favorite baseball player of all time. SEO/contentSEO SEO/entrySEOSEOentrySEO SEOidSEOtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-my.post-mySEO/idSEO SEOpublishedSEO2004-08-04T11:17:00.000-04:00SEO/publishedSEO SEOcategory scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='ANDRE MILLER basketball'/SEO SEOtitle type='text'SEOStatistics, SchmatisticsSEO/titleSEO SEOcontent type='html'SEO What gets the juices flowing better than a controversial sports article? NOTHING, that’s what! Eric Neel, a fantastic writer for ESPN’s Page 2, rummaged together an interesting piece about his feelings on Cal Ripken’s consecutive games played streak (which you can read www.matrixar.com="http://sports.espn.go.com/espn/page2/story?page=neel/040803">HERE). Essentially, he finds the streak to be vastly overrated to the point of being not that impressive. One point that Neel makes is that playing a ton of games in a row isn’t all that impressive when your skills are dwindling and you’re taking away from your team. Rather than use boring statistics to make my point as to why this isn’t true, I’m going to use the Kevin Bacon theory. That’s right, I am introducing the Kevin Bacon theory to the world of baseball analysis – Bill James beware! In essence, a combination of similar stat lines and interesting trades can make one player seem so much better… in a purely scientific way, of course. Much like every person in Hollywood is within Six Degrees Of Kevin Bacon, every baseball is a few degrees from being underappreciated. Now, was Cal Ripken really taking up space to keep his streak alive and hurting the Orioles, or was he someone… completely different? Cal Ripken (.270/.330/.730) -> Doug Mientkiewicz (.253/.344/.714) Doug Mientkiewicz -> Nomar Garciaparra (.317/.362/.849) Nomar Garciaparra + Manny Ramirez (.322/.412/1.035) -> Magglio Ordonez (.292/.351/.836) + Alex Rodriguez (.282/.371/.903) Nomar Garciaparra = Cal Ripken = Magglio Ordonez + Alex Rodriguez – Manny Ramirez. .836 OPS + .903 OPS – 1.035 OPS = .704 OPS Cal Ripken = .704 OPS = … even less than his OPS during the last couple years of his streak. Alright, I stand corrected. This Kevin Bacon theory SUCKS! Well, either way, Ripken’s streak pales in comparison to some of the more impressive baseball streaks, most notably the incredibly unheralded Scoreless Innings streak belonging to Orel Hershiser. I wrote about it www.matrixar.com="http://alexsports.blogspot.com/2004/07/going-streaking.html">HERE, so you can check out what I had to say about that. Lastly, the Dallas Mavericks are starting to redeem themselves a little bit after the Jerry Stackhouse fiasco, dealing another one of their ridiculously bad players (Antoine Walker) and a bad contract (Tony Delk) to the Hawks for Jason Terry, Alan Henderson, and a future 1st-round draft pick. It’s a wonderful trade, because it means the Mavs don’t have to rush Devin Harris into becoming the primary point guard on a playoff team, and we get some nice toughness to backup Dirk Nowitzki at the power forward spot (sorry Mr. Laettner). In the playoffs last year, Walker was barely even playing anymore, having fallen further out of the team’s graces than Nomar Garciaparra and the Red Sox. In my eyes, it’s nothing for something, and a nice little chip for the future. This may go down as one of the best deals of the season, if only for the fact that we now have one ridiculous black hole of ball sharing on the team now.

Even when not in great shape and not at his peak performance, he is as unguardable as it gets in the NBA. He had a 58.4% field goal percentage last year, although he averaged less points last year than he has in a long time (less touches will do that). Nonetheless, he was 2nd on his team in Field Goals Attempted per 48 Minutes. Kobe Bryant shot 23.1 times per 48 minutes last year, and Shaquille O’Neal shot just 18.5 times. … But Kobe Bryant is not the best signing ever. That distinction belongs to none other than Slava Medvedneko (cue annoying Stephen A. Smith soundbite here). There weren’t many touches to go around with the Lakers big two clogging up the ball most of the time, but Medvedenko managed to be third on the team in attempts per 48 minutes, with 17.9. You may remember various basketball commentators during the playoffs chortling wildly when Slava would check into a game because he would heave up any open shot that came to him without a second thought. Unlike most of the things that come out the commentators’ mouths (I’m looking at you Doc Rivers), this wasn’t absolutely ridiculous. How Slava Medvedenko can take just as many shots as Shaquille O’Neal while having a 44.1% FG% is not an understandable concept in my feeble mind. The only logical explanation I have for Slava’s happy trigger is that he is the most overlooked basketball player of all time. Thus I declare his resigning with the Los Angeles Lakers none other than… The Best Signing Ever! (You can tell it’s a slow day in sports where this is the most exciting news, at least in my eyes. Maybe I’m just as pathetic as I believe).

You may have read my thoughts on the Nomar Garciaparra trade, and thus you may know that I am vastly opposed to it. Today, Nomar went 1-4 with a key RBI in the Cubs seventh inning rally that led them to victory. Orlando Cabrera hit a home run in his first at bat with the Red Sox, winning my love for a couple hours, before promptly committing the error that put the Twins up for good in the eighth inning (so much for improving our defense, huh Theo?). It’s hard to fault Cabrera too much, he did have his home run and Timlin and Embree aren’t supposed to suck so bad, and I’m really being unfair in being so judgmental so quick… but it’s just hard to look at Nomar winning and us losing, even if it just one game after the trade. In brighter news, the showdown between Johan Santana and Pedro Martinez was everything it was cracked up to be. Check out these lines… Johan: 8 IP, 2 H, 3 R, 2 ER, 1 BB, 12 K, 2 HR Pedro: 7 IP, 7 H, 2 R, 2 ER, 1 BB, 11 K, 0 HR Ridiculous. Pedro left the game with the lead, but the bullpen was unable to hold on. Johan pitched a better game, but did give up the two longballs while Pedro got out of a few gems. What could’ve made this matchup better? If I wasn’t tracking it’s progress over a computer and got to watch hitters get baffled left and right on television (or better yet, in person). Alas, we can’t all get what we want… right Nomar?

Up until early Saturday morning, it appeared as though this was going to be one of the most uneventful trading deadlines in recent memory. And then everything blew up. Right in my face. In a four-way blockbuster, the Cubs acquired Nomar Garciaparra and minor-leaguer Matt Murton, the Red Sox got Orlando Cabrera and Doug Mientkiewicz, the Twins got minor-leaguer Justin Jones, and the Expos got Alex Gonzalez, and minor-leaguers Francis Beltran and Brendan Harris. First of all, I can’t believe how Cubs GM Jim Hendry pulled this off. Even though rumors of Nomar being traded to the Cubs had died down recently, when the rumor was at its peak it was always reported to be a Nomar-for-Clement deal, because the Cubs had extra starting pitching coming out the woodwork and the Red Sox had some holes to fill. The Twins got a nice pitching prospect in return for a defensive first baseman who was a spare part on their roster with the emergence of Justin Morneau, and the Expos got a glut of prospects for just Orlando Cabrera. Now, keep in mind, the Nomar Garciaparra the Red Sox just traded is the same Nomar Garciaparra that could’ve snagged Magglio Ordonez in the offseason, and was rumored in Matt Clement trades for a large part of the season. All of a sudden, all Theo Epstein can get for him is Orlando Cabrera and Doug Mientkiewicz? Why don’t you just stick a giant spear through my heart while you’re at it Theo, or are you too busy negotiating a $60 million contract extension for Derek Lowe? Before I get into what the Red Sox added, let’s take a long, hard, and FINAL look at what they’ve given away. Nomar Garciaparra was long considered a franchise guy, the kind of player you keep around forever to be the face of your team. He was Red Sox for life, no doubt in anyone’s mind. Somewhere along the line, through all the injuries and all the trade rumors, the relationship between Nomar, the city of Boston, and the Red Sox ownership seemed to fade away, and he became just another player. He was no longer the face of the franchise, we had guys like Ortiz and Ramirez who were the top producers and Kevin Millar becoming the clubhouse leader with his cries to “Cowboy Up!” Before his practically non-existent 2001 season, he was a .350/.420/1.020 hitter – ridiculous production from the shortstop position. People who expected THAT Nomar to return are out of their minds. He’s getting older, and his statistics since his injury have been incredibly consistent. 2002: .310/.352/.880 2003: .301/.345/.869 2004: .321/.367/.867 Still, he’s one of the most potent offensive shortstops in the game. Over the past four years, Derek Jeter hasn’t had a year approaching those numbers, Edgar Renteria had one career year, and Miguel Tejada is the only one that has been close to Nomar. If you include Alex Rodriguez in the debate, he’s the hands down winner, but he’s a third baseman now. Essentially, Nomar is in the cream of the crop at shortstop, and the Red Sox practically gave him away because of a fading relationship and their belief that they wouldn’t be able to resign him. To be a little fair, and I’ve been trying my best to be fair so I could understand the logic behind this trade, the actual action of trading Nomar Garciaparra isn’t what burns a giant hole through my brain. In the offseason, when he was being spun in the Alex Rodriguez trade, people were completely ready to say farewell and start a new era. If you can get equal value for a guy that’s ready to walk at the end of this season, you make that deal. My problem is the supposed value the Red Sox got in return. Orlando Cabrera will fill Nomar’s hole at shortstop, and Doug Mientkiewicz provides depth at first base, not to mention that both players provide stellar defense. So what’s the problem? Neither player seems particularly capable at the plate, despite all their work with the glove. Orlando Cabrera had his BEST year in 2003, putting up a .297/.347/.807 mark in 626 at bats. He hit 17 home runs, had 80 RBI’s, and stole 24 bases (only getting caught twice). If I knew for an absolute fact that this was the Orlando Cabrera the Red Sox were getting, I would feel significantly better about this trade. Alas, it’s hard to be too optimistic considering Cabrera’s production this year. In 390 at bats, Cabrera has 4 home runs and 31 RBI’s. He has a .246 batting average. He is getting on base 29.8% of the time. He is slugging .336 and has put together a GIANT OPS of .634. In complete fairness, he has been one of the worst offensive shortstops this year, and I don’t exactly have high hopes of him suddenly turning it around in Boston. Lots of people are saying that the change of scenery will help him as he’s finally able to get out of Montreal, and it may very well have some influence, but he’s not going to find a magic bat waiting for him at his locker in Boston. If he turns it around, I’ll be glad to be wrong, but it just doesn’t look very hopeful. Then, there’s Doug Mientkiewicz, who is a “daily Web Gem” as Baseball Tonight puts it. He provides a decent batting average and on base percentage, but doesn’t have the power that teams look for out of first base. In all honesty, I like the acquisition with Trot Nixon’s absence (which means Kevin Millar will be playing a lot more in right field), but obviously not at the cost. It also seems like we threw in prospect Matt Murton in the deal so that we could get Mientkiewicz, even though he was very likely an important part of the Red Sox future, possibly taking over in right field when Trot Nixon’s back just wouldn’t let him continue. A good acquistion, but like I said – at what price? Undoubtedly, this improves the Red Sox infield defense immensely. Errant throws to first base are likely to be snagged down, and tough grounders to shortstop are sure to be gobbled up. Outfield defense? Having Manny and Millar at the corners isn’t exactly an ideal situation, but it’s a product of our injuries. Theo Epstein says we’re more capable of winning the World Series now than we were before. He mentioned that he believes the future offensive performance of Cabrera and Mientkiewicz is going to do a fine job of making up for Nomar’s loss. Theo’s made a lot of good decisions (David Ortiz, Kevin Millar, Mark Bellhorn) and some bad ones (Jeremy Giambi, Jeff Suppan). This may be the young GM’s defining move, and I hope this is unheralded genius rather than obvious calamity. Really, I do.

Despite the fact that they are seven games out of the NL East race and eight out of the wild card, they went trigger happy at the trading deadline and acquired Victor Zambrano from the Tampa Bay Devil Rays and Kris Benson from the Pittsburgh Pirates. Don’t get me wrong, the trade definitely makes them better right now, but at what cost? The Mets coughed up a glut of prospects, and even with their new roster, they don’t strike me as a team that’s better than either the Braves, Phillies, or Marlins (more on them later). Unless Zambrano and Benson turn into bonafide aces overnight, odds are the Mets still aren’t going to make the playoffs this year, and probably not the next, and probably not anytime in the near future. They are just not a particularly good team, and have some big contracts that will prevent them from making any drastic changes for the better. Speaking of drastic, the Mets coughed up their top prospect to the Devil Rays to get the erratic Zambrano (although apparently if your name is Zambrano, you’re erratic by default). Scott Kazmir is now part of the Tampa franchise, and gives them their first legitimate pitching prospect in a long time. For all the Josh Hamiltons, B.J. Uptons, and Rocco Baldellis they’ve had, there haven’t been any Dontrelles or Oswalts to create a balance. Check out his career minor league stats (to the best of my knowledge): Single A Ball: 177 1/3 IP, 2.63 ERA, 230 K’s, 3.19 K/BB Double A Ball: 26 IP, 1.73 ERA, 29 K’s, 3.22 K/BB Shazam! What you’ve got here is a fireballing left hander who has succeeded at all levels of play (so far at least) and is only 20 years old. There are no sure things in the world of pitching prospects – Todd Van Poppel says hello – but you don’t give up that kind of potential for the following… 128 IP, 107 H, 96 BB, 109 K, 4.43 ERA, 1.59 WHIP Ridiculous. I’m waiting for the official word on rumors that Jim Duquette has traded David Wright for Ron Villone and a player to be named later. You heard it here first, folks, all GM’s with the last name Duquette are morons! Seemingly every trade in the works has some prospects going to some bad team in return for a rent-a-player that comes in for the playoff race. Rarely do you see two teams in contention swapping players, both in the hopes of continuing to push for their division crowns. That’s why the Dodgers-Marlins trade struck me as incredibly odd, as both teams took a big hit to their team chemistry just so they could make these upgrades. The Marlins sent Hee Seop Choi, Brad Penny, and minor leaguer Bill Murphy to the Dodgers for Guillermo Mota, Paul Lo Duca, and Juan Encarnacion. Let’s look at this from the Marlins point of view first. Losing Penny takes a big chunk out of the rotation, namely because he’s probably the only truly proven commodity that they had. He’s a 200 innings, 4.00 ERA, 140 K’s, 14 wins kind of guy that’s also proven that he can win the big games (see: 2 wins in last year’s World Series). The Marlins are taking a big risk with their rotation now, hoping that Josh Beckett and A.J. Burnett stay healthy, Dontrelle Willis can start missing bats again, and that Carl Pavano resigns for next year. Penny was a stabilizing presence in the rotation, and my guess is that when Josh Beckett goes on the DL for the 89th time in his career later this year, he will be sorely missed. Choi is another guy that will be missed, even if the Marlins don’t realize it. He’s posting a very respectable .270/.388/.883 line in 281 at bats this year. The thing that’s been killing the Marlins all year is that he has just 40 RBI’s in those at bats, primarily because of a woeful .234 BA with Runners In Scoring Position. Hitting in prime RBI spots in the lineup requires actually getting hits when RBI opportunities arise, and Choi hasn’t been doing that. Still, that first base hole is probably going to filled by Jeff Conine and Wil Cordero (when he comes off the DL), two guys who aren’t exactly giant upgrades over Choi. However, for their losses, they got some nice holes filled in return, namely in the form of ace reliever Guillermo Mota. Armando Benitez has been a rock in the closer’s spot, and Josias Manzanillo has been a decent setup guy, but the Marlins haven’t had anyone else of worth coming out of the bullpen. Mota transforms their bullpen from a weakness to a strength. This year, a disappointment compared to last year, he has put up the following: 63 IP, 51 H, 27 BB, 52 K’s, 2.14 ERA As an added bonus, he’s even tougher against lefties than righties which is important because Manzanillo absolutely cannot get lefties out (.313 BAA). The bullpen versatility makes the Marlins even more threatening, especially in a playoff series with their great starting pitching (assuming they get there). The other major hole that’s now filled is at catcher with Paul Lo Duca leaving the Dodgers franchise, his lifelong home, and becoming a Marlin. That spot in front of the umpire at Pro Player Stadium has been crying out, “Fill me! FILL ME!” since Ivan Rodriguez left for Detroit, and the Marlins have finally realized that the Mike Redmond/Ramon Castro platoon is not the answer. Lo Duca puts up very respectable stats for a catcher, and will be doing his part to fill some of the offensive hole left by Choi’s departure. With Juan Encarnacion coming over in the trade too, he can probably fill Conine’s spot in left field (with Conine going to first base), and the offense gets some much needed life injected into its veins. The Dodgers were apparently trying to spin this trade into a bigger blockbuster for Randy Johnson, but reports out of Arizona have made it clear that the D’Backs will not be trading the Big Unit, making the most influential trade deadline decision this year a non-move. Still, they’ve got a solid new arm in the rotation (does this mean the Hideo Nomo era is over?), and acquiring Choi means they can move Shawn Green back to the outfield. I think the trade is less one sided for the Marlins than most, but they definitely have the advantage. The trading deadline is dwindling down, so we’ll have to see if any other big moves are on the way. ***UPDATE*** Steve Finley is a Dodger! Details unknown, but I’ll try to keep the information coming for all three of you that are checking THIS site for updates.

The NFL gets a ton of credit for being the best league out there, and the MLB gets a lot of flack for not running things too well (see: All-Star tie fiasco). I personally think the MLB gets a bad rap most of the time... or at least I did... Suspensions were handed out on Thursday for the Red Sox-Yankees melee during their series last week, with the most notable suspensions going to Alex Rodriguez and Jason Varitek to the tune of 4 games each. Tanyon Sturtze got three games, and miniscule fines were handed out to Kenny Lofton, Curt Schilling, and David Ortiz. This was all well and good, until I realized the Trot Nixon and Gabe Kapler were both also suspended three games each. It’s interesting logic that Major League Baseball used to distribute these suspensions. Apparently, when Gabe Kapler was put into a chokehold and wrestled to the ground by Tanyon Sturtze, he broke some sort of rule that warranted a lengthy suspension, that hurts even more when you take into account that Trot Nixon was put on the DL and that extra outfielder becomes a necessity. Speaking of Trot, his efforts to jump into the fray with David Ortiz and get Strutze’s sleeperhold off of Kapler were seemingly equal to Ortiz’s efforts, yet he will miss three games as a result. Thankfully, the Red Sox can just pull him off the DL three days earlier than planned to use up the suspension, but it still eats up a roster spot that could prove to be valuable. You don’t want to declare Yankee bias too quickly in a situation like this, but it didn’t help matters much when Tim McCarver started slobbering all over Jeter, A-Rod, and the rest of the F’n Yankees during the brawl and tainting the perceptions of fans and baseball officials who, apparently, don’t have EYES!

You can imagine my surprise when a picture of USC Quarterback Matt Leinart popped up on my screen a few seconds after I hit enter, sending a wave of happiness through my body... COLLEGE FOOTBALL IS RIGHT AROUND THE CORNER! Thanks to my blessed ESPN Insider account, I can read 100+ lengthy previews for different teams, but the USC one is free of charge for all you wannabe Trojans out there. I’m not going to regurgitate all the wonderfully true facts the site lists in proclaiming USC as the early-season favorites for the national championship, but I would like to talk about one of the more interesting members of the team. Now, we all love Matt Leinart in Southern California, and he’s going to be a serious Heisman Trophy candidate this year (he was just a sophomore last year, good god!), but there’s a guy sitting on the bench who must’ve been born with quarterback tattooed across his chest, even if he hasn’t been able to show why yet. www.matrixar.com="http://usctrojans.collegesports.com/sports/m-footbl/mtt/booty_johndavid00.html">John David Booty! (Angry Huh?) Early in the season, when Leinart had a few struggles adjusting to the rigors of everyday college quarterbacking, chants of “Put in Booty!” echoed quietly in the more knowledgable areas of the Coliseum. People might know that he had ridiculous statistics in college (8,286 yards and 87 touchdowns in his last two seasons), but they might not know that he should be entering college NOW as opposed to last season. Booty graduated from Evangel Christian Academy one year EARLY, completing his final course (an English class) over the summer before enrolling at USC in the fall. Scouts from all across the nation agreed that his collection of skills and poise meant he was bound to be a special player one day. For all his hype, however, his first season was less than spectacular, which was to be expected from a quarterback who should’ve been a senior in high school. He attempted 14 passes, completing seven, and essentially wasted a year that probably should have been redshirted so that he would have more than one year to take over the starting quarterback spot when Leinart went off to NFL land. It’s kind of an interesting predicament to be in, and it’s a “problem” that almost any other program in the country would kill for. In the starter’s spot, there’s a proven commodity - a Heisman candidate, an accurate southpaw, and a guy who absolutely does not fold under pressure. By no means do you remove him from that spot unless he really free falls and turns into Brock Berlin (ZING to the Miami fans!). Still, you’ve got a guy sitting on the bench who is widely considered a better QB prospect for the NFL, and with the same amount of confidence and playing time may prove to be even more amazing than Leinart. Oh well, I’m sure all my worries will be for naught when we bring home another national championship to USC -- for that, I’d even let Steve Sarkisian take a few snaps if he was feeling nostalgic. And as a brief baseball side note... the Boston Red Sox got Borked. How this team can mount a 9th inning comeback against Mariano Rivera then get shut down by Dave Borkowski boggles the mind. Nay, borks the mind.

(Sort Of)SEO/titleSEO SEOcontent type='html'SEO Before this season, baseball experts everywhere had two answers when it came to the NL Central. Either the Cubs would run away with it, or the Astros would take charge with all their new acquisitions. I honestly cannot recall a single person predicting that the Cardinals would be competing for the division crown, let alone running away with it. Now, about 100 games into the season, the Cardinals have the best record in baseball. How’d that happen? Well, the Cards were victims of some major understatements regarding their lineup. Their offense has been absolutely spectacular, averaging 5.31 runs per game (2nd in the NL to the Rockies, who play in a sandbox) thanks to a glut of superstars and surprises. Scott “Keep On” Rolen in particular is establishing himself as a Hall Of Fame caliber third baseman, with his .327/.403/.988 stat line and 89 RBI’s (1st in the NL). He’s even gathering some MVP consideration, which seems fair enough with his play this season but is absolutely ridiculous when you take one look at what Barry Bonds is doing this season. (Side note: This is not a debate. Barry Bonds IS the MVP, regardless of how in love with Scott Rolen we all are and how great of a baseball player he is. Ignoring all statistics, the fact of the matter is this – pitchers are AFRAID to pitch to Barry Bonds, and they are not afraid of Scott Rolen. I repeat, this is not a debate.) Then there’s other established pieces of the offense continuing to produce, including Albert Pujols (29 HR, 1.050 OPS, Pronounced: POO-Holes according to ESPN.com) and Jim Edmonds (26 HR, 1.007 OPS, and 99 fabulous strikeouts), and Edgar Renteria (actually a disappointment with a .332 OBP in comparison to his fabulous 2003 season). Still, when you’re getting significant contributions from Reggie Sanders, Tony Womack, and a left-field platoon of Ray Lankford, John Mabry, and “Oh” So Taguchi, you know this is your season. And if that wasn’t convincing enough… The main reason people shrugged off the Cardinals and started slobbering all over the Cubs was because of their pitching staff. We all know the Cubs can throw out Prior, Wood, Clement, Zambrano, and Maddux, but that doesn’t mean victories when your team can’t score any runs. The Cardinals stepped right into this season with their pitching rotation of Matt Morris, Chris Carpenter, Woody Williams, Jeff Suppan, and Jason Marquis, puffed their chests out and said “Come on World, we’ll take you on!” … And so they have. Matt Morris is 11-6, Jeff Suppan is 9-6, Woody Williams is 7-6, Chris Carpenter is 10-4, and Jason Marquis is 11-4. The five of them have started just about all of the Cardinals’ games this season, and although none have been dominant, all five of have done the job. When the Cardinals get to the playoffs, I’m making the assumption that Suppan will be the one kicked to the curb for a 4-man rotation, because not only he is just not that good, he was absolute trash for Boston down the stretch last year and I still haven’t forgiven him. That means the Cards throw out Morris, Carpenter, Williams, and Marquis in a playoff series, which isn’t too bad. Morris is solid, and he’s got the potential to flick the switch on his stuff and be close to unhittable. Carpenter’s made a remarkable comeback from being horrible and hurt all the time, and Woody Williams is, well, no big deal. The key to the Cardinals pitching staff is Jason Marquis, acquired in the offseason in the J.D. Drew deal with the Braves. On Tuesday he won his 8th straight decision, his 11th of the season. In his career with the Braves, he really only had one exceptional season (2001: 3.48 ERA in 129 innings), and hadn’t been able to find the same magic the past two years. If he can keep this up, the Cardinals’ hopes will be much brighter, but there is reason for concern. He is giving up a boatload of hits, and he’s already reached 126.2 IP this season. His career high in innings, 129.1 in 2001, isn’t a large workload by any means, so St. Louis fans should worry about his arm falling off before the Cardinals reach the postseason. With their comfortable lead, they might be wise to rest Marquis as much as possible to keep his arm fresh for the postseason, where he will undoubtedly be pitching on little rest most of the time It’s either that, or you give his starts to Jeff Suppan in a playoff situation. You decide.

In my Red Sox mid-season review/preview, he got it worse from me than Derek Lowe, who had been truly god awful in the first half. He’d been picking things up somewhat during the month of July, but his explosion during the weekend series against those parasites (and the parasite-infected), the New York Yankees. His 3-day stats were dreamlike for guys like Manny and Ortiz, let alone Mr. Cowboy Up himself. For the series, he went 10-for-13 with 4 home runs (3 in one game), 8 RBI, 6 Runs, and one incredibly clutch single against Mariano Rivera in the July 24th epic. In those mere three days, his batting average went up .021 points, his slugging percentage went up .053 points, and more importantly, his trust meter went up approximately a trillion points. No longer shall I cringe when he beats an outside fastball into the ground because he’s trying to pull it or when he whiffs at a breaking ball inside because he can’t seem to even see the ball… because these things will NEVER happen again! Forget Barry Bonds, we’ve got Kevin Millar!!! (The only thing that fluctuates more than Derek Lowe’s confidence meter is my love meter – you might call it overreacting but I call it baseball romance). In the basketball world, it appears as if the Mavericks have switched gears from meaningful pursuit of dominant big men to worthless trades of no consequence. They traded undersized center / rebounding machine Danny Fortson to the Sonics for Calvin Booth, who at face value has no redeeming qualities. Sure, he may block a shot or two, but I sincerely hope the Mavs don’t think they’ve found the answer at the center spot. I’m getting queasy right now because I get this horrible feeling that they do. The funniest story of the weekend (and perhaps the whole damn year) was Ricky Williams’ abrupt retirement from football. It’s funny that he’s going to spend his life traveling across the world, and it’s funny that he’s pretty much admitted to being a giant pothead, but the funniest part about the whole situation is how badly Williams screwed over the entire Dolphins franchise with his timing. He retires a couple weeks earlier, and the Dolphins can go after Eddie George. He retires at the end of the season, and the Dolphins can try to draft Steven Jackson or Julius Jones. Instead, Williams calls it quits right before mini-camps begin, and Dave Wannstedt is immediately diagnosed with a fatal “What The Hell Do I Do Now” disorder. Thank you Ricky Williams, for changing the Dolphins fortunes – now instead of being a disappointing franchise year after year, they won’t even resemble a football team. Miami can’t complain too much though, they did pick up some guy named Shaquille a couple weeks ago. Maybe he can play some running back… SEO/contentSEO SEO/entrySEOSEOentrySEO SEOidSEOtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-my.post-mySEO/idSEO SEOpublishedSEO2004-07-25T16:18:00.000-04:00SEO/publishedSEO SEOcategory scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='ANDRE MILLER basketball'/SEO SEOtitle type='text'SEOThe Lefty Pedro?SEO/titleSEO SEOcontent type='html'SEOOne of my guilty pleasures in baseball is latching onto young pitchers on other teams that are just oozing with potential. I hop onto the Josh Beckett, Ben Sheets, Mark Prior, and Oliver Perez bandwagons with reckless abandon and claim them as my own. Perhaps my favorite adoptee of the group is Twins lefthander Johan Santana. Over the past couple years he’s gone from developing reliever to dominant starter with the aid of a deadly fastball-changeup combo (sound familiar?). With his nasty stuff, he was bound to get into the rotation sooner or later, but establishing his control of the strike zone makes him damn near unhittable and makes him a top starter in the game (sound familiar yet?). I’ve heard Santana be compared to lots of pitchers, but when I read an article referring to him as a Lefty Pedro Martinez, my immediate reaction was, “BLASPHEMY! YOU SPEAKETH THE LORD’S NAME IN VAIN AND YOU SHALT SUFFER!” After I calmed down, I decided to take a closer look. Johan obviously isn’t Pedro yet, but at this point in his career, he isn’t really that far off. It’s a bold statement to compare young Johan to Lord Pedro, but in an age-by-age comparison, the debate becomes very interesting. The way both pitchers have progressed at the beginning of their careers makes the similarities a little clearer. From ages 23-25, Pedro Martinez was a developing starter for the Montreal Expos after starting out with the Dodgers as a bullpen/spot starter guy.

Because of this, I’d like to extend my condolences to Mark Blount, Joel Przybilla, Etan Thomas, Rafael Araujo, Emeka Okafor, Eddy Curry, Zydrunas Ilgauskas, Jeff Foster, and all other Eastern Conference centers. You’re all in for a long, long season. Shaquille O’Neal was officially sworn in as a member of the Miami Heat on Tuesday in a ceremony so extravagant you’d think Miami had already won the NBA title. The Big Diesel rolled up to his press conference in – what else – a big diesel. There were lots of jokes (“running down the beach naked”) and bold declarations (“I will bring a championship to Miami”), but it was also the first time in a few years I’ve seen Shaquille O’Neal in a good mood. Maybe in an interview he would crack a joke, but the past two years have been generally show up, play, and go home for Shaq. People want to point to a single cause for Shaq’s attitude and thus the eventual downfall of the Lakers, but it’s a combination of lots of things. Ownership issues such as Jerry West’s departure and Jerry Buss’ inability to understand what wins NBA championships, combined with disappointing play from his teammates drove O’Neal to… pretty much not care. In the NBA Finals vs. Detroit, as a result of the helplessness of his teammates, Shaq had to pretty much try to do it all himself, and did as much as he could. If I hear one more person tell me how the Detroit Pistons were able to control Shaq, I’m going to throw them into a mirror Marty Jannetty Style. They couldn’t stop him, they were just able to stop every one of his teammates, namely Kobe Bryant because Tayshaun Prince is a distant cousin of Stretch Armstrong. The only person in the past couple years that has really held his own against Shaq is Yao Ming, and he’s chillin’ in the West with T-Mac, ready to emulate the talented scoring 2-guard / dominant center routine in Houston. Now the big man is the East, and if I were an opposing coach I would douse my backup point guard in Worcestershire Sauce and hope to lure the incredibly large and incredibly hungry man in the Miami uniform towards him, instead of towards the basket, ball in hand and anger-filled grimace in full effect. Do you have a better idea?

The free agent signings are in full effect, and one of the most interesting ones is Derek Fisher going to the Golden State Warriors (Shaq who? Kobe what?). On Around The Horn the other day, they had a showdown question about Fisher, asking which team lost the most when Fisher signed with Golden State, and I think the choices were the Rockets or the Heat.

Keith Foulke (2-2, 14 Saves, 4 Blown Saves, 1.50 ERA, 0.94 WHIP) For the Yankee fans out there, I’d like you to think about the feeling you get when Mariano Rivera enters a game. For the Dodger fans, I’d like you to think about the feeling you get when Eric Gagne enters a game. For the Indians fans out there, I’d like you to think about the feeling you get when you have an eleven run lead over your opponent. Friends, that is the feeling I get when Keith Foulke enters a game. It’s not necessarily that Keith Foulke is as good as any of the aforementioned pitchers, but rather a lingering effect of last year’s closer-by-committee experiment. Foulke is just a tiny, miniscule, almost non-existent notch below the league’s elite closers, but I have complete faith that he’ll come true when the Red Sox really need it. His 1.50 ERA right now might even be a little bit inflated right now because of a recent stretch of poor outings. In the month of June, he’s had a 3.12 ERA over 8.2 innings, compared to an 0.60 ERA in April, 1.54 ERA in May, and 1.42 ERA in June. Forget Rolaids, F-O-U-L-K-E spells Relief. Mike Timlin (4-3, 3.50 ERA, 1.10 WHIP) Mike Timlin is the Tim Wakefield of the bullpen. You know exactly what you’re going to get out of him – sustained excellence marked by a handful of unsuccessful 1 IP, 3 ER’s on the Game Log. I really have no idea what else to say. Alan Embree (2-1, 4.76 ERA, 1.26 WHIP) Alan Embree, more than Derek Lowe, is the one pitcher I have almost no faith in. He is the anti-Foulke. I have this neverending vision of him coming to face a lefty in a tight spot, giving up a single, then getting crushed by the string of righties that follow. He enters a game, and a successful inning is considered a godsend instead of the expected outcome. I’d like to take this opportunity to voice my opinion for the most necessary trade that the Red Sox have to make. Forget Carlos Beltran, Randy Johnson, or anything else. Since Lowe is going to bounce back into Cy Young form (obviously), the one guy to go after is none other than Eddie Guardado. That dominant lefty in the pen means dominant pitching performances by Curt and Pedro in the playoffs won’t go unappreciated. Scott Williamson (0-0, 1.25 ERA, 0.88 WHIP) As evidenced by last year’s postseason run, Big Willy can be absolutely monstrous when his body is cooperating. He pitched every game in the ALDS vs. Oakland, and did so masterfully. Only in the fifth game, where he promptly walked two when he entered the game because of being overworked, did he show any signs of weakness. Against the Yankees, he saved all three of the Red Sox victories, and ended the postseason with a 1.13 ERA in 8 innings. The only problem is, his body is rarely cooperating, which leaves a lot of doubt and worry. If he’s in there at full health, he’s got Foulke-level faith from me, but otherwise he’s reduced to Leskanic-level confidence. Speaking of Big Curt… Curt Leskanic (1-4, 6.00 ERA, 1.89 WHIP) What a steal! Since joining the Red Sox, Leskanic has thrown 11 1/3 sexy innings, putting up a 2.83 ERA. He’s only really gotten into trouble in two of his ten outings so far, giving up a pair of runs to the Yankees (the 13 inning masterpiece of a game) and the Angels (an 8-1 loss). My only issue with Leskanic? He went to LSU, the fake national college football champions.

A combination of injuries and players coming back to reality have put the brakes to the juggernaut of bats, but the pitching has stepped up in response. The goal of the offseason was to soup up the arms, and with a couple key acquisitions (and in spite of a couple key disappearances), the Sox have done that. No awards this time around, let’s just check out what these pitchers have been doing so far. Pedro Martinez (10-3, 3.64 ERA, 1.15 WHIP) The Arm of God isn’t quite the Arm of God anymore, but he’s still my favorite baseball player of all time, and more than any other pitcher in baseball, I have no doubt that if the team needs a win, Pedro can go out and get that win. It’s obvious that Pedro doesn’t have the stuff he once did, as evidenced by his consistently declining K/9 and K/BB rates. His 8.73 K/9 this year represents the first time that number has fallen below 9 since 1995, and his K/BB rate is his lowest since ’96. People are hitting him more, getting on base more, and slugging higher… but I’ve lost no faith. Why? BECAUSE HE’S PEDRO MARTINEZ! Nothing the man can do will taint my opinion of him or my faith in him. He’s like Wally Szczerbiak multiplied by ten trillion, and with better hair. Curt Schilling (11-4, 3.16 ERA, 1.16 WHIP) The big non-Foulke acquisition of the winter has come through bigtime (so far). He’s been the self-proclaimed workhorse we all thought he’d be (110 Pitches per Start). He’s been baffling hitters at the ripe age of 37 (118 K’s in 125.1 IP). But what’s the most exciting part having Curt Schilling on your team? The man is clutch. Should we get to that oh-so coveted postseason (and I will continue to assume that we will), Curt is bound to shine. For his career, he’s sporting a 5-1 record, 1.66 ERA, 0.84 WHIP, and of course, a World Series Ring. Isn’t that the point of it all, anyway? Derek Lowe (7-9, 5.67 ERA, 1.70 WHIP) Derek, oh Derek. Wherefore art thou, Derek? More than most Red Sox fans I know, I refuse to give up on Lowe. I don’t know why I refuse to let go on this dream that I have that the 2002 Lowe is an attainable Lowe, but if I’ve come this far, I’m not about to stop. It’s gotten to the point where statistics are useless; I can pretty much sum them up by telling you that they are all incredibly bad. He’s had great starts (see: the gem in Coors Field), but he’s had some complete implosions too. Maybe it’s mechanics, maybe it’s the confidence meter (my theory), or maybe he’s just not the same pitcher he once was. Either way, I’m not ready to give up. I’m a victim of my loyalty, except when it comes to Kevin Millar. He can go away. Tim Wakefield (5-5, 4.17 ERA, 1.36 WHIP) Before I begin, I’d like to point out that Tim Wakefield went to the Florida Institute of Technology. If that’s not the next college baseball powerhouse, then I don’t know what is. Wakefield is the Jason Varitek of the Red Sox pitching rotation. In seasons where he’s been a regular starter as opposed to splitting time between the rotation and the bullpen, he’s had ERA’s of 2.95 (1995), 5.15 (’96), 4.25 (’97), 4.58 (’98), 4.09 (’03), 4.17 (so far in ’04). He pitches about 200 innings, strikes out about 140, and gives up his share of home runs and walks. Although his season totals always end up pretty much the same, what makes Wakefield so special are those nights when the knuckleball is on, and every batter turns into Neifi Perez. When he’s on, he’s absolutely baffling, and that kind of potential is what makes him so brilliant in the postseason, as witnessed by last year’s performance in the ALCS against the Yankees. Bronson Arroyo (3-7, 4.09 ERA, 1.27 WHIP) The fifth starter spot was supposed to belong to Byung Hyun Kim, but injuries and apparent self-destruction have made him a non-factor. Regardless, Arroyo has been a very pleasant surprise, although he possesses some interesting splits. At Fenway, opponents are hitting .292 off Arroyo (5.27 home ERA), but only .206 off him away from Boston (3.06 road ERA). This poses an interesting scenario for potential playoff rotations, because Arroyo’s fantastic road splits coincide well with Derek Lowe’s atrocious road splits. It’s more likely that Arroyo will be used in a long relief role in the playoffs, but in a situation where he needs to make a spot start (heck, John Burkett got one last year), Arroyo can be pushed to the home start while Lowe starts on the road. Although he’s been equally terrible everywhere this year (.288 BAA at home vs. .316 BAA on road), his career splits have been much better (.227 BAA vs. .273 BAA ~ 2.70 ERA vs. 4.41 ERA). On top of Arroyo’s solid 6.85 K/9 and 2.39 K/BB, the man is to righties what all left hands are to Trot Nixon. On the year, righties are hitting .226 off him, and slugging a giant .381. Not bad for a #5, now is it? Relief Pitchers Tomorrow, and we can move on from boring baseball talk and onto beach volleyball discussion! Hooray for Misty May and Kerri Walsh!

A combination of high hopes and media frenzy may mark the Red Sox current standing as a disappointment, but that isn’t necessarily true. Why focus just on the Red Sox? Well, no matter what anyone says, the Yankees-Red Sox megabattle is the most interesting story in baseball, steroids or no steroids, Clemens or no Clemens, Bonds or no Bonds. At 46-36, the Sox are 10 games over .500 at the break, which for any other team would be reason for celebration, but is instead being looked at with disdain. Let’s take a look at the team’s individual parts so far, and see if we can figure out just what’s going on and what happens from here. Just for fairness, everyone on the team will win some kind of an award so that we can all keep our spirits up. (Stats listed are BA/OBP/OPS). Catcher: Jason Varitek (.275/.379/.818) and Doug Mirabelli (.306/.367/1.034) Mister Consistent (aka Boring): Jason Varitek. Every year is essentially the same from J-V. Respectable batting average, solid OBP and SLG from the catcher spot, and exceptional pitcher management and defense. Next to Pedro Martinez, he’s the future free agent that I think should be the top priority this summer, excluding the always annoying Boras influence. He is 32, but he has only 772 games under his belt through eight years in the bigs, partially due to his injury in 2001. Most catchers decline early, but I think he’s got enough left in the tank for at least three more solid years. He better, anyway, because Kelly Shoppach isn’t the answer to any question except “Who is the Pawtucket Catcher of the Future?” Best Backup Catcher in Baseball Award: Doug Mirabelli. I’d like to take this opportunity to plead – nay, DEMAND – more playing time for Mr. Mirabelli. Being relegated to catching Tim Wakefield not only limits his knowledge of our other pitchers in an emergency, but it limits the amount of rest J-V can get. Mirabelli’s bat is more than capable at the backup catcher spot, and should be get the occasional start against lefties whenever possible. First Base: Kevin Millar (.280/.361/.762) and Dave McCarty (.229/.317/.698) Most Disappointing Hitter: Kevin Millar. Trade him, bench him, demote him, do something. Seriously. Package him and a mid-level prospect for a bag of rice to feed David Ortiz. I’m begging you, Theo, this is the one part that’s gone horribly, horribly wrong. Or maybe I’m overreacting. No wait, I’m not. The Doug Mientkiewicz Memorial: Dave McCarty. Can’t hit, slick fielder, somehow not disliked. What is going on here? Do any other playoff contenders have a fat, glaring hole at one of the premier offensive positions? The Giants do, but whatever they lack, they make up for in Bonds-mania. This blows my mind. Second Base: Mark Bellhorn (.268/.388/.831) and Pokey Reese (.234/.276/.599) Most Pleasant Surprise: Mark Bellhorn. The Red Sox essentially acquired Mark Bellhorn in return for a helping of grits, and have been blessed with a charge in the offense at a position where we were thought to be the weakest. He’s drawn 61 walks, most among major league 2nd basemen, and has also struck out 96 times, also most among major league basemen. His 57.4 Runs Created put him right above Alfonso Soriano and right below Mark Loretta among 2nd basemen. Keep in mind, the man makes $490,000 for all this contribution. He’s bang for the back fo’ sheezy, not to mention the fact that his facial expression hasn’t changed in three months. Putting Bellhorn in the #2 spot in the lineup can generate some important RBI opportunities for the big guns in the middle of the lineup, and allows a player like Bill Mueller to slide to the #7 or #8 spot, where he feels more comfortable. Not to mention, that while his bat does a solid job of filling the hole left by Todd Walker from last season, his defense ain’t too shabby either. Errors seem to hit him in bunches, but that’s a result of concentration rather than skill. Most Obscene Glove: Pokey Reese. … and speaking of Defense. As you can see, Pokey’s offense, as expected, leaves a lot to be desired, most notably hits. His performance at the plate is even below his career marks (.599 OPS this year vs. .662 OPS all-time). But damn, I wish there were a legitimate and proven way of quantifying the exact worth of defense, because it’s kind of misleading when you see him save two runs with one gigantic leaping snag. All that goes through your mind is OMG OMG WTF THAT WAS CRAZZAZAZAY POKEY IS GOD POKEY POOOOKEY, and you might overvalue it, but who knows. All I know for sure is that it’s a joy to see him flash the leather. Shortstop: Nomar Garciaparra (.327/.365/.889) Most Enigmatic Future: Nomar Garciaparra. If Nomar can be spun for Randy Johnson, I say spin him. If not, keep him here and let him play out the season. He is still one of the top shortstops in the game, no matter how much ridicule Red Sox fans give him. Just three years ago, he was THE SYMBOL of Red Sox Nation, but injuries have hurt not only his game but his stature. I don’t want to be over-sentimental, but if we can win a World Series with Nomar instead of trading him for hired guns, it would be so much sweeter. The Red Sox of 1999 made the ALCS essentially with Pedro, Nomar, and nobody else, and if they are both here when the championship heads this way, it will just feel… right. Hey, it’s not like he’s stinkin’ up the joint either – look at those stats! Third Base: Bill Mueller (.285/.359/.801) and Kevin Youkilis (.287/.397/.832) Most Unlikely To Repeat: Bill Mueller. Another victim of not very many at-bats, Mueller has done well in his limited time, although not nearly as well as last year’s anomaly. It makes me wonder if any other 32-year-old in the history of baseball set career highs in just about every offensive category at that age. Something tells me… NO! Rookie Of The Year: Kevin Youkilis. The Greek God Of Walks came, and The Greek God Of Walks conquered… sort of. His stint with the Sox ended recently, as he was sent down to Pawtucket to make room for the return of the previously non-existent Ramiro Mendoza, but he played a significant role in the Sox lineup in Mueller’s absence and I believe he’ll make more contributions before the season is over. He also is an important part of my ideal pitcher-abuse lineup on days when Bill Mueller gets some rest. If you stick Jason Varitek at 7th in the order, Youkilis at 8th, and Bellhorn 9th, the three monsters of Pitches per Plate Appearance will burn a hole in the opponent’s pitch count. Gotta love it. Left Field: Manny Ramirez (.344/.437/1.119) MVP! MVP! MVP!: Manny Ramirez. What more do you want the man to do? He’s been absolutely tearing the cover off the ball all year long, a particularly amazing feat considering the pre-season trade rumors and constant media scrutiny. Sure, he’s overpaid, but at least he produces. He is, and let me take a deep breath before I rattle this out… 1st in the AL in OPS, 1st in HR’s, 2nd in RBI’s, 4th in BA, and 6th in Walks. Technically, he has the highest OPS in the majors, because counting Barry Bonds is just unfair at this point. He is the offense, and the Red Sox would be nowhere without his presence at the cleanup spot. Plus, he took Clemens yard in the All-Star game… oh wait, so did everyone else. Neeeeevermind. Center Field: Johnny Damon (.321/.401/.889) Voted “Best Hair”: Johnny Damon (that’s right I’m out of jokes). As the leadoff guy, I’d like to see Johnny Damon get on base. The past two years (his only two with Boston), he’s posted OBP’s of .356 and .345. This year’s .401 OBP is really stacking the table for the big boys, and represents a remarkable resurrection in Damon’s career. Get it? Resurrection? Like Jesus? Nevermind… Right Field: Trot Nixon (.231/.307/737) and Gabe Kapler (.266/.313/.680) The Second Half “Wait And See”: Christopher Trotman Nixon. We haven’t gotten enough time with Trot to form a logical opinion about what we can expect for the rest of the season. However, I think we can assume that Trot will continue to turn into Pokey Reese against lefties, which is why the second half of the Right Field collection is so important. But while he’s stinking it up against the southpaws, I also fully expect him to be Bonds-lite against righties. I will except no less! The “Looks Like He Could, But Can’t” Memorial: Gabe Kapler. He looks like he would be in The Natural, but plays like he should be in Bull Durham. I think that’s saying enough, even though it leaves me wanting so much more. DH: David Ortiz (.304/.354/.954) Most Likely To Give You A Great Big Hug: David Ortiz. A lot of people expected Ortiz to come back down to Earth a little bit after last year, but instead he’s strapped on the jet packs and risen even further. Part of his growth as a hitter has to do with the fact that he’s really improved his ability vs. lefties (you listening Trot?). Last year, in 116 AB’s vs. Lefties, Ortiz managed a .216/.260/.674 line. Yuck. This year, 116 AB’s vs. Lefties (how ironic), Ortiz is putting up .267/.289/.729. Hey, it’s an improvement, and he should only get better with more experience. Whether he deserves to be in the #3 hold against lefties, however, is another argument altogether. Tune in tomorrow for the pitchers, and some general observations for the future!

Allow me to elaborate... 1995 NBA Playoffs: For the first time in his career, Michael Jordan commits a turnover in crucial situation (driving down the court for the winning basket) in a deciding playoff game, and the Bulls go down to the Orlando Magic... 2006 NFL Playoffs: For the first time in his career, Tom Brady commits a turnover in a crucial situation (driving down the field for the winning score) in a deciding playoff game, and the Patriots go down to the Indianapolis Colts... 1995 NBA off-season: The Bulls, re-tooling for another championship run (it's been two years since they last won a title), make a questionable deal, trading a pittance (Will Perdue) for controversial figure Dennis Rodman, knowing that his particular abilities (rebounding, post defense) complement their current roster incredibly well... 2007 NFL off-season: The Patriots, re-tooling for another championship run (it's been two years since they last won a title) make a questionable deal, trading a pittance (a fourth-round pick) for controversial figure Randy Moss, knowing that his particular abilities (making ridiculous catches) complement their current roster incredibly well... 1995-96 NBA Regular Season: A rejuvenated Michael Jordan (thanks to his year and a half of baseball- and/or gambling-motivated rest) wins the scoring title, wins another MVP award, and leads the Bulls to an NBA-record 72 wins and another NBA title... 2007 NFL Regular Season: A rejuvenated Tom Brady (thanks to his new receiving corps) is on pace to win an MVP award, set all kinds of NFL records, lead the Patriots to an undefeated regular season and take home another Super Bowl... A valid comparison, no? I emailed this to Simmons today, so I wonder what he thinks of it. The new Kanye (lyrics above) is pretty sick, by the way...

It's the latest "literally" fiasco (coming on the heels of a text message from Side this morning: "O.J. gets away with murder...literally"--you're literally killing me, Side). Check this gem from Nick Webster on the wonderful FoxSports.com (granted, it was more than a week ago, but I have a lot to read, so I'm not always on top of it): Well, in my humble opinion, he played the finest game an American outfield player has ever produced in the Premier League as he literally carried the Cottagers on his shoulders to a surprising and dramatic late draw. I watched that Tottenham match, and while I did see Clint Dempsey rack up a goal and two assists in Fulham's comeback draw, I don't recall him placing ten other dudes on his shoulders and walking around with them at any point during the match. Herculean feats of strength notwithstanding, the pride of Nacogdoches, Texas has been amazing lately. So he picks up the goal and two assists against Tottenham. Then he joins up with the national team and scores against Brazil. Then he's recognized as www.matrixar.com="http://www.fulhamfc.com/Club/News/NewsArticles/2007/September/PlayerofMonthDempsey.aspx">Fulham's Player of the Month. Pretty good couple weeks, right? Is there a better American footballer right now than Clint Dempsey? I fell in love with Deuce (no, not literally) when he was a rookie with the New England Revolution. His goals and celebrations (several are viewable www.matrixar.com="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EL3EgG5l9eE">here--the dancing vs. Japan, the baseball swing vs. DC United, the stop drop n' roll against Chicago) with the Revs even allowed me to get video of him on Best Damn once or twice (the baseball swing at RFK was a genius touch) and while I was sad to see him leave MLS, I'm stoked that he's played his way into the starting lineup and is really proving himself in England. I'm hoping to make another pilgrimage across the pond in March, and though I've been there once already, Craven Cottage (Fulham's home) has to be one of the desired destinations (others include, but are not limited to: Anfield in Liverpool, St. James' Park in Newcastle and Stamford Bridge in London). One more Deuce note, because I don't think I mentioned it when it happened. At the end of last season, with Fulham struggling to stay up (relegation: if you don't get it, sorry, I'm not bothering to explain it), Clint grabbed www.matrixar.com="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hiHPV4sJdEY">the only goal in a 1-0 victory over Liverpool, a win which essentially kept Fulham in the Premier League. I know I don't really write about anything except soccer anymore, so I figure I should branch out a tiny little bit before closing up shop today. Since the fall television season technically kicks off next week, it makes sense to share a little bit of what I've been watching, what I'll be watching, and what I hear other people might be watching. STUFF I WATCH: Sunday: "Fox NFL Sunday" (don't have much choice, since I'm in the building and working on the show); various NFL games (again, because of my location; only Charger games by choice); "Curb Your Enthusiasm" (hasn't been very good so far this season, but I'll probably hang in there) is the HBO show du jour, since "Entourage" and "Flight of the Conchords" are done; and of course, I Tivo one or two Premier League matches (and maybe even something from Spain as well, if Barcelona or Real Madrid are playing) Monday: "Prison Break" (back in prison for the season premiere, which makes more sense than last season's on-the-run premise); "My Boys" just finished up its season, and for some reason I liked that show; eventually "24" take's Prison Break's place Tuesday: UEFA Champions League on ESPN2 and Setanta Sports Wednesday: more Champions League; waiting for "Lost" Thursday: Tried "Mad Men" for a couple of episodes, and it's really good, but I don't have time; "30 Rock" for sure; "My Name is Earl" lost some of its luster for some reason, but I'll give it another shot this season, as long as there's time Friday: "Psych" always gets Tivo'd and watched sometime over the weekend; www.matrixar.com="http://sports.espn.go.com/espn/page2/story?page=simmons/070919">Simmons says I need to try "Friday Night Lights," so maybe we'll give that one a shot Saturday: all kinds of English Premier League action from Fox Soccer Channel and Setanta Sports--usually I watch Newcastle, Fulham and Manchester United's matches in their entirety, and scan for goals from the other guys; MLS games on FSC, depending on the quality of the matchup (or if Chivas is playing) STUFF OTHER PEOPLE LIKE: "Heroes" - I'm sure I would like this, but it's another hour I don't have time for "The Wire" - Simmons worships this one, and a bunch of people in the office enjoy it as well; unfortunately, it's another hour I just don't have "The Office" - Every time I've watched this show, I love it (and I have the Season 3 DVD's to catch up on), but for some reason I never make time (probably because I'm already trying to watch one and half shows that night--never as they air, always on Tivo--and it's overwhelming to have more than that) "Rules of Engagement" - sorry, nobody likes that show, my bad "Grey's Anatomy" - mostly females, I think, and since a) I'm not female, and b) there's no female consistently watching television in my presence these days, I'm shying away from this one And yeah, that's about it. One thing before I go: I'm noticing that as I neglect this blog and as I struggle to write when I do occasionally pay it some attention, I'm only capable of expressing creativity in a certain number of venues at any given time. Unfortunately for the blog, those venues currently include my next Top 50 show (Dynamic Duos), Best Damn's daily shows (mostly the elements involving our new female cast member), and some pretty fun stuff with Chivas USA (all the Chivas USA features found www.matrixar.com="http://chivas.usa.mlsnet.com/sights/index.jsp?club=t120">here). Oh yeah, and some other writing on the side, which is a nice release as well (and may lead to something bigger, who knows). Done for today, back to work. Jose Mourinho out at Chelsea. Wow. Peace.

Contrary to the gruff exterior he's displayed for the vast majority of his career, Bonds seemed to embrace the moment (possibly his last glimmer of true acceptance on a national stage), soaking in his inferred role as host and even offering glimpses of personality. I was down on the field for batting practice (a day after the home run derby yielded no splashes in McCovey Cove, his first swing deposited one into the kayakers), and the buzz surrounding his every movement was incredible. I have never been a Barry Bonds fan (living in Los Angeles and rooting for the Padres would preclude me from such things), and of course he took PEDs (he's already admitted that, lest we forget), but to watch him swing in that cage, smile and wave to those fans, joke around with his teammates--maybe it was all an act, but he got me, if only for a couple hours. On the red carpet earlier in the day, he played the same cards, smiling and waving from the back of a truck with his wife and kids, thanking the fans and conducting a very humble, gracious interview with our own Rob Dibble. He really seemed to be taking in the moment, knowing how much he's still loved in that town (and probably nowhere else), and who knows, maybe regretting some of his behavior in the past ("Next question. Because it was stupid."). And oh yeah, the guy is on the cusp of breaking one of the most hallowed records in all of sports, and his commissioner might not even be there to see it happen. It'll still be a huge moment, but isn't it a sad state of affairs when everyone just wants A-Rod (the same A-Rod who has been endlessly skewered for cheating, on the field and off) to break the record, at least so a steroid user won't hold it? Baseball has gotten a lot wrong over the last decade-plus, and this record chase seems to be the culmination. Despite all the crap surrounding Bonds and 755, his role at All-Star Week was still pretty darn cool, and when he knocked all those batting practice balls out of the park, steroids or no steroids, division rivals or not, I was in awe. If anyone on the planet has endured more scrutiny over than Bonds the past few weeks (this is an exaggerated statement meant to limit the scope to the sporting world--yes, I'm certain that George Bush is scrutinized more than any athlete should be), then it would be David Robert Joseph Beckham, who made his Galaxy debut last night (that's "Galaxy" as a proper noun--he has been around the lower-case galaxy for almost 32 years) in front of a sold-out, shrieking and photograph-snapping crowd at HDC, a scene which pleasantly surprised the soccer fan in me. I think the best part about being there was getting to miss the ESPN coverage, which was guaranteed to be terrible (confirmation: I tried to watch it on TiVo when I got home and it was unbearable). Actually, the best part was just being there, and the atmosphere did not disappoint. I was more there to shoot Chelsea stuff, so I planted myself behind the end line just to the side of Joe Cannon's goal, followed Salomon Kalou around for awhile (he hung out with us at practice Thursday at UCLA), got a great look at Cannon's reaction save on Florent Malouda (Chelsea's wingers--are you kidding me? Malouda and Shawn Wright-Phillips started, Joe Cole subbed in, Arjen Robben sat) and some hard work from Ty Harden on Didier Drogba (the U-Dub kid played great), among other things. www.matrixar.com style="float:right; margin:0 0 10px 10px;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;" src="http://www.matrixar.com/_SIckb78QZD8/RqN7Zdr1fbI/AAAAAAAAAA8/CRr2IrnJaYM/s320/DSC00310.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5090047681254227378" /> The video restrictions allowed me to shoot only the first 15 and the last 15 minutes of the match (injury time is a bonus), so I took care of my Chelsea stuff early (Ashley Cole, who didn't play, and John Terry were the two other guys who spent time with us on Thursday) and then pretty much followed Beckham the rest of the way. A couple of Beckham and game-related observations, besides the craziness that surrounded his every move (no, I was not in the jostling throng that mobbed the bench when he came in--I was parked on the opposite end in peace): - his first ball was awesome, flicked on and almost a chance...when Beckham is given time and space like that (and MLS defenses are more than happy to provide), I think Alan Gordon, Carlos Pavon and company are going to be getting all kinds of service - hilarious that everyone cheered his first "touch," as the ball rolled over to him while he was stretching on the sidelines - minus Chris Klein, who had been red-carded Tuesday, Frank Yallop was able to field his full-strength squad for the first time all season, and though I know Chelsea wasn't going all out, it was still nice to see a few chances generated, and some great work from Cannon and the back four--Abel Xavier came up big on numerous occasions - tried to see if ESPN got Mourinho's reaction to the Terry goal, but I think they missed it (of course, they pretty much missed the fact that one of the world's greatest clubs was actually playing last night)--very strange to see him jump off the bench angrily and wave his players back, as if they shouldn't have been celebrating at all. He and his goalkeeper coach, Silvio something (he was kind enough to join in our Thursday shoot for a minute as well) were gesturing like crazy, either at Terry or at the whole team to just get back and play...kind of weird - the crowd impressed me. I was worried that it wouldn't be a real soccer crowd, but they cheered at the right times, gave Cobi the loudest ovation (other than Beckham), chanted and sang, and really sounded like a European crowd at times. It wasn't Old Trafford, but it was a way better atmosphere than the Arsenal-Fulham match I took in at Craven Cottage last year, and certainly better than any match I've been to in the U.S. - so stoked that Beckham did get to take a corner kick, and it was right in front of me (yes, I shot this video)...not important that it didn't result in anything, but important for him and the fans that he got to do something He wasn't running too well and didn't even think about tackling, so I'm guessing he won't be playing in these next few SuperLiga matches, but I left last night feeling very good about the Galaxy for the rest of this season, as long as they can find a finisher (someone other than Landon). Another random side story from last night: I had met a Chelsea season ticket holder after Tuesday night's game, a guy who now lives in Pasadena, works in La Canada, and whose kid is going to St. Francis in the fall (he actually used to coach at Franny, when Pete Vagenas was there). The dude, Mark, is from London, has lived here for like 16 years, but still has Chelsea season tickets, which is awesome. Basically, he told me that if (when) I want to head out there and catch a game, I just need to let him know. So I can get a free flight (thank you frequent flyer miles) and free tix; I just need a place to stay and I'm set for a little weekend jaunt to London. Anyways, I saw Mark again last night, just as I was explaining the ticket thing to Fox Soccer Channel buddy Zeus, and he tells me the random story: As he and his sons were parking their car, they parked next to a bunch of big guys, looked like football players. Mark had just watched the last five minutes of the Boise State-Oklahoma game with some friends the night before and recognized of of these dudes as Ian Johnson, the guy who scored the winning touchdown on the statue of liberty play and then proposed to his girlfriend (after Chris Myers spoiled it) on national television. Ian, as it turns out, is a Chelsea fan and a great dude. After that Fiesta Bowl game, somebody put him in touch with one of his heroes, Didier Drogba, and they had been emailing back and forth ever since. Drogba hooked him up with a bunch of tickets, and they were there for Johnson's bachelor party. They even had an extra ticket, which they offered to one of Mark's sons (the older one), because Mark came in one short. So he sent his 14-year old son off to enjoy the match with a dozen Boise State football players. At the end of the match, he gets himself back down to the media area, where we're talking again, and just then, Ian Johnson and friends walk by with John Terry, who now has Mark's son under his arm, walking into the Chelsea locker room. Pretty cool experience for a teenage kid, huh? Back to somewhat normal work this week (cutting the Chelsea practice feature for air on Tuesday), but I won't soon forget how fortunate I am to be able to experience this kind of thing--to do it twice in two weeks is pretty ridiculous.

It's a collection of b-sides that didn't make their last few albums, and thanks to a nice relationship with the label, I have myself a complimentary copy (it could theoretically be complementary too, like if it came with a little stand that matched or something) and I'm listening to it right now. On another note (the note that provided the impetus to post today), I had the pleasure (?) of taking in a 1-0 victory by the US National Team over Guatemala last Thursday night in the Gold Cup. Yes, we won, but it was a pretty underwhelming effort, and--Fox Soccer Channel is actually rebroadcasting the game right this second, I just noticed--was lowlighted by Oguchi Onyewu's ejection for a second yellow card (frustration built up from marking Carlos Ruiz all night). We added a 2-0 win over Terrible & Tobago (their first-choice players are in a contract dispute with the national federation, so they've got a bunch of scabs playing) on Saturday (I watched from my baseball-viewing seat at Fox and missed both goals) and look good for the quarterfinals (one more group match against El Salvador tomorrow). Eric and I were talking on the way in about the last time we had each seen the national team play, and we came up with a January 2000 friendly between the US and Iran (for some reason I fell asleep multiple times during this game, which ended in a 1-1 draw). I conveniently forgot about getting to see the team play twice in Korea in 2002, and it's with that in mind that I've decided to come up with a list of the best games I've ever had the pleasure of attending. It starts today with soccer and will hopefully extend to every other sport before too long... As I've started thinking about how to organize, this has become far too vast an undertaking for a list of just 10, so I'm putting them in reverse chronological order (16 games total), adding a few honorable mentions, and then I'll try to rank: 3/12/06 Manchester United 2, Newcastle United 0 (Rooney 8, Rooney 12) - Old Trafford (Manchester, England) - 67,858...being at Old Trafford (with B) was an amazing enough experience, but getting to watch my guy Alan Shearer (pretty much THE reason I'm a soccer fan today) and seeing Wayne Rooney net a brace (two goals, for the uninitiated) can't be overlooked 3/11/06 Reading 0, Watford 0 - Madjeski Stadium (Reading, England) - 23,724...boring game, but well played by Bobby Convey, and I had the best seat in the house--roaming the sidelines with my video camera. Got to meet and chat with Marcus Hahnemann, Convey and Jay DeMerit after the game as well 3/4/06 Arsenal 4, Fulham 0 (Henry 31, Adebayor 35, Henry 77, Fabregas 86) - Craven Cottage (London, England) - 22,397...best player I've ever seen in person: Thierry Henry. It wasn't even fair how much better he was than anyone else on the field 11/26/03 Santa Clara 1, Loyola Marymount 0 (Irvine 98) - LMU (Los Angeles, Calif.) -725...Eric scored the game-winner on a header off a crossbar rebound in the second round of the NCAA Tournament, and a massive celebration ensued. We had a great Eric-centric crowd at the game as well, family and friends, so it was pretty awesome 9/18/03 Santa Clara 2, CSU-Monterey Bay 0 (Irvine 40, Irvine 69) - Buck Shaw Stadium (Santa Clara, Calif.) - 507...I made the trip up to NoCal for a couple different things, the primary of which was getting to watch Eric start and score, and he did one of the two. His first was headed home off a cross from Wolfe, and his second slid past keeper off another cross. I think I saw all three of his goals this season 6/10/02 USA 1, Korea 1 (Mathis 24, Ahn Jung-Hwan 78) - Daegu World Cup Stadium (Daegu, Korea) - 60,778...incredible atmosphere, great performance by Brad Friedel, huge goal from Clint Mathis, a deserved tie 6/5/02 USA 3, Portugal 2 (O'Brien 4, Jorge Costa own goal 29, McBride 36, Beto 39, Agoos own goal 71) - Suwon World Cup Stadium (Suwon, Korea) - 37,306...nothing really needs to be said about this one, right? Sitting right behind the goal on which all three of our tallies were recorded, and in shock for every one. The neutral crowd started with chants of "Figo" and ended with "USA" 11/6/98 UCLA 3, UCSB 2 - UCSB (Santa Barbara, Calif.)...NCAA record for quickest goals scored by two teams--Gauchos scored to tie it up, Seth George scored from midfield on the kickoff, over the backpedaling, still-celebrating 'keeper, to give us the lead and the win 10/1/98 Galaxy 6, Burn 1 (Pena 10, Hermosillo 16, Cienfuegos 20, Hermosillo 32, Welton 41, Washington 47, Pena 69) - Rose Bowl (Pasadena, Calif.) - 10,047...Octavio Zambrano's team was the best offensive squad in league history, and this was one of its finest performances 2/10/98 USA 1, Brazil 0 (Preki 65) - Coliseum (Los Angeles, Calif.) - 12,298...greatest goalkeeper performance I ever saw (Kasey Keller), one of the greatest goals I've ever seen (Preki, as usual, cutting back to his left and letting one fly from outside the area), and great seats (thank you Marcelo Balboa, via Steve Shak) 12/14/97 UCLA 2, Virginia 0 (George 80, George 82) - UR Stadium (Richmond, Virg.)...NCAA Championship Game, almost anti-climactic after an amazing semifinal, but tremendous work by Matty Reis in goal to deny Brian West, Ben Olsen and cronies 12/12/97 UCLA 1, Indiana 0 3OT (Tennyson ?) - UR Stadium (Richmond, Virg.)...the Indiana native got the previously-undefeated Hoosiers in triple-OT, what a marathon 11/23/97 UCLA 3, Santa Clara 0...my Bruin friends against Joe Cannon's Broncos 11/2/97 UCLA 4, Duke 2...my Bruin friends vs. Josh Henderson, Jay Heaps, Gaston Haupert & co. 7/4/97 Galaxy 2, Revolution 0 (?) - Rose Bowl (Pasadena, Calif.) - 51,704...4th of July, installment number two 7/4/96 Revolution 1, Galaxy 0 (?) - Rose Bowl (Pasadena, Calif.) - 62,073...first MLS game, fireworks and 98 Degrees (the band, and the temperature, I think) Honorable Mention for games watched: 11/13/05 Galaxy 1, Revolution 0 (Ramirez 107) - Pizza Hut Park (Frisco, Tex.) - 21,193...Pando Ramirez, who had done nothing all season or all game, knocked in the game-winner after Matt Reis had punched out Landon's corner, giving us Cup No. 2 12/15/02 UCLA 1, Stanford 0 (Lopez 89) - Gerald J. Ford Stadium (Dallas, Tex.)...I still had a few friends on the team, most notably Ryan Futagaki, who sent in a cross that Aaron Lopez converted for the late game-winner 10/20/02 Galaxy 1, Revolution 0 (Ruiz 113) - Gillette Stadium (Foxborough, Mass.) - 61,113...finally, after years of post-season frustration, we broke through and won an MLS Cup, thanks to El Pescadito (and Tyrone Marshall) 10/12/01 Santa Clara 2, San Diego 1 (Irvine 45, Martin 60, Cronin 90)...(didn't actually watch this one--listened to it on the internet) freshman Eric scored the first goal of his career and assisted as buddy Steve Cronin (a goalkeeper subbed in late as a forward) scored the winner in the final minute. Great drama sitting by myself and listening 9/1/01 England 5, Germany 1 (Jancker 6, Owen 12, Gerrard 45, Owen 45, Owen 66, Heskey 74) - Olympic Stadium (Munich, Germany) - 63,000...dressed up in a jersey and headed to an English pub (I think it was the Princess Pub) and watched Beckham, Owen and friends romp to an easy win (maybe the country's best since 1966?) 5/26/99 Manchester United 2, Bayern Munich 1 (Basler 6, Sheringham 90+, Soleskjaer 90+) - Camp Nou (Barcelona, Spain) - 90,000...the greatest finish to a match maybe ever, and I was definitely rooting for the Red Devils here. Nothing to show for an entire match, and then two injury-time goals to just destroy the Germans (the face of Lothar Matthaus was unforgettable) 9/17/97 Newcastle United 3, Barcelona 2 (Asprilla 22, Asprilla 30, Asprilla 48, Enrique 72, Figo 88) - St. James' Park (Newcastle, England)...Shearer was injured, so Tino Asprilla stepped in and collected a spectacular hat trick, thanks in large part to the running and crossing of Keith Gillespie. This was one of the first times I knew I was a Toon fan, even without Shearer in the lineup Okay, so that's obviously way too much to digest (it took me two days to compile, and I'm sure I've forgotten a few things), but I think I can figure out a top ten (with a quick two-word summary): 10. Galaxy vs. Revolution on 4th of July '96 - FIRST. GAME. 9. UCLA vs. Indiana in the Final Four '97 - KEY. CLUTCH. 8. Santa Clara vs. LMU in the NCAA Tournament '03 - ERIC. WINNER. 7. Reading vs. Watford at Madjeski Stadium '06 - SIDE. LINES. 6. USA vs. Brazil at the Coliseum '98 - PREKI. KASEY. 5. UCLA vs. Virginia for the NCAA Championship '97 - MATT. REIS. 4. Arsenal vs. Fulham at Craven Cottage '06 - THIERRY. HENRY 3. USA vs. Korea at the '02 World Cup - FRIEDEL. MATHIS. 2. Manchester United vs. Newcastle United at Old Trafford '06 - ROONEY. SHEARER. 1.

One of the coolest traditions in the Premier League is the singing of "You'll Never Walk Alone" at Anfield by Liverpool fans (they do so on the road as well, obviously), and here's a great example (singing starts about 30 seconds in, after the guy stops talking): SEO/contentSEO SEO/entrySEOSEOentrySEO SEOidSEOtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-my.post-mySEO/idSEO SEOpublishedSEO2007-05-24T09:02:00.000-07:00SEO/publishedSEO SEOcategory scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='ANDRE MILLER basketball'/SEO SEOtitle type='text'SEOWarum?SEO/titleSEO SEOcontent type='html'SEO"So tell me why I gotta feel this way And tell me why I don't feel the same" --Why, Pt. 2, Collective Soul I never did hear "Why, Pt. 1," but I like this one enough, so I'm sure the original was great. It's just a shame that this band only has like one good song (that's a quote from Dave, nothing I would ever say myself, obviously). Okay, the relevance of the question asked in this morning's song lyrics (and in the heading, auf Deutsch): Yesterday morning at the Fox gym (what's a gym? oh, a gym), I went through the exact same routine I enact every time I'm there: I entered, scanned my badge, put my bag into locker 130, placed the lock on said locker, locked said lock, placed my iPod in my left pocket and my keys in my right and exited the locker room. I then placed my keys on the floor, in the corner by the lat pull machine (out of normal traffic), because who wants keys in their pocket while they're working out, right? And it's not like it's a super-crowded gym, where there's a risk of many sets of keys getting confused or of them getting kicked around or stolen or something. Or so I thought... I close out my workout (finishing things off with a 10-minute, 1-mile jog on the treadmill) and return to the scene of my key-dropping to retrieve them and head back into the locker room. No keys to be found. Quite vexing. It's possible that I picked them up before I went to the treadmill, I suppose, so I check that area, and again, no dice. Scanned all around the perimeter of the place (it's not very big, so that didn't take too long), and still, nothing to be found. Even took a look at the front desk to see if they had been dropped off up there. Nope. Ran into my friend Jerry, on the way in, and he suggested that I look in the back office. Actually, he first suggested that I not leave my keys on the floor (pointing to the key attached to his shoe as representation of a better idea), but while I appreciated his sentiment, that wasn't really helping me much at the time. The office is usually closed, but the door was ajar, so I poked my head in, and there, on the desk next to the employee with her back to me, were my keys. She was busy surfing the internet (as good gym employees are wont to do), so I grabbed them, said "I'm here to pick up my keys, thanks," and left. Now here's the why part. At what point do you, as a gym attendee, make the decision that those keys on the floor over there definitely don't belong to anyone still here in the gym working out? Why are they misplaced, not placed? How many people would actually be able to leave the gym and go to work without their keys? WHY did you put my keys in the office and make me a) think I was being very forgetful, b) question my own sanity--I know I put these here, and c) waste 10 valuable minutes of my time so I could walk aimlessly around the outside of the room? This is not something to get worked up about (capital letters notwithstanding), but I really can't understand what would bring someone to that action. If you see a set of keys sitting on the floor, the absolute worst thing that can possibly happen is that they sit there until the end of business hours and get moved to the office at closing time, for the concerned party to pick up first thing the next morning. Otherwise, someone who notices their keys are missing (which would likely take place before they attempt to drive home, sans keys) would return to the scene of the crime and locate them at that time. I'm all for acts of kindness, but this, I'm afraid, would have to be categorized under acts of stupidity. There, I'm done. Meanwhile, reason #642 why I love my job: As I'm writing, I'm watching a tape of Reggie Miller's 25-point fourth quarter against the Knicks in 1994. It's one of numerous classic NBA games I have on tape at my desk, and on dark days, I'm occasionally able to enjoy something like this. It's too bad the NBA is nowhere near what it was back then. I won't bother commenting on the Spurs-Suns debacle, but I am at least a little bit encouraged by the lottery (though it didn't benefit my Lakers at all). As much as I hated them when they were good, the NBA was better when Portland (1990-92, then again late 90's and early 00's) and Seattle (1994-97) were good. The Lakers often did battle with these guys (big upset to get to the Finals in '91, thank you B-Shaw in '00) and the league was better for it. Hopefully Oden and Durant can eventually bring them back to that level, or somewhere near it. It's pretty great that the Trail Blazers (nee Jail Blazers) have transformed the character of their team in the last few years (Simmons said something about how it says something about your team when a convicted sex offender--Ruben Patterson--isn't even the third-worst guy on the roster), and it looks like Nate McMillan (poorly-treated in Seattle, by the way) has a real solid core (Oden, Aldridge, Roy, Jack) to build around for the next few years. Maybe trade Zach Randolph for a small forward? I'm obviously not rooting for them (or anyone else in the Western Conference), but it won't be bad to see them back. As far as the Sonics are concerned, everybody watched the Warriors in this year's playoffs, right? Why wouldn't Seattle try to bring Rashard Lewis (free agent) back and run him out there with Ray Allen and Durant? Throw a decent big man in there, Luke Ridnour (or an upgrade) to get them the ball, and get out of the way. Good times... UPDATE: Great video of www.matrixar.com="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=thTIYCXcx90">Blazers fans celebrating like it's 1977 as they hear the lottery announcement... I've been doing a lot of reading lately, not so much of the book variety (though "Breaks of the Game" by David Halberstam--featuring those Portland Trail Blazers, incidentally--is a very good read, and I should be finishing it this weekend), but more of the internet variety. My Google reader is filled to the brim every day, and I can barely get through everything that comes up before it refills the next morning. If you've never used Google reader (or a similar RSS feeder), it's quite worthwhile. Besides getting all kinds of hilarious stories from numerous sports blogs and news sites, I'm exposed to more bad grammar and misuse of words than a 6th-grade English teacher (or a local youth baseball story editor). Here's a sampling, from just the last two days, starting off with a favorite of you and your loved ones: New Real Salt Lake Coach Jason Kreis, on Freddy Adu: "...the ball is in his court, literally and figuratively" - you're halfway there, Coach. The ball would be literal, but the court would not be. Unless he's also playing tennis or basketball... Unnamed blogger on something Scott Skiles did: "...is going to illicit such a response..." - that would be elicit, sorry... Several violations on this one lately, regarding the US Soccer roster for the upcoming Gold Cup: "...he would ordinarily be a shoe-in for the roster..." - it's shoo-in, but close Another soccer story: "...both were booked for descent..." - when you talk back to the referee (Sir, Sir), it's called dissent; when you start up high and you come down, that's descent. These are all off the top of my head, so I know there have been more, which means maybe I'll start keeping track. I'm like that. I care way too much about spelling and grammar and all of that, but somebody's got to, right? This is going to sound pretentious, because all writing does not have to be "proper," as it were, but I think the explosion of blogs has brought about another level of the "dumbing down" of America. More sources for news (and sports, in my case) are coming from less "properly-trained" sources (I mean less in the sense that the sources haven't received as much training, not in the sense that there are fewer sources; I would have used the word fewer in that case), and the AP Style Guide (and the dictionary...) goes out the window. I make no claims about its necessity, and I know it sounds lame to say this (and pretentious, I already said that), but I grow disheartened with improperly-presented opinions, great as they may be. Speaking of improperly-presented opinions, I have never experienced a worse speech than the one given at my bro's law school graduation on Saturday night. I won't slander the man by mentioning his name, but he did everyone there a disservice by either failing to prepare or just being that bad. Fortunately, my brother already speaks much better than this cat (see Suss's wedding reception and best man toast #2), so I'm not too concerned. I'm just bummed I'll never have those 15 minutes of my life back. One quick meeting today and then probably home early to prepare for a busy weekend: long work day tomorrow, baseball Saturday, 10 p.m. flight to Indianapolis for the Indy 500 (all day Sunday), back Monday afternoon and then prep for the week ahead before bible study that night. I'm already tired, thanks to a basketball game Tuesday night (Dimes comes in with 2:00 left, our team down 6; we force OT and win)--didn't get home until 11--and the Dodger game last night (much obliged, Shupe), dugout club-style, which landed me home at 11:30 (a conveniently-timed accident on the 110 South right after the game meant it took me an hour to get to the South Bay). Highlights of last night's game (since I was on the wrong side of the stadium, and we missed the game's one big hit--a three-run double by Russell Martin) included a Martin home run that was changed to a foul ball, followed by a pitch from Carlos Villanueva that sailed over Martin's head, followed by a walk, followed by some jawing between Martin and first baseman Prince Fielder, followed by some jawing between Mariano Duncan and the Brewers dugout, which became Duncan and Fielder, and then the dugouts (and the bullpens--God bless the bullpens for running out) cleared, but nothing too crazy happened. Oh yeah, and the sweet and sour turkey was outstanding. Peace.

Anyways, the title of my post is Spanish and it means "second half" (I know certain terms from watching enough futbol on the television (which means "television"), and I'm merely resuming the history of me and soccer, as started www.matrixar.com="http://scottydimes.blogspot.com/2007/05/in-beginning.html">here the other day. I left off with LC's victorious CIF final against Sierra Vista in '95, and made a brief mention of the UCLA effect. The story continues there... My freshman year at UCLA wasn't quite as soccer-centric as the previous (basketball was still king, by a long shot), but we had a great team on campus, and I made it to a few games. Chris Snitko, Robbie LaBelle, Greg Vanney, Ante Razov and Eddie Lewis were the seniors that year (I think, since I didn't see them again after that), but I didn't really know enough to know how good these guys were. Eddie has gone on to a successful career in England, and Ante, having since returned from Spain, is one of MLS's all-time leading scorers. Vanney's had a great MLS career (with some dabbling internationally) and Snitko made it in MLS for a few years, but I don't recall LaBelle having much to do professionally. Meanwhile, I was trolling cable for college and international soccer games, alternately catching my boy Josh (teaming with fellow frosh Jay Heaps) earning national player of the week honors for a sick two-goal, one assist performance against Clemson, and various Champions League fixtures on ESPN, continuing to expand my knowledge of international teams and players. To be honest, there are very few specific soccer-related memories of the early part of this year, since I was a) consumed by basketball, a carryover from my senior year, and 2) I was home pretty much every weekend, still with a foot very much in LC. Once the college basketball season ended (a little early for my beloved Bruins--thanks, Gabe Lewullis), the debut of Major League Soccer was right around the corner, and I instantly became of fan of your Los Angeles Galaxy. Cobi (a UCLA alum), Cien, Jorge Campos, Robin Fraser, Dan Calichman, El Tanque Eduardo Hurtado (the first--and biggest--in a long line of Latin strikers), Vanney, Andrew Shue (!), Chris Armas--I could probably keep going, but you definitely don't care. Around the same time (I honestly don't remember the exact release date), Dan Ryazansky came out with Major League Soccer Manager, which meant I got to combine my geeky love of soccer management games with my newfound curiosity about MLS. Again, the major benefit here was getting know all the players in the league (and their supposed value). Having the Galaxy play games at the Rose Bowl meant I could (and did) go quite a bit, and the attachment to that squad would only grow. I know that Shearer was torching his way through the Prem once again (though Kenny Dalglish's Blackburn side were unable to duplicate their success) and I got a little taste of Italy (courtesy of Juventus) and Holland (Ajax) as I watched the Champions League play out. So many great Dutch players on that Ajax squad, and all of them went elsewhere over the next few years, I think--van der Sar, Blind (I always thought it rhymed with find when I read the name on 1-0, but it actually rhymes with flint), the de Boers (great goal celebrations, those guys), Bogarde, Davids, Kluivert (he's like a Darryl Strawberry to me, never what he should have been) and (not Dutch) Jari Litmanen, who I loved to watch. Juve had Del Piero, of course (always my first purchase on 1-0), and a bunch of other studs, Italian and otherwise: Vialli and Ravanelli were a great strike duo (Ravanelli was the blond one, I think), Peruzzi in goal, Conte and Di Livio running the flanks, Ferrara and Montero at the back, Deschamps the midfield general (at least until Zidane arrived), and then guys like Jugovic and Paulo Sousa. Besides my devotion to Shearer (and sort of Blackburn, though they crapped out in the group stage of this particular competition), I was at a point here, so early in my exposure to international football, that I was just rooting for great games and usually hoping English teams won (I definitely dug Cantona, who was a 1-0 star as well). As the summer came, I read about Euro '96 (none of the games were on here)--Gazza, who was much bigger a figure than I ever knew (I read his autobiography last spring upon my return from England, and WOW, what a character), Shearer's stellar run (and Sheringham, who was tall and skinny like me, so I kind of liked him too) and the unfortunate Gareth Southgate miss that sent England home. 1-0 was still an obsession, and MLSM became a similar addiction (setting the stage for soccer management games to consume my life for months on end), and the Galaxy lost in the first MLS Cup (darn you, Tony Sanneh and Eddie Pope--we had it). After Euro '96, by the way, came a big moment in my club devotion history, because Newcastle United shelled out the big bucks to bring local boy Alan Shearer home to the northeast, immediately making the Magpies my favorite squad in the world (little did I know how much heartbreak awaited). I immediately became familiar with Les Ferdinand ("Wor Les" read the cover of my first FourFourTwo magazine), Kevin Keegan (knowing nothing of his playing career), former Rover David Batty, Rob Lee, Warren Barton, Pavel Srnicek, Lee Clark, John Beresford, Keith Gillespie, Shaka Hislop, Tino Asprilla, David Ginola and Peter Beardsley (among many others, obviously). Fortunately, I think, I wasn't able to watch very many matches, with the exception of a few Champions League encounters (one Asprilla hat trick against Barca in '97 or '98 rings a bell). Sophomore year meant the addition of fellow Spartan Nick Paneno (part of a tremendous recruiting class--Sasha Victorine, St. Francis alum Pete Vagenas and Michigan native Shea Travis among them) to the Bruin soccer team, and my interest in the squad jumped exponentially. I was also living in a dorm with that whole group of freshmen, and got to know several of them very well. Kevin Hartman was the starting 'keeper that year, Tahj Jakins was the defensive stalwart (he might have even been the #1 pick in the ensuing MLS draft) and Nick Theslof was another senior I remember, a forward who scored a few goals. Don't even remember what the team did that year (some sort of disappointing tournament loss, no doubt), but I do remember going to an off-season scrimmage against the Galaxy in which my newfound crossword puzzle buddy Jimmy Conrad, a skinny walk-on who would probably have to start the following year after Jakins' departure, had to mark the enormous Hurtado. Dude held his own, which more than impressed me (not that I was much of an evaluator of talent), and I'm not saying I foresaw his international career, but there was something cool going on with that guy that day. Thinking UCLA might be joining me there, I had purchased tickets to NCAA soccer's Final Four in Richmond, and had a fun couple of days with your father, experiencing D.C. and Monticello and all of that before taking in a St. John's-Florida International final (Tyrone Marshall and Ignace Moleka were the losing strike tandem, don't remember much about St. John's, but they did win). The summer of '97 included several more Galaxy games (I successfully campaigned the church youth group to get an outing there), and we'd always sit in the south end zone, with the drummers and the face painters and the real fans. Lothar's squad slipped to second that year (I know Hartman was drafted, but I don't recall too many of the comings and goings in '97), but the most important thing to me at this point was the UCLA squad. Adding another stellar recruiting class (they do this every year, I've finally figured out) that included McKinley Tennyson, Jr. (a huge forward from Indiana who spurned his in-state Hoosiers--I hate no collegiate athletic program as much as I hate Indiana soccer, by the way), Carlos Bocanegra (outscored Andrei Shevchenko in the Prem this season), Nick Rimando (an incredibly athletic 'keeper who's had an up-and-down MLS career) and Ryan Lee (athlete supreme--brother Rodney was a receiver on the UCLA football team), they had an amazing season, and I got to witness most of it. My friend Lori was still dating Mr. Paneno at the time (and she had a car), so any road games I wanted to attend were nice and easy, and the home games were a one-minute walk, so no problems there either. They played 24 games that season (went 22-2, not bad) and I probably attended 20 of them. I missed out on a trip to St. Louis (lost to UAB, beat SLU out there) and a NoCal trip (beat USF, destroyed Sac State), but was otherwise omnipresent. Specific games I recall include the season's other loss, at Cal State Fullerton (they seemed to own us, for some reason--come to think of it, I think they actually beat us in the tournament the previous year) that inspired a lot of muttering that Matt Reis shouldn't be the starting keeper any longer (since Rimando was so talented and breathing down his neck), a victorious performance in the UCLA Classic (easy 3-1 drubbing of UMass and then a highly-entertaining 4-2 defeat of Duke, which included my boys Josh and Gaston as well as Heaps, Ali Curtis, Troy Garner, Robbie Russell and Evan Whitfield), a 6-1 thrashing of UCSB in which Martin Bruno scored four goals, and then the post-season. Wow. A great 1-0 win over Stanford in the MPSF (Mountain Pacific Sports Federation--weird, I know) championship, then a 3-0 trouncing of Joe Cannon and Santa Clara (friends Kevin and Lars heckled poor Joe like nobody I've ever seen, and the guy ran over and shook all of our hands after the game--class act, always), a nail-biting 1-0 win over U-Dub, and then a rain-soaked 2-1 victory over Clemson (featuring the nation's leading scorer, Wojtek Krakowiak)--game-winner scored by the legendary Martin Bruno. So it was off to the championship weekend again in Richmond (this time I won tickets from Soccer America or something) and I got to spend some time in Virginia with my friend Brandon (and two of his work crew friends), then root on those gutty little Bruins in an epic final four. Amazing weekend. We upset No. 1 (and undefeated) Indiana in double-OT and then Reis stood on his head (a hockey term, I believe, but it applies) and we beat Virginia (Ben Olsen, Chris Albright, Brian West & Co.) 2-0 (both scored by Seth George, I believe. Fun times all around. Spent much of the spring playing FIFA '98 at the "soccer house" (beat going to class, that's for sure), learning about Thierry Henry's ridiculous skills, and talking soccer with my roommate Matt, who had a bit of English blood in him, and journeyed over there to buy me a Shearer #9 Newcastle jersey (one which I still treasure)--that's not the reason he traveled, mind you, it was something about a grandmother, I believe--which was quite nice. Also by this time, MLSM had been upgraded to WoSoMan (short for "World Soccer Manager"), which allowed the heretofore confined-to-MLS manager to attempt world glory at Newcastle or Man United (I opted for the former, obviously, but the Red Devils were certainly growing on me as well, especially since they were on TV far more often). Somewhere along the line I've left out what ranks as likely my most significant soccer-playing-and-watching friend, Eric Irvine. I got to know Eric on a ski trip when he was in seventh grade (and was about half as tall as me), and started watching his club (and school) soccer games sometime soon thereafter. We also played a little bit of FIFA and watched champions league matches (I'd even tape random games and give them to him, like a 5-0 win by Rangers in which some guy named Negri scored all five goals), so it was nice to have somebody else with whom to share my excitement for the game (the vast majority of my friends still don't get it). More to come on all topics, but my goodness, this is getting unwieldy. I suppose a third tiempo will have to come sometime soon...

So it got me thinking about combinations of places and people that really serve to make me happy, from the recent or not-too-recent past. In the interests of keeping this blog as PG-13 as possible, these will be pretty dude-centric (I can assure you that this has nothing to do with my, um, preference; I can certainly recall combinations of female persons and place that were rather, um, happy, but that's not what this is about). So without Freddy Adu, an seven-deep list of happiness-inducing places and people (in no particular order, but you can consider Moe's with Joel, Hughes, Schnider and Zeus number eight): - Playing NCAA Football at my mom's house with both brothers (with Dave and Tim as alternates for the fourth spot). A tradition at Christmas time (and anytime the three of us are together), we create ourselves (you know, so we're "in the game") and dominate opposing offenses on the way to multiple national championships (and maybe even a Heisman Trophy or two). - At a Sister Hazel concert with Charlie and Joel (Kim). The last show I went to with Charlie necessitated a phone call to include Joel, but the times we've been together have been overjoyous. The greater number of company the better, and I think we usually roll at least 15 deep, dominating the front center and having way too much fun singing along to everything. - Speaking of concerts, at a Collective Soul show with Tim, Mike B, Michael, Kevin and Phil (this actually happened, in Vegas, so it's an easy list to compose). We got there early enough to hear the warm-up, sat through a decent opening band called Pound (the cover of "Pink Houses" was their highlight) enjoyed the heck out of the show. The road trip element added to the enjoyment factor, I think, driving the B's suburban there and back same day. - Another specific event inspired this one: watching UCLA basketball with the Riddell family men. The last time I saw my grandfather (he died last year) was during the '06 Final Four, when my dad (his son), my brothers and I went over to his house and watched UCLA dominate LSU en route to the title game (we won't mention what happened there). The possible range of last memories to have with a loved one before there passing is so broad, and we're incredibly fortunate to have something to wonderful on which to look back. - Shooting craps with the amazing bunch of guys who attended little bro's "bachelor party" in Spokane. After pizza and stix from the Pipeline, we headed to Northern Quest Casino and (three of us) made a bunch of money on the craps table, thanks to two red-hot rollers in particular, one of whom went by the name Matthew Shupper. So necessary attendees in this happy scenario would be both bros, Langford, Dave, Tim (who wasn't with us, but went back with a group after his late-night arrival), and Shupe, to roll and make us all the money. - This one's a little older and has a few permutations, but it includes a) playing NBA Jam, b) eating at In-N-Out (back when I actually did that), and c) playing NBA 2K, and it involves B, Side and Ev. I've thoroughly enjoyed all of the above with all of the above, even though none of the above have occurred in approximately five years. I even wrote a song one time (I think Ev still has the lyrics) that included something about a particular trip to I-n-I in a rented Mustang. But now, one is married (and lives in Orange County), one is engaged (and lives in Santa Barbara), one lives in China, and one doesn't really eat burgers anymore. Oh well, it was all nice while it lasted. - Last but not least, playing music with Elliott, Charlie and Joel, and (the only female to make this list) Vanessa singing. The thing I miss the absolute most about not working at the church is the music (and more importantly, the musicians). I have so many fond memories of practice, of recording, leading musical worship for the youth, for the whole congregation, all kinds of stuff. Now here's the thing: as great as all of these place/people combos are, several of them can't really be recaptured, and even the ones that can be done again won't necessarily be the same, right? So it's not about wishing for what once was (because I'm really good at that)--it's about being thankful for the great things I've been able to do and the great people I've been able to know, and then building newer and better things, so there are more things to add to this list in the future. Easy to say, easier to write, tough to do.

Since I never played anything but basketball growing up (with the exception of three-par golf and the occasional game of billiards at B's house), soccer took a backseat to pretty much every other sport, kickball and handball included. Evidently, your father attended a match at the Coliseum during the '84 Olympics, but I was completely unaware. The first time I ever even noticed the sport was my junior year of high school, when two important things happened, both of which (I think) were inspired by the middle brother. He somehow obtained a copy of a computer game entitled "1-0" (or "One-Nil"), which changed my computing life forever. It was a text-based management game allowing the user to manage any club in English football, from the Premiership down to a collection of non-league teams, and encouraging eternal addiction. I don't know that I caught the bug right away, but it didn't take too long before I was guiding Blackburn Rovers to the top of the Prem (and eventually into the Super League) year after year. Granted, they were by default the top team in the league, so winning shouldn't have been all that hard, but to keep a team atop the table for several years running did take a little bit of foresight (to sell all the old players and buy young ones--Ryan Giggs, Alessandro Del Piero, etc.) and skill (or at least I'd like to think so). One-Nil had a profound impact on all of La Canada, I'd like to think, culminating in one glorious night at LCPC where more than ten of us sat, spread throughout the offices (and illegally using the computers of various church employees), managing our respective squads to championships. I'm not sure, but I think Craig Baldi may have even been involved somehow. This was the night that we also pulled the piano out of hiding to perform a little bit of a late-night concert, forgot to return it to its safer (and dryer) home, and consequently removed the privilege of spending the night at LCPC (theoretically to watch the audio equipment through the life of the Pops concert, and allowing youth to raise money for camps and whatnot) from future generations. Needless to say, small price to pay for world (soccer) domination. The main benefit of playing this game non-stop (besides an addiction that survives to this day) was gaining a thorough knowledge of teams and players, something I had easily developed for MLB, NBA and NFL teams, but had no means or motivation to do in soccer until that point. I think I can still name the entire starting lineup for Blackburn--actually, let's see: G Tim Flowers, CB Colin Hendry, CB LB Graeme LeSaux, RB Henning Berg, DM Mike Atkins, CM Tim Sherwood (or DM David Batty), LW Joshua Wilcox, RW Stuart Ripley (those two wingers might actually be switched), CF Mike Newell, and last but certainly not least, Striker Alan Shearer. Ah, Alan Shearer. He's deserving of a post by himself, those he wasn't even accurately named until a few months into his entry into my life. Because the game simply abbreviated first names, we were left to wonder what the A in A.Shearer stood for, and for some reason settled on "Andrew," which lasted until the next of Michael's contributions, World Soccer magazine (I have no idea why he got this) told us otherwise. In addition to learning about English clubs (Man United had Beckham, Neville, Schmeichel, Cantona, Ince and many others; Kasey Keller was in Leicester, Roy Wegerle and Cobi Jones at Coventry, etc.), the Super League allowed us to meet other great clubs from around the world, most notably Barcelona (Romario, et al) and AC Milan (Maldini and Weah). I ended up buying a George Weah poster that summer (and I still have it), so I was sufficiently motivated. The next release from heavenly Wizard Games was a national team manager centered around the '94 World Cup, and I was obviously quick on board for this one as well, though it didn't captivate quite as much, and with the exception of an LCHS version of the German national team dominating the competition for years (Josh Henderson = Jurgen Klinsmann, Chris Sawicki = Lothar Matthaus) I remained wed to One-Nil. Even future versions of 1-0 didn't quite make the same splash, updated rosters and everything. For some reason, they just never beat the original (much like NHL '94, I must say, though recent encounters with Dave, Tim, Shupe, Suss and the '06 version have caused me to rethink that one just a bit). Now, speaking of LCHS, this would have to be stage three in the development, so I'll jump in with stage two real quickly before getting back there. Having the World Cup in the U.S. in '94 came about a year too early for me, because I was just barely getting to know what was going on. I did watch the U.S. games (I knew enough to appreciate Wynalda's free kick goal against the Swiss at the Meadowlands), and watched in awe with the rest of America as we made it to the quarterfinals against Romario, Bebeto and the heavily-favored Brazilians on the 4th of July. A bunch of friends spent the day down at the beach (somebody's beach house? I honestly don't remember), and somebody else (Charlie Petit, I believe) had the foresight to bring a portable TV, so I (and my pale skin) spent a couple hours underneath the lifeguard tower (reducing the glare--I used to be smart) watching our boys fight valiantly in a 1-0 (appropriate) defeat. I have a picture in some album of me, Charlie, Ray Lee and Tony Rosa crowded around that little TV. Good times. So after World Cup came and went (and I realized, much too late, that I should have gone to a game or two), we started school and I met a dude by the name of Josh Henderson (you might remember him from three paragraphs back), who had moved out to LC (along with four or five other, um, "out-of-towners") to play club soccer for the Flyers and high school soccer for La Canada. LC's soccer program was already one of the best in the area, and with this infusion of talent, it became the best in the entire country--just ask USA Today, which ranked Lou Bilo's Spartans No. 1 in the country in both 1994-95 and '95-'96 (I couldn't find the old USA Today polls, but I found a couple of things: ...a www.matrixar.com="http://studentsportssoccer.rivals.com/content.asp?CID=315168">StudentSports article listing the historical #1 teams in the country (we were winter, and/or spring it seems)... ...the old champions www.matrixar.com="http://www.dallascup.com/history/index_E.html">list from the Dallas Cup, the best club soccer tournament in the country, which included the Flyers victories in U17 '95 and U16 '94... ...and the www.matrixar.com="http://www.soccertimes.com/facts/usa/youth_soccer.htm#under-17">SoccerTimes article that listed them as the Boys' U-17 national champions in 1995 (holders of the Don Greer cup). Something like 10 guys from that team played Division I soccer (I'm sure I'll forget somebody, but: Cardis, Sawicki, Dyslin, Paneno, Haupert, Sweeney, Cropley, Henderson, Cuellar, , which is absurd, and the goals for and against numbers from both of those seasons were criminal (like 136-7 and 141-5 or something like that). Without going into too much detail (these teams, like Alan Shearer before them, are worthy of an entire post), having the chance to watch these guys play (and I didn't always get that chance during league, because we'd play at the same place, usually later) made me appreciate "the beautiful game" that much more. Seeing guys I knew just destroy other guys our age, mixing in all kinds of pretty tricks (Gaston was the master of the pointless back heel, an early forerunner to the pre-2006 Cristiano Ronaldo) gave me a higher level of understanding of the sport and how it could be played at its highest level. Josh was worth the price of admission himself, scoring goals at a record rate and rarely staying in for the second half (once he got his hat trick, Louie would sub him out). He's the best I've ever seen among people my own age playing the sport at which they excelled, if that makes sense. Without fail, whenever I think about these guys, I want to remember to ask Lou for a copy of the season highlight tape, something I've never done for some reason. It could be the greatest soccer highlight video ever assembled. So needless to say, these guys went on to capture the CIF title our senior year (and again the year after), and I was able to watch every playoff game (since we, uh, lost to Franny in the basketball version), including a ridiculous 5-goal, 2-assist effort from Josh in one early-round match. The semi-finals happened to be against league rival San Marino (including defender Nate Decker, who I ended up working with at Abercrombie, and who was a real solid dude, but I'm sure that I was disparaging him on this day), and the finals against future Mexican national teamer (and APU standout) Carlos Ochoa, and Carlito knocked one past Cardis for the losers' lone goal. I could obviously write about these guys all day, but I won't. There are numerous other stops along the way, but once I left for college, I was sold. UCLA allowed for a similar appreciation of the top level of the sport (traveling to Virginia in '97 to watch my boys upset Indiana--thanks Key--and Virginia--Matty Reis standing on his head--to win the title was awesome), and the fact that several of the guys on the team became good friends didn't hurt either. Work beckons, another day without soccer on our show...

It went zoom in cross the left field wall Yeah boy, yes, yes Jackie hit that ball" --Did You See Jackie Robinson Hit That Ball, Woodrow Johnson Every once in awhile, while on assignment for something from work, I'm able to step back and appreciate the magnitude of what I have the fortune of witnessing in person. It's rare that these moments have any sort of historical significance (Hooters girls? Playboy mansion?), so it's awesome when those occasions do arise. One such occurence took place in Chicago in January (www.matrixar.com="http://scottydimes.blogspot.com/2007/01/chicago-style.html">photo here), though with nowhere near the significance of this past Sunday. As a Padre fan, I was obviously excited to be producing a shoot at Sunday's Dodgers-Padres game (especially on the heels of Jake Peavy's dominant performance Saturday night), spending a couple of hours on the field before the game, talking to players and coaches and veterans about the impact of Jackie Robinson, who was honored across Major League baseball all day. This was the featured game, nationally-broadcast, and the last game of the day, so all of baseball's eyes were upon it. Some of the highlights included meeting Peter Gammons (the BEST baseball writer ever, no question), to whom I could listen for hours on end; chatting with ESPN soccer sideline reporter Allen Hopkins for awhile (and realizing how much I need to find a way to mix some soccer into my work); interacting with Don Newcombe (another guy I could listen to forever--stories about having dinner with Martin Luther King, Jr. and Martin telling him how important he and Jackie's work was before he could even try to do what he did), Dave Winfield (Padre hat in the hall of fame, by the way, not Yankee), Mike Cameron (he and Dibble evidently rode the "Jordan bus" together in Birmingham back in the day, and Nomar (a fellow South Bay-er); standing behind home plate for the entire ceremony, and literally being moved to tears at the end of the national anthem, when fireworks went off and Don Newcombe saluted directly in front of me--all the weight of the day, the trials guys like Jackie and Newcombe went through, the work they did to make baseball such an international, interracial game, and the impact they had on America and the world, not just MLB, all hit me at once, and I was overcome. There was a great episode of SportsNight in which Casey McCall telephoned his son, sleeping at the time, and woke him up to watch a runner about to break a world record (there was a back story about his struggles to get to that point), and it spoke of the rare moments when sports can be so much bigger than just a ball and a bat (or just a ball), and this was definitely one of those times. I was fortunate just to be in attendance, a witness to a great tribute to a great man. And oh by the way, I was also fortunate to head up to the Shuppers' suite after the pre-game festivities, enjoying a few Dodger Dogs (and assorted other edibles) in the company of Bill, Nick, Joel & Kristi, and Bob McGlashan. Good times. Final non-Jackie-related note: I've found myself becoming more and more obsessed with the Premiership as the season has gone on, not just Newcastle and Manchester United. I found it sad (but kind of cool) that I could accurately give the name of every Premier League manager when looking at the list of club names. Just finished watching Manchester City-Arsenal live on FSC (and I'm TiVo-ing Man U-Sheffield U at home right now), watched two or three matches over the weekend, and the fixtures are coming fast and furious now, with games almost every day of the week (all the matches that were rescheduled for the FA Cup or Champions League schedule are being forced into midweek action now). Here's what we could be headed for as the season winds down: Chelsea and Man U both won their FA Cup semifinals over the weekend, so they'll face off in the FA Cup Final (at the new Wembley Stadium) on May 19. They're also both in the Champions League semis, so if they win (the Red Devils over AC Milan and the Blues over Liverpool), they'll match up in that final as well. And finally, only three points currently separate the two squads atop the Prem, which makes their May 9 date a HUGE one. I can only wish more people I know were as into this stuff as I am.

It's on the occasion of watching my Padres win another one last night (4-0 over the TERRIBLE Giants) that I've decided to generate a list of some of the greatest things in the world, in their respective categories. World's Greatest... - Bullpen: The Padres. The reason for this post. Of course I'm probably jinxing them now, but Linebrink tossed a scoreless seventh and Brocail tossed a scoreless ninth (up four, no need for Trevor Time), running the pen's streak to 28 1/3 scoreless innings to start the season (club record is 32, should be eclipsed by the time I make it out to Dodger Stadium for Sunday's series finale)... - Footballer: Cristiano Ronaldo. Two goals in Man U's www.matrixar.com="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eICez7kvLX4">7-1 thrashing of AS Roma on Wednesday, and countless pressure-inducing runs, back-heels, stepovers and other acts of brilliance. He's 22, the source of a $107 million rumor (Real Madrid wants him badly), and has been the most dominant player on the best club in Europe this season. If United manage to capture the European Cup (they're in the semis against AC Milan), the FA Cup (they're in the semis against Watford) and the Premiership (they've got a three-point lead over Chelsea with six matches left), this will go down as one of the great team and individual performances in European football history... - Pitcher: Could it really be Felix Hernandez? Watched most of his outing last night and www.matrixar.com="http://mlb.mlb.com/news/gameday_recap.jsp?ymd=20070411&content_id=1893414&vkey=recap&fext=.jsp&c_id=sea">he was ridiculous. I had heard last year that he had the stuff to be the best in the game, but wasn't all there mentally (and physically--he evidently dropped a bunch of weight in the off-season). He's been lights-out to start the season, so we'll see if it keeps going. According to Buster Olney, "seven of the 58 batters he's faced this year have hit the ball to the outfield -- and only one has mustered an extra-base hit, for an .075 batting average." Wow... - Idiot: Don Imus. Enough has been said about him that I don't need to pile on, but after reading a list of some of the www.matrixar.com="http://www.slate.com/id/2163872">crap this guy has said in the past, it's about time that something went down.

This is why Larry Walker is not a hall of famer (he had a few great years, but not enough of an entire career) and Tony Gwynn is (undeniable greatness over a 20-year career). So I got home from work last night and turned on the television (as I am wont to do on occasion), intending to play the still-TiVo'd Studio 60 episode from Monday night, but I was instead greeted with "That Thing You Do" on HBO. Highly underrated film, but its greatest moment is the scene in which the band members first hear their song on the radio. I arranged my lunch-making and bag-packing schedule around the scene, which (if you'll recall) comes just after the Oneders sign their first deal with Phil, and it did not disappoint. The set-up is great: the lovely Faye (Liv Tyler) is mailing letters and listening to her radio; T.B. Player (seriously, the bass player's name in the movie is 'T.B. Player', look it up) is doing likewise as he exits the Marine recruitment office; Guy is working in his dad's store, showing a few female customers the different colors of stoves they have available. All of a sudden, "Erie's own oh-nee-ders" are playing, and Faye goes crazy, running down the street, grabbing T.B. and careening into the appliance store, where Guy turns on all the radios in the place and they proceed to dance like maniacs. Jimmy and Lenny eventually join them, and the sheer joy is so fun to watch. There are several moments like this in the movie (running through the throngs of screaming girls on their way to the limo) where the excitement of "making it" as a band are so deftly displayed, but this is the defining moment, and one of my favorite movie scenes of all time. Others that came to mind as I started to consider great scenes... - The hockey scene in Swingers. Video gaming in movies has never been done better, though it's been imitated often since then. - The "You know how I know you're gay?" scene in 40-Year Old Virgin. They're also playing video games in this one, but it's hardly the focal point. The extended version on the DVD, the two dudes just riffing on this topic forever, is hilarious. - The climactic scene in Scent of a Woman, in which Pacino earns his Oscar, putting Headmaster Trask in his place and getting Charlie out of any punishment for his so-called crimes--Charlie may have been many things, "but not a snitch!" - The scene at work where I have way too much to do to finish writing something fun like this. Oh well.

A big problem with the youth group which formerly employed me (and with many youth groups, I would assume) was the way the core group of attendees would respond to visitors, mostly those of the not-so-"churchy" lifestyles. Say there's somebody you go to school with who's known to be a drinker and a drug user, and you're the typical good Christian boy, how would you, the latter, view the former's presence with you in church on Sunday morning? Ideally, he'd be welcomed with open arms (as Jesus often spoke of how he came to heal the sick, not the well), but in reality, it was often far from that. The looks and whispers say "what is he doing here?" instead of "thank God he's here," and that sucks. So the thought I had at the gym was that the fit often view the unfit in the same light, right? Thankfully the Fox gym is made up of a vastly different clientele than, say, Gold's Gym (my buddy Mike, who's a member at Gold's, speaks fondly of his rise up the relative manliness charts in his move to the Fox location), but I think the thought process is universal. For whatever reason, there's an "I'm better than you" feeling that permeates both of these institutions (churches and gyms, not Gold's and Fox), and I'm certainly not saying I'm exempt, which also sucks. I think there's a sermon in there somewhere... Speaking of churches, I had a chance to check out Mosaic in Downtown L.A. Sunday night, which reminded me very much of Hillsong in London, but with better teaching. Erwin McManus (I believe I went to a seminar of his at Youth Specialties one year) is one of two people that I now realize I'm able to listen to for more than 20 minutes. It's a sad reality that I fall asleep in almost every church service I attend (especially the Christmas Eve service at LCPC, moreso because it's late), which probably represents ADD of some kind (though it's never been diagnosed), and the odds go way up the longer the sermon goes. When I used to speak on Sunday mornings, I'd try real hard to keep it to 20 minutes or less, because I know the attention span of teenagers is even worse than mine, so when I'm trying to hear a sermon, it's real tough to stay up the longer it goes. That being said, I've had one big exception to the rule (until Sunday night): Britt Merrick, who I got to hear speak two or three times up at Reality in Santa Barbara a few years back. He'd speak for 40-50 minutes and I was into it the whole way, which was shocking at the time. Erwin spoke for close to an hour on Sunday, and again, I was there with him the whole way. It remains to be seen whether this was a one-time thing (was I better-rested than usual? did the fact that I was seated in the second row--as opposed to my normally further-back location--mean I had to be extra careful, subconsciously?) or whether he's got the power to keep my attention for an unlimited amount of time. Girls have that power (only certain ones, obviously), but it'd be nice to get that at church too... Wonderful weekend in the Premiership, highlighted by a HUGE Newcastle United win over Liverpool--Oguchi Onyewu was outstanding in his home debut for the Magpies, Obafemi Martins scored another great goal, and old favorite Nolberto Solano knocked in a penalty for the winner). Manchester United kept its six-point lead over Chelsea, thanks to Ji-Sung Park and Darren Fletcher (though much of the work was done, as usual, by Cristiano Ronaldo and Wayne Rooney), and they remain favorites to bring home the title. Elsewhere (in American-centric circles), Reading (Bobby Convey and Marcus Hahnemann) continued their remarkable rise up the table (they're currently 6th) with a 2-0 win over Aston Villa, Jay DeMerit's Watford beat Jonathan Spector's West Ham, 1-0, and Clint Dempsey/Brian McBride/Carlos Bocanegra couldn't keep Fulham from falling to Bolton, 2-1. I still haven't had time to blog about Miami, and I don't know that I'll ever be able to adequately sum up the 10 days I spent down there, but I suppose I'll have to try at some point. Highs include two Heat games (including the TNT game against the Cavs, where we saw everyone who's anyone--Ladainian, Andy Roddick, Enrique Iglesias & Anna Kournikova, etc.), extended work with the lovely ladies of the Irene Marie modeling agency (four days' worth of model challenge segments, such fun), coordination of our DJ's (DJ Irie, the Heat DJ, for three days, and DJ Khaled--with good friend Rick Ross--the other two) and dancers (most notably, the www.matrixar.com="http://www.nba.com/heat/dance/index.html">Heat dancers), and several fun shoots (an eating contest with Leeann at Hooters, tattoos with Rodney and Dibble at Miami Ink, Salley in the locker room and on the floor at that Heat game). Lows, hmm, how about none? Besides being pretty tired at the end of the week, I can't come up with something bad about the trip, and I'd say that's a small price to pay... My television show selection is quite thankful for TiVo, I must say, since the only three shows I watch with regularity all air on Monday nights--Prison Break, 24 and Studio 60 on the Sunset Strip. Missing two weeks' worth (Miami, remember?) meant I spent much of the day Saturday (after the EPL, of course) catching up on everything. It bears mentioning that this was my first full weekend at home since early December, which is pretty ridiculous. That's pretty much it for now. Oh yeah, except for this...www.matrixar.com id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5031489544233936402" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://www.matrixar.com/_SIckb78QZD8/RdNxFR8n5hI/AAAAAAAAAAY/Tp9KDjYjRzw/s400/DSC00250.JPG" border="0" /> SEO/contentSEO SEO/entrySEOSEOentrySEO SEOidSEOtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-my.post-mySEO/idSEO SEOpublishedSEO2007-01-25T07:40:00.000-08:00SEO/publishedSEO SEOcategory scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='ANDRE MILLER basketball'/SEO SEOtitle type='text'SEOChicago StyleSEO/titleSEO SEOcontent type='html'SEO"I walk through the valley of the Chi where death is Top floor the view alone will leave you breathless" --Jesus Walks, Kanye West Every once in a while, I'm reminded of how blessed I am, and how many ridiculously fun things I get to do because of what I do. This past weekend in Chicago was one of those occasions, as I strolled out onto Soldier Field early in the fourth quarter of the Bears' shellacking of Reggie and the Saints, snow lightly falling and Chicago fans going crazy all around us. Thankfully Joel was on hand to document the occasion photographically... www.matrixar.com id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5023994878847670882" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://www.matrixar.com/_SIckb78QZD8/RbjQuVsY2mI/AAAAAAAAAAM/vlPz-USMVWQ/s400/nfc.jpg" border="0" />Yeah, I was pretty stoked to be there, obviously. I had been to Chicago just once previously (en route to South Bend), and hadn't really gotten to experience the city, as it were. This time, we stayed right on the Chicago River, walked a little ways (through wind and snow, so great) to dinner (Giordano's, Chicago-style deep dish) with Eddie George (he treated, good man) and then cruised down to the game the next morning. Anyways, on this occasion, I thought I'd reflect back on the last 12 months or so, and some of the amazing things I've been able to do (though I'm likely to forget some, I'm sure) and any previous blog references, if they exist. Though the tone might appear somewhat braggadocious (that's a real word, I promise), but it's honestly coming from a place of awe, like am I really this fortunate? Wow... March '06: Spent a week in England (and two days in Norway), including three football matches. Arsenal-Fulham (Thierry Henry is the best player I've ever seen in person), Watford-Reading (Bobby Convey's not bad) and Manchester United-Newcastle United (my Magpies lost, but it was worth it to see Wayne Rooney score twice). www.matrixar.com="http://scottydimes.blogspot.com/2006/03/backed-up-thoughts.html">Briefly discussed here April '06: My first real feature shoot was in Denver for the Clippers-Nuggets playoff game, which didn't go as well as I had hoped (not my fault, I was assured), but I still got to meet a bunch of players and coaches and hang around courtside for an NBA Playoff game, which didn't suck. Also got to sneak up to Boulder for lunch with Pat after the morning shootarounds. www.matrixar.com="http://scottydimes.blogspot.com/2006/04/mile-high-morning.html">Mid-way through the trip here May '06: My second big feature shoot, hanging out with Jalen Rose at Game 7 of the Suns-Clippers series. In hindsight, two things are pretty cool--I was introduced to Jack McCallum, who was (as I know now) working on a book about the Suns' season, one which I just finished; and two, Jalen is now a Sun, and the chemistry between him and those guys was very evident back then (though I think Jalen would get along with pretty much anybody). At the time, it was obviously pretty cool too, chatting with (among others) Billy Crystal, Penny Marshall, Matt Leinart, T-O and Fred Couples (don't think Jalen knew who he was, but that's okay). www.matrixar.com="http://scottydimes.blogspot.com/2006/06/june-gloom.html">A note about it here (also includes a note and photo from the next two...) June '06: We did a show from Hermosa Beach, which meant hanging out with Hooters girls, SI swimsuit model Marisa Miller, US soccer player (and model) Heather Mitts--oh yeah, and our guys and Michael Strahan too. Also went to the Reno Rodeo with Leeann, which was very different for me (I even had a few cowboys lecture me about my choice of attire--long-sleeve button-down shirt and boots were the correct choice). Those people love them some rodeo, let me tell you. Best event by far was the mutton-bustin', where little kids ride sheep like the big boys ride broncos, and the crowd goes crazy for it. We were actually out on the dirt for that one, and one of the sheep (after losing its rider) almost jumped over Leeann's head, kinda crazy. Also was treated to a nice dinner (mexican place, I had fajitas) by Leeann before heading to the airport, which was obviously nice. July '06: Got to sit in the booth for the Yankees-White Sox game at Yankee Stadium (Fox game, I was hired as a runner for the day), the highlight of which was walking through the Yankee dugout and then monument park after it had been closed to the public, and watching A-Rod drop bombs into the bleachers during BP. www.matrixar.com="http://scottydimes.blogspot.com/2006/07/why-i-love-baseball-revisited.html">Mentioned here August '06: Two days in Alabama for a fishing show, which was along the lines of the rodeo in that it's not something I've ever done or ever thought I'd be doing. The highlight was meeting Bo Jackson (Ken Stabler too), and spending a couple hours with Salley and Rose, fishing and trying to keep up with Dibble and Rodney (we lost, four fish to one). Also worked the Evander Holyfield comeback fight in Dallas, which was amazing. Too much to recall, but it's blogged about www.matrixar.com="http://scottydimes.blogspot.com/2006/08/holyfield-v-final-chapter.html">in great detail here September '06: Weekend trip to Arkansas for USC's season-opener. Managed a sideline pass, so I got to hang out down there and take some fun pictures, then hand it off so Michael and John could also experience the excitement. Real tight. In addition, the most meaningful shoot I've ever been a part of, spending a day in New Orleans with Joe Horn (and interviewer Graham Bensinger), walking around the Lower 9th Ward (one of the most devastated areas) and then the Superdome, to which Joe hadn't returned since their last game there, more than a year prior. One of the days that I've felt most proud to be doing what I'm doing, definitely. October '06: Journeyed to Notre Dame with a fellow producer for the UCLA game, which turned out to be as heartbreaking an experience as I've had in sports (in person). We still had an awesome time (how couldn't we), spending a couple hours on campus before the game to take in all the tradition. November '06: Holyfield fight number two, this time in San Antonio, home of perhaps the greatest all-night Mexican restaurant in the world, Mi Tierra (it's actually the only one of which I'm aware, so I have a limited pool from which to draw). Fun times with Evander once again, though he wasn't as convincing this time around. The dunks show also came to fruition (and aired), including an awesome shoot at a playground with T. J. Fontenette (And 1's "The Air Up There"). www.matrixar.com="http://scottydimes.blogspot.com/2006/11/long-train-runnin.html">Talked a little about it here December '06: Two weeks of vacation were pretty nice, including a Kings game with Michael and Jeffrey, and a UCLA basketball game with Dad (and a BCS national championship or two with the XBox version of the Washington Huskies). The holidays should always be this relaxing. January '07: This is where it picks up and gets pretty ridiculous, starting with the Rose Bowl on the 1st, continuing with a week-long jaunt to St. Maarten on a private jet (weeks in the sun are pretty solid no matter how you get there, but still), then a weekend in Arizona for the BCS Championship game (on the field with Florida the whole time, so cool), and then this little Chicago trip. Geez. Fortunately, there's still more to come next week (leaving for Miami on Saturday), since we're doing our show every day from the Surfcomber Hotel on South Beach, and I'll be taking in the Heat-Bucks game on Tuesday night, among other things (Joel and I are in charge of two segments entitled "Model Challenge"--I'm guessing that won't suck). I suppose this post would qualify as a clip show, in that I didn't do much original material, just kind of looked back at previous work, but it's a post nonetheless, and I haven't been producing those with much regularity at all these days, so I'll take it. Hoping to add at least one from Miami next week, but we'll see...

After seeing said film, were I a fast-food eater of any repute (I don't consider my semi-monthly consumption of an El Pollo Loco Ultimate Grilled burrito to represent me as any kind of fast-food eater), there would be no possible way I could continue along that culinary path. I'm not writing any longer on this topic, but allow me to make the Big Mac-Big Mac connection and bridge myself to the real thought du jour--the supersized baseball slugger (in general) and the left-out-of-Cooperstown Cardinals' former Big Mac (in France they call him Le Big Mac). I'm obviously quite pleased at the induction of Fat Tony, and Cal deserves to be there as well (what a great class of two), but the bigger news story on announcement day was that Mark McGwire received just 25% of the vote (far short of the required 75%), and will face a long, uphill battle in his quest to make it in future years. Much has been written on this subject by vastly superior sources, so I won't bore (all three of) you with preaching on either side of the argument, but I will offer my opinion, briefly, and with solid reason. Mark McGwire belongs in the National Baseball Hall of Fame. I walked out of an elevator in my building today and stared right at reason number one for this assertion. A series of promos for Fox Sports (or maybe Fox Sports Net, doesn't matter) depicted fans experiencing great moments and affirmed our (the royal we) connection to them (the fans) through these memorable moments. The tag line was something along the lines of "We understand" or something more clever (slogans have never been my strength, and recalling the slogan in this case is not integral to the success of my argument), and these crazed Cardinals fans were leaping out of their seats (at home, on couches and recliners) to celebrate McGwire slamming home run number 62 back in 1998. Joe Buck's call is written out on the poster as well, and since you can't see what's on the TV, that's your only reference to the event taking place. These guys were good actors, and the joy on their face is quite evident, but there were millions of people--no actors necessary-- in the summer of '98 who celebrated just the same, watching an historic (I'm not sure why people tend to use "an" in front of "historic," but I think it makes me sound distinguished in this case, so I'm going with it) period in baseball. I care not for the Cardinals nor the Cubs, and my Padres made it to the World Series in '98 (darn you, Tino Martinez), but I'll forever remember '98 as the year of McGwire, not of Caminiti, Gwynn, Kevin Brown and Greg Vaughn. He and Sammy essentially saved baseball that year (another point that's been made numerous times), and whether or not Mac's feats were chemically-aided (and who in their right mind didn't think so, even at that time), they brought great joy to all the people (starting to sound biblical, sorry) at a time when the whole sport (and its vast fan base) needed just that. Based on those on-field accomplishments (and they are numerous) and his bigger-than-the-game influence on fans across the country, I don't think speculation should be sufficient to bring him down. In fact, I don't even think factual confirmation of said speculation (should it ever become available) should be sufficient either, because there's no way we'll ever know how many players in the late 90's and early 00's were using "performance-enhancing drugs," hitters or pitchers (and don't even get me started on Clemens). The whole period's numbers are skewed, but the best players from the period should still be in the Hall of Fame. Baseball's history will reflect that drugs (and the surrounding suspicions) dominated this time period, and the players who enter the Hall from said period will (unfortunately, in guys like Gwynn's case) be linked to all that shadiness. Baseball writers should not blackball a generation of players, because everyone (from MLB itself down to owners, managers, players, and even writers) is to blame for the epidemic that this whole steroids thing has become, and for one member of that group (the writers, most of whom turned a deaf ear to any speculation, as long as it was good for the game--and for readership of newspapers and magazines) to decry another (the players) reeks of hypocrisy to me. Okay, so I wasn't as brief as I initially intended, but hypocrisy is one of the most frustrating things in the world, in any field, so I'm obviously quite passionate in my assessment of the situation. I'll lighten up from here on, I promise. Quick recap of that last week-plus, starting on New Year's Day, with an associated thought or two:
And one last thing before I go: greatest www.matrixar.com="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VskbxuehP3I">music video of all time? Quite possibly. Wow.

It's the holidays, which means I've had very little to do, and still haven't made enough time to blog, so here's the December entry, boys and girls... First thing is to share the excitement (?) of getting blasted by the Sports Guy in . Granted, he doesn't know it's me that he's blasting, but he evidently watched my Top 50 Dunks show (officially titled "Best Damn's Top 50 Spectacular Dunks") on the 26th (its first re-air; three or four more showings to come) and while he thoroughly enjoyed it, he had quite a few problems with the "unconscionable" decision-making of the producer (yours truly):
I'm conaidering the contents of an email to him, to explain some of the difficulties of the process (the NBA's stubbornness high among them), and to ask for some feedback on my next show, the greatest shots in basketball history. A few quick thoughts on the shots show, which will hopefully be airing sometime in February: Christian Laettner, number one? Tyus Edney, top 10? Probably not, but I'm biased, so we'll see. MJ's switching hands against the Lakers (lots of people call that one overrated)? Tough one to decide, since it's a combo of the dramatic (Laettner, Gar Heard, Jerry West from half court), the spectacular (MJ, Doc's baseline wraparound against the Lakers, J.R. Rider's behind-the-back flip falling out of bounds), and the inspirational (Bo Kimble's lefty free throw, that J-Mac kid in the high school game last year). Looking forward to the process, for sure... Okay, so the reason I used this particular title and song lyric combination was that I'm beyond excited about Pac-10 basketball this year. No less a regionalist than Billy Packer called it "the best league in the country" during the Ohio State-Florida (basketball) game last Saturday (yes, I know they're also playing in football in a week or so--I'm going to be there, so I'm well aware). I've been to four UCLA games so far this year (only paid for one--Christmas present for Dad), and by far their toughest test was the other night against Wazzu, which was picked to finish last in the conference. Wow, talk about depth, huh? My guess is that ASU (sorry, Herb Sendek) will be the cellar-dweller, so without further ado, here's my extremely biased, one-game-in, top-half-of-the-Pac-10 preview (everybody except the Oregons have played once). 1) UCLA, if only because I'm a homer and they're the number one team in the country, so how can I pick against them, right? Howland has them playing even better defense than last year (if you want to know how, just watch Jordan Farmar try to guard somebody--anybody--during a Laker game), and as long as Josh Shipp is healthy (bad wheel limited his offense Thursday night), they've got two or three guys (Afflalo and sometimes Collison) who can create their own shot. Minus Hollins, they're a little smaller down low (whoever imagined, before last March, that we'd be missing Hollins?), but Mata has been pretty strong, and Luuuuuuuuuuc is a crazy defensive presence (three steals and three blocks Thursday). Side note, something I've shared before: every team needs a Luuuuuuuuuuuc-sounding name--nothing like a whole arena joining in the cheer after a block or a dunk ("No sir, they're not booing. They're saying, 'Boo-urns.'") 2) Arizona, who scored 94 points against Cal and looks like they can top the century mark every time out. What a contrast in styles between the Wildcats and the Bruins, right? (By the way, my 5th-grade basketball league championship game was between the orange-and-blue Wildcats (featuring my two best friends, Jeff Petit and Jeremy Rabe) and the baby blue-and-gold Bruins (featuring me). We lost.) They've got several guys who can fill it up, including Marcus Williams (please leave early, please leave early), Jawann McClellan (they really missed him last year) and Billy Hoyle, er, Chase Budinger, who's just as happy scoring 10 with eight assists as he is dropping 30. Shakur has actually been pretty solid at the point (seniors do get better, I suppose), and Radenovic pretty solid down low. They scare me because so many guys can score, and even though we really defend well, they have a lot of answers. I think we split the two games, but they drop at least one more of the at Oregon, at You-Dub, at SC, at Cal combo than we do. 3) Washington, because Spencer Hawes is the best post-up player I've seen since George Zidek (respect the Czech), and Ivan Drago is not a bad complementary player (I'm now being told his name is actually www.matrixar.com="http://graphics.fansonly.com/photos/schools/wash/galleries/031806_wash_ill_ncaa/wash10-lg.jpg">Jon Brockman. My bad.) I had the pleasure of working a high school basketball tournament in Vegas in August of '05 with Best Damn--we broadcast the two semifinal games and then the championship, and while one of the teams (coached by Kyle Lowry's older brother, Lonnie) was more of an overachieving, no-stars squad, the three others provided several big-time players. We got to see Hawes (I immediately told my UCLA buddies that if we signed him, we'd win multiple national championships--hopefully Kevin Love brings that sort of success along next year), Kevin Durant (evidently the best freshman--and maybe the best player--in the country right now), who did not impress at all--shot way too many threes, and never took it inside against much smaller opponents), Tywon Lawson (carolina's point guard), Brook and Robin Lopez (Collins twins, part II at Stanford), Derrick Jasper (caused us a little bit of trouble in Maui when he came in at point for Kentucky) and Quincy Pondexter, who's UW's leading scorer. Pretty awesome experience, and now getting to see these guys dominate where they are is pretty cool too. All that to say I like Washington, especially Hawes and Pondexter, Dentmon gives them backcourt experience, Opie Appelby can bomb from anywhere (six threes against the Trojans), and then they have a guy named Hans Gasser, who I think was a bad guy in one of the Die Hard movies. Oh yeah, and Lorenzo Romar is my favorite coach in the country not named Howland. 4) Oregon, I guess. They did beat Georgetown, but do we really know how good they are? They'll beat Oregon State today, but we'll see in the long run. They do have some talent, for sure, with Brice Taylor and Malik Hairston the big names, and Aaron Brooks running a solid point (when he's not throwing picks and throwing his teammates and coaches under the bus in Oakland--busy year for this guy, wow). The wildcard is Tajuan Porter, who nobody had heard of until he went 27, 28, 38 (10 of 12 threes?!?) in the Ducks' first three games. He's 5-6, he's from Michigan (did Hairston help bring this guy in?), and he's kinda sweet (though he didn't score against Portland the other night). Leunen is their main inside guy (I swear he's been there seven years), and he's been in double figures so far as well, which seems to give them as many offensive options as anybody in the conference. Senior point guard, numerous scorers, a huge homecourt advantage--they could surprise and move up a few slots here, for sure. 5) either USC or Wazzu, because they both impressed in their respective conference openers. SC is only going to get better, with Pruitt now back (and playing well after two terrible games) and a lot more depth than last year. This Wilkinson kid is great, ball-handler, rebounder and garbage scorer--good teams need guys like that. Nick Young's bad haircut is gone, and he's capable of 20 a night, and Taj Gibson has been a truck down low. Wazzu will win some games because they play great defense, much like UCLA. I don't think we're great offensively, but they made us look terrible, holding us to less than 33% from the floor. Steve Nash play-alike Derrick Low really surprised me, making a ton of difficult shots (though he settled for a bad trey on his team's penultimate possession) and keeping Collison (the best defensive point guard in the country?) on his heels the whole way. Besides Low, they've got a bunch of interchangeable guys (which allows them to switch everything on defense) and a few shooters, and Bennett the younger is a solid coach. The rest of the conference goes like this: 7) Cal, 8) Stanford, 9) Oregon State, 10) Arizona State. A few more observations from the world, sporting and otherwise, this holiday season (and yes, these will also likely come from very biased perspective): - The Kings (Los Angeles, nobody cares about Sacramento) really suck, but thank goodness they decided to play well when the bros and I went on Tuesday night. Hockey really is the best spectator sport there is--we had a fight, a 3-3 tie at the end of regulation (Kings pulled the goalie, tied it up in the last minute) and then a nice shootout win (rookie goaltender Barry Brust, already a crowd favorite, came up big). We're a far cry from the Gretzky-Kurri-Sandstrom-Granato (I could seriously name every player on that roster, thanks to a) watching every game in the '93 season, and b) playing NHL '94 religiously) Stanley Cup finalist squad, and even a far cry from the Allison-Palffy-Deadmarsh playoff squad, but there's certainly some young excitement out there (Brust, Frolov--sometimes--and Kopitar), and it's still fun to go watch (as long as they're not getting blown out 7-0)... - I don't like where this season is headed if Kobe is scoring 58 and we're losing to the Charlotte Bobcats (in triple OT, but a loss nonetheless). Lamar needs to come back, real soon, or we'll be reverting to the bad parts of the '04-'05 season in no time. Best stat from last night's game was Adam Morrison's shooting: 1-of-15 from the floor. Seriously... - First year in forever that I haven't watched a bowl game yet, except for fast-forwarding the TiVo to catch up on the UCLA score while our out-of-town cousins were over (I still haven't mastered the appropriateness of entertaining guests and watching sports--depending on the importance of the event, I'm probably about as bad a host as you'll find, but as soon as FSU blocked the punt and took it back, I was good to go). I'm not sure why that's been the case (I probably would have watched Cal, but they were on while I was at the UCLA game), but Michael and I are going to the Rose Bowl, so that's one I'll have to watch (and the rest of the BCS games, of course--they're all on Fox)... - Did the Diamondbacks actually watch Randy Johnson pitch last year, or were they just watching the '01 World Series DVD and getting nostalgic? And they want to sign him to an extension?!? His ERA was 5.00 and he didn't allow less than five runs in a start after September 1. He's 43 (looks even older, obviously) and I really hope it's Arizona that makes this deal, not my Padres... - My boy Shawne Merriman got blasted by Jason Taylor and Champ Bailey (likely his two top competitors for defensive player of the year honors) this week, saying that he shouldn't be eligible for the award because of his (alleged) steroid use. Merriman evidently responded this week: Merriman, nicknamed "Lights Out" for his punishing hits, said he sent Taylor a T-shirt and hat with his "Lights Out" logo. He also sent a bag of popcorn, "So he can watch us in the playoffs." I heart Shawne Merriman. Oh yeah, and I heart A.J. Smith too--here's why: All nine of their Pro Bowl players are under contract through at least 2008. In all, 19 core players - defined as starters, kicker, punter and projected 2007 starters - are under contract through 2009. Yeah. Show me your lightning bolt. - Last thing: followed a link on this other dude's blog yesterday to vote for www.matrixar.com="http://music.msn.com/music/artistofthemonth">MSN's Artist of the Year (music, not art), and the David Crowder Band is up for the award, along with INXS, Prince, Christina Aguilera and Kenny Chesney. I really don't know who comes up with the nominations or how it works, but however they got there, I'm amazed at how far these guys have come. They used to be (maybe still are?) the worship leaders at University Baptist Church in Waco, TX (the guys went to Baylor) and have spent the last decade or so rising to the top of the Christian music scene. I used to attend the Youth Specialties Conference every year and they were one of the main attractions, usually playing a concert one night and leading worship sessions throughout the week(end). They'd always be jamming on something instrumental as people were filing into the daily sessions, and it was always awesome--the Top gun theme, Sweet Child O' Mine, always something cool. The best part about Crowder himself, and the band as well, was (and no doubt still is) their humility. Always deflecting praise upward, they set a great example to other Christian artists, and to Christians in general. I have certainly lost touch with their music and their level of success, but I'm stoked that they've arrived; they definitely deserve it...

Not that I'm breaking any sort of ground with this observation or anything, but the guy is better at what he does than anybody I've ever seen in any sport (I obviously didn't get to see Wooden coach, so he doesn't count). At the NBA level, the mental edge is so huge, and Jackson consistently finds ways to get it and maintain it--over his players, his opponents, the referees, anybody. His most recent stroke of genius came on Thursday, a day off for the Lakers, as he questioned Kobe's physical capacity since surgery. Phil said something to the effect that he didn't "think Kobe would ever be back to 100 percent" after his off-season knee surgery. Kobe himself had said it might take until January for him to feel his best, but Phil kind of kicked him in the ass with that one, inferring that he couldn't be the 81-point-dropping Kobe of old. Well, last night (coincidentally--or not--against the Jazz, the team with the best record in the NBA), he was indeed the Kobe of old. If he's not 100 percent, then that third quarter was even more amazing than it appeared, and I'm not sure if that's even possible. If you missed it (TNT broadcast, the always-entertaining team of Marv Albert and Steve Kerr, the never-entertaining sideline schmuck Craig Sager), here's what Kobe did in the third quarter alone: 10 for 10 from the line (no big deal, I suppose), nine for nine from the floor (what?!?), including two threes, for a grand total of 30 points. In one quarter. Seriously. He tied his own franchise record for points in a q, and came within three of the all-time record (held by the Iceman), and more importantly, helped his team blow out the best team (so far) in the West. Not too shabby for a guy who's playing below capacity. He finished with 52 in just 34 minutes and on just 26 shots (yes, that was more than the rest of the starting lineup combined, but come on, he was feeling it). Kobe's pretty much the most competitive guy alive right now, and Jackson still has the ability to light that extra fire under him, which is unbelievable. It makes sense that a guy like Brian Shaw or Ron Harper would have an extra level and be able to play over his head for Jackson, but Phil has also been able to get more out of the best that have ever played, and that's what makes him the best ever. MJ was better than everybody before Phil got there, but Phil helped him buy into the team, lean a little bit on Scottie, take over when he needed to, and they won six titles. The number of egos on that team was incredible (MJ, Scottie, Rodman, Kukoc at the very least), and besides a few Jordan punching guys in practice stories (and Scottie sitting out the Kukoc game-winner), Phil never allowed them to let those egos get in the way of winning. By the time he got to L.A. (and several years before, I'm sure), he actually was one of those egos himself, which made the break-up of the big three (no, Rick Fox was not one of those three) inevitable. Shaq was dominant before Phil got there, but he too learned the trusting teammates thing, and took over when he needed to (then let Kobe handle the ball in the last few minutes so he didn't have to shoot free throws). Now Phil's got Kobe locked in, totally trusting him (did you see the high five when Kobe checked out last night? These guys are boys now), and he's working on Lamar Odom. He thought he could figure out Kwame Brown, but he might have just moved on to Andrew Bynum, who seems to be picking up things very quickly. And I can't resist a plug for my boy Farmar, who earned steay praise from Marv and Kerr last night for his quick adapatation to the triangle. If he could play defense, he'd be starting right now (sorry Smush); as it stands, he still might take over by the end of the year, especially if he keeps shooting well. The fact that Phil has this Laker team (whose only improvement was supposed to be the addition of VladRad, currently averaging a robust 4.9 points per) alone in first place in the Pacific division is remarkable, and it's the second straight season in which the majority of pundits (including too many to name that work on my show) ranked them well outside the top eight in the conference), yet we're in the early stages of another playoff appearance, and they're only going to get better. Thank goodness for Jeanie Buss, right?

But with whom did my Chargers have a huge first-place showdown Sunday evening? And whom did my Bruins battle in the Maui Invitational semifinals last night? So these (not so) casual rooting interests became immediate sources of conflict in this brand-new relationship, but definitely a good kind of conflict (I would categorize violence as among the bad kind). Nice that I got two wins out of the deal, too, because I don't know what I would have done in the role of the sore loser--I'm much better at being the magnanimous winner, so that made it easy. Anyways, this week got me thinking about how fortunate I am as a fan these days. So many of my friends and co-workers have teams they care deeply for and yet never have anything to be happy about, once their respective seasons are about two weeks old and their teams' playoff hopes have dwindled to zero. I've got a pretty darn good thing going right now: UCLA basketball is coming off a national championship game appearance, looks like they'll be at least as good this year, and could win the Maui Invitational tonight. The football team isn't great, but they won a bowl game last year, and with a respectable display against SC next weekend, should get a chance to duplicate that feat again this December. The Chargers currently sit upon almost every set of NFL power rankings you can find, and they're alone in first place in the tough AFC West (well, three out of four's not bad, right?). I have the pleasure of watching the best player in the NFL (and probably the best running back since Barry Sanders) score four touchdowns a week like it was mandatory, and watch the rise of one of the league's better QB's (though I admit I was VERY sorry to see Drew Brees go--how about him throwing for 510 in a loss the other day?!). Sure, our best defensive player did steroids, but when he comes back (CLEAN), the dude is just plain dominating, and almost more fun to watch than LT. Enough about the Chargers (though the very idea that anyone could ever say enough about the Bolts is an absurd one), how about the Padres? Two division titles in a row for the first time in franchise history? The best closer of all time not named Mariano Rivera? One of the coolest ballparks in America? Not too shabby. The Lakers made the playoffs last year, improbably, and were within one defensive rebound of upsetting the eventual conference finalist Suns. They're back and better this year, winning the battle of L.A. last night and now sitting alone in first place in the Pacific Division (I had to check that in a couple of different places to make sure I wasn't misreading the numbers. Sure enough, 8-3, first place, wow). We've got at least the second-best player in the world (I'd still like to think he's the best, but dang, LeBron is something else), Lamar Odom is becoming a strong number two, and Andrew Bynum might be an All-Star by next season. I was much more into the UCLA game last night (Darren Collison and Lorenzo Mata were both outstanding), but it was nice switching over to the pro guys afterward and seeing Kobe come up big down the stretch. All of this goes to say that I could very easily be following and rooting for bottom-of-the-barrel squads, and I am aware of plenty of folks in this situation. How much would it suck to be a Packers-Brewers-Bucks fan over the last five years (pretty much since Favre became the interception machine)? Or like a Blazers-U. of Oregon fan? Constant disappointment, right? A friend of mine represents the Oakland Raiders and Golden State Warriors. Sure, he has the Oakland A's to temper the former two's disappointment somewhat, but how brutal is that? In the NFL and NBA seasons, your teams are out of it before they even start. Of course, I conveniently didn't mention the Los Angeles Kings (bad for several years now) or the LA Galaxy (missed the playoffs this year after winning the MLS Cup last season), but there's more than enough positivity to outweigh anything else that might be going on, and for that I am quite thankful. Enjoy your Thanksgiving weekend...

It seems either Kerry is a contrived asshole who doesn't have enough specific stances on the issues or that Bush is the antichrist who seems determined to kill off as many innocent young American soldiers. How about this: can it be neither? Is it possible that both candidates, while shitty, actually do their jobs in the best interest in the nation?

1.
A noite, porém, rangeu e quebrou:
Viajantes clandestinos,
à procura de uma estrela mais distante,
quedaram-se emudecidos.
Apodreceu a carne, rangeram os ossos
e os dias escorreram, viscosos, iguais.
Estéril, a vida continuou:
a fome, a peste, a guerra – a morte!
2.
Secam as fontes e os rios,
ardem as searas e a nossa casa
e as árvores nuas amaldiçoam o céu,
sem sabermos porquê.
Morrem os jovens antes de se amarem
e os poetas com os poemas inacabados
e as crianças olhando espantadas para o céu,
sem saberem porquê.
Um vento noturno deixou insepultos
ventres e seios e desejos de maternidade
nunca realizados,
e secou risos e cantares subindo para o céu,
sem sabermos porquê.
Andam as guerras pelo mundo:
somente possuímos uma voz, uma voz
e essa voz não se calará
e nós sabemos porquê!
3.
Antes da metralha e do medo e da morte,
antes de um corpo jovem, anônimo, apodrecer
esquecido à chuva e ao vento,
ou singrar, boiando, na água mansa,
ou se despedaçar contra o céu indiferente...
Antes do pavor e do pranto e da prece,
um adeus longo e triste
aos poemas no fundo da gaveta,
e à renúncia ao teu amor brando
e às noites calmas e ao sonho inacabado...
Antes da morte sem-mistério,
um adeus longo e triste
à luta de que não se partilhou!...
4.
Longe, a bala rasgando o luar;
longe, o corpo caindo;
longe, o sangue, vermelho e morno e espesso.
Aqui, à face desta lua e da noite,
iguais às outras luas e às outras noites,
iguais como o sangue vermelho e morno e espesso
dos homens ...
Aqui,
oculto e surdo e retido,
o sangue,
vermelho e morno e espesso,
igual!
5.
As feridas abrem-se
para o céu distante na sua impassibilidade
e destilam as sete pragas
que desabaram
sobre o ventre das nossas mulheres
e o sonho dos nossos filhos
e a nossa seara e olival.
É da glória que nascem os vermes;
e as estrelas,
de mil pedaços ensanguentados,
subindo a noite vertical!
6.
Esta carne envilecida e santa,
a gerar os prados e a nuvem e a chuva,
levada pelo sol e pelo vento...
Esta carne envilecida e santa,
apodrecendo em todas as latitudes,
presente na angústia da noite devastada...
Esta carne envilecida e santa,
forçada a negar a verdade pressentida,
ecoando os versos dos poetas desconhecidos...
Esta carne envilecida e santa,
abrindo-se em flor aos quatro cavaleiros,
é o homem
e a vida breve!

A força não está, então, em ampliar a segurança e sua força bruta, mas em educar todos para que se comportem dentro de parâmetros harmônicos de convivência. Isso não se faz com uma educação que privilegia o individualismo de se encontrar a profissão, a vocação profissional [até porque a recompensa profissional pode não chegar!], ao contrário, faz-se com construção de valores e de percepção axiológica da pessoa humana. Isso não é, como já disse, instantâneo, mas é preciso, o quanto antes, que se dê o primeiro passo para uma educação mais humana. A segurança [pelo menos em parte] está aí.

Até um determinado momento da minha vida, eu acreditei sinceramente que o mundo caminha para a melhoria. Talvez porque cria em um suposto deus, eu via isso como uma possibilidade de avanço, posto que essa crença implicava a confiança de que esse suposto deus não existiria por acaso, mas sim para melhorar o lugar onde vivemos.
Quando parei de acreditar em seres que, para mim, são imaginários, continuei crendo, no entanto, que o mundo poderia caminhar para um futuro melhor. Nesse momento, a nova possibilidade vinha dos próprios homens, aos quais eu confiava a tarefa nada fácil de ter-consciência.
Ao me dar conta de que tanto a crença religiosa quanto a relativa ao futuro da humanidade eram infantilidades minhas, o que se me apresentou foi isto: o homem é o destruidor e o construtor de si; mas, infelizmente, perdeu as rédeas de seu pensar e encontra-se impedido por si próprio de construir algo de bom para si; na verdade, ele destruiu o seu poder de construir plenamente. É possível entender-me? Sou ouvido? O homem, na oposição entre "construir" e "destruir", deixou vencer (ou quis, ou fez, ou preferiu, ou... aconteceu?) o "destruir".

Num meio dia de fim de primavera
Tive um sonho como uma fotografia
Vi Jesus Cristo descer à terra,
Veio pela encosta de um monte
Tornado outra vez menino,
A correr e a rolar-se pela erva
E a arrancar flores para as deitar fora
E a rir de modo a ouvir-se de longe.
Tinha fugido do céu,
Era nosso demais para fingir
De segunda pessoa da Trindade.
No céu era tudo falso, tudo em desacordo
Com flores e árvores e pedras,
No céu tinha que estar sempre sério
E de vez em quando de se tornar outra vez homem
E subir para a cruz, e estar sempre a morrer
Com uma coroa toda à roda de espinhos
E os pés espetados por um prego com cabeça,
E até com um trapo à roda da cintura
Como os pretos nas ilustrações.
Nem sequer o deixavam ter pai e mãe
Como as outras crianças.
O seu pai era duas pessoas -
Um velho chamado José, que era carpinteiro,
E que não era pai dele;
E o outro pai era uma pomba estúpida,
A única pomba feia do mundo
Porque não era do mundo nem era pomba.
E a sua mãe não tinha amado antes de o ter.
Não era mulher: era uma mala
Em que ele tinha vindo do céu.
E queriam que ele, que só nascera da mãe,
E nunca tivera pai para amar com respeito,
Pregasse a bondade e a justiça!
Um dia que Deus estava a dormir
E o Espírito Santo andava a voar,
Ele foi à caixa dos milagres e roubou três,
Com o primeiro fez que ninguém soubesse que ele tinha fugido.
Com o segundo criou-se eternamente humano e menino.
Com o terceiro criou um Cristo eternamente na cruz
E deixou-o pregado na cruz que há no céu
E serve de modelo às outras.
Depois fugiu para o sol
E desceu pelo primeiro raio que apanhou.
Hoje vive na minha aldeia comigo.
É uma criança bonita de riso e natural.
Limpa o nariz no braço direito,
Chapinha nas poças de água,
Colhe as flores e gosta delas e esquece-as.
Atira pedras nos burros,
Rouba as frutas dos pomares
E foge a chorar e a gritar dos cães.
E, porque sabe que elas não gostam
E que toda a gente acha graça,
Corre atrás das raparigas
Que vão em ranchos pelas estradas
Com as bilhas às cabeças
E levanta-lhes as saias.
A mim ensinou-me tudo.
Ensinou-me a olhar para as cousas,
Aponta-me todas as cousas que há nas flores.
Mostra-me como as pedras são engraçadas
Quando a gente as tem na mão
E olha devagar para elas.
[...]
E depois, cansado de dizer mal de Deus,
O Menino Jesus adormece nos meus braços
E eu levo-o ao colo para casa.
..........................................................................
Ele mora comigo na minha casa a meio do outeiro.
Ele é a Eterna Criança, o deus que faltava.
Ele é o humano que é natural,
Ele é o divino que sorri e que brinca.
E por isso é que eu sei com toda a certeza
Que ele é o Menino Jesus verdadeiro.
Damo-nos tão bem um com o outro
Na companhia de tudo
Que nunca pensamos um no outro,
Mas vivemos juntos a dois
Com um acordo íntimo
Como a mão direita e a esquerda.
[...]
Depois eu conto-lhe histórias das cousas só dos homens
E ele sorri, porque tudo é incrível.
Ri dos reis e dos que não são reis,
E tem pena de ouvir falar das guerras,
E dos comércios, e dos navios
Que ficam fumo no ar dos altos-mares.
Porque ele sabe que tudo isso falta àquela verdade
Que uma flor tem ao florescer
E que anda com a luz do sol
A variar os montes e os vales,
E a fazer doer aos olhos os muros caiados.
Depois ele adormece e eu deito-o
Levo-o ao colo para dentro de casa
E deito-o, despindo-o lentamente
E como seguindo um ritual muito limpo
E todo materno até ele estar nu.
Ele dorme dentro da minha alma
E às vezes acorda de noite
E brinca com os meus sonhos,
Vira uns de pernas para o ar,
Põe uns em cima dos outros
E bate as palmas sozinho
Sorrindo para o meu sono.
.................................................................................
Quando eu morrer, filhinho,
Seja eu a criança, o mais pequeno.
Pega-me tu no colo
E leva-me para dentro da tua casa.
Despe o meu ser cansado e humano
E deita-me na tua cama.
E conta-me histórias, caso eu acorde,
Para eu tornar a adormecer.
E dá-me sonhos teus para eu brincar
Até que nasça qualquer dia
Que tu sabes qual é.
....................................................................................
Esta é a história do meu Menino Jesus,
Por que razão que se perceba
Não há de ser ela mais verdadeira
Que tudo quanto os filósofos pensam
E tudo quanto as religiões ensinam?

SEOtitle type='text'SEO[indicação_] Ontem não te vi em Babilónia, de António Lobo AntunesSEO/titleSEO
SEOcontent type='html'SEO
“[...] curioso como certos episódios não abandonam a gente”
António Lobo Antunes
finalmente, na noite de ontem (29/11/2011), terminei de ler o livro Ontem não te vi em Babilónia, de António Lobo Antunes, são quatrocentas e trinta e cinco páginas pesadas que uma grande amiga me emprestou para eu me divertir nestas férias, não, não, apaguem tudo, tudo não, só o que se fala de páginas e de diversão, é um livro, não são páginas, é melancolia, não diversão
você aí, sim, que está lendo, pode achar estranho o jeito que estou a escrever, mas aprendi (será?) a fazê-lo como Lobo Antunes, que inicia os parágrafos, a não ser o primeiro de cada capítulo, com letras minúsculas, e finaliza os parágrafos sem pontos, e interpõe pensamentos distintos num mesmo parágrafo, e faz um jogo fantástico com a língua
sinceramente, achei muito estranho, no início, chegando eu a não entender várias frases, derivado (esta palavra é frequente) em parte do fato de ele não colocar muitas vírgulas, de tal modo que o próprio leitor, por seu conhecimento, entenda em que parte da(s) frase(s) ela(s) deveria(m) estar
o livro é composto por seis capítulos, cada um com quatro partes, três personagens são fixos: Ana Emília, uma mulher que não consegue esquecer-se do suicídio da filha, a qual contava quinze anos no ato, Osvaldo, um policial reformado que vive atormentado com lembranças do passado, entre elas, sua mãe, seu pai, seu casamento morto, e a esposa de Osvaldo, que, assim como o marido, e todos, remexe as lembranças da vida
como eu havia dito, cada capítulo é composto por quatro partes, mas eu só fiz referência a três personagens
bem, em cada capítulo dá-se voz a um personagem que faz parte das lembranças dos outros três
os nomes dos capítulos são horas, o primeiro, Meia noite, o segundo, Uma hora da manha, até Cinco horas da manhã, isto é (esta expressão também frequente), os personagens estão acordados, e a exposição das lembranças (somente as que eles querem expor) são feitas ao longo dessas horas
característica marcante do livro é a referência constante à ditadura, também representada em outras obras do escritor
ele foi médico do exército português na África
a parte principal do livro, a emocional, abstenho-me de falar dela a você, leitor, é uma experiência pessoal, forte, arrebatadora, que necessita de silêncio para ser vivida, leitura silêncio, a dor silêncio, o prazer silêncio, a morte silêncio, a vida
também silêncio?
o livro não é fácil
mas, quem quer facilidade são os fracos...
o autor foi laureado em 2007 com o Prêmio Camões, o maior da língua portuguesa, e, para mim, entra na lista de grandes escritores portugueses contemporâneos, ao lado de José Saramago e Vergílio Ferreira
como não poderia ser diferente, não abster-me-ei de citar alguns trechos da obra, pouquíssimos comparados aos que eu podia recolher e fazer um livro só para mim:
“em certas noites quando o passado nos vence mesmo que não falemos com ela uma mulher ajuda, há memórias que se movem e nos incomodam por dentro ao trocarem de lugar [...]” (ANTUNES, 2008, p. 270).
“[...] tudo se ausenta de nós com o passar da idade, feições, ideias e domingos no parque, ficam a surpresa o medo, uma pergunta aterrada
− O que foi?
e no caso de respondermos voltam a cara, não escutam, um vinco que não existia a crescer na bochecha, uma prega ou uma veia se é que possuem veias a suplicar
− Não digas” (ANTUNES, 2008, p. 118-119).
“[...] no outono ninguém consegue dormir e no entanto desci um instante no interior de mim quase a encontrar a lembrança do que fui e regressei à tona, [...] por que motivo só algumas fracções do corpo fazem parte de nós e as restantes sem utilidade alguma, incomodando, pesando, celulite, manchas, demasiada pele no pescoço, uma outra voz na nossa voz que nos completa as frases e treme [...]” (ANTUNES, 2008, p. 130).
“os olhos dele vazios e a calva sabedora, sempre temi que nos carecas se vissem as ideias aparafusando-se umas nas outras, soltando molas, vibrando, há relógios assim de mecanismo ao léu e um balançar de volantes, se eu fosse careca os sentimentos à mostra cobertos de cicatrizes e sardas [...]” (ANTUNES, 2008, p. 161).
“[...] o meu pai tirava o boné se passava um enterro e ficava quieto a olhá-lo, o enterro sumia-se na esquina e só então o meu pai o boné na cabeça, se ele agora aqui tirava-o a mim que não acabo de passar [...]” (ANTUNES, 2008, p. 286).
“[...] deviam chover lágrimas quando o coração pesa muito e há momentos, palavra de honra, não se compreende o motivo mas pesa, sente-se dentro o
(ia escrever incómodo e não incómodo conforme não tristeza, não dor, como se traduz isto, não sei)
deviam chover lágrimas quando o coração pesa muito e há momento palavra de honra que pesa” (ANTUNES, 2008, p. 324).

SEOtitle type='text'SEO[artigo_] Deus coletivo e deus individualSEO/titleSEO
SEOcontent type='html'SEOwww.matrixar.com style="display: block; margin: 0px auto 10px; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 320px; height: 273px;" src="http://www.matrixar.com/-4TDz_kAU4kU/Tv3TsmXiK3I/AAAAAAAAAFc/KWq3NebcSPw/s320/5.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5691938267233135474" border="0" />
Depois de inúmeros questionamentos, consegui entender que os deuses nos quais se acredita – pelo menos no caso do cristianismo (deve ser assim em várias outras religiões) – são diferentes, quando analisamos a imagem coletiva que se tem dos supostos deuses e a imagem construída individualmente.
Na verdade, "o homem nasce bom; a sociedade o corrompe" (Oi, Rousseau!)? Não.
Brincadeiras à parte, penso que esta ideia pode parecer difícil de ser entendida, porque as pessoas já “nascem” com crenças impostas. Você pode perguntar para qualquer cristão se ele acredita no que crê por realmente ter certeza ou porque foi ensinado desde pequeno. Em meio a alguns argumentos falhos, ele se explicará mal, na maioria dos casos.
Enfim, o que quero dizer, voltando ao ponto inicial, é que grande parte das pessoas são levadas a crer em algum deus pelo famoso argumento da Causa Primordial: tudo no mundo teria uma causa; se fôssemos em busca da causa primeira, esta seria "Deus". Este argumento supõe que tudo, necessariamente, deve ter uma causa, não aceitando, portanto, que pudéssemos estar na terra por acaso. Como "por acaso" dói em algumas pessoas, é mais fácil acreditar que há um irmão mais velho a nos olhar do alto. No entanto, essa ideia esbarra numa pergunta: “Qual a causa de ‘Deus’?”.
Em relação ao que eu disse no início, esse argumento é o que leva muitas pessoas a crerem em seres superiores. As igrejas, dominadoras de religiões, fazem com que as pessoas se confundam e achem de fato que o deus pregado coletivamente é o mesmo deus individual, aquele nascido do argumento que eu expus.
Como boa parte das pessoas não têm capacidade de perceber que o deus coletivo é fruto de imposição de homens, elas acatam essa divindade entendida como se fosse a mesma para todos os indivíduos, mas entram em conflito individual quando a divindade coletiva destoa da individual.
Na verdade, a criação dessa divindade coletiva (ou deus coletivo) nasce do argumento já exposto; e sua imposição é um fator que impõe modos de conduta, códigos morais. No caso do cristianismo, há um livro que depois de muito tempo recebeu a alcunha de “Palavra de ‘Deus’”. Mesmo que algumas de suas partes sejam ultrapassadas – e que já se tenham sido provadas as inúmeras contradições e falsidades existentes nele –, os dominadores do deus coletivo ainda insistem em impô-las, posto que querem dominar.

El Secretario General de la OCDE Ángel Gurría, con tono desenfadado, hacía más recomendaciones del tipo, bajen los salarios, recorten más aún las pensiones, reduzcan las indemnizaciones por despido, abran más la mano del despido libre. Es por su bien, hay que "abrir el apetito" para que se animen a buscar trabajo e inventen iniciativas. Su aspecto era tan lamentable como su discurso, su mediocridad mayor aún. Cualquier economista lo hubiera suspendido en el primer cuatrimestre de curso. ¡Estamos en manos de tal calaña!

SEOcontent type='html'SEO
Un ciclo muy interesante sobre el nuevo malestar en la cultura, organizado por mi amigo Luis Sáez, profesor en la Facultad de Filosofía de la Universidad de Granada. En el ciclo intervino, por ejemplo, Jacobo Muñoz.
Las grandes corrientes filosóficas del siglo XX, y sus expresiones en el presente, vienen realizando una profunda revisión de la existencia europea y occidental, en un esfuerzo por señalar el modo en que nuestra civilización ha entrado, progresivamente, en una decadencia que afecta al suelo profundo del espacio socio-cultural. Al hacerlo, no han dudado en diagnosticar, allí donde sólo se creía ver progreso, los síntomas de una enfermedad, a veces llamadanihilismo, otras muerte de la razón autónoma. Pues las comunidades, las culturas en su totalidad, también experimentan desfallecimientos que malogran la salud de su desarrollo.
La asistencia es gratuita. También objeto de agradecimiento para quienes están acostumbrados a dialogar en solitario.

Hablamos con Juan Pundik, presidente de Filium (Asociación para la prevención del Maltrato al Niño) fundada en 1977; presidente de la Plataforma Internacional contra la Medicalización de la Infancia (fundada en 2006); director de la Escuela Española de Psicoterapia y Psicoanálisis (fundada en 1976) y autor de algunos libros que recomendamos más abajo en la revista. También tenemos en esta video entrevista al periodista más comprometido en España en temas de sanidad, Miguel Jara. Y a Francisco Almodovar, abogado especializado en las reacciones adversas de los medicamentos. Esta entrevista es una combinación perfecta entre un profesional de la psique, un concocido periodista en el ámbito de la salud por su labor crítca y constructiva para la sociedad, y un abogado que nos explica realmente qué derecho tenemos los "enfermos" y los padres de los supuestos "pacientes infantiles" a los que manipulan con el miedo para medicarlos. Una entrevista comprometida y muy esclarecedora para todos aquellos que se cuestionan la medicalización infantil. Una visión espeluznante a tener muy en cuenta por los padres, docentes y demás profesionales de la sanidad. www.matrixar.com="http://www.uakix.com/tv/media/ninos-hiperactivos-o-ninos-del-cambio" rel="nofollow" style="color: #ff6600; font-size: 14px; text-align: center;" target="_blank">Ver video... www.matrixar.com="http://www.uakix.com/tv/" rel="nofollow" style="color: #003399; text-align: center;" target="_blank">Encuentra más videos de interés en Uakix TVwww.matrixar.com align="absMiddle" border="0" height="66" src="http://www.uakix.com/2012/revistas/10-30/flechamas.jpg" width="100" /> | ||

De Patitos Feos y Personalidades Intensas - Enfoques Alternativos del TDAHpor Almawww.matrixar.com="http://www.uakix.com/articulos/de-patitos-feos-y-personalidades-intensas-enfoques-alternativos-del-tdah.html" rel="nofollow" style="color: #003399; text-align: center;" target="_blank">www.matrixar.com align="left" alt="Texto alternativo" border="0" height="120" src="http://www.uakix.com/2012/revistas/10-30/articulo1.jpg" width="250" /> Sin embargo, el problema serio comenzó cuando después de la Segunda Guerra Mundial empezaron a tratar con éxito a niños con graves lesiones cerebrales utilizando estimulantes como las anfetaminas o los antecesores de la supuesta "medicina-milagro" de hoy: los metilfenidatos más conocidos por el nombre comercial de Ritalina. En vista de los buenos resultados logrados, en las décadas siguientes su uso se extendió a los niños "difíciles de tratar", contestones, rebeldes, que se salían cada vez más de los marcos impuestos por un profesorado desbordado ante el creciente número de infantes insumisos. Como suele ocurrir en estos casos, la industria farmaceutica vió un filón de oro en este trastorno tan difuso, y cuyos sintomas se prestan a interpretaciones subjetivas, y desde los 70 proliferaron los estudios y análisis en apoyo a la medicación de los pequeños a pesar de reconocerse abiertamente la ignorancia existente en lo que respecta a los efectos de estas sustancias sobre el cerebro infantil en pleno proceso de desarrollo. www.matrixar.com="http://www.uakix.com/articulos/de-patitos-feos-y-personalidades-intensas-enfoques-alternativos-del-tdah.html" rel="nofollow" style="color: #003399; text-align: center;" target="_blank">Leer más... | ||

Esperanza para el TDA-Hpor Rosina Uriartewww.matrixar.com="http://www.uakix.com/articulos/esperanza-para-el-tda-h.html" rel="nofollow" style="color: #003399; text-align: center;" target="_blank">www.matrixar.com align="left" alt="imagen" border="0" height="120" src="http://www.uakix.com/2012/revistas/10-30/articulo2.jpg" width="120" /> Cada día más y más niños están recibiendo el diagnóstico de TDA-H, siglas que representan el Trastorno por Déficit de Atención con o sin Hiperactividad. El TDA-H está considerado un trastorno mental y por lo tanto, psiquiátrico, con lo cual son también cada día más los niños tratados con psicofármacos que intervienen en su funcionamiento cerebral, con los posibles riesgos que esto conlleva. El aumento de este diagnóstico ha sido tal en los últimos años que en algunos círculos se habla de “pandemia”. Sin embargo, otros hablan de un “infradiagnóstico” y de la necesidad de medicar a muchos niños más. www.matrixar.com="http://www.uakix.com/articulos/esperanza-para-el-tda-h.html" rel="nofollow" style="color: #003399; text-align: center;" target="_blank">Leer más... | www.matrixar.com alt=" " height="230" src="http://www.uakix.com/plantillas/flash/b.gif" width="10" /> | Drogando a los Niños: la Psiquiatría Destruyendo Vidaspor Jan Eastgatewww.matrixar.com="http://www.uakix.com/articulos/drogando-a-los-ninos-la-psiquiatria-destruyendo-vidas.html" rel="nofollow" style="color: #003399; text-align: center;" target="_blank">www.matrixar.com align="left" alt="imagen" border="0" height="120" src="http://www.uakix.com/2012/revistas/10-30/articulo3.jpg" width="120" /> Los artículos de los periódicos a menudo pregonan las “maravillas” de las investigaciones psicofarmacéuticas actuales para el tratamiento de los “problemas” y “discapacidades” emocionales y de aprendizaje que tienen los niños. Parecen razonables. Parecen convincentes; la ciencia conquista de nuevo nuestro universo material para el beneficio de la humanidad. ¿Sería posible que alguien objetara la posibilidad de hacer que quienes tienen problemas tuvieran una vida normal? Los padres de Daniel sí. Y también los de Cory. Podrían discutir con vehemencia y pasión. www.matrixar.com="http://www.uakix.com/articulos/drogando-a-los-ninos-la-psiquiatria-destruyendo-vidas.html" rel="nofollow" style="color: #003399; text-align: center;" target="_blank">Leer más... |

¿Como manifiestan el sufrimiento los niños de hoy?por Grupo de Investigación y Trabajo sobre el Síndrome de Hiperactividad con/o sin déficit de Atención de la Asociación Psicoanalítica de Madridwww.matrixar.com="http://www.uakix.com/articulos/%c2%bfcomo-manifiestan-el-sufrimiento-los-ninos-de-hoy.html" rel="nofollow" style="color: #003399; text-align: center;" target="_blank">www.matrixar.com align="left" alt="imagen" border="0" height="120" src="http://www.uakix.com/2012/revistas/10-30/articulo4.jpg" width="120" /> Llegan a nuestras consultas niños y adolescentes diagnosticados de trastorno de hiperactividad con o sin déficit de atención, con toda una diversidad de problemáticas que abarcan, desde la inquietud, la distracción leve hasta patologías severas. Todas ellas recogidas y rotuladas como “trastorno mental único” y abordadas con una única solución “el tratamiento farmacológico”. Los psicoanalistas ofrecemos un abordaje diferente para este tipo de trastorno, pues tenemos en cuenta, la historia particular de cada niño y el funcionamiento mental individual. El psicoanálisis cuenta con una teoría que explica como se va constituyendo lo mental en el niño y los estados que atraviesa a lo largo de su desarrollo, aportando, además, una manera de entender sus diferentes estados de ánimo: sus rabietas, su agresividad, sus miedos, su tristeza, su curiosidad, su inquietud, sus amores y sus odios.. www.matrixar.com="http://www.uakix.com/articulos/%c2%bfcomo-manifiestan-el-sufrimiento-los-ninos-de-hoy.html" rel="nofollow" style="color: #003399; text-align: center;" target="_blank">Leer más... | www.matrixar.com alt=" " height="230" src="http://www.uakix.com/plantillas/flash/b.gif" width="10" /> | La Infancia Empastillada (Lo que Nuestros Hijos Necesitan es Amor)por Juan Pundikwww.matrixar.com="http://www.uakix.com/articulos/la-infancia-empastillada-lo-que-nuestros-hijos-necesitan-es-amor.html" rel="nofollow" style="color: #003399; text-align: center;" target="_blank">www.matrixar.com align="left" alt="imagen" border="0" height="120" src="http://www.uakix.com/2012/revistas/10-30/articulo11.jpg" width="120" /> Me escribe Mirta Guelman, pediatra, desde Rosario Argentina. “Los padres de Miguel de 5 años 7 meses me consultaron el 3 de febrero del 2009, Su hijo había sido diagnosticado de Déficit de atención con hiperactividad habiéndosele prescripto metilfenidato, un estimulante y risperidona un antipsicótico, para ayudarlo supuestamente a adaptarse a la institución escolar. Se le diagnosticaron asimismo retraso mental y dificultades motrices. Los padres se presentaron con los resultados de electroencefalogramas, tomografía computarizada, estudios e informes complementarios en los que no se constataba organicidad alguna. Este niño proveniente de una zona rural había cumplido un nivel inicial de preescolaridad con una docente exclusiva para él. En 2008, lo trasladaron para ingresar al preescolar en zona urbana donde se encontró compartiendo una docente con otros 20 niños. Desde el inicio presentó dificultades de adaptación y de aprendizaje, motivos por los cuales las autoridades escolares indicaron la necesidad de consultas que condujeron al diagnóstico y a la medicación. www.matrixar.com="http://www.uakix.com/articulos/la-infancia-empastillada-lo-que-nuestros-hijos-necesitan-es-amor.html" rel="nofollow" style="color: #003399; text-align: center;" target="_blank">Leer más... |

La escuela tradicional está colapsando, entrevista con Noemi Paymalpor www.matrixar.com="http://lavoz.com.ar/" style="color: #1155cc;" target="_blank">LAVOZ.com.arwww.matrixar.com="http://www.uakix.com/articulos/la-escuela-tradicional-esta-colapsando.html" rel="nofollow" style="color: #003399; text-align: center;" target="_blank">www.matrixar.com align="left" alt="imagen" border="0" height="120" src="http://www.uakix.com/2012/revistas/10-30/articulo8.jpg" width="120" /> La nueva generación de niños inquietos que llenan los colegios de todo el mundo necesitan una escuela en las antípodas de la tradicional. O, lo que es lo mismo, una institución que no confunda chicos movedizos con hiperactivos o con déficit de atención, que motive a los alumnos, que no los aburra ni los disperse. Una escuela vital, “biointegral” que base las técnicas de enseñanza en las emociones sin descuidar el intelecto. A grandes rasgos, ese es el planteo de Noemí Paymal, antropóloga francesa que trabaja hace años en América latina. La especialista en educación alternativa y directora del Centro de Investigación Pedagógica 3000 La Paz, en Bolivia, asegura que existen herramientas muy sencillas y efectivas para tratar con los chicos del “tercer milenio”. Habla de una pedagogía holística que entienda y atienda las necesidades de los niños y jóvenes de hoy. www.matrixar.com="http://www.uakix.com/articulos/la-escuela-tradicional-esta-colapsando.html" rel="nofollow" style="color: #003399; text-align: center;" target="_blank">Leer más... | www.matrixar.com alt=" " height="230" src="http://www.uakix.com/plantillas/flash/b.gif" width="10" /> | ¿Menos medicación para el TDAH? con ejercicio actívopor En Buenas Manoswww.matrixar.com="http://www.uakix.com/articulos/%C2%BFmenos-medicacion-para-el-tdah.html" rel="nofollow" style="color: #003399; text-align: center;" target="_blank">www.matrixar.com align="left" alt="imagen" border="0" height="120" src="http://www.uakix.com/2012/revistas/10-30/articulo9.jpg" width="120" /> El Dr. John J.

Es autor, entre otros, del libro Spark: The Revolutionary New Science of Exercise and the Brain. Un estudio reciente, publicado en la revista Science, mostró que el ejercicio activo provoca en el cerebro cambios demostrables en la cantidad de receptores de dopamina o, en otras palabras, cómo influye en la bioquímica cerebral humana. www.matrixar.com="http://www.uakix.com/articulos/%C2%BFmenos-medicacion-para-el-tdah.html" rel="nofollow" style="color: #003399; text-align: center;" target="_blank">Leer más... |

¿Es Posible Erradicar el Trastorno de Hiperactividad sin Necesidad de Fármacos?por Carlos Gardeta Oliveroswww.matrixar.com="http://www.uakix.com/articulos/%c2%bfes-posible-erradicar-el-trastorno-de-hiperactividad-sin-necesidad-de-farmacos.html" rel="nofollow" style="color: #003399; text-align: center;" target="_blank">www.matrixar.com align="left" alt="imagen" border="0" height="120" src="http://www.uakix.com/2012/revistas/10-30/articulo6.jpg" width="120" /> La Hiperactividad es un titular periodístico recurrente y puesto a debate cada principio y cada final de curso académico. Trasfondo, en multitud de veces, del tan temido y discutido “fracaso escolar”, ambos problemas despiertan siempre perplejidad en nuestra sociedad desarrollada ante la falta de verdaderas explicaciones, y lo que es más preocupante, de soluciones eficaces. En los últimos años, la hiperactividad ha sido detectada y diagnosticada con alarmante frecuencia, y si en un principio se la trató conductualmente, recientemente está siendo considerada como una enfermedad en la que se utilizan fármacos para paliar sus efectos. ¿Pero sería posible erradicar verdaderamente el trastorno actuando sobre sus causas? www.matrixar.com="http://www.uakix.com/articulos/%c2%bfes-posible-erradicar-el-trastorno-de-hiperactividad-sin-necesidad-de-farmacos.html" rel="nofollow" style="color: #003399; text-align: center;" target="_blank">Leer más... | www.matrixar.com alt=" " height="230" src="http://www.uakix.com/plantillas/flash/b.gif" width="10" /> | Ritalin y sus efectos secundariospor En Buenas Manoswww.matrixar.com="http://www.uakix.com/articulos/ritalin-y-sus-efectos-secundarios.html" rel="nofollow" style="color: #003399; text-align: center;" target="_blank">www.matrixar.com align="left" alt="imagen" border="0" height="120" src="http://www.uakix.com/2012/revistas/10-30/articulo7.jpg" width="120" /> Los psicoestimulantes pertenecen a una clase de fármacos que tienen por objeto intensificar la actividad cerebral, es decir que ocasionan un aumento en la agudeza mental, la atención y la energía. Estos fármacos tienen una estructura química similar a la de una familia de neurotransmisores cerebrales, llamados monoaminas, que incluyen la norepinefrina y la dopamina. Los psicoestimulantes tienen la propiedad de aumentar la cantidad de estas sustancias químicas en el cerebro. Los más utilizados son el metilfenidato, el famoso y controvertido Ritalin que constituye más del 90% de las prescripciones en los EE.UU., la dextroanfetamina o la pemolina. ¿Qué ocurre con el Ritalin? Se trata de un derivado de las anfetaminas, el metilfenidato. Está químicamente emparentado con estas y funcionalmente con la cocaína. Dicho de otro modo, tiene una estructura molecular afín a la primera, pero actúa sobre el cerebro, con mecanismos similares a los de la segunda. No es un fármaco nuevo. www.matrixar.com="http://www.uakix.com/articulos/ritalin-y-sus-efectos-secundarios.html" rel="nofollow" style="color: #003399; text-align: center;" target="_blank">Leer más... |

El fraude de los niños hiperactivos, con déficit de atención, de su tratamiento con psicoestimulantes y su alternativapor Marcela Çaldumbidewww.matrixar.com="http://www.uakix.com/articulos/el-fraude-de-los-ninos-hiperactivos-con-deficit-de-atencion-de-su-tratamiento-con-psicoestimulantes-y-su-alternativa.html" rel="nofollow" style="color: #003399; text-align: center;" target="_blank">www.matrixar.com align="left" alt="imagen" border="0" height="120" src="http://www.uakix.com/2012/revistas/10-30/articulo12.jpg" width="120" /> Una enfermedad inventada Cinco millones de jóvenes norteamericanos son diagnosticados con el DHDA (desorden de hiperactividad/ Déficit de Atención). Según Francisco Montañés "Uno de cada 20 niños sufre hiperactividad en España." El déficit de atención y la hiperactividad son enfermedades inventadas, como afirma el renombrado neurólogo pediátrico, el Dr. Fred Baughman Jr. "Son una ilusión, una maquinación y una decepción (1)" Para entender esto hay que comprender cómo la definición del síndrome ha cambiado con el tiempo y cuales son los criterios diagnósticos actuales. El ADHD fue identificado por primera vez como un desorden específico en 1902. En ese año, George Still describió 43 niños que presentaban agresividad, rebeldía, desórdenes emocionales, atención continua limitada y mala conducta respecto a atenerse a normas. www.matrixar.com="http://www.uakix.com/articulos/el-fraude-de-los-ninos-hiperactivos-con-deficit-de-atencion-de-su-tratamiento-con-psicoestimulantes-y-su-alternativa.html" rel="nofollow" style="color: #003399; text-align: center;" target="_blank">Leer más... | www.matrixar.com alt=" " height="230" src="http://www.uakix.com/plantillas/flash/b.gif" width="10" /> | Lo que no te cuentan sobre los medicamentos para tratar el trastorno por déficit de atención y la hiperactividadpor Afredo Embidwww.matrixar.com="http://www.uakix.com/articulos/lo-que-no-te-cuentan-sobre-los-medicamentos-para-tratar-el-trastorno-por-deficit-de-atencion-y-la-hiperactividad.html" rel="nofollow" style="color: #003399; text-align: center;" target="_blank">www.matrixar.com align="left" alt="imagen" border="0" height="120" src="http://www.uakix.com/2012/revistas/10-30/articulo13.jpg" width="120" /> Según un nuevo estudio publicado por la Facultad de Medicina de Familia de New York (Medical College of Family Medicine), la droga Adderall está vinculada a ataques cardíacos y muerte súbita en niños y adultos jóvenes. 1 El Adderall salió al mercado en 1996 como una anfetamina farmacéutica que sirve para estimular el sistema nervioso. Adderall es un psicoestimulante que contiene dextrometilfenidato compuesto por una combinación de dextroanfetamina y sales de anfetamina racémicas. Es fabricando por Shire Pharmaceuticals. Se prescribe con la excusa de tratar el trastorno por déficit de atención y la hiperactividad (TDAH). También se utiliza para tratar la narcolepsia y cuadros severos de depresión. La incidencia de ataques cardíacos y muerte súbita es mayor en niños tratados con Adderall regularmente, pero también afecta a los que la han consumido anteriormente como lo revela un estudio, publicado en el Diario de la Junta Americana de Medicina de Familia. www.matrixar.com="http://www.uakix.com/articulos/lo-que-no-te-cuentan-sobre-los-medicamentos-para-tratar-el-trastorno-por-deficit-de-atencion-y-la-hiperactividad.html" rel="nofollow" style="color: #003399; text-align: center;" target="_blank">Leer más... |

Un artículo que hace reflexionar ¿Tenía razón el Dr. Feingold?por Reflexiones de un pediatra curtidowww.matrixar.com="http://www.uakix.com/articulos/un-articulo-que-hace-reflexionar-%C2%BFtenia-razon-el-dr.-feingold.html" rel="nofollow" style="color: #003399; text-align: center;" target="_blank">www.matrixar.com align="left" alt="imagen" border="0" height="120" src="http://www.uakix.com/2012/revistas/10-30/articulo10.jpg" width="120" /> Parece que existe una conexión del trastorno por déficit de atención con hiperactividad con ciertas alergias e intolerancias alimentarías. Hace más de 30 años, el doctor Benjamin Feingold, alergólogo y pediatra norteamericano, desarrolló una dieta libre de aditivos (colorantes artificiales, potenciadores del sabor, conservantes...) y salicilatos (“parientes” del ácido acetilsalicílico, presentes en ciertas frutas y verduras). En su opinión, esta dieta podía prevenir ciertas alergias infantiles. Para su sorpresa –y la de los padres de los niños tratados– muchos de los menores que la siguieron no sólo mejoraron sus síntomas de alergia, sino que experimentaron cambios muy positivos en su comportamiento. Niños problemáticos, inquietos y con escasa capacidad de concentración y atención –signos del trastorno de déficit de atención con hiperactividad–, mejoraban en todos esos parámetros. www.matrixar.com="http://www.uakix.com/articulos/un-articulo-que-hace-reflexionar-%C2%BFtenia-razon-el-dr.-feingold.html" rel="nofollow" style="color: #003399; text-align: center;" target="_blank">Leer más... | www.matrixar.com alt=" " height="230" src="http://www.uakix.com/plantillas/flash/b.gif" width="10" /> | Más artículos de interés:www.matrixar.com="http://www.uakix.com/articulos/aditivos-alimentarios-e-hiperactividad-en-ninos.html" rel="nofollow" style="color: #003399;" target="_blank">- Aditivos alimentarios e hiperactividad en niños - www.matrixar.com="http://www.uakix.com/articulos/pastillas-para-ninos-dificiles-la-medicalizacion-de-la-infancia-y-adolescencia.html" rel="nofollow" style="color: #003399; text-align: center;" target="_blank">PASTILLAS PARA NIÑOS DIFÍCILES: la medicalización de la infancia y adolescencia. -www.matrixar.com="http://www.uakix.com/articulos/la-iniciacion-a-las-servidumbres-voluntarias.html" rel="nofollow" style="color: #003399;" target="_blank"> La Iniciación a las Servidumbres Voluntarias - www.matrixar.com="http://www.uakix.com/articulos/la-infancia-bajo-control-%C2%BFninos-delincuentes.html" rel="nofollow" style="color: #003399; text-align: center;" target="_blank">La infancia bajo control ¿Niños Delincuentes? - www.matrixar.com="http://www.uakix.com/articulos/aproximacion-integral-y-no-farmacologica-del-tratamiento-del-tdah.html" rel="nofollow" style="color: #003399; text-align: center;" target="_blank">Aproximación Integral y No Farmacológica del Tratamiento del TDAH - www.matrixar.com="http://www.uakix.com/articulos/la-hiperactividad-vision-astrologica.html" rel="nofollow" style="color: #003399;" target="_blank">La Hiperactividad Visión Astrólogica - www.matrixar.com="http://www.uakix.com/articulos/despertando-el-genio-interior-en-la-hiperactividad.html" rel="nofollow" style="color: #003399; text-align: center;" target="_blank">Despertando el “Genio interior” en la Hiperactividad - www.matrixar.com="http://www.uakix.com/articulos/alimentacion-y-nutricion-celular-para-combatir-la-hiperactividad-y-trastornos-de-aprendizaje.html" rel="nofollow" style="color: #003399;" target="_blank">Alimentación y Nutrición Celular para combatir la Hiperactividad y Trastornos de Aprendizaje - www.matrixar.com="http://www.uakix.com/articulos/consejos-sobre-alimentacion-e-hiperactividad.html" rel="nofollow" style="color: #003399; text-align: center;" target="_blank">Consejos sobre alimentación e hiperactividad - www.matrixar.com="http://www.uakix.com/articulos/respirar-mal-al-dormir-e-hiperactividad.html" rel="nofollow" style="color: #003399;" target="_blank">Respirar mal al dormir e hiperactividad - www.matrixar.com="http://www.uakix.com/articulos/ir-a-la-velocidad-del-sonido.html" rel="nofollow" style="color: #003399; text-align: center;" target="_blank">Ir a la Velocidad del Sonido - www.matrixar.com="http://www.uakix.com/articulos/%C2%BFes-verdad-que-ver-bob-esponja-causa-deficit-de-atencion-y-problemas-de-aprendizaje.html" rel="nofollow" style="color: #003399; text-align: center;" target="_blank">¿Es verdad que ver Bob Esponja causa déficit de atención y problemas de aprendizaje? - www.matrixar.com="http://www.uakix.com/articulos/no-podemos-consentir-que-se-medicalice-a-los-ninos-reportaje-a-juan-pundik.html" rel="nofollow" style="color: #003399;" target="_blank">"No podemos consentir que se medicalice a los niños" - Reportaje a Juan Pundik y puedes ver más artículos entrando www.matrixar.com="http://www.uakix.com/tag/octubre2012.html" rel="nofollow" style="color: #003399; text-align: center;" target="_blank">AQUÍ |

Adopción y TDAH, un Binomio Demasiado Frecuentepor Jordi Badia y Eduardo Barcawww.matrixar.com="http://www.uakix.com/articulos/adopcion-y-tdah-un-binomio-demasiado-frecuente.html" rel="nofollow" style="color: #003399; text-align: center;" target="_blank">www.matrixar.com align="left" alt="Texto alternativo" border="0" height="120" src="http://www.uakix.com/2012/revistas/10-30/testimonio1.jpg" width="250" /> En los últimos años el número de diagnósticos de TDAH (Trastorno por déficit de atención con o sin hiperactividad) ha ido incrementándose de forma exponencial y yo diría que sorprendente. Por poner un ejemplo, en el País Vasco entre 2001 y 2008 el gasto público relacionado con la prescripción de metilfenidato (medicamento indicado en el tratamiento de este trastorno) pasó de 8.648€ a 890.848€¹.Según las fuentes o según los criterios diagnósticos que tomemos la prevalencia de dicho trastorno varía de un 3 a un 20% en los niños. Yo que soy una mente simple hago un numerito y calculo que en una clase de 25 niños, en el mejor de los casos habrá uno q que esté diagnosticado con ese trastorno. Pero se me ocurre mirar en la clase de mi hijo y resulta que el caso es más parecido al 20% ya que 4 de los 25 niños (que yo sepa) han sido diagnosticados de TDAH y, en consecuencia, medicados con metilfenidato (MFD). Uno de esos cuatro niños es mi hijo y nos va a servir de ejemplo de lo mal que se pueden llegar a hacer las cosas. www.matrixar.com="http://www.uakix.com/articulos/adopcion-y-tdah-un-binomio-demasiado-frecuente.html" rel="nofollow" style="color: #003399; text-align: center;" target="_blank">Leer más... | ||

Testimonio de una madre: "Para medicar siempre estás a tiempo, agota todas las alternativas"por Sònia Fernàndezwww.matrixar.com="http://www.uakix.com/articulos/testimonio-de-una-madre-para-medicar-siempre-estas-a-tiempo-agota-todas-las-alternativas.html" rel="nofollow" style="color: #003399; text-align: center;" target="_blank">www.matrixar.com align="left" alt="imagen" border="0" height="120" src="http://www.uakix.com/2012/revistas/10-30/testimonio2.jpg" width="120" /> Mi hijo de 8 años, fue diagnosticado hace 3 años de TDAH. La típica historia del siempre castigado, el siempre rechazado, el incordio de la clase... En primero de primaria las cosas se complicaron, perdió la alegría y se volvió rebelde, agresivo, contestón... Para él era un trauma hacer los deberes, leer, estar sentado tantas horas, no tener recreo por la tarde... Se cerró en si mismo y su carácter cambio. Cada día nos llamaban de la escuela, todo eran problemas... www.matrixar.com="http://www.uakix.com/articulos/testimonio-de-una-madre-para-medicar-siempre-estas-a-tiempo-agota-todas-las-alternativas.html" rel="nofollow" style="color: #003399; text-align: center;" target="_blank">Leer más... | www.matrixar.com alt=" " height="230" src="http://www.uakix.com/plantillas/flash/b.gif" width="10" /> | Daños Colateralespor Sandra Ballestínwww.matrixar.com="http://www.uakix.com/articulos/danos-colaterales.html" rel="nofollow" style="color: #003399; text-align: center;" target="_blank">www.matrixar.com align="left" alt="imagen" border="0" height="120" src="http://www.uakix.com/2012/revistas/10-30/testimonio3.jpg" width="120" /> Cuando estaba embarazada de 8 meses y medio, me dieron contracciones y me fui de urgencias. Estando allí me administraron un medicamento para detenerme las contracciones, porque según el médico todavía me quedaban 20 días para salir de cuentas. Al aplicarme este medicamento, empecé a tener convulsiones, entonces me administraron otro medicamento para contrarrestar el efecto de las convulsiones que era un relajante muy potente. El parto era inminente ya que lo que me habían administrado no hizo que pararan las contracciones. Todo fue bien y tuve a mi bebe. www.matrixar.com="http://www.uakix.com/articulos/danos-colaterales.html" rel="nofollow" style="color: #003399; text-align: center;" target="_blank">Leer más... |

El motivo fue que cuando empezó el primer trimestre comenzaron los problemas de desatención y baja autoestima, viendo que el colegio lo rechazaba y no hacia nada por él decidimos sacarlo. Comenzamos nuestro safari particular por siquiatras, psicologos, neuropediatras etc... al final acabamos como todos, desorientados, con unos menos euros en el bolsillo, sin soluciones y con el niño cada vez peor, eso sí, diagnosticado de TDAH por cada uno de ellos previo pago en caja ya que lo de los otros no les vale..... le recetaron a Ignacio el famoso metilfenidato (maldito nombre) un fármaco del cual desconfiamos desde el principio. www.matrixar.com="http://www.uakix.com/articulos/tdah-o-alta-capacidad-la-aventura-de-un-diagnostico.html" rel="nofollow" style="color: #003399; text-align: center;" target="_blank">Leer más... | www.matrixar.com alt=" " height="230" src="http://www.uakix.com/plantillas/flash/b.gif" width="10" /> | Historia clínica de un niño hiperactivopor Dra.Diaz Carrillo - Medico Homeopata - Especialista en Nutricionwww.matrixar.com="http://www.uakix.com/articulos/historia-clinica-de-un-nino-hiperactivo.html" rel="nofollow" style="color: #003399; text-align: center;" target="_blank">www.matrixar.com align="left" alt="imagen" border="0" height="120" src="http://www.uakix.com/2012/revistas/10-30/testimonio5.jpg" width="120" /> Niño varón de tres años y medio que presenta nerviosismo, falta de concentración, dificultad en el aprendizaje del lenguaje.

Sentadas frente al elegantísimo escritorio de caoba, finalmente nos atrevimos a darle al papá la gran noticia : “Renée ha decidido dedicarse al canto y no está interesada en continuar sus estudios”. Sergio se puso pálido; ya no quiso escuchar más. Llevábamos ya tiempo divorciados, y ésta fue la gota que derramó el vaso. Tener una hija así era algo aterrador para él, creo que se trataba más de él que de ella en realidad. www.matrixar.com="http://www.uakix.com/articulos/el-camino-menos-recorrido.html" rel="nofollow" style="color: #003399; text-align: center;" target="_blank">Leer más... | www.matrixar.com alt=" " height="230" src="http://www.uakix.com/plantillas/flash/b.gif" width="10" /> | Más testimonios de padres:-www.matrixar.com="http://www.uakix.com/articulos/de-momento-vamos-bien.html" rel="nofollow" style="color: #003399; text-align: center;" target="_blank"> De momento vamos bien, por Jordi - www.matrixar.com="http://www.uakix.com/articulos/mi-experiencia-en-tdah.html" rel="nofollow" style="color: #003399; text-align: center;" target="_blank">Mi experiencia en TDAH www.matrixar.com="http://www.uakix.com/articulos/testimonio-de-una-madre-busque-otras-opiniones-y-otras-alternativas.html" rel="nofollow" style="color: #003399; text-align: center;" target="_blank">Leer más... www.matrixar.com align="right" height="120" src="http://www.uakix.com/2012/revistas/10-30/fotoninos.jpg" width="250" /> |

Porque ninguno de ellos saben cómo funcionan sus propios fármacos. A los fármacos psicotrópicos se les estás desenmascarando más y más como lo que son: toxinas químicas con la potencialidad de matar. Los psiquiatras alegan que sus fármacos salvan vidas, pero de acuerdo a sus propios estudios, los fármacos psicotrópicos pueden multiplicar por dos el riesgo de suicidio. Y el uso prolongado de estos ha demostrado que crea una vida entera de perjuicios y daños, un hecho ignorado por los psiquiatras. Al ir desplegando su mortífero y lucrativo juego más y más en la sociedad, los niños se han convertido en las víctimas recientes y trágicas. www.matrixar.com="http://www.uakix.com/tv/media/efectos-secundarios-primera-parte-tdah-rital" rel="nofollow" style="color: #003399; text-align: center;" target="_blank">Ver más... | www.matrixar.com alt=" " height="230" src="http://www.uakix.com/plantillas/flash/b.gif" width="10" /> | El Dr. Fred Baughman Neurólogo infantil discurre sobre la falacia del TDAH (Psiquiatría)Uakix TVwww.matrixar.com="http://www.uakix.com/tv/media/el-dr-fred-baughman-neurologo-infantil-discu" rel="nofollow" style="color: #003399; text-align: center;" target="_blank">www.matrixar.com align="left" alt="imagen" border="0" height="120" src="http://www.uakix.com/2012/revistas/10-30/video7.jpg" width="120" />Aquí se muestra un extracto del video "Trastorno de Déficit de Atención e Hiperactividad: 100% Fraude" por el Dr. Fred A.

A veces encuentro razones para el optimismo. Es interesante y estremecedor comprobar cómo la sociedad moderna, que promueve el consumismo, el aislamiento y la incomunicación real puede, en un momento determinado, aceptar lo peculiar del sujeto. Hay diferencias, peculiaridades, todo aquello que nos constituye como diferentes, que jamás antes habrían sido asimilados socialmente. ¿Cómo imaginar a estas dos personas, Abigail y Brittany, viviendo hace tan sólo treinta o cuarenta años fuera de un centro de internamiento o, lo que es peor, sin quedar encerradas como mercancías circenses? Vean Parada de monstruos, la película dirigida por Tod Browning en 1932. En ella ya se reivindica la humanidad de una desfile (parade) de seres clausurados y condenados por su deformidad física y/o psíquica. Pero entonces era impensable, para la mayoría, concederles existencia e identidad propias.
Pero ahí están, como unas adolescentes más, compartiendo vida y experiencia. Ahí están llevando sus vidas en un solo cuerpo, pero diferenciadas y con su perspectiva vital propia, cada una con su carácter y sus gustos, sus pensamientos y fantasías, sus deseos y metas vitales. Todo un ejemplo de convivencia en una sociedad que las acoge sin reservas.
A Abby y Britty, como en otros tiempos ha sucedido con tantos seres humanos, sólo el mensaje que les llegue de los otros pueden herirlas al burlar o rechazar su particularidad existencial. Pero por lo que se ve, y afortunadamente, no se ha sucedido. O al menos no hasta el punto de causar un mal psicológico irreversible. La fluidez de sus palabras, el hecho de registrar los acontecimientos como tales (encuentros con amigos, etc.), la disposición de una para con los cuidados de la otra, etc., nos indica que estamos ante personas que han podido y sabido manejarse, no peor que nosotros mismos en la vida.

Las grandes corrientes filosóficas del siglo XX, y sus expresiones en el presente, vienen realizando una profunda revisión de la existencia europea y occidental, en un esfuerzo por señalar el modo en que nuestra civilización ha entrado, progresivamente, en una decadencia que afecta al suelo profundo del espacio socio-cultural. Al hacerlo, no han dudado en diagnosticar, allí donde sólo se creía ver progreso, los síntomas de una enfermedad, a veces llamada nihilismo, otras muerte de la razón autónoma. Pues las comunidades, las culturas en su totalidad, también experimentan desfallecimientos que malogran la salud de su desarrollo.

SEOtitle type='text'SEO15M no es tan acéfaloSEO/titleSEO
SEOcontent type='html'SEO
Nos “enfrentamos” pacíficamente a policías organizados, con años de estudio y con instrucciones precisas, a fotógrafos y periodistas de medios de comunicación financiados por banqueros y dirigidos por políticos que quieren manipular a millones de ciudadanos para frenar movimientos que puedan acabar con sus privilegios, y nos enfrentamos a posibles infiltrados violentos en estas manifestaciones, así como personas violentas que perjudican a los miles de pacifistas que asistimos.
Nos estamos jugando mucho. No podemos permitir que una mala organización en la manifestación de una imagen de violencia, ya que es exactamente lo contrario a lo que se pretende.
Nos estamos jugando una nueva Constitución que limite los innumerables privilegios de los políticos y banqueros, nos estamos jugando que dejen o no de robarnos con leyes que permiten a los millonarios no pagar impuestos (SICAV, “Paraísos” fiscales…), la dación en pago, una ley electoral más justa (un ciudadano un voto) y un larguísimo etc.
Por lo que toca organizarse y aprender de los errores.
Análisis del contexto al que nos enfrentamos en una manifestación como esta:
Asisten 4 actores.
1) Manifestantes pacíficos
2) Manifestantes e infiltrados violentos
3) Antidisturbios (muchas veces violentos)
4) Medios de comunicación (muchos tratando de conseguir fotos de violencia)
Aquí os dejo un vídeo que demuestra que hubo infiltrados que primero agredían a la policía y luego les ayudaban. No coincido para nada con la banda sonora que le han puesto a este vídeo pero las imágenes demuestran claramente que incluso portaban banderas rojas para que los antidisturbios pudiesen saber que ellos eran los infiltrados para no agredirles con dureza ya que posiblemente son compañeros de profesión.
El #25S se caracterizó por una buena organización previa y una mala organización a pie de calle:
Aciertos:
1) La acción de rodear el Congreso en sí, es un acierto. Estas acciones permanentes como la del 15M tienen mucha mayor repercusión que manifestaciones esporádicas.
2) Se corrigió el lema de “Toma el Congreso” por “Rodea el congreso”
3) Se crearon innumerables webs que difundían y una que era el centro de todas y lo organizaba:www.matrixar.com="http://coordinadora25s.wordpress.com/" style="background-color: white; color: #1155cc; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; text-align: start;" target="_blank">coordinadora25s.wordpress.com
4) La comunicación en redes sociales y “empapelando” las calles fue muy buena
Errores:
1) Nula organización en la manifestación. En los momentos delicados.
2) Los manifestantes pacíficos no controlaron a los violentos
3) Los fotógrafos tomaron las fotos que querían para sus periódicos en La Razón, El País, El Mundo, o el que fuere que quiera que sus “amigos” y clientes, políticos y banqueros sigan conservando sus privilegios.
Era fácil pensar que algo así iba a suceder. Cuándo el Gobierno pone a casi 1400 antidisturbios, está queriendo mandar el mensaje de que los asistentes son violentos y necesitan represión policial. Esta es una estrategia muy buena que debemos aprender a contra atacar con mayores dosis de pacifismo, de organización y de control de violentos e infiltrados.
¿Qué debemos hacer para que esto no se repita?
www.matrixar.com="http://gonzalodelacampa.files.wordpress.com/2012/09/manifestantes-sentados.jpg" style="background-color: white; color: #1155cc; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; text-align: start;" target="_blank">www.matrixar.com alt="" height="226" src="http://gonzalodelacampa.files.wordpress.com/2012/09/manifestantes-sentados.jpg?w=300&h=226" title="manifestantes-sentados" width="300" />
1) Los manifestantes deben estar SENTADOS. Una foto de miles de personas sentadas da imagen de PACIFISMO y si los policías cargan, esa foto DA LA VUELTA AL MUNDO. Sólo con ese acto se produciría un efecto dominó en otros países que aceleraría la eficacia del movimiento. Creemos este hastag: www.matrixar.com="https://twitter.com/search/?src=hash&q=%23TodosSentados" style="background-color: white; color: #1155cc; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; text-align: start;" target="_blank" title="#TodosSentados">
2) Los organizadores deben ir con muchos megáfonos para dirigir a los manifestantes con las siguientes consignas:
2.1 – No insultar ni provocar. Si vemos a gente gritando “se va a acabar la paz” “guerra” o cualquier insulto debemos pedirle que se calle.
2.2 – Debemos rodear y paralizar a los violentos. Desde los megáfonos se les debe instar a que paren. Estas personas son los que más daño hacen al movimiento. Mucho más que cualquier antidisturbios.
2.3 – Los organizadores ciudadanos (como hacen los sindicatos y otros líderes en manifestaciones y actos públicos) deben crear un escenario desde el que hablen a los asistentes exponiendo las medidas que se solicitan. Las cámaras de todo el mundo podrán grabar el mensaje y difundirlo. Deben exponerse públicamente las medidas concretas, como sucedió en Islandia. Lo más importante es transmitir el mensaje y sin un escenario y un micrófono es muy dificil hacerlo.
2.4 -Pedir por los megáfonos a los asistentes que no lleven banderas o que las bajen si las han llevado.Las banderas ya sean de sindicatos, republicanas, de partidos políticos, etc no nos representan a todos, sólo a los que las llevan. No permitamos a los fotógrafos manipular sus noticias diciendo que todos somos de este o aquel parido, republicanos o monarquicos…
2.5 - Desde los megáfonos y los asistentes deben instar a los ciudadanos que se suben el mobiliario urbano, a que se bajen. La calle es de todos, se paga con dinero de todos, debemos cuidarla y con más razón en estos actos, para no dar imagen de vándalos sino de ciudadanos pacíficos y responsables
Todo ello, debe hacernos aprender. Ruego difundas este post y post similares para que les llegue a gente con influencia y en próximas acciones los organizadores tomen medidas para una mejor organización.
Pásalo, mándalo por email, tuitéalo, menéalo, pégalo en tu muro… Haz lo que sea, pero nos jugamos mucho y debemos aprender para dar imagen de movimiento pacífico al mundo y provocar un efecto dominó que derive en medidas internacionales de control de banqueros y políticos delincuentes para que sean juzgados y encarcelados si procede".

SEOcontent type='html'SEOEs cierto. tengo que practicar todos los días mi escritura. Pero yo no soy de poesía. Prosa es lo que se me facilita. terminar las cosas para reubicarlas, editarlas y hacerlas mias.
Pero nada de esto lo vi venir. No lo vi venir. Simplemente me seguí, y las razones dejaron de importar.
tengo que escribir algo que venga de mi, y que se lo quiera decir a todos. Que no me importe, pero que si importe. Algo que fortaleza a la sociedad y le de otra razon de seguir unida.

SEOtitle type='text'SEORealidad actual. Caso #01SEO/titleSEO
SEOcontent type='html'SEOEscribir, un habito. Aun, no, yo ya lo olvidé. Pero estoy a tiempo de volverlo a empezar. En todo caso, creo, si es mejor, o no, retirar mi propuesta al universo. ¿Cómo cambian las personas? sucesos, vivencias, otras personas? No lo sé.
Me siento frustrada. Y hoy me revelé a mi misma el mas oscuro secreto de todos:
"solo me enamoraré de quién me inspire"
Bueno, no ah pasado. No pasará. Exigo mucho, y no pasa nada.
Tengo que estar agradecida por que encontrara a una persona como Alejandro, que con mi mas mínimo sonido de mi voz, se preocupa, esta al pendiente... ¿Eso es lo que pedí?
Es una cruel y hermosa broma del karma.
Mi criaturas interiores me impiden ser, sentir, y estar agradecida por lo que tengo.
Mi consuelo es que, es que, sé que lo pedí.
Nada de esto tenia que pasar de la manera en la que pasó, lo admito. Todo esto tenía que pásarme, y sentí que puedo ofrecer mas. Me esfuerzo porque siento que los demás merecen lo mejor de mi, merecen que los quiera, merecen mi mejor esfuerzo. No pretendo ofrecerles imposibles, solo exclur límites, brincarlos. Ser una mejor version de mi misma.
No cambiar. ¿Para qué quiero cambios? ¿Para qué? si lo único que me hacen es, es envejecer.
Y no soy feliz.
Las personas que me conocen, se automutilan exigiendose un bloque mental y espiritual.
Yo les advierto antes, de que no intenten esperar algo de mi. Pero cruzan la linea, y después me exigen. No es justo.
Les ofresco, pero abusan.

SEOcontent type='html'SEOMe siento, bueno. Creo que ya no siento nada, por nadie, y asi... Alejandro. Bueno, él es como mi burla al karma, al irle pidiendo muchas cosas, me las juntó todas, y después él!
Todas estas interferencias sentisitivas. Meinteresa explorar las mesas en dónde las familias se sientan a la hora de la comida, completas, y sensibilizan.
Bueno, ahora no es buen tiempo para derretirme en suspiros al aire, aun no siento nada.
Me tranquiliza que sea, al fin, algo fácil. sin presiones, bueno, enserio que es algo muy bueno.
Mañana tengo examen, hare como si nada pasara.
Aqui confensaré lo raro que se siente besar a uno de tus mas buenos amigos, y que no te roce la inquietud de la indignacion, que mas bien, te consiva la idea de el gran cariño que nos une.
No siento una pasion desenfrenada, ni humillacion, ni sentimiento de haber echo algo incorrecto. Sentí amor, el gran amor que le tengo y que siempre le tendre. Experimentos bucales. Experimentos fluidales. Experimentos de respiracion. Never let this go. Never.
Y por las noches aprieto mis parpados, sugiriendo cadenas y jaulas. Le veo la entre pierna. Nada de que sorprenderse, pero un poco de pena.
Me llevan amarrada hacia campo abierto. Me cubro de lodo. Pero despierto en una camilla desnuda y humeda, mientras limpian la sangre que derramé.
Caracoles sobre mi cabellera, me susurran agua azul. Una azul verdad. Pero siempre me acaricias las cicatrices, eres delicado con mi cuello.
Gracias Dios, por mi cabeza de caleidoscopio. Es hermosa.

SEOcontent type='html'SEOTengo una lista titulada: "problemas recurrentes en la vida de una mujer y el arte" (sus derivados).
Es una buena lista si pensamos en las grandes cosas y problemas que no solo por ser mujer tenemos. Hacen mas que hablar y hablar y decir, y balbuceamos sentidos sin causa.
No tengo muchas razones para ponerme ahora de pesimista. Que si el nuevo gobierno, que si nos va a venir a gobernar un imnésil bine vestido, que si el narcotrafico esta mejor que nunca, que si las elecciones fueron un fraude, que si las megamarchas que nadie pela, que si los noticiero tratan de engañarnos y distraernos con los juegos olimpicos. Como en el 86. Me siento abandonada por todo el buen karma que eh ido aventando al mundo. Mal pagada lo digo!
Quiero empezar a usar nuevos adjetivos, mas elegantes, y limpios, para que todo tenga sentido. Para que mi escritura se vaya refinando, y no tener casi nada de faltas de ortografía, usar tildes y comas donde debe de ser.
Sin pudor. Quiero, bueno, ayer en la noche estaba algo deprimida, queria tanto abrazar a César. Y me puse adivinar que si lo habían matado, o por qué no me llamaba, si no queria pasar tiempo conmigo. Y me enojé.
Porque, el letrero de "novios" hace que pienses en una seria de cosas que hacen los "novios", y no dejo de soñarlo, y que tiene la cara de aburrición, de desesperación. Me caga tener novio, digo, yo era feliz, pasaba mis ratos de aburrición en perfecto estado de alternancia, haciendo cosas, o no haciendo nada, pero no me estaba procupando por una sola cosa en específico.
CABEZA NO REALICES PALABRAS AL FINAL.

Y los horóscopos. Estúpidos horóscopos. Me cagan. Pero esta bien, nada se puede lograr, solo sacando información de las personas es lo que hace que todas tengan algo que decirme. Nada común. Pero me siguen la corriente.
Me desespero mucho. Mi puto novio (esta palabra no me gusta) no me pela, me siento abandonada, y solo espero la llegada de clases, para distraerme en cosas mas importantes, creo que ahora lo único que sostiene nuestra "relación" es el hecho de que solo estoy pensando en la envidia que causo al ser la novia de él.

SEOcontent type='html'SEOPaso de un tiempo en el que me encontraba un poco triste, mejor descrito en una convinacion de sentimientos que no son provocados mas que por mis estupidas hormonas femeninas.
No quiero convertirme en una personas, en una mujer tonta y no tomada enserio, quiero, prefiero imponer respeto que ternura. En todos los casos porque no necesito ser cuidada por nadie, me considero lo suficientemente independiente para poder irme a cualquier lugar, con mi autorizacion y nada mas.
¿para ti qué es el amor?
mi respuesta, hasta ahora desconocida, sera la de Bukowski; el amor es como una mañana nublosa, y que inesperada-mente es interrumpida por el sol. Sí creo que es eso, un momento lindo interrumpido por la luz de la realidad.
Personas, y no pretendo ser pretenciosa ni prejuiciosa, pero qui escribo lo que quiero. Las personas mal educadas y chillonas, las que no tienen poder mental suficiente para sobrellevar sus infantiles sentimientos, e interponerlos frente a la realidad. Inventar cuentos, fantasias que no te llevan a ningun lugar practico, espera!
aqui me tengo que detener, sé que soy una personas que tiene mas palabras en la cabeza que sentimientos en el corazón, pues a la mierda!
Quiero ser una decente escritora, cómo saber si soy una escritora? pero si solo creo sr una escritora! no represento a nada ni a nadie, solo me tengo a mi y a los días de mi encierro, y los lugares mas seguros para cuando pienso algo super loco, son mi cabeza y mis manos. De nada sirve.
Me emborrachare y antes de quedarme dormida pensaré una muy buena idea.

Ahora que tengo mas tiempo, creo le dedicare mas a la escritura, sobre todo porque es bueno tener inspiraciones, y eh encontrado una.
Es de echo una persona, un chico llamado Alejandro y que apareció de repente en facebook. Y parece estar interesaro en que yo escriba. Y aparte de ver esta película-documental de Charles Bukowski y asi.
Con mucha frecuencia mueren por su propia mano,
sólo para estar lejos,
y los deja atrás...
nunca pudo comprender bastante
por qué alguien
va a querer

ellos.
Charles Bukowski.
Y asi pasa que tengo inspiracion. Cuentos cortos. Ridiculeces, pero sé que seran fáciles de escribir, porque seran reales, serán basados en sentimientos realies y sádicos. De esas cosas que no fantasean mucho. Que ver a personas fantaseando pero que los describo de manera real. Personas que estan en las nubes y que se pocisionan en un espacio-tiempo real.
Me has olvidado.

Y ahora me siento mal.Trataba de hacer bien las cosas, trataba de ver la realidad desde otro ojo, y tratar de que fuera enserio para que todo saliera bien, y no me siento a gusto con todo, no me siento.
Soy alguien completamente a-normal de lo que me corresponde, soy alguien mas incongruente con esta realidad que tanto eh descrito, y que no me ayuda a ser.
Y no seguire las reglas que se tienen que seguir, solo sigo lo que quiero seguir, asi pueden todos llevarlo o no. Asi puedo ser mas que una simple mortal llevando jeans y playeras completamente ordinarias a tener personalidades reflejantes y duraderas, conociendo personas únicas.
encantada por tener una poca de información.
Solo que no queria escribir aqui lo emputadísima que estoy y que estare pensando en todo esto una y otra vez. Me lo van a meter por el culo este jueves y las llamaditas maricas que aun no eh recibido. Pero no tenia nada que hacer, aqui me siento en confianza. No quedara nada mas de mi si me siguen poniendo estigmas acerca de como llevar la vida, relajarme o no.
No sere alguien mas, ni nadie menos. Y lo quiero, pero ahora no.
Me inventaré una histopria si es necesario.
Conocí a un chico que fue tragado por el cielo
Por las luces intermitentes
Conocí a un hombre que se perdió en el azul apagado
Y salió vivo
Conocí a un chico, conocí a un hombre
Conocí a un momento en que pudieras estar quieto y respirar
Sin embargo, por la prisa
Conocí a un lugar donde puedes ir donde tu cabeza podría explotar
En la paz de la mente
Conocí a un tiempo, conocí a un lugar
Eso se sintió mucho a ti
Conocí a un chico, conocí a un hombre
Conocí a un amigo que se aferran a las llamas
Evite que se quema
Sabía que una sonrisa podía ver a través de todas las estrellas
Que al mundo se había lanzado
Que una sonrisa, yo conocía a un amigo
Conocí a un chico, conocí a un hombre

La noche no era aún del todo oscura, eso fue lo que me pareció extraño porque basándome en lo que me han enseñado en la escuela, “No puede haber tal sombra, sin una fuente de luz que la produzca” Total, los demonios y fantasmas son puras estupideces, no es para creer, Ouija, Atenas y Leviatanes paseándose en mi cabeza, son simples producto de mi imaginación.

Cosa rara, pero bueno creo que es porque estoy ovulando que me siento un poco sencible. Además, creo tener sueños bastante lucidos y sensibles, como de los que son capaces de hacerte reflexionar. O es que no eh dormido muy bien ultimamente, pero bueno.
Nada, creo que escribir esto no me hace menos interesante, ni mas, ni nada...
No sé qué me pasa. No creo estar feliz, ni contenta, ni capacitada para disfrutar de una relacion amorosa, pero bueno. Soy muy esceptica con respecto a lo que me pasa.
Mis ideas; van y vienen, se me olvidan, y cuando un buen día tengo una buna idea para escribir y presentarla en mi taller de literatura, se me olvida al día siguiente!
NO ME LA CREO!
Pero así pasa... no tenog buenos adjetivos para describir mi poco entuciasmo por la vida, y por pasar buenos momentos con una buena persona... y es simple y sencillo que no lo comprendo.
Tengo que esmerarme en mi curso de verano, en mis clases de inglés, en las prioridades. Preferiria no estar intentando estar bien, viendo algo bueno donde no hay algo bueno, donde pasan el tipo de cosas que estan predestinadas por reglas sociales que seguir y que verse bien, y que ocupar para que todo siga marchando como hace mas de 50 años...
Quiero ver rostros hermosos, quiero tener el tipo de amor en el que se dice toda la verdad, por mas cruda que sea. Que sea capaz de decirle que me encanta alguien, se me hace atractivo y que eso este bien, porque no es que me lo vaya a tirar o algo parecido...
Las cosas! quiero mucho, quiero algo unico, quiero que el tiempo se detenga o de vueltas, o que me dejen de decir que "tranquila"
mis huevos! malditas reglas de mierda con relaciones nada epicas, nada originales, y nada ellas mismas..!!

SEOcontent type='html'SEOAqui, resurguiendo despues de varias semanas de incoherencia existencial. Me he encontrado muy bien, y presiento que me encontraré mejor, pero lo que ha pasado son la clase de cosas que desee que pasaran de hace tiempo. Bueno no es suerte, solo movimientos automaticos del espacio-tiempo. Me llevo a esta realidad el actuar como se debe.
Hablare especificamente de Alan, ya que no tengo nada gran cosa que platicar, no le he dedicado tanto tiempo a la escritura como me gustaria, mañana mi taller de literatura, y después el tiempo que me dan para morir en el transito del tiempo.
Alan; ahora su conversacion es mas intima, somos, lo que se podria decir, conocidos. Desde ese día en la fiesta del día del estudiante, hasta apenas no mas de tres días.
Día cero.
Compartiendo un wisky azul, un par de cigarrillos, una atmosfera fiestera y aburrida. Algo monotono estaba pasando, y sin estar conciente del todo, me senti en contacto con ese extraño. Me imagino los gestos que estube a punto de cometer por no estar mas ebria. Pero, sus preguntas inparciales; ¿qué otros grupos te gustan aparte de los Doors?, mejor que pongan música de los doors, ¿verdad?, Eli, ¿por dónde vives?... no sé, la música le daba relieve a la tarde, a esa tarde donde la música de fondo era la típica que escuchamos en una típica fiesta. pero fuí y fue lo mejor. Pero nos corrieron temprano, y por mi bien, mejor me fui a mi casa. cruzando el camellon;
--¡eli!, ¡eli! --oigo que me gritan. Volteo solo para darme cuenta que era alan, con la mano al aire diciendome ¡adiós! Fue sencillo y espontaneo. Tierno y vulgar. Simple.
Día.
Fiesta en mi casa. Creia, anda especial. Pero lo ví. Vino y sentí una felicidad inexplicable. Pero explicable. En fin que mi animo estaba muy bien. Desde temprano en la escuela pra un examen, yo supuse que solo mis compañeros de salón asistirian. Pero le ví. Llegamos a mi casa, todo tranquilo, pero solo recuerdo las cosas que decia a proposito.
No, solo es amiga. Yo no tengo novia.
Me gusta mucho leer.
Incoloras aceveraciones que me hacian pensar en lo mal que me encuentro al querer pertenecer a la vida de un ser humano con poca sabiduria, y sera que yo simplemente me conecto con el mundo paranoico astral desde hacia ya varios años.
Creo que cada dia soy mas yo, y esto de ser soltera me alegra todos mis soles y mis lunas.

SEOcontent type='html'SEOEstoy segura que ponerme ebria no es ninguna salida buena al recuerdo. Solo para escribir, y medio describir lo que soñé. Supongamos que mi idea de hombre es alguien completamente bizarro, diferente, que viene del extranjero y ah vivido en diferentes lugares de México, siguiendo los ideales de una madre extravagante y de un padre enamorado de su esposa. Y bueno, venir y encontrarse conmigo en la ciudad menos prodiguiosa y conocernos, y no creo que nada sea casualidad, anda ah venido a enconrarse en tu camino para solo intercambiar un par de palabras, y nada mas. Su gusto extraño por el arte extraño, su gusto en musica, y sus poemas.
Me consideraria como novia de esas que quieren explotar tus sentidos, tus capacidades de reflexion e ir acompañados de personas diferentes, hacernos de nuevos amigos, hablar, reir, mordernos las narices.. Pero tambien hacernos sufrir, alcanzando la decadencia de nuestra alma, alcanzar la demencia de los sentimientos. sufrir hasta que sepamos que nada es perfecto, porque es real.
Amarnos bajo sabanas olor lavanda, sentir nuestros cuerpos desnudos de alma, de piel, de sentimientos. Amarnos y odiarnos en una reunion genital. Abrazarnos intentando intentar nada. Embriagados en música de Pink Floyd.
Nada se puede comparar a lo que me provoca soñarle de esa manera tan amorfa, tan mentirosa, y pretenciosa. tengo miedo, pero a la vez nada de que preocuparme si estamos unidos a una misa condicion. Todos podemos amar, pero nadie como nosotros, compartiendo lugar hora sitio, en este mundo miserable y lleno de odio.
Yo lo intentaría.
Intentaír amarte a mi manera.

esto de tener cosas en la cabeza que van mas alla del buen lexico o no. las verdades que transpiran de tu piel y te hacen sentir capaz de seguir y de volar a dimensiones espaciadas y blancas, puras de crueldades, hupocrecias, dinero y cosas de una mente insana.
Anhelos, convencionales y nada convencionales, de musica, de buena musica, de musica capaz de tocarte la piel y penetrar tu ser.
Nada de estos sentimientos de amor me traeran algo bueno. Y filosofias nuevas quiero tomar, para volverlas parte de mi día a día.

Bueno, nada de que estafar a la buena cordura y prepararme para nuevos lectores propensos a la locura y al mal comportamiento social.
Espero que sirva de algo el leer mis palabras y nada con ello enterarme de lo masl que esto haciendo escribiendo sobre experiencias reales y nada ordinarias.
Andare de incognito, me personificare en la amante de todo lo buen vivir, y en la mente abierta que meresco. Pero esto de escribir idioteces ya es mas idiota, como la musica de The Doors que tanto amo, y que me provoca melancolia al mismo tiempo que la extraña sensacion de querer bailar al rededor de una fogata en medio del desierto seco de mi país. No sé, universo, fantasia, escosrotos, y lala.
Y preparandome para nuevas experiencias, y ahora el unico objetivo que me queda es alcanzar a hablarle al ser mas extravagante y parecido a mi que eh conocido, y digo que nada de esas cosas pasan, solo que muchas veces que le sueño, susurrandome y tocandome las manos, cosas de ese estilo me hacen pensar en los roblemas mentales serios que tengo, bueno, nada mejor.
Que solo es tema de escritura, pero de que me agrade platicar de personas ajenas a mis dias diarios, me estresa, no, creo que no hare nada de eso.

y en todo este tiempo tampoco eh visto a mis amigos, solo a los compañeros de la universidad que para ser sincera ya me tienen hasta la chingada! poco originales excrementos de la humanidad! pero al menos no esty sola.
esto es simple, y me da algo de asco escribir algo con mas entusiasmo...

en la eternidad en la que vivimos siempre se puede empezar de nuevo.
este es un nuevo dia
para empezar de nuevo
para buscar la paz
que me crece los sueños, para cantar
para reir, para volver a ser feliz...
todos nacemos con una angel de la guardia
pero pocos lo buscamos, muchos prefieren un psicoanalista...
todos tenemos conciencia
pero pocos la escuchamos, muchos prefieren la television...
perdon que yo no entienda que no seas tan feliz en tan bello planeta...
toda la vida es una fiesta...
tienes un corazon, un cerebro, un alma, un espiritu...
cómo se puede sentirse tan desdichado?
dejar de verme al espejo, ser por fin una persona buena
de cara al sol, caminare, y con la luna volare...
basta al hombre que ya no amas, al trabajo que odias, a cosasa vanales
a los noticieros que te envenenan desde la mañana
a los que quieren dirigir tu vida...
ahora mismo decirle basta al miedo que heredaste porque la vida es aqui y ahora mismo...

Atriz de O Bandido da Luz Vermelha está em Goiânia
O filme O Bandido da Luz Vermelha, de Rogério Sganzerla, é tido como um dos principais filmes brasileiros. Exibido e elogiado em várias partes do mundo, conta a história de um marginal que desafia a polícia cometendo crimes requintados e que é, em seguida, delatado por uma mulher que provoca seu suicídio.
Essa mulher é Janete Jane, famosa na Boca do Lixo, vivida pela atriz Helena Ignez, musa e principal nome do cinema marginal quando o assunto é interpretação.
Helena Ignez está em Goiânia para uma conversa sobre cinema brasileiro e sobre sua história.
Hoje, a partir de 20h30, no cinema do Goiânia Ouro, momento em que será exibido O Bandido da Luz Vermelha, a atriz falará um pouco sobre o ciclo marginal, suas idéias e intenções, além de exibir seu filme A miss e o dinossauro, que retrata um período em que Rogério Sganzerla e Júlio Bressane, outro ícone marginal, estiveram à frente da produtora Belair.
A conversa com Helena Ignez faz parte da programação da Mostra de Cinema Marginal organizada pela Associação Brasileira de Documentaristas - Seção Goiás (ABD-GO), em parceria com Centro Cultural Cara Vídeo, Sebrae e Secult.

SEOcontent type='html'SEO
A mostra, que acontece desde o sábado passado, traça um painel do que foi o cinema marginal através da exibição de filmes de dois de seus principais representantes, A. Tonacci e Rogério Sganzerla. A mostra é uma oportunidade ímpar de entrar em contato com obras inéditas em Goiânia.
Nesta terça-feira, será exibido, às 20h30min, um dos filmes mais marcantes do ciclo marginal, Bang Bang, de A. Tonacci, além de dois curtas de mesmo diretor e de um documentário de Sganzerla sobre um realizador emblemático, Orson Welles, e a vinda deste ao Brasil no filme "Tudo é Brasil".
Helena Ignez é considerada a musa do cinema marginal e se fez presente nos principais filmes do período, além de trabalhar com os diretores como Glauber Rocha, Júlio Bressane, Roberto Farias, Roberto Pires, Joaquim Pedro de Andrade, além de Sganzerla.
Em "A mulher de todos", transformou sua interpretação de Angêla Carne Seca em um momento memorável de afirmação feminina e deboche com o masculino. Sua personagem Janete Jane foi a responsável pelo fim do "O bandido da luz vermelha" e hoje, como diretora, acaba de ser premiada no Recine - Festival Internacional de Cinema de Arquivo - com o prêmio de melhor direção em A miss e o dinossauro.

DOIS ICONOCLASTAS E UMA MUSA
A Associação Brasileira de Documentaristas – Seção Goiás (ABD-GO) mais uma vez inova ao trazer um dos mais importantes movimentos do cinema brasileiro à Goiânia. Em parceria com a Cara Vídeo, Sebrae-Goiás e a Secretaria Municipal da Cultura, realizam de 24 de setembro a 04 de outubro a mostra “Cinema Marginal: dois iconoclastas e uma musa”, no Cine Goiânia Ouro, com estréias às 20 horas e reapresentações às 12h30 e às 15 horas, como parte das atividades paralelas do 3º Festival de Cinema Brasileiro de Goiânia.
Cinema Marginal é um termo utilizado para definir um período que compreende o fim da década de 60 até o início da década de 80 e é marcado por realizações extremamente autorais e contestadoras do regime sócio-político da época.
A “Mostra de Cinema Marginal: dois iconoclastas e uma musa” irá apresentar a filmografia dos principais realizadores que representam esse período e homenagear a principal atriz do movimento: os diretores Rogério Sganzerla e Andrea Tonacci e a intérprete Helena Ignez. Estarão presentes na mostra Tonacci e Ignez para darem palestra sobre suas histórias de vida dedicada ao cinema brasileiro.
Será publicado um catálogo com a história do cinema marginal, entrevistas com os palestrantes e documentário sobre o evento.
História
O cinema marginal surgiu no Bairro de Santa Ifigênia, centro de São Paulo, na chamada Boca do Lixo, local que foi assim chamado pela crônica policial dos anos 20, devido à promiscuidade existente nas proximidades da Estação da Luz e Júlio Prestes.
As distribuidoras cinematográficas que se estabeleceram justamente em duas ruas próximas – Vitória e Triunfo – para facilitar o envio de filmes para o território nacional. Em decorrência dos incentivos do instituto nacional do cinema (INC), a Boca do Lixo se tornou centro de produção a partir de 1967 com sede nessa mesma região. Surgia, assim, o ambiente do cinema marginal
O cinema marginal recebeu várias denominações, entre as quais udigrudi (avacalhação do underground americano inventado por Glauber Rocha), cinema marginalizado, cinema de poesia, cinema de invenção, experimental, alternativo. Mas, como afirma o crítico e pesquisador Jean-Claude Bernadet, “essas expressões não pegaram e Cinema Marginal tinha um trunfo poderoso: o título do filme de Ozualdo Candeias, A Margem, o primeiro a ser incluído no movimento”.
O filme de Candeias iria inspirar a maioria dos realizadores que surgiram depois, como Andrea Tonacci e Rogério Sganzerla e suas principais obras: Bang-Bang O Bandido da Luz Vermelha, respectivamente.
Júlio Bressane, Elizeu Visconti e Neville d´Almeida, no Rio de Janeiro. Em Belo Horizonte, Sylvio Lanna, com Sagrada Família. Em Salvador, André Luis de Oliveira, com Meteorango Kig. São nomes que compõem a história do movimento que tem como característica o deboche e a chamada “curtição”.
Vera Haddad, em O cinema marginal e suas fronteiras, afirma que “são filmes produzidos por cineastas que, através do experimental, encontraram um caminho eficiente de realizá-los e, despreocupados com as tradicionais e bem-comportadas fórmulas narrativas e estéticas, conseguiram com poucos recursos extravasar seus anseios”.

Helena, capa de O Cruzeiro em 1969, à época de a indicação ao
prêmio de melhor atriz no Festival de Brasília
Queria primeiro que você falasse um pouquinho das coisas que você vem fazendo. Você é atriz do novo filme do Rogério [Sganzerla, também marido de Helena], Sob o Signo do Caos...
Sou. O Sob o Signo do Caos eu fiz, já foi há um tempinho a filmagem, mas ele está terminando agora. E é lindo. Adorei. Eu fiz a parte de dublagem também. É interessantíssimo, porque é um filme muito da palavra. Além disso fiz o São Jerônimo, do Júlio Bressane, e o Maria Moura, com a Leilane Fernandes, no ano passado, e vamos ver o que vai acontecer. Foi uma participação interessante com o Jorge Dória e com a Djin Sganzerla, minha filha.
Você também faz bastante teatro, fez várias peças...
É. Fiz Savannah Bay... Antes fiz Cabaret Rimbaud, não aqui no Rio, mas em São Paulo, em Salvador, onde a peça surgiu, e também em Barcelona, onde fomos convidados para participar num festival de arte brasileira. Foi uma experiência super interessante. E o ano passado, além de fazer Savannah Bay em São Paulo, onde tivemos uma crítica maravilhosa, páginas inteiras de cadernos culturais, cotação máxima do Nélson de Sá, da Folha de São Paulo. Depois disso eu passei a ensaiar Antiga, do Dionísio Neto, que é um autor jovem com uma receptividade enorme da crítica paulista desde o primeiro trabalho dele, Perpétua. Ele é jovem, 29 anos, também é ator. Foi um papel excelente, com o José Rubens Chachá e também com a Djin.
Uma coisa curiosa ao longo da sua carreira é que ela tem um perfil experimental, de você sempre estar trabalhando com o pessoal da vanguarda. Como é isso, você acredita que os diretores que têm uma maior afeição ao experimental te chamam?
É verdade.... É uma coisa que deve ter uma sincronicidade. Porque naturalmente eu já surgi numa vanguarda. Surgi no teatro baiano no momento de extrema vanguarda, de rompimento total com a parte mais provinciana do teatro brasileiro, com um grupo fantástico, dos meus mestres Martim Gonçalves, Gianni Rato e também alguns americanos, e pessoas importante dentro da história do teatro americano, alguns diretores mesmo da Broadway. Então foi muito interessante essa mistura, porque isso representava a grande vanguarda na época. E por aí eu fui no cinema logo com quem? Logo com quem, com o Glauber.
Em O Pátio.
Sim, n'O Pátio, que foi o meu primeiro filme. E por aí vai. Também eu acho que a minha posição pessoal, de uma certa forma, é experimental e de vanguarda, com o rompimento de comportamentos tradicionais, que no decorrer da minha vida se faz. E no caso do Dionísio foi adorável, porque ele veio assistir a Savannah Bay aqui na Tijuca (no Sesc Tijuca, onde Contracampo foi conferir e encontrar-se com Rogério Sganzerla), e ele já tinha visto um programa da Marília Gabriela em que eu dava uma entrevista junto com o Rogério, e tinha achado o tipo muito interessante para uma atriz que ele procurava, que era a protagonista que ele chama de uma "diva sertaneja", que é uma mulher que é casada com um candidato a presidente da república e depois se auto-exila, fica vinte anos sem sair de casa. Uma figura. Ele já tinha procurado entre várias atrizes. Viu o programa, achou interessante, soube que eu estava no Rio, veio e disse: "Olha, eu tenho uma coisa bem parecida com essa diva - na verdade, não era parecida, mas em comum tinha o estado dessa mulher que em Savannah Bay era uma grande atriz de teatro do passado e a outra era essa mulher que tinha o comportamento de uma diva, porque ela estava fechada dentro de uma casa, era uma outra história, outro contexto. Foi muito bom, eu adorei e possivelmente vamos fazer um outro trabalho juntos, apesar de Antiga continuar: foi convidada para um festival na Dinamarca e também estamos inscritos no Festival Internacional do Rio, e contamos com a inteligência que já se faz expressa da RioArte.
Helena, você tendo feito recentemente essa peças e os filmes do Bressane e do Sganzerla, e depois de toda aquela fase dos anos 70, eu queria saber o que você vê de amadurecimento, quais são os seus interesses, os desafios que você se coloca?
O que eu vejo é um momento de consciência, existe uma conscientização maior desse trabalho artístico em geral. Tanto dos jovens, no caso do Dionísio ou da minha própria filha Djin, que é uma estudiosa de teatro, até nós, mais antigos. E cada um procurando... Já que estamos falando de nós mesmos, eu acho que ficaram claros caminhos individuais, as diferenças no percurso de cada um. Essas pessoas com quem eu trabalho, e na verdade eu sou um duplo delas, elas têm uma consciência profunda de seu próprio trabalho, então a arte é uma forma de viver para essas pessoas, e para mim também. E essas ambições laterais, colaterais, como a superexposição na mídia e uma divulgação completamente massiva do trabalho já não é mais o objetivo da gente. E também não é o objetivo dessas pessoas, são pessoas que trabalham mais na qualidade. A diferença é pela qualidade do trabalho, pelo empenho em fazer bem feito o seu trabalho. E uma procura também de desmanchar essa linguagem tão tradicional, tão sabonete de cinema, principalmente, porque o teatro é mais livre, é mais barato, se experimenta mais. Ontem eu fui assistir o filme do Júlio [Bressane], o Dias de Nietzsche em Turim, e eu acho que antes de tudo é uma coisa de grande valor fazer cinema com uma outra cara, fazer um filme com uma outra cara. As caras são várias, mas são individuais, não estão procurando diretamente um mito, um espelho na mídia pra seguir. Apesar de eu achar que Godard ainda é o grande mestre, e que quem quer fazer bom cinema tem que ser inspirado nele, de uma certa forma.
E o percurso do próprio Godard é bastante diferente da agitação que era nos anos 60. Ele também está mais consciente, bastante introspectivo.
É, mas é absolutamente revolucionário, pessoal, anárquico, inteligente, anti-americanista (risos), com todas as suas características. E virou meio um sábio, né? Eu acho que o Godard é um sábio do cinema. Vocês viram o Éloge de l'Amour.
Sim, vimos.
É uma coisa maravilhosa, você sai maravilhado do cinema. Um amigo meu falou que saiu do filme como se tivesse saído de Cantando na Chuva, de tanta leveza. E é o oposto, né? Mas dá aquela extrema felicidade. Muito legal.
Falando dessa relação entre cinema e teatro de que você estava falando, como é que você faz a preparação para as suas personagens? Você vê uma diferença fundamental no teatro e no cinema ou é de papel para papel?
De papel para papel, sim. A diferença existe, claro, ela é óbvia. Se você vai representar um pedaço do rosto, um perfil, do que representar com o corpo inteiro, com uma mão. O cinema escolhe qual é a sua parte prioritária para expressar aquele determinado momento, podem ser as costas... Godard filma muito de costas, quase ninguém filma de costas. E eu sempre adorei essa coisa, em Savannah Bay eu começo de costas. Eu fico um bom tempo de costas, eu falo, e as pessoas se perguntam "O que é? O que ela quer?" E a receptividade do público era maravilhosa. Antes de ser feito é que se questionava se aquilo ia funcionar ou não. Mas o público não está tão viciado. Principalmente o público de teatro que vai ver uma peça especial está mais aberto.
Vendo essa mostra do cinema marginal, a gente percebia que várias vezes situações que davam uma grande liberdade para os atores, como os longos planos-seqüência do Sem Essa Aranha ou de Os Monstros de Babaloo. Como eram esses ritos de improvisação?
Era sim, era uma grande liberdade do ator. A atriz, no caso, que era eu, tinha muita participação cênica, como os outros atores que trabalhavam junto. Era uma delícia, uma grande liberdade e o ator existia, como o roteirista, como o fotógrafo... Era uma peça essencial. Claro que é essencial. mas se ouve falar - e é verdade - que o ator é um objeto em cena. Ali eu criava, nos seus movimentos, nas suas palavras. Mas esse já é um outro cinema. Mas voltando ao que você me perguntava, eu acho que é de personagem para personagem a melhor maneira de trabalhar. Eu agora estou querendo trabalhar com economia, com aquilo que eu trabalhei em O Padre e a Moça. Na direção de Antiga, foi muito pedido isso pra mim. Daquele personagem que é importante cada gesto, de como ele pega (faz um gesto de pegar), o movimento tem que ser simples mas estudado...
Um trabalho de contenção de gestos...
De contenção de gestos, isso. Simplicidade e exatidão.
Você uma vez disse que o Joaquim Pedro [de Andrade] pediu para você atuar em O Padre e a Moça sem os braços.
É, sem os braços, não movimentar... Deixar a figura mais neutra possível, contida. Em O Padre e a Moça, a personagem se encontra mesmo numa camisa de força, até que rompe. Rompe e é queimada. Então só no amor que ela consegue cortar essa prisão. O "sem braços" ali fazia parte de uma composição mais monolítica. Nesse sentido de contenção eu também trabalhei na última peça do Dionísio. Apesar de correr, andar, me movimentar e tal, mas dentro de uma simplicidade. Só satisfazia quando limpava, limpava, limpava, fica só aquela coisinha (vai baixando a voz para dar a dmiensão de leveza). Fluía muito tranqüilo, dentro de vários estados emocionais. Sem monotonia nenhuma, porque a vida não pode ser monótona, e a arte ainda muito menos. Apesar de ser minimalista, não pode ter monotonia.
Uma coisa que impressionou a maior parte das pessoas presentes na mostra - falando aqui dos filmes do Rogério que você fez parte - foi a incrível espontaneidade dos atores, e a coisa que se ficava sempre discutindo era o que era definido antes da filmagem, se o Rogério dava apenas diretrizes, se ele te dava toda liberdade ou se todos os movimentos, tanto no espaço quanto na fala, já eram todos calculados de antemão...
Isso é interessante. Sem Essa Aranha foi o filme mais coreografado que eu fiz. Era uma liberdade dentro das linhas que o Rogério ensaiava.
O filme era todo marcado?
Todo marcado.
Quando se fala das coreografias no cinema brasileiro, todo mundo fala de Terra em Transe, de Os Deuses e os Mortos, mas nesse filme tem pelo menos um plano-seqüência que eu acho que é antológico, que é aquele da boate, duma gafieira, que termina com você e com a Maria Gladys debruçadas na janela de frente para uma janela que dava para Copacabana.
Sei, a do bolero... Era uma boate que tinha em Copacabana, clássica...
Tem umas coisas impressionantes no filme, de quando a câmera segue o Luiz Gonzaga saindo da casa, e você fica falando "O sistema solar é uma merda".
Aquele pátio, né? Foi um filme muito trabalhado. Um dos mais trabalhados nesse sentido.
Na verdade houve uma certa ruptura entre O Bandido da Luz Vermelha e A Mulher de Todos para os filmes da Belair, e inclusive em relação ao trabalho dos atores dá pra perceber isso, os dois primeiros filmes são muito montados, muito pensados, né?
Sim, Mulher de Todos sim. Mas também Sem Essa Aranha, que é muito pensado, muito trabalhado. Não teve esse nível de improvisação não. Porque ele queria fazer um filme com oitro planos-seqüências. Então era um filme realmente pra levar a alguma coisa. Copacabana Mon Amour, sim, foi mais solto. O filme tem planos absolutamente inusitados, como aquele do Othoniel Serra fazendo o fantasma de Copacabana. Absolutamente maravilhoso. Os atores rendem muito. Por isso todo mundo quer trabalhar com o Rogério. E depois que trabalha todo mundo quer voltar a trabalhar.
Voltando ao período que vai de 1968 até 1970 você fez um número incrível de filmes, você deve ter feito uns 10, 12 filmes.
Fiz muito, até 1972. Em 72 houve uma outra guinada existencial na minha vida, tomei outro rumo. Daí fui pra Europa, África e tal. Mas de uma forma, sempre muito ligada ao cinema.
Você chegou a filmar na África, não?
Na África, em Nova York, Estados Unidos, na Inglaterra.
Qual o nome do filme da África?
Não sei, acho que não tem nome, é em super-8.
E vocês ainda têm registro?
Sim, o Rogério tem ainda. E mesmo no tempo em que eu fiquei mais afastada ainda, abracei uma verdadeira vida de monge, morava em templo, viajei muito, fui a templos no mundo todo, mesmo assim eu trabalhei com teatro. Dava aulas, dirigia, fazia peças... tanto fora do Brasil como aqui.
Nesse circuito você esteve em que países?
Nos Estados Unidos inteiros, viajei de costa a costa. E fui à Índia também. Voltei a Londres também. Quer dizer, houve um afastamento real do dia-a-dia: não lia jornal, não me ocupada com o que não estava na minha alçada. Era outro trabalho. Me dedicava inteiramente àquilo. Mesmo nisso existia o teatro e o cinema.
E você acha que esse período de afastamento mudou de alguma forma a sua maneira de atuar, de encarar a arte?
Na maneira de atuar sim. Depurou. Estava conversando com um grande amigo meu, um antigo amigo, uma amizade que eu retomei agora, que é o Fauzi Arap. E o Fauzi realmente foi o maior ator que eu já vi em toda a minha vida. E eu me pergunto. Vi muito teatro. Trabalhei com vários atores extraordinários. Mas como o Fauzi, só o Fauzi. E ele desistiu de ser ator, acho uma loucura, inacreditável. E aí eu falei, "Ah, Fauzi, acho que nunca vou deixar de atuar, porque pra mim é uma espécie de religião essa coisa de ser intérprete, né?" E eu falei pra ele que eu fiquei melhor atriz. E ele gargalhava. Isso apesar de ser fã daquela atriz que fez A Mulher de Todos, eu realmente acho que melhorei. Acho que a gente depura esse contato com uma atmosfera menos pesada, material, com tanto espírito de competição. Acho que a competição acaba com você, destrói. Quando você vê um ator ou diretor caindo é porque ele entrou nessa luta de competir, de ser o melhor, o que eu acho a coisa mais grosseira da vida material. Eu estou num lado bem mais sutil.
De uma certa maneira, houve um grande desprendimento, né? Como a gente falou, você está sempre na vanguarda. Você era uma atriz muito conhecida, tinha feito Assalto ao Trem Pagador, e foi fazer os filmes do Rogério e do Júlio, os chamados "marginais"...
E mais que isso, porque nessa época eu era produtora. Meu dinheirinho também entrou nisso.
A Mulher de Todos e O Bandido da Luz Vermelha funcionaram muito bem no aspecto de público.
Funcionaram muito bem, mas depois veio a Belair. A Belair não poderia ter entrado no circuito exibidor porque era uma época horrorosa, e os militares estavam preparando o que tem de pior, que é a pornochanchada. E a Belair ficou por fora, os realizadores também tinham umas opiniões contrárias à ditadura... Senão eles poderiam também ter emplacado.
Os filmes deles têm claramente o interesse em dialogar com o popular: o Bressane trabalhou com o Grande Otelo, O Rogério chamou o Zé Bonitinho, o Luiz Gonzaga, o Moreira da Silva, trabalhou música com o GIlberto Gil...
Isso... Também o Dom Um [Romão]... O Rogério quer fazer com o Gilberto Gil um outro filme... É isso, o último filme de Grande Otelo foi com o Rogério, o Nem Tudo É Verdade.
Você é uma das atrizes mais soltas, mais livres de movimento. Até o Stanislavsky fala isso, que uma das primeiras coisas para o ator desenvolver um processo de criatividade no trabalho ele deve ter um corpo solto e mais livre possível. Agora, eu acho que – falo mais pelo Savannah Bay, que foi onde eu pude ver você em ação por mais tempo nos últimos anos – você atua num certo sentido da contenção e de ter poucos gestos mas todos os gestos muito bem pensados e muito significativos. Vendo A Mulher de Todos, Sem Essa Aranha ou Copacabana Mon Amour o que mais se sente com força é uma certa violência: o grito, os gestos que parecem completamente irrefletidos.
Isso... Mas em Savannah existia esse vulcão interior, que surgia de vez em quando, mas o personagem é fechado, recalca aquilo através de um certo humor. A própria Marguerite Duras fala que as emoções são imorais, às vezes... Mas eu acho que é a mesma pessoa. Se eu não tivesse ido ao extremo de A Mulher de Todos eu não chegaria à contenção de Savannah Bay. Apesar de Savannah Bay ter sido no começo ainda mais contido. Foi o Rogério, inclusive, que abriu, que esgarçou o personagem. Ela era completamente monolítica. Cada riso, cada sorriso, fosse o que fosse, estava tudo sob a égide da contenção. Savannah Bay está mais próxima de O Padre e a Moça. E A Mulher de Todos era o contrário, era a anarquia do corpo, e também Sob o Signo do Caos, que é mais nessa linha de A Mulher de Todos.
Você atua com quem nesse filme?
Tem várias pessoas. Tem a Giovanna Gold, tem a Camila Pitanga, tem o Guará, o Otávio Terceiro, que já trabalhou com o Rogério antes. E é isso, tem esse prazer de brincar com o corpo e com o movimento.
Você filma há trinta e cinco anos com o Rogério. Você vê uma mudança, uma diferença na maneira como você trabalha com ele desde O Bandido da Luz Vermelha a Sob o Signo do Caos?
Existe uma mudança sim. E existe também uma coisa inacabada nessa mudança, algo que não está acabado. Por exemplo, é claro que eu passei de uma jovem, de uma menina para uma senhora de sessenta anos. Agora, corporalmente, na questão dos movimentos, houve um apuro com o tempo Apesar da minha formação ser uma formação de dança – então já se esperava que eu fosse por aí –, eu desenvolvi com o tai-chi-chuan, com lutas marciais internas da tradição chinesa. Eu até aprimorei e mantive todos os movimentos técnicos da juventude. Então eu fiquei, de uma certa forma, uma atriz bem original. Já era, talvez, e continuei sendo meio original. Porque eu sempre gosto de, no meio de uma atuação clássica, sair para um lado mais de experimentação. Então isso com o Rogério, sempre foi assim. Mas agora, na maturidade, eu não vejo que está completo o meu ciclo com o Rogério. Em Sob o Signo do Caos, acho que as pessoas que gopstam do meu trabalho vão continuar gostando, mas ainda é uma transição. Eu quero pegar agora uns papéis de velha, como atriz já em outro estado da vaidade, da contenção. Eu acho inacabado por isso, porque tem ainda essa fase pela frente. O Rogério, como ele também se aprimorou muito na pesquisa dele, na sinceridade dos filmes, de fazer exatamente o que quer, ele ainda nesse sentido está jovem, né? Tem muita coisa ainda que ele pode fazer, e esse desejo está forte e se restaurando. Porque também houve um aspecto de decepção com a arte, com a dificuldade de fazer arte, acho que tanto da minha parte como da dele. E agora a coisa parece que ficou melhor. Eu já estou assumindo a minha maturidade, estou nela e está sendo ótimo, e ele está cheio de vigor para fazer um cinema tão interessante como sempre fez.
Você falou da sua formação em dança... Queria saber um pouco mais de como você começou, como você ingressou no teatro e depois no cinema. Qual o tipo de formação que você teve?
Eu fiz teatro e dança. Dança contemporânea, dança moderna, mas que sempre inclui uma base de clássico. Isso na Bahia, com grandes professoras, grandes figuras da dança moderna. E também fiz Afro, até mais ou menos 1972. Em 1972 eu conheci o tai-chi-chuan, e foi uma coisa de uma dedicação, que não pára, vai até hoje, o tempo passou, já são vinte anos e eu ainda me dedico, e me dedico, tendo aulas com fulano, cicrano, faço seminários com aquele mestre em não-sei-onde, corro atrás. Faço algumas armas também, faço espada, faço leque...
E no teatro? Você fez teatro com o Martim, com o Gianni Ratto, e que idéias circulavam? Que tipo de preparação se fazia lá?
A formação foi clássica, stanislavskiana e Actor's Studio, o Martim tinha contatos com o Arthur Miller, tocava a campainha da casa dele e vinha a Marilyn abrir, era uma pessoa íntima de grandes personalidades da época, um pernambucano que sofreu muito porque era viado, e todo mundo, até os comunistas, tinham um preconceito terrível.
Isso por volta dos anos 50?
Quase anos 60. Ele tinha essa fama mas não dava bandeira de jeito algum, comportava-se como uma freira, mas mesmo assim o pessoal perseguia ele, nos 4, 5 anos de escola. E ele era assim, tinha uma formação stanislavskiana, via Actor's Studio, e com grandes mestres de cenografia, de dicção. Brutus Pedreira, que trabalhou em Limite, nos ensinou música... Kollreuter... A formação era a melhor possível, a mais ampla. Teatro deve ser isso, uma formação ampla. E com a Lina Bo Bardi, diretora do Teatro Castro Alves, onde eu trabalhie várias vezes. Ela também era professora da escola... Uma formação... nossa! O aluno já saía dali preparado para a vida, abria a cabeça de toda a garotada baiana da época.
Em que momento apareceu o não-realismo? Porque A Mulher de Todos, por exemplo, é muito mais pautado no ator como ator do que como personagem... O filme já começa com você dando todos aqueles chutes no Stênio que já é uma quebra do modelo clássico do ator...
Mas n'O Bandido já tinha o não-realismo. Aliás, o roteiro d'O Bandido foi escrito antes da história do bandido da luz vermelha. Aí apareceu nos jornais, as coisas se encaixavam e isso foi usado. Mas nem podia ficar muito claro senão os advogados do cara iam em cima. Mas será que eu fiz algum filme realista? O Padre e a Moça?
A Grande Feira...
É, A Grande Feira, mas O Pátio não, São Jerônimo não... Teve o Assalto ao Trem Pagador...
Você tem vontade de pgar um papel realista?
Tenho, eu gosto.
O Maria Moura vai por esse lado?
É uma comédia, eu trabalho com o Jorge Dória, ele arrasou, fizemos uma seqüência maravilhosa, eu torço para que o filme saia. Eu também penso agora em fazer um filme.
Dirigir?
É, agora é tão difícil... Que bom se não precisasse de tanto dinheiro, se tivesse um instituto.
E em que pé está?
Bom, as idéias vêm vindo, vêm se encaixando uma na outra, às vezes desmancham, porque tem muito a ver com uma experiência pessoal, eu gosto muito de um livro de uns baianos sobre a juventude minha e de Glauber. Tem um personagem chamado Leninha, e o livro conta coisas até intimos, emocionais minhas, num trabalho de pesquisa... Tem coisas que nem eu sei como foram parar lá. Esse casal de irmãos dramatizou a época, 57, 58, que é exatamente o período em que eu estive com o Glauber. Então eu acho que daí pode dar um docudrama interessante tendo na cidade de Salvador um elemento importantíssimo. Pega fragmentos dessa história e incluir nessa cidade de Salvador que começou a dar virada, porque ainda era muito primitiva. Isso termina em 1970, por aí. Alguma coisa ligada à Bahia. E eu tenho comigo um roteiro, também, que foi feito com um rapaz de teatro, muito legal, saiu uma coisa bem interessantezinha. De um grupo de teatro no Vidigal.
O Nós do Morro?
Não, simplesmente um grupo de pessoas. Uma menina, surgiu a história de uma menina, todo mundo gostava e tal, eu mandei pra RioFilme naquela época e não foi aprovado. Deu um desânimo... Quer dizer, a gente sabia que podia acontecer, mas era ótimo o trabalho deles...
A gente falou um bocado do teu trabalho com o Sganzerla, mas e o teu trabalho com o Bressane, da Belair até o São Jerônimo? O que ele te pede, qual a margem de liberdade que ele te dá?
No São Jerônimo ele falou, "Olha, eu quero a imagem mais contida possível, as mulheres são neutras". E a voz. Nos outros filmes, a contribuição era grande.
Não era tão marcado?
Era também. Mas não era coreografado, como no Sem Essa Aranha, porque o Júlio é mais fixo, mais contemplativo. E ótimo de trabalhar. É muito legal.
Qual o filme que você teve mais prazer fazendo e qual é o filme que você vendo acha que tem mais de Helena Ignez na tela?
A Mulher de Todos tem bastante... É, acho que A Mulher de Todos.
Também foi o que te deu mais prazer fazendo?
Prazer eu tenho em todos, eu tive muito prazer em fazer Sob o Signo do Caos também. E adorei fazer também o filme do Júlio, porque não é fácil fazer o que ele pede, aquela voz integrada no corpo. Mas o prazer para mim é o mesmo.
Só mais um último comentário: eu acho incrível que, logo depois de vocês fazerem A Mulher de Todos, o filme do Rogério e o seu personagem mudaram o perfil de atuação de cinema no Brasil. Eu não sei se é uma influência da época ou do filme, acho que dos dois, mas um monte de atrizes caminhou no sentido dessa espontaneidade maior. Logo depois a Adriana Prieto vai fazer com o Roberto Santos Um Anjo Mau, onde ela também usa muito essa violência feminina, a Anecy Rocha no filme do Walter Lima Jr. [A Lira do Delírio], várias atrizes que seguem por esse caminho. Você é bastante pioneira. Eu não creio que haja um filme antes de A Mulher de Todos que apresente uma força tão grande na presença da mulher.
Foi muito forte ter feito A Mulher de Todos. Na época não foi mole não. Muito preconceito, muita coisa que acontecia. E a sensação não era muito cômoda porque eu ganhava muito prêmio, recebia prêmios nos festivais. Não era simpático. As minhas amigas estavam lá... Mesmo com O Padre e a Moça aconteceu isso. Você sabe, a Fernanda [Montenegro] fala isso, que ganhar prêmios não é cômodo. Nessa época eu queria romper mais. Eu queria botar pra quebrar a linguagem estabelecida, em todos os sentidos. E nisso, evidentemente, tinha também o impulso destrutivo, e você falou aí no meio o nome de duas pessoas que morreram ainda jovens, no começo da jornada, que também seguiram esse caminho, a Anecy e a Adriana. Eu acho que você tem que romper mas tem que manter uma chama de amor, senão fica só destruição e se volta contra você mesma. E eu espero, como a vida imita a arte e a arte imita a vida, que hoje fique o lado realmente engraçado, divertido, positivo. Naquela última sessão de A Mulher de Todos na mostra...
... As pessoas riram muito...
Riram muito, nunca vi rirem tanto (risos). É muito engraçado.
Porque o filme também é uma declaração de amor.
É. E ali eu também estava amando profundamente. Mas não era Rogério só. O amor dele foi se depurar com o tempo. O amor mesmo era o da arte, de passar pelas pessoas, de vontade de chegar a elas, é meio interpessoal. E também um momento extraordinário do sentido particular, porque afinal era o amor da minha vida que eu tinha encontrado. Eu vi agora a Malu [Mader] no Bellini e a Esfinge? Dentro do convencional, ela está tão feliz de estar fazendo que é adorável ver. Antes de tudo, ela tem uma tal alegria de ter chegado a estar fazendo o que ela queria. Isso passa. Não se torna mais um trabalho. Isso tinha em A Mulher de Todos muito forte. No caso da Anecy, em A Lira do Delírio, que é um dos filmes mais bonitos do cinema brasileiro, tinha quase uma premonição da morte. Eu não consigo nem ver esse filme direito.. .Tinha a fragmentação do personagem. Mas era diferente do meu filme com o Rogério. Mas é, eu acho que houve uma influência grande, em vários filmes, algumas inconfessadas, outras confessadas, até bem mais tarde.
Eu acho interessante também essa coisa da chanchada, que o Rogério retomou os atores, um certo fascínio por um tipo de personagem como Zé Bonitinho que está lá. Quer dizer, tinha esse interessa para compor o personagem.
Tinha. Os grandes mestres são os cômicos populares. Esses são maravilhosos. Agora eu estou rindo porque num determinado dia no ensaio de Antiga, que era muito sério, muito comportado do ponto de vista cultural, eu falei, "Mas isso aqui está parecendo A Praça É Nossa!" E as pessoas ficaram assim, "Logo com o que você foi dizer que nós estamos parecidos? A Praça É Nossa?" (risos) Porque era realmente quatro chanchadeiros ali naquele palco. E é ótimo, isso existe no ator brasileiro. Acho que a característica dele é pelo povo, né? Quer dizer, a gente não pode se desvincular do popular. Tem alguém mais pé no povo do americano do que o Sean Penn? É um típico neurótico americano. É um grande ator. Ele é completamente enraizado na sua cultura.

LA TELENOVELA COMO GÉNERO 5
LOS GALANES Y LAS TELENOVELAS DE LAS DIFERENTES DECADAS 9
CONCLUSIÓN 77
ENTREVISTAS 78
BIBLIOGRAFÍA 81
Éste trabajo trata sobre los galanes de de la televisión argentina. Para poder hablar de ellos tuvimos que investigar, sacando datos de distintas fuentes, ya sea Internet, libros, revistas o por medio de entrevistas. Las entrevistas fueron hechas a personas relacionadas con el tema. Los entrevistados fueron actores, como Gabriel Goity (actualmente trabajando en Los Roldán, por TELEFE) Marcelo Cosentino y Federico Olivera (actualmente trabajando ambos en Padre Coraje, cana 13). La cuarta entrevistada fue una periodista entendida en el tema que trabaja en el diario Clarín, llamada Adriana Bruno.
Para poder hacer un análisis ordenado sobre los galanes decidimos dividir la historia de ellos y de las telenovelas en general de nuestro país en décadas. De ésta manera también pudimos obtener una breve historia de toda la televisión nacional desde sus comienzos, lo cual no ayudó a entender muchas cosas.
Al principio de nuestro trabajo nosotras planteamos una hipótesis: El galán de telenovela dejó de ser el hombre recio y estructurado de los años 50’ para convertirse en el sensible del 2000. A lo largo del desarrollo del trabajo vamos a ver si la hipótesis será refutada o si, por el contrario, será afirmada.
Además hicimos una investigación sobre lo que es el género, ya que nos parece que es importante saberlo porque dependiendo de cómo sea éste se puede entender cuales son sus exigencias a la hora de buscar a las personas que luego interpretarán los diferentes personajes. Así se puede entender por qué se buscan determinadas características, físicas y psicológicas a la hora de elegir a un actor.
También hicimos un análisis sobre el contexto histórico por que atravesaba el país desde 1950 hasta la actualidad, ya que creemos que eso influye mucho en las historias que se pueden contar y en los temas a tratar. Como todos sabemos nuestro país pasó por muchos cambios a nivel político, social y económico, de los cuales algunos no fueron muy satisfactorios. Todos ellos, los cambios buenos y los malos, influyeron de diferentes maneras en todos los ámbitos, y por supuesto también en la televisión y en su manera de contar las cosas.
INTRODUCCIÓN
Muchos de nosotros al hablar de telenovelas las caratulamos como un genero solo femenino, un genero burdo y chabacano, donde todo lo que pasa es solo para que las amas de casas entren en ese mundo de historias de enredo y que después tengan tema para charlar mientras se juntan a tomar mate con sus amigas.
Pero para otras personas la telenovela es una arte, una trabajo al cual se le dedica mucho tiempo y a la cual se le pone mucho esfuerzo.
Aquí nos vamos a encargar de hablar de una pequeña porción de todo ese grupo de gente que trabaja para las telenovelas: Los galanes. Esos hombres, que hacen que más de una mujer se haga pis cuando lo ve decir Te amo y cuando envidia a la heroína en la hora del tan deseado y esperado beso.
A lo largo de la historia de la televisión es interminable la lista de nombres que podemos hacer, y muy diferentes son uno en comparación con el otro, de cada uno sacamos algo y aunque juntemos todo nunca llegaremos a hacer al Galán ideal. Les vamos a proponer un prototipo de galán pero pueden o no estar de acuerdo, todo es válido.
A lo largo este trabajo vamos a tratar de comprobar si se mantiene la rudeza del galán de los años 50 o si hay una sensibilidad del galán del 2000, para esto vamos a pasar por las telenovelas más famosas de todas las épocas, además veremos que sucedió en cada época a nivel cultura, económico, y social, el cual consideramos que pueden ser alguno de los factores de este posible cambio.
LA TELENOVELAS COMO GENERO
Tiene sus orígenes en la fusión de radioteatro, folletín, melodrama , épico y tragedia.
RADIOTEATRO
Toman los diálogos (muchas veces el desarrollo del conflicto se narra con palabras mas que con la acción, incluso, es la palabra la que define los personajes. Los que están legitimados socialmente tienen la palabra, se manifiestan y juzgan a través de las frases intencionas).
FOLLETÍN
Toman los triángulos amorosos, las historias de amor apasionadas, los ricos malos y pobres buenos, el dinero no hace a la felicidad y también extrae del género el gancho al final de cada entrega. También del folletín toma la secuencias repetitivas ya que hay que mantener una historia a través de un largo periodo de tiempo. La telenovela cuenta sus historias matizando la repetición con la innovación. El suspenso de las telenovelas también es fragmentado, aunque la resolución de los conflictos se da generalmente en forma precipitada y hacia el final de la historia.
MELODRAMA
Toma las temáticas como la vida, la muerte, el amor no correspondido, los gestos y las acciones exageradas.
El melodrama surge en Francia, en la época de la revolución, plantea conflictos entre dos mundos opuestos (los buenos contra los malos, los justos contra los injustos).
Fue el genero dramático mas arraigado en el siglo XIX. Es incuestionable que el melodrama representa la forma mas popular de teatro jamás producida. Provee un vehículo para los efectos escénicos mas espectaculares así como para una interpretación efectista. Del mismo modo asienta las bases para le televisión.
La palabra melodrama tiene dos significados:
1) Combinación de comedia y tragedia
2) Una drama acompañado de música: Esta definición es fácilmente aplicable a la mayoría de películas y producciones televisivas en las que los personajes son identificados a través de la temática y las emociones del publico manipuladas a través de la música.
Este genero se compone normalmente de tres actos en ves de cinco. La trama se centra en torno a un conflicto entre un protagonista virtuoso y un malvado villano. El héroe antes de su triunfo final debe sortear una gran cantidad de problemas.
En la acción se pueden encontrar inundaciones, terremotos, erupciones volcánicas, persecuciones a caballo, o batallas todo contado con un gran lujo de detalles.
El melodrama se convirtió en un genero netamente popular por tener una trama compleja e intrincada, personajes bien delineados, fuerte carga emocional, por que brinda un espectáculo y por que tiene un claro mensaje moral.
ÉPICO
Es un género literario en el cual el autor presenta de forma objetiva hechos legendarios o ficticios desarrollados en un espacio y en un tiempo determinado. El autor usa como forma de expresión habitual la narración aunque también puede ser utilizada la descripción o el dialogo.
En la épica se encuadran los siguientes subgéneros:
1) EPOPEYA: poema narrativo extenso, que se refiere a acciones dignas de la memoria de un héroe o de un pueblo (Ej. La Ilíada, la Odisea, la Divina Comedia)
2) POEMA ÉPICO: producción literaria pertenecientes a lo épico escrito en verso.
3) CANTAR DE GESTA: manifestación literaria de las leyendas heroicas de un pueblo, compuestas fundamentalmente para ser escuchadas mas que leídas.
4) ROMANCE: forma poética tradicional en versos octosílabos con rima alterna en asonante (entre verso)
5) NOVELA: obra narrativa de ficción escrita en prosa y de extensión superior al cuento.
TRAGEDIA:
Forma dramática que pone en escena personajes enfrentados a conflictos provocados por pasiones humanas que desembocan a menudo, aunque no necesariamente, en un desenlace fatal. También, cada una de las piezas teatrales que participan de la forma teatral del mismo nombre. Era, junto a la comedia, una de las formas clásicas del drama griego.
CARACTERISTICAS
En todas las telenovelas tradicionales hay elementos que se repiten constantemente, con esto queremos decir que las telenovelas tienen características similares:
Ø La heroína central de la historia es una mujer. En todo teleteatro tenemos una heroína que está en la mala: es pobre, ciega, analfabeta, huérfana o ex presidiario.
Ø El galán que acompaña a la heroína, con la que comparten las mayores peleas. Es el que busca mil maneras de seducir a la heroína y una vez que lo consigue la engaña con otras mujeres, motivo importante de las grandes peleas entre ellos dos.
Ø La presencia de los ricos en los teleteatros es indispensable.
Ø Cuentan historias de amor que se ven truncadas por agentes externos a la voluntad de los protagonistas. Pero ese amor es más fuerte que la pertenencia social y los lazos de sangre, supera el tiempo, la distancia, las desgracias más terribles.
Ø El incesto es un elemento característico en el teleteatro, generalmente el tema del incesto se resuelve y los protagonistas pueden concretar su amor de un día para el otro.
Ø Gran cantidad de conflictos durante la historia.
Ø El secreto como base del relato. Generalmente ese secreto a develar es conocido por el espectador pero no por los protagonistas.
Ø Las escaleras son un elemento que no falta en ningún decorado de una escena teatral. La malvada es la que mejor hace uso de la escalera.
Ø Negación de la identidad. En la mayoría de las novelas los protagonistas desconocen su verdadero origen.
Ø En todas las telenovelas el que las hace la paga, el castigo le llega finalmente a los culpables. Generalmente mueren, terminan presos, encerrados en un loquero o terminan en una silla de ruedas.
Ø El final feliz es otra de las reglas de las telenovelas, ya que siempre se descubren las mentiras y los malos entendidos aunque a veces esto puede no darse y que la telenovela no tenga un final feliz.
ETAPAS DE LA TELENOVELA
La telenovela es el género narrativo más popular en la historia de la humanidad. Históricamente se pueden señalar cuatro etapas en la producción latinoamericana de telenovelas:
Ø La inicial, que abarca desde la década del 50 hasta la del 60, en que surge el videotape.
Ø La etapa artesanal, que llega hasta los años 70, Que se caracteriza por las diferentes experimentaciones que se producen dentro del genero. Son de bajo presupuesto y están destinadas al mercado local.
Ø La etapa industrial en la que la producción se ordena y estandariza. Este periodo abarca las décadas del 70 y el 80.
Ø La etapa transnacional, que se transita en la actualidad, donde la telenovela gana mercados internacionales.
ETAPA INICIAL
Los programas estaban hechos en vivo, sólo quedan testimonios escritos, orales, y fotografías, y en el mejor de los casos, los libretos. La ¨historia¨
comienza a partir de la incorporación de la grabación en videotape
ETAPA ARTESANAL
En los últimos años de la década de la década del 50 o en los primeros de la del 60 comienza a utilizarse el videotape en distintos países del continente. A partir de ello, las telenovelas dejarán de ser transmitidas en vivo. La aparición del videotape le dio una mayor verosimilitud a la imagen ya que los posibles errores podían ser solucionados a través del montaje o edición.
ETAPA INDUSTRIAL
Las telenovelas producidas en diferentes países latinoamericanos van afirmando sus diferencias, destacándose países como Brasil, México y Venezuela como los productores mas importantes de las décadas del 70 y 80.
Adquieren mucha importancia los protagonistas de las novelas, quienes se convierten en figuras que además de actuar incursionan en la carrera de cantantes, aparecen en las tapas de las revistas, filman avisos publicitarios y son invitados a los mas importantes programas de televisión y radio.
ETAPA TRANSNACIONAL
La telenovela comienza a ganar mercados internacionales insertándose en diferentes países., pero para que esto ocurra se tiene que cumplir con una serie de requisitos como la extensión (de 180 a 200 capítulos), la calidad de la imagen y el sonido, la entrega debe ser uniforme en la totalidad de las entregas y la temática debe ser entendida universalmente.
PERSONAJES DE UNA TELENOVELA TRADICIONAL
Estos personajes son los que no pueden faltar dentro de una telenovela tradicional aunque a veces esto no se cumple como en el caso de “Betty La Fea” en la cual la protagonista no cuenta con las características de una heroína tradicional.
LA HEROÍNA
La protagonista es buena, linda, ingenua, pura. Todos se enamoran de ella. Pero ella únicamente tiene ojos para su galán y nunca es quien parece ser.
Ella va a pasar por toda clase de contratiempos y desgracias, va a ser engañada, maltratada, humillada, ofendida mientras ella se caracteriza por su bondad, juventud y belleza.
EL GALAN
Es muy buen mozo, toda las mujeres lo desean, pero el solo tiene ojos para la heroína. El héroe generalmente es rico y muy mujeriego.
LA MALVADA
Es una mujer que hace lo que sea para lograr su objetivo, es muy inteligente y planea constantemente maldades.
Ella tiene dinero, poder. Es elegante, tiene estilo, tiene sentido del humor, y una saludable ambición. Quiere todo. Tienen todo menos el amor del galán.
La malvada generalmente es rica, bella, se viste siempre de rojo.
APRENDÍZ DE LA MALVADA
Es ambiciosa, sigue los consejos y aprende de la malvada. Es una joven inescrupulosa, llena de coraje pero sin experiencia.
LA SEGUNDA MADRE
Es el personaje que rescata de una muerte segura a la protagonista.
LA SIRVIENTA
Toda malvada tiene una sirvienta que le es fiel a pesar de todo. Ella conoce sus secretos y los guarda . La sirvienta es la depositaria de sus confidencias y maltratos.
Suele ser una persona mayor.
LA MUCAMA
A diferencia de la sirvienta la mucama es joven, divertida. No tiene compromisos éticos con nadie en la familia, habla demasiado, siempre mete la pata.
EL BUEN MUCHACHO
Es el personaje que se enamora de la heroína y da todo por ella. La ama con locura y nunca pierde las esperanzas de conseguir su amor.
Generalmente es abogado, médico, tiene dinero y es buenísimo.
LOS GALANES Y LAS TELENOVELAS DE LAS DIFERENTES DECADAS
DÉCADA DEL 50
En julio de 1951, Jaime Yankelevich, pionero en el medio, junto a su hijo Samuel viajan a los EE.UU. para traer desde allí los primeros equipos. En un largo viaje en barco traen cámaras, transmisores, cables, luces, repuestos y todo lo necesario para poner en marcha la televisión en Argentina.
Jaime Yankelevich acuerda con el gobierno peronista de esa época realizar la primera transmisión televisiva el día 17 de octubre de ese año. En esa fecha se cumple el 6º aniversario del Día de la Lealtad peronista y se realiza un multitudinario acto en la Plaza de Mayo. Allí Eva Perón pronuncia su discurso al pueblo después del famoso Renunciamiento Histórico a la candidatura como vicepresidente de la Nación en las elecciones próximas, por encontrarse ya muy enferma.
Con la mencionada transmisión queda inaugurado el viejo Canal 7, conocido en ese entonces como LR 3 Radio Belgrano TV. Y son los locutores de la radio del mismo nombre los que se van pasar a trabajar también en el canal.
Los primeros pasos de la TV en esa época tienen muy poca repercusión en los medios gráficos ya que estos temen que le nuevo medio les “mueva el piso”.
Por otra parte es muy poca la gente que posee televisores en sus hogares. La mayoría de los aparatos se encuentran en bares y negocios y la gente se agolpa frente a las vidrieras de los mismos para poder ver.
El 4 de noviembre se inicia la programación regular, ya que desde el 17 de octubre hasta ese día solo se realizaron ensayos y pruebas. Y el 18 de ese mismo mes se transmite el primer partido de fútbol (River – San Lorenzo)
En 1954 comienza el primer tele noticioso argentino, que se emitía a la noche y presentaba un resumen de los hechos acontecidos durante la jornada
Todos los programas eran en vivo, con cambios rápidos de vestuario detrás de los estudios y con el siempre presente “fantasma del olvido de la letra” para los actores.
Desde un comienzo, se hacen presentes las publicidades y los auspicios en TV. Y se podían dar de dos maneras:
1- una placa tipográfica que se enfocaba en cámara durante algunos segundos
2- un aviso con mayor producción, de duración de un par de minutos, realizado en vivo y con la participación de locutores famosos como Guillermo Brizuela Méndez.
Una de las pioneras en anunciar en TV fue la tienda Gath & Chaves
Cabe destacar que los televisores en esos primero años eran importados desde EE.UU. y que recién en 1954 se abrirá la primera fábrica nacional: Copehart Argentina
En 1955 se produce la “Revolución Libertadora” que destituye al gobierno peronista. Esto trae cambios en el manejo del Canal del Estado (el único canal hasta el momento), y comienza la discusión sobre que modelo de televisión adoptar:
1- Europeo: con participación del Estado y sostenimiento vía impuesto anual
2- Americano: más competitivo y sostenido por la publicidad
En estos años se ponen de moda los programas de entretenimientos, siendo uno de los más recordados “Odol Pregunta” y también se emiten varios programas periodísticos.
Y para esa época se crea la Asociación de Periodistas de Radio y Televisión (Aptra) que entrega por primera vez los conocidos Premios “Martín Fierro”
En 1958, otro de los pioneros de la TV, el cubano Goar Mestre, crea Proartel. Esta es una empresa de producción de programas para abastecer a Canal 7 y a los futuros canales, ya que se empieza a estudiar la posibilidad de nuevas emisoras para lo cual se abre la licitación. Uno de sus impulsores fue Ricardo Pueyrredón.

CARACTERÍSTICAS DE LOS GALANES DEL 50
Si bien la década dio comienzo a este gran genero que son las novelas, muchas fueron los varios géneros que los actores interpretaban y que compartían en gran parte el formato con la telenovela. A lo largo de la historia de la década vamos a descubrir que lo que se representaban eran generalmente cosas que se imitaban de la radio, que era lo que más conocido era en ese momento y lo que estaba tomando gran auge. Pero además como todo era nuevo y había que innovar en la televisión también se interpretaban obras de la literatura nacional como el Martín Fierro y también extranjera, especialmente española. Pero como todo, llevo su proceso, sus pruebas con sus errores y con sus posteriores progresos. Por todos estos motivos resulta dificultoso poder describir a cada galán de cada obra televisiva y más a un prototipo de galán de la década por la diversidad de obras que se llevaban acabo y por lo diferentes que eran unas de otras. Pero realizando un análisis de la época hay características que reúnen de alguna manera al prototipo pionero de las novelas. Estos son:
Caballeros
Varoniles
Recio
Machistas
Muy sensibles
Educados
Atractivos, si bien no eran modelitos eran bastante llamativos para la atracción del publico femenino.
Estas son las que más sobresalen, pero obviamente que pueden haber más.
1950-Desde el 1º de Enero, se declara el Año del Libertador General San Martín, al conmemorarse el centenario de su muerte. Ese año se produce la clausura de más de 40 diarios opositores, entre ellos La Hora, Orientación La Nueva Provincia y Los Andes, por no incluir en sus ediciones la frase Año del Libertador General San Martín.
En tanto, Eva Perón sufre una indisposición y debe ser operada. El ministro de Educación, Oscar Ivanissevich, renuncia después de asegurar que existe la posibilidad de que Evita sufra una dolencia grave.
Es un año tenso y lleno de alternativas, condicionadas por la elección presidencial.

Un hecho importante ocurría cada vez que las cámaras se instalan en un teatro para transmitir la obra en directo bares y confiterías que eran los pocos que disponían de los aparatos transmisores , anunciaban con cartelería propia tal acontecimiento, que solía dejarlos sin una silla vacía. Un teatro muy grande acepta 1000 espectadores por función. Por todas la ciudad podían llegar a ver la obra diez o veinte veces esa cantidad de personas.. ese romance entre la televisión y el teatro duro poco ya que los dueños de los teatros comenzaron a observar que la venta de entradas caían. Bastaba que una obra pasara completa por televisión para que las salas comenzaran a vaciarse. En ese momento es que los productores de la televisión piensan en llegar el teatro a los estudios de televisión. Con ensayos durante el día y emisión en vivo durante la tarde o noche, se acababa de crear el espacio para los teleteatros.
Uno de los primeros teleteatros fue Cielo Negado con dirección de Alfredo Laferreiére y con actuación es de Alma Veléz e Iván Grondona ,este fue uno de los primeros teleteatros, que, se permitió la audacia de mezclar situaciones en estudio con otros en exterior.

Poco después, el sindicato de los canillitas provoca un entredicho con el diario La Prensa.
El 11 de Noviembre, se realizan las elecciones presidenciales. El peronismo lleva a su líder como candidato, acompañado por su antiguo compañero de fórmula de 1946, Juan Hortensio Quijano, por entonces gravemente enfermo.

Luego llega El teleteatro del romance, escrito por Celia Alcantará y protagonizado por Patricia Castel y Claudio Rodríguez Leiva(aunque algunos medios no corroboran las memorias de Castel y afirman que el compañero de rubro era Armando Novoa). En el marco del Teleteatro de la sonrisa, Eifle Calesia escribía los argumentos de Propiedad Horizontal, con actores como José María Gutiérrez, Nelly Daren, Perla Mux y Claudio Rodríguez Leiva, y de Amor en mesa de saldos, también con Nelly Daren, pero en este caso formando dupla con Enrique del Cerro.
Después de Néstor Villega vigila y de un primer ciclo de teatro universal en el que se presentaron grandes clásicos como yerma, Don Juan tenorio, Otelo y Crimen y castigo la pareja integrada por Cibrian y Campoy estrenan una comedia familiar. Con reminiscencias de Yo quiero a Lucy, Como te quiero Ana logró tener una indisimulable sabor local, Cada miércoles a las 9 de la noche, el programa escrito por Abel Santa Cruz, que debuta en teve y la dirección de Juan Manuel Fontanalans, abría una ventanita a la vida de unos recién casado con características prototípicas. Él es un joven médico y ella su esposa un ama de casa. Juntos viven mil incidencias propias de la vida diaria, acompañados por sus suegros y hasta por un loro. El envió reunía además a la madre de Cibrian en la vida real, pepita Meliá, con edad de hijo Raúl Risso hacía de padre y a cargo de otro papel estaba la verdadera hermana de Ana María, Carmen Campoy.

Juan José Migues y Fernanda Mistral armaron un teleteatro con el que obtuvieron suceso: El hombre de aquella noche. De aquellos días los protagonistas recuerdan que los productores obligaban a Miguez a trasladar desde su casa platos, cubiertos manteles y otros elementos para completar la escenografía.
Otro de los teleteatros más famosos de este año fue La Telefamilia. Este era un intento de mostrar a la familia reunida frente al televisor viendo como si fuera un espejo, los problema y realizaciones cotidianas de otra familia. Estaba interpretada por Vicente Ariño, Margarita Corona, Tincho Zabala,Lolita Torres, Alma Veléz y Miguel Dante. Era una familia con sus pequeños grandes problemas, decía la promoción de prensa de este ciclo que volvió a mostrar algo que ya había sucedido en la radio, en donde todavía arrasaban las historias de los Pérez García: la fuerza y eficacia de una familia como vehículo de emociones y sentimientos. En La Telefamilia los directores supieron cómo combinar un retrato tierno u reconocible con una idea audaz. Integraron en el elenco a un chiquito de meses, que en la ficción había sido abandonado en la puerta de la casa de la Telefamilia, con la idea de asistir en tiempo real su crecimiento mientras durara este teleteatro.
Aquí no encontramos al prototipo de galán bien definido ya que lo que era primordial era mostrar la historia de la familia y además la inclusión de este pequeño bebé hacia que muchas de las cosas que transcurrían sean a su alrededor.

En marzo Raúl Risso protagonizo Todo el año es Navidad. Es un tierno teleteatro escrito por Horacio Meyrialle. La trama imaginada por Mayrialle y cuya idea interesó acá la televisora de los Estados Unidos y Europa se basaba en la figura de Claus, un hombre que vivía en este planeta pero que tenía poderes como para volver reales los sueños y deseos de las personas. El origen de programa fue el unitario sobre la navidad emitido a fines de 1955. El capitulo que Meyrialle entregó para cuatro autores y Navidad llamo tanto la atención que muy pronto fue transformado en ciclo independiente. La secuela que tenía como protagonistas al viejo Santa duró cinco años y también se hizo en radio y cine. Pensado para golpear en el corazón , emotivo, sentimental, Todo el año es Navidad tuvo éxito porque supo describir, gracias a unas convincentes actuaciones y realización las ilusiones de los seres comunes.

Las revistas Primera Plana y Confirmado y el diario La Razón son las principales fuentes de versiones en este sentido. Huelgas como la que realizan los recolectores de residuos en Buenos Aires y la actitud cada vez más dura de la C.G.T. aumentan el malestar general.

Mucho de los artistas que se resistían a acercarse a la televisión lo hacen en 1959. quizá también porque la aparición de los tres nuevos canales esta confirmada y nadie se quiere quedar afuera. Teleprogramas Argentinos produce, a lo grande, contratando los estudios de con Lumiton, el ciclo más admirado del año: obras de Arthur Miller interpretadas por Pedro López Lagar. El famoso actor español, que había llegado por primera vez a la Argentina en 1936 como integrante de la compañía Margarita Xirgu y que a esta altura era ya un veterano del cine y del teatro, acababa de protagonizar Panorama desde el puente , y ahora inauguraba su protagónico en televisión con una versión de la misma pieza. Otro grandes del teatro español radicado en Buenos Aires, tal los casos de Lola Membrives y Amalia Sánchez Ariño, también aparecen en pantalla con obras chicas y grandes del repertorio hispano, como La Malquerida y la Cigüeña dijo sí. Por su parte, Narciso Ibáñez Menta continúa estremeciendo a la teleplatea con obras de terror. Pero también los clásicos argentinos tienen su espacio. Se realiza una adaptación para televisión del poema de José Hernández “ el Martín Fierro”, con puesta en escena de Orestes Caviglia e interpretación de otro uruguayo, Santiago Gómez Cou, con Santiago Arrieta como el Viejo Vizcacha.
Historia de jóvenes. En una mesa de confitería del Barrio Norte en donde solían reunirse Osvaldo Dragún, David Stivel, Emilio Alfaro , el productor Marcelo Simonetti conciben este teleteatro que con aire de inconformismo abordan temáticas cotidianas. Pronto se fueron incorporando actores como Luis Medina castro, Jorge Rivera López y Norma Aleandro, entre otros. Pero las historias de jóvenes que podían contar estos artistas eran de desdicha.
Los mediodías del domingo con libro de Ariel Cortazzo, Irma córdoba, Enrique Serrano y Osvaldo Miranda reproducen lo mismo que sucede en millones de hogares. El ciclo es un éxito y se llama Mi marido y mi padrino.
Abel Santa Cruz estrena en televisión Que mundo de juguete, Rodolfo Salerno y Luis Tasca secundan a Beatriz Taibo. Era la historia de dos hermanas huérfanas . La mayor criaba a la chiquita mientras se ganaba la vida como empleada de una juguetería, cuyo dueño era Luis tasca.

DECADA DEL 60
Comienza la competencia, y se inauguran nuevos canales, todos ellos de capitales privados.
- El 9 de junio de 1960, Canal 9 (del que en 1963 se hará cargo Alejandro Romay)
- El 1 de octubre de 1960, Canal 13
- El 21 de julio de 1961, Canal 11.
Y con la competencia llegan las mediaciones de audiencias. Rating, share, segmento, universo comienzan a ser términos muy utilizados en el medio.
Por otra parte, en estos años aparece el videotape. Este permite grabar programas y que ya no sea todo en vivo. (5 capítulos podías grabarse en un día) Algunos decían que esto le quitaba naturalidad a las transmisiones, otros destacaban como ventaja la posibilidad de volver hacia atrás la cinta cuando se equivocaban
La Asociación Argentina de Actores y los canales firman una serie de convenios en esos tiempos, por los que se ponen pautas más claras en cuanto a los contratos y se logran mejores sueldos. Las figuras de la TV alcanzan mayor popularidad y se empiezan a conocer sus vidas privadas. Los diarios ya tiene una sección especializada en la tele.
En materia de programación en la década del 60 se destacan: Las Obras Maestras del Terror de Narciso Ibáñez Menta, los programas de humor de Pepe Biondi, los ciclos musicales juveniles como “El Club del Clan”, las telenovelas de Alberto Migré, los “Sábados Circulares” de Nicolás Mancera que dan inicio al auge de los programas ómnibus (de 5 o 6 horas de duración) y las series americanas como “Bonanza”, el “Súper Agente 86”, “Lassie”, etc. Es también la década de inicio de algunos clásicos de la historia de este medio. En 1966 nace “Telenoche” y en 1968 los Almuerzos de Mirtha Legrand
El 25 de junio de 1966 se inaugura un nuevo canal: Tevedós La Plata. Desde un principio tiene problemas técnicos, ya que sus equipos de baja frecuencia impiden ver claramente la señal. A pesar de esto, son los que adquieren los derechos para la transmisión del Mundial de 1966, que ya en otras partes del mundo logra verse en colores.
Aparecen también nuevos canales en el interior, cuya programación está constituida fundamentalmente de enlatados traídos de la Capital Federal.
Por su lado, la radio va recuperando poco a poco su lugar con la aparición de las radios portátiles y los transmisores.
En 1969 se instala la primera estación para transmisiones vía satélite en Balcarce (Bs. As.) “Lo que ocurre allá se puede ver acá”. Es así como asistimos por TV al momento de la llegada del hombre a la Luna.
Características de los galanes
Segunda década de la televisión argentina y parece que hay cambios, pero aun no son muy bien definidos. Esta época se caracteriza por la continua de muchos de los programas de la década anterior y obviamente han surgido nuevos. Con respecto a los galanes no han cambiado en nada en relación con los 50, si han aparecido en mayor cantidad pero de manera disimulada pequeños galanes, obviamente son sus primeros pasos e imitan en todos los casos a los galanes protagonistas. Adriana Bruno, periodista de Clarín especializada en telenovelas dice: "la protagonista siempre era la mujer y el galán acompañaba”. Pero hay un programa que hay que destacar, por ser diferente a todos no en su estructura sino en su composición. Me refiero a Cuatro Hombres para Eva este fue el primer teleteatro hecho por hombres y fue el primero en comenzar a explotar otros caminos. Antes de Cuatro Hombres para Eva los teleteatros en su mayoría destinaban el protagonismo a la mujer de la tira o sea a la heroína, pero aquí no , hay cuatro protagonistas y son todos hombres. Aquí se vieron cosas nunca vistas, ya que se contaba la realidad de las vidas de los hombres.
A fines de los 60 se produce un nuevo golpe militar en Argentina. Esto afecta el manejo de los medios y se das inicio a una etapa de censura a algunos programas y publicidades.
*1960

Ciclo de fuerte realismo e impacto en el que se combinan realidad y ficción.
En su cuarto año en el aire Todo el año es Navidad entraba en una etapa de lógica de declinación. Eran criticadas hasta por su propio autor, por desparejas, las escenas que realizaba Raúl Risso . Y otro teleteatro de Mayrialle, El alma de un buzón ( una idea muy interesante ; la ficción descubría el camino no revelado o inesperado de una carta) se convirtió en objeto de queja de los televidentes, porque su contenido era demasiado amargo y duro.

DECADA DEL 70
Cada vez son más las personas que tiene la posibilidad de adquirir un televisor. Por esto la programación también se va abriendo hacia clases de menos recursos que constituían una audiencia aún no explotada. Así surgen ciclos como “Los Campanelli”, que muestran la vida y las costumbres de una familia humilde.
Se inicia también el debate, que cada tanto resurge, acerca de sí la finalidad de la televisión es el entretenimiento o la cultura.
Se crea el Comité Federal de Radiodifusión que establece pautas para la programación y también limita el tiempo de tanda publicitaria que ese emite por hora.
La política llega a la televisión con las campañas presidenciales para las elecciones de 1973, por las que el Gral. Perón llega por tercera vez al poder.
Para esa época se declaran vencidas las licencias para el manejo privado de los canales 9, 11 y 13, y se decide abruptamente no renovarlas. A pesar de que los viejos dueños de los canales inician procesos judiciales, se da por finalizada esa etapa de televisión privada.
El Estado se hace cargo de los canales y coloca al frente de ellos a interventores. Comienza una fuerte discusión sobre el manejo de los medios y los gremialistas apoyan la estatización. Finalmente Isabel Perón amplía la intervención estatal.
En esta época también hay “listas negras” de actores y periodistas, quienes no pueden trabajar en el medio.
Ésta fue una época bastante comprometida y dura para la mayoría de todos los argentinos que la vivieron. Se produjeron actos de violencia e injusticia que marcaron para siempre la historia de los ciudadanos, y no solamente para aquellos a los que les tocó vivir en esa década, sino también para todas las generaciones posteriores, las cuales serán las encargadas de que esos terribles actos cometidos no sean olvidados.
En 1976 se produce el Golpe Militar y comienza la época conocida como Proceso de Reorganización Nacional. Nuevos interventores, esta vez militares, llegan a los canales y elaboran nuevas listas negras y tijeretazos a la programación. Los autores escriben con seudónimo y aparece la figura del “asesor literario”, encargado de chequear los libros de los programas que se iban a emitir para controlar su contenido.
La televisión no era ajena de esa dictadura que se estaba viviendo en todos los sectores, sino que se encontraba cada vez más limitada y restringida.
Hacia fines de los 70 llegan las “máquinas de mirar”. Son las grabadoras portátiles de cinta magnética, más cómodas y más livianas. Estas dan inicio a la llegada del videocasete
En 1976 nace el proyecto “Argentina 78 Televisora SA”. El objetivo de la misma era trabajar para lograr las transmisiones a color y decidir que sistema adoptar para esto.
También se encarga de la construcción del Centro de Producción Bs. As., en Figueroa Alcorta y Tagle, que será luego ATC.
A propósito del Mundial'78 la Dictadura crea el Ente Argentina 78 TV con la finalidad de crear un canal que transmitiera en color, nace así ATC (que reemplaza a Canal 7) con instalaciones monumentales y de última generación; pretendiendo justificarse el enorme presupuesto con el que contaba. Sin embargo, si bien logra transmitirse a color para el exterior, son pocos los que lo puede ver en nuestro país ya que los aparatos no estaban preparados para esto.
Finalmente, por la ley 21895 se adopta para el color el sistema PAL (alemán) norma N y Hitachi comienza a fabricar en Argentina los primeros televisores color, ya que los aparatos blanco y negro no pueden transformarse.
Pero hablando específicamente de las telenovelas a lo largo de ésta época y de los galanes que las protagonizaban, podemos notar que a lo largo de la misma se produjeron innumerables éxitos, los cuales llevaron, en muchos casos, a la fama a muchos de los protagonistas.
En esos tiempos el galán de telenovelas era un hombre alto, elegante, de recia mirada y no lloraba en la televisión. Se mostraba como una persona ajena a las sensaciones, al cual las emociones no lo afectaban y tampoco eran capaces de hacer alguna demostración con respecto a sus sentimientos, ya que preferían mantenerlos ocultos.
Las telenovelas van ganando espacio televisivo "copan" la franja horaria de la tarde y de la noche que tiene en Alberto Migré al padre de éxitos como " Rolando Rivas, Taxista", "Pobre Diablo", " Dos a quererse", "Piel naranja", "Pablo en nuestra piel". Entre otras telenovelas exitosas podemos recordar "Estación Retiro", "Me llaman Gorrión", "Papá Corazón (que tiene por protagonista a una actriz de corta edad: Andrea del Boca), "Malevo", "Un mundo de 20 veinte asientos", "Carmiña". De este modo nuevos actores y actrices adquieren protagonismo tele: Claudio García Satur, Arturo Puig, Rodolfo Bebán (que ya era el "galán" a fines de los sesenta), Claudio Levrino, Alberto Martín, Arnaldo André; y actrices como Soledad Silveyra, Thelma Biral, Beatriz Taibo, Gabriela Gili, María de los Ángeles Medrano.
Las telenovelas según pasan los años:
*1970:
En la Capital Federal y en veintidós partidos urbanos ya hay 1.971.500 televisores. Es decir que cada vez hay mas personas que tenían la posibilidad de adquirir dichos aparatos, por lo tanto hay cada vez más audiencia.
Con respecto a las telenovelas, el formato de treinta minutos y una acotada cantidad de capítulos permiten que las historias se renueven y los rubros protagónicos le pongan el cuerpo a distintos galanes, a diversas y sufridas mujeres y a antagonistas varios.
El camino abierto por “Simplemente María” insinúa que el género, adorado por la audiencia, absolutamente popular y también castigado por la crítica, puede tener una proyección diferente.
Las largas tardes abocadas al melodrama le cuestan a los canales entre dos y tres millones de pesos, sin sumar los costos técnicos de puesta en el aire.
Son tiempos en los cuales los galanes se muestran de maneras rudas, varoniles. Son ellos los que llevan adelante la historia, acompañados por una protagonista que se ve como sometida a él.

*1972:
Los teleteatros han sido desplazados. La siesta y las tardes en los canales buscan y provocan otro tipo de emociones en la audiencia. Las pasiones amorosas resultan lentas para el vértigo que pide la información. Todo admite un enfoque periodístico.
Frente a tan notorio cambio, la revista Antena entrevista a los principales autores de telenovela bajo el título alarmista de “Decadencia y crisis en los teleteatros”. Nené Cascallar asegura que es importante una renovación ya que terminaron escribiendo “para el servicio doméstico, no salimos del romance de la mucamita con el señor rico”.
Alberto Migré asegura que hoy los noticieros, con los dramas que exhiben, sacian por completo las emociones que antes se buscaban en las tiras. Para Delia González Márquez se trata de una moda: hablar mal del género.
“Hay un cierto tipo de teleteatro que ya no convence, dice Elsa Martínez, es el que invita a sentirse a la gente simplemente cómoda en la fantasía. Nadie quiere historias de magnates si de pronto no sabe que es lo que va a comer mañana”.
Todo no afecta la imagen del galán. Como dice Elsa Martínez, a nadie le importa ver historias demasiado fantasiosas, ya que están preocupados por problemas importantes en su vida. Aunque se muestren historias más reales, que sean más cercanas a la vida de cualquier televidente, la imagen del galán sigue ,ateniéndose en una postura ruda, dura y rígida.
Por primera vez el argentino quiere verse palpar sus problemas. Frente a este hecho concreto los autores sufren la limitación de no poder tratar temas demasiado fantasiosos, lo cual los obliga a encasillarse.
Ese mismo año, Migré lanza al aire dos propuestas: “Un extraño en nuestras vidas” y “Rolando Rivas taxista”, con Claudio García Satur y Soledad Silveyra como cabeza del elenco. Rolando... se convierte en un boom y marca un antes y un después para las telenovelas. Acapara la atención con un rating de 28.4 puntos, promedio.
Por primera vez para una telenovela, Rivas pone la atención en exteriores, establece un vínculo con la actualidad como nunca antes.
Según Migré, lo que recupera Rolando... es la novela argentina, ocurre en San Juan y Boedo, la callecita de su casa era Oruro y la gente la reconocía. Pero lo fundamental es que era un personaje de todos los días como un taxista. Ésta es una de las razones por las cuales esta fue una delas novelas que rompió con todo lo anterior. Además el galán era presentado como alguien un poco más accesible (por ser un taxista, un personaje que uno puede encontrarse a la vuelta de su casa), más parecido al hombre común.
Rolando...demuestra que el teleteatro no está en crisis.

*1976:
La televisión cumple veinticinco años de vida y para muchos sigue llenando una cuenta deudora. Falta educación, cultura, servicio público. Sobran entretenimientos y teleteatros. Y a propósito de éste género heredado de la radio se dice: “Resulta evidente que ciertos avances no son más que aparentes: entre el Teleteatro a la hora de té” y “Rolando Rivas taxista” median no tanto diferencias de análisis sino distintos volúmenes de producción. El primero contaba con dos decorados armados en los estudios de canal 7, el otro arrancaba cada emisión con costosísimas filmaciones en exteriores. Sin embargo en ambas se reiteraban algunas frases fatales de la televisión nacional: “Claro que te quiero bobalicona” le decía Fernando Heredia a María Aurelia Bisutti en 1958, y Claudio García Satur asegura su amor a Soledad Silveyra en 1972 con éstas palabras: “Claro que te quiero, tontita”.
Con esto queda demostrado que, aunque Rolando... fue muy innovador en algunos aspectos, el teleteatro desde sus comienzos hasta esta época seguía conservando su esencia y los galanes, continuaban prometiéndole amor eterno a sus enamoradas.
La imagen del galán continuaba rígida. Eso tampoco había cambiado con el paso de los años. A pesar de que el personaje de Claudio García Satur era el de un taxista al cual uno podía encontrarse en cualquier momento y en cualquier lugar de la ciudad, conservaba cosas del galán antiguo, al cual le gustaba mostrarse recio.

Un mundo... posiciona a Claudio Levrigno y a Gabriela Gili como la pareja romántica del año y retoma, de alguna manera, un motivo popular, tan popular como fue Rolando... Levrigno, galán indiscutible, interpreta a un colectivero cuyos desvelos amorosos sostienen el argumento.

· “Un mundo de veinte asientos” –Canal 9- Protagonistas: Claudio Levrino.

*1979:
Se viven momentos en los cuales los temas a tratar el los teleteatros y en la televisión en general son cada vez más acotados. Los libretistas se quejan y dicen que ellos dan en las medidas en las que se les permite dar en televisión, donde deben moverse dentro de límites muy rígidos: un adulterio no, un personaje no se puede suicidar y de las drogas ni siquiera hablar de ellas desde un punto de vista positivo, un hombre casado no debe mirar a una señorita soltera. No se permite salir del tema de la muchacha buena con el muchacho bueno también.
Pero a pesar de todo esto, y con un tema tan acotado, “Andrea Celeste” se presenta como uno de los éxitos del momento.
· “Andrea Celeste”- ATC- Protagonistas: Andrea del Boca, Raúl Taibo.
· “Los Hijos de López” –ATC- Protagonistas: Alberto Martín y elenco.
· “Se necesita una ilusión”- Canal 9- Protagonistas: Antonio Grimau.
DECADA DEL 80
El 1 de mayo de 1980 el viejo Canal 7 se transforma en ATC e inicia finalmente las trasmisiones a color. Luego se irán acoplando las demás emisoras, siendo canal 11 el último en adoptar el color.
Cómo adquirir un televisor de los nuevos se trasforma en el tema del momento. Mucha gente hace largas colas en las zonas de frontera para conseguirlos en los países vecinos. Surgen dificultades en cuanto a la conversión de los sistemas, y los técnicos electrónicos se transforman en figuras muy solicitadas.
El comienzo de esta década marca también los inicios de la TV por cable, cuyo primer impulso se produce con la creación de la Asociación Argentina de Circuitos Cerrados Comunitarios de Televisión.
También aparecen Cablevisión y VCC. Se inician en el norte del Gran Buenos Aires y se van expandiendo hacia la Capital. Acuerdan no superponerse las zonas e inician un tendido de cables aéreo y subterráneo.
El cable permite ver las transmisiones sin interferencias, y también que los programas no tengan tantos cortes publicitarias.
Comienza a desarrollarse poco a poco la modalidad de la TV por suscripción
En cuanto a la televisión abierta, sigue estando en manos del Estado y es una época de bajo encendido. En la programación podemos destacar algunas coproducciones con otros países, programas unitarios de contenido crítico al régimen vigente como “Nosotros y los Miedos”, y también los programas para recaudar fondos para la Guerra de Malvinas, cuyas noticias son seguidas paso a paso por la televisión en esos momentos.
En 1983 vuelve la democracia el país, y con el nuevo gobierno nuevas autoridades y pautas para el manejo de los canales.
En 1985, Romay recupera el manejo de Canal 9 que enseguida se ubica en el tope de la preferencia de las audiencias, y pone de moda los programas de entretenimientos como “Seis para Triunfar” u “Hola Susana”. También produce muchas telenovelas.
Para 1987 otro canal vuelve a manos privadas. Héctor Ricardo García se hace cargo de Canal 2 que pasa a llamarse Teledós.
El cable por su parte ya ha logrado desarrollarse más y se autoriza la recepción de señales satelitales del exterior que se incorporan a la programación de las emisoras de cable. La primera es la ESPN, luego la CNN.
Al haber más variedad de canales, y también gracias a la aparición del control remoto para los televisores, se difunde un nuevo fenómeno: el zapping, que nos permite “pasear” rápidamente por toda la programación que se nos ofrece
Los fines de los 80 nos encuentran en una crisis energética que desemboca en cortes de luz programados que llevan a reducir el horario de programación.
En 1989 se asiste a un punto de quiebre en la historia de la televisión argentina. El flamante gobierno de Carlos Saúl Menen impulsa la privatización de los canales 11 y 13, y por medio del decreto 578 se llama a licitación.
La misma presenta algunas condiciones: mantener un año al personal de planta de esos canales sin echar a nadie; pagar un 40% al contado y el 60 % financiado, y se pone una base de 4 millones de dólares para canal 11 y de 5 millones para el 13.
Se deroga también la ley que le prohibía a los medios gráficos ser dueños de medios audiovisuales.
A la licitación se presentan cuatro propuestas para el 13 y seis propuestas para el 11. Y finalmente el 22 de diciembre de 1989, en un acto encabezado por el Presidente de la Nación se hace la entrega oficial de las señales a sus nuevos dueños:
- Canal 13 pasa a ser Artear, en manos del Grupo Clarín
- Canal 11 se transforma en Telefé (Televisión Federal) y sus dueños son Editorial Atlántida (de la familia Vigil) más 10 canales del interior del país.
Se da entonces el puntapié inicial a la expansión de los multimedios.
Por otra parte con la Caída del Muro de Berlín comienza el avance hacia la globalización y la explosión tecnológica.
En los años ochenta algunos programas mantienen el mismo formato, aunque con algunas novedades. Las telenovelas, por ejemplo, incorporan a niños o adolescentes como protagonistas ("Pelito", "Andrea Celeste", "Clave de Sol", "Aprendiendo a vivir"), otras reeditan viejas historias como la exitosa "Rosa de Lejos" (que toma el argumento de la no menos exitosa de los años sesenta "Simplemente María") y "Amo y Señor" incorpora, para el asombro del público, el "cachetazo" entre sus protagonistas. Un hecho novedoso en el rubro telenovelas fue la masiva incorporación de tiras mexicanas o venezolanas.
A partir del retorno a la democracia, en 1983, el lenguaje y el formato televisivo ya no será el mismo. Un nuevo tipo de programas surge, con un tratamiento más fresco y directo de la información; en este sentido "La noticia Rebelde" (con Carlos Abrevaya, Jorge Guinzburg, Adolfo Castello, Raúl Becerra y el novato Nicolás Repeto) fue pionera. A ella se sumaron, "Semanario Insólito, "Cable a tierra", “Badía y Compañía”. Este nuevo lenguaje también se evidenció en telecomedias como "Mesa de Noticias" y "Los Hijos de López", "Buscavidas".
Fruto de la libertad de expresión fueron los programas unitarios con una temática más comprometida y profunda. Así surgieron "Nosotros y los miedos" "Compromiso", "Hombres de ley", "Situación Límite", "La bonita página", "Atreverse". Telenovelas como "Historia de un trepador" o "Contracara" también presentaron la realidad de un modo más creíble que las clásicas novelas. Hubo dos experiencias periodísticas que merecen destacarse, aunque su paso por la televisión fue muy breve "El Monitor Argentino" (dirigido por Roberto Cenderelli y conducido por Tomás Eloy Martínez y Martín Caparrós) y “El Galpón de la Memoria” (que fue censurada su segunda emisión por el COMFER en 1987)
Surgen muchos programas de entretenimiento, premios y de corte pasatista. Entre los más exitosos recordamos "Finalísima", "Venga a bailar", "Seis para triunfar"; aunque a partir de 1987 aparece uno de los programas símbolo de la próxima década "Hola Susana" con Susana Giménez.
Los noticieros no modificaron demasiado su formato, aunque con la vuelta a manos privadas de Canal 9 (Alejandro Romay recuperó el canal que le había sido expropiado), en 1984, "Nuevediario" inaugura una nueva forma de presentar la noticia, un tanto más sensacionalista.
Los programas humorísticos también mantenían sus clásicas formas, aunque insinuaban un cierto "destape": "No toca botón", "Calabromas", "Comicolor", "El contra".
Ésta década adquiere su mayor importancia cuando se recupera la democracia, lo que permitió mayores libertades en todos los aspectos, y también en la televisión. Los guionistas ya no estaban tan limitados con el tratamiento de los temas y acerca de cómo debían tratarlos (aunque la libertad todavía no era del todo absoluta, se podían tomar más atribuciones) aunque cabe señalar que esas libertades fueron restringidas innumerabas veces, a pesar de estar disfrutando de la democracia.
Las telenovelas según pasan los años:
*1980:
“Estación terminal” es el primer teleteatro que se emite en color en este año, en canal 9. los primero inconvenientes que sufren tanto los actores como también los técnicos con la llegada del color es que todavía faltaba hacer ajustes en la iluminación y el maquillaje.
Mientras los canales se pueblan de nuevos teleteatros y unos cuantos de ellos constituyen rápidamente un éxito, el COMFER recomienda a las autoridades de cada emisora no emitir más de tres por día. “Rosa de Lejos”, dirigida por María Herminia Avellaneda lidera los mediodía.
Otra de las novelas que produce un gran impacto en la audiencia es “Señorita Andrea”, en la cual Andrea del Boca, junto a su galán Raúl Taibo, consiguen el éxito esperado.

Para ser considerado galán no solo basta con tener una cara bonita y un cuerpo privilegiado, son que se tienen en cuenta cosas que van más allá de eso. Toda la belleza externa no vale de nada delante de una cámara si no se sabe actuar. El buen desempeño actoral y la experiencia son valores que se tienen muy en cuanta. Todo esto nos lleva a la conclusión de que solo los actores son los que están capacitados para hacer este trabajo, y no por tener una buena imagen se puede aparecer en televisión, o, si se hace, los resultados no serán los mismos.
En estos tiempos el galán de telenovelas empieza a ser menos rígido y estructurado que en las décadas anteriores. Ya se muestra un poquito más sensible y no lucha tanto por ocultar sus sentimientos.
La SIP elabora un estudio para regular la emisión de las telenovelas. La mayoría sale entre las 13:30 y las 21:30 horas; solo una ocupa la horario central de las 22.
La secretaría critica la temática general de las emisiones, orientadas, según dice, en una dirección contraria a los valores y principios familiares. El amor libre, el concubinato, el aborto el adulterio, el conflicto entre honestos y pillos, la frustración de los más buenos y los triángulos amorosos irritan la vista de quienes velan por la audiencia. El tema es que no sería nada de las telenovelas sin todos estos conflictos.
La SIP propone reducir la emisión sobre todo de aquellos que no tengan un “definido objetivo informativo” y pasar los más “problemáticos” después de las 22 horas.
Debido a todo esto surge un gran problema, la industria nacional se encuentra en una terrible desventaja frente al material que se compra afuera, ya que las restricciones no son iguales y el patrón es el mismo para ambas: el Estado.
La frase que se escuchaba entre los hacedores del género era: “no puedo mostrar el bien si no me dejan mostrar el mal”.
Ya que no se puede atrapar al público por el lado de la historia, debido a las innumerables restricciones que sufría el género, la idea es ir por el lado de los protagonistas. Es de esta manera que el galán empieza a verse como un hombre más sensible y comprensivo, lo cual hace que la mujer común (espectadora) se sienta más contenida por él. Esto es lo que produce el enganche entre el público y la telenovela, al margen de que la historia no diga mucho o sea vacía y repetitiva.

Es el año de la coproducciones. Una de las actrices extranjeras que fueron traídas al país para la realización de estos proyectos fue Verónica Castro. Su llegada provocó muchos inconvenientes relacionados con la cantidad de dinero que se le pagaría, entre otras cosas. Pero lo llamativo de esto es que para hacer las coproducciones se llaman actrices de otros países, pero los galanes siguen siendo argentinos. Se sigue eligiendo lo nacional cuando de galanes se trata.

*1983:
Una de las telenovelas que fue éxito en este año fue “Amor gitano”, protagonizada por Luisa Kuliok y Arnaldo André. Esta ficción fue importante para la televisión argentina porque marcó el regreso de este actor a la televisión nacional. Se necesitaba a galanas como él, que en esta tira supo desarrollar muy bien su papel, interpretando a un hombre que debe sortear una serie de obstáculos e inconvenientes para poder lograr estar con el amor de una mujer, a la cual eligió para estar el resto de su vida, y de la cual el amor es correspondido.
El gitano Renzo se enamora perdidamente de Dolores, una muchacha que tiene una situación familiar infeliz y difícil. Tras la muerte de su madre, Dolores queda sola en compañía de su nodriza y su hermano Humberto, un hombre de carácter débil. La pasión de Renzo es correspondida por Dolores pero el futuro de los enamorados es obstaculizado por un malvado ser llamado Rodolfo Farnesio, un hombre muy rico y poderoso, acostumbrado a obtener todo cuanto se le antoja. Farnesio pierde literalmente la cabeza por la bellísima Dolores y empieza a cortejarla para convertirla en su esposa.
Pero el corazón de la muchacha solo contiene un sentimiento de amor indisoluble para con Renzo. Farnesio no es el tipo de hombre que se da por vencido y se resigna y continúa su asedio para llevar a Dolores al altar. Se sirve de su propia hermana Georgina para que intente convencer a la bella muchacha y crea una situación que coloca a Dolores entre la espada y la pared, la difícil situación de su familia y una serie de dramáticas situaciones llevan a Dolores a un punto que se ve obligada a desposarse con el malvado Farnesio. Un destino cruel se ensaña con Renzo y Dolores...

*1984:
Éste es el año de los cachetazos. El primero en instalar la nueva moda fue el galán Arnaldo André y a quien le tocó la peor parte de la historia fue a Luisa Kuliok, que fue la encargada de recibirlos. Juntos protagonizaban “Amo y señor”, una telenovela que era un éxito.
Arnaldo André es Alonso Miranda, un valiente, recio y gentil hombre de dinero de puerto caliente. Un gran amo y señor con una alta posición social dada por el dinero y no por la estirpe, trata de apoderarse también de un tesoro muy preciado para él: el amor de una bella mujer cuya familia pertenece a la aristocracia, pero atraviesa un gran apremio económico.
Una pasión tortuosa que no conoce limites.
Alonso Miranda es un hombre que maneja negocios ilícitos, como el contrabando y el juego clandestino. La escena transcurre en Puerto Caliente, una ciudad no muy grande del norte argentino del Paraná. Miranda, estafa elegantemente a los millonarios tabacaleros y ofrece desinteresada ayuda a los mas necesitados.
Este es un claro ejemplo de cómo era la posición del galán en este año. Se vuelve al hombre recio y rudo, que a pesar de mostrarse comprensivo en alguno aspectos termina ganándose el amor de la mujer que eligió, domándola a sopapos. Los directivos del canal se dan cuenta de que cada vez que Arnaldo André levanta la mano, el rating sube. Y es por esto que estas escenas desgraciadas, para la vida en la ficción de Luisa Kuliok, se repetirán varias veces a lo largo de toda la emisión.
Por más que sigan pasando los años la fórmula infalible para el éxito parece ser siempre la misma, aunque de a poco valla habiendo pequeños intentos de querer cambiar y terminar con lo clásico todavía se siguen utilizando las mismas estrategias.
Por otro lado aparece una línea que solo tomará cuerpo varias temporadas después y viene de la mano de “Pelito”, una tira en la cual la acción se centra en las andanzas de veinticuatro chicos y los problemas y alegrías de la edad. Constructivo, divertido, muy lejos de las zafadurías que sobrevendrían más adelante , incorpora temáticas y espontaneidades que no caen bien en sectores conservadores, los cuales preferían “Señorita maestra”. Lo que trae consigo este tipo de telenovelas es la novedad de los “galancitos”. Ya no son los hombres grandes y maduros los únicos permitidos a obtener ese mote, sino que las generaciones menores empezaban a ganar terreno. De todas maneras, esto recién empieza y el boom vendrá una temporadas más adelante.

En la telenovelas se tratan temas como el engaño, tanto de hombres como de mujeres, prostitución, ambigüedades, relaciones amorosas clandestinas, mezcla de religión y sexo, entre otras cosas.

*1987:
Es la etapa en la que resurgen aquellos “galancitos” que no feron tomados muy en cuenta años atrá, pero esta vez con una propuesta más interesante. “Clave de sol” supone un hito y un casting valioso para futuros programas de la televisión argentina. Marca más de veinte puntos diariamnte y se mantendrá en el aire cuatro años. Allí se consolida el crecimiento de Julián Weich; Pablo Rago aparte de ese ciclo hacía el más importante de su vida, “Amigos son los amigos” con Carlos Calvo, y en su ceno se hacian conocidos (y novios) Cecilia dopazo y Leonardo Sbaraglia, que se proyectarán luego, juntos y separados, en protagónicos televisivos y cinematográficos importantísimos.

*1988:
Debido a los problemas internos que habia dentro de los canales privados, asi como también en los canales del Estado, hubo cambios en la manera de llevar a cabo la ficción. Alberto migré asegura que en este año escribió su mejor novela: “Sin marido”. Y dice esto porque sintió que ese era un tiempo de cambios en el lenguaje, podía decir otras cosas.
Una novela muy exitosa en este año fue “Amandote”, protagonizada por Arnaldo André y Jeanette Rodriguez. El argumento de ésta novela describe a un galán despreocupado, ajeno a involucrarse demasiado con las mujeres, aunque está a punto de casarse, pero engaña a su futura mujer, lo que demuestra que es un hombre al cual le cuesta establecer relaciones amorosas comprometidas. El argumento decía: Carolina es una muchacha venezolana que trabaja como camarera en un lujoso hotel de Miami. Allí conoce a Martín Arana, un piloto de avión argentino, seductor e infiel. Carolina es sensible y romántica, jamás ha conocido un hombre tan fascinante como Martín y termina perdidamente enamorada de él.
Martín regresa a Buenos Aires y olvida el romance con la muchacha. Pero Carolina no soporta su ausencia y decide seguirlo a la Argentina y allí descubre que Martín está a punto de casarse con Lisette, una dinámica directiva de una revista de modas. Con el tiempo Carolina conoce a Sergio, el hermano de Martín quien comienza a cortejarla. Paralelamente aparece en escena el verdadero padre de Carolina, un rico industrial argentino.

*1989:
Las novedades son pocas y solo un programa dejará un registro justificado en la memoria: “La extraña dama”. Novela protagonizada por Luisa Kuliok y Jorge Martínez. Ésta novela despega de lo común con profusión de exteriores, vestuario de la época, actores no habituales en el género y una historia fascinante. Es principios de siglo. Gina (Luisa Kuliok) es una muchacha de campo que vive con su hermano dominante y alcohólico, Doménico. Un día en el campo mientras recogía flores conoce un muchacho rico y apuesto llamado Marcelo Ricchiardi (Jorge Martinez). Ellos se enamoran. Doménico impide a Gina y Marcelo que se vean. Marcelo vuelve a la ciudad y debe casarse con Elsa, mujer elegida por el padre de Marcelo para convertirla en esposa de su hijo. Gina ha quedado embarazada. Se pone enferma y unas monjas la recogen. Tiene su hijo en el Convento de la Adoración. Es una niña a la que llama Fiamma (que significa fuego). Mientras tanto Marcelo y su esposa tienen una niña llamada Virginia. Gina se esta muriendo por lo que pide a las monjas del Convento de la Adoración que entreguen a su hija a Marcelo Ricchiardi. Marcelo lleva a Fiamma a una casa que tiene fuera de la ciudad y encarga a su nana el cuidado de la niña. Finalmente la esposa de Marcelo muere, puesto que tenía una salud muy débil. Marcelo lleva a Fiamma a vivir junto con su media hermana, Virginia. Mientras tanto Gina se ha recuperado de la enfermedad que casi la lleva a la muerte y decide seguir la carrera religiosa. Es enviada a Italia para sus estudios. Gina regresa 17 años después. Marcelo Ricchiardi vive con sus dos hijas Fiamma y Virginia. Cree que Gina esta muerta. No ha vuelto a casarse. El recuerdo de su amor por Gina se lo impide. Los amigos de Marcelo, Carlos no se ha casado y vive con su madre Valeria y Pedro se ha quedado viudo con su hijo Aldo. Aldo y Fiamma se han querido desde niños, sin embargo, Marcelo y Pedro han decidido que es Virginia quien debe casarse con Aldo. Virginia acepta con resignación la decisión de su padre pero en realidad ama a Carlos, hombre 20 años mayor que ella. Fiamma al enterarse que su hermana Virginia se casara con Aldo, se vuelve rebelde y decide tomar los hábitos para convertirse en religiosa. Gina ahora convertida en Sor Piedad vuelve al Convento de la Adoración para tomar el lugar de la madre superiora. Allí se encuentra con algunas de las monjas que la habían ayudado cuando era joven, entre ellas Sor Beatriz, una monjita buena y dulce que se convertirá en amiga incondicional y en la mano derecha de Sor Piedad. También en el Convento de la Adoración viven dos monjas perversas, Sor Paulina y Sor Sacramento que harán la vida de Sor Piedad miserable. Sor Paulina es envidiosa y solo quiere quedarse con el puesto de Madre Superiora del Convento de la Adoración. Al Convento de la Adoración llega Fiamma a estudiar para tomar los hábitos y convertirse en religiosa.
El papel del galán es esta vez el de un hombre sensible, el cual deja ver sus sentimientos. No tiene problemas en reconocer que está enamorado y que es capáz de hacer cualquier cosa por amor. Y por ese amor es capáz de esperar años hasta poder encontrarlo denuevo.
La imagen del galán se ve en esta época un poco menos rígida, se nota que hubo un cambio desde los primero teleteatros hasta las novelas de la actualidad.

DECADA DEL 90
Los últimos diez años del siglo marcaron para el galán de televisión un cambio estructural en sus actitudes y formas de seducción. Gradualmente fueron perdieron espacio los machos cabríos al estilo Arnaldo André -que hizo punta con la segunda parte de Amándote, suceso de fines de los ochenta- para dar lugar a los galanes caparazón, aquellos recios por fuera pero altamente tiernos y sensibles por dentro.
Heroínas de telenovelas como las encarnadas por Andrea Del Boca -Celeste, Antonella, Perla, Paloma, Mía- relegaron al galán a segundo plano. Casi a mitad de la década comienza a revertirse esa tendencia, con el lento pero seguro declive de la prolífica producción de melodramas con el sello Del Boca. Pero las producciones estelarizadas por atractivos caballeros -Gustavo Bermúdez, Gabriel Corrado, por nombras a los más relevantes- no alcanzan el éxito esperado, teniendo en cuenta la magnitud de las realizaciones.
Hacia fines de la década, los productores se inclinaron por actores que representaban a hombres más reales -por llamarlo de alguna manera-, más naturales en el gesto que los acartonados superhombres de otras épocas. Sin embargo, ese cambio coincidirá con una severa crisis del género -y de la ficción televisiva en general- que desembocará en la emisión diaria de producciones independientes de corte costumbrista, efectivas por su mixtura de géneros y sus elencos multitudinarios. Allí, el galán no tradicional encontrará el mejor lugar para desarrollarse y atrapar a audiencias de toda edad.
1990
Primera Presidencia de Menem
Con la llegada al poder de Carlos S. Menem, por primera vez en la Argentina, en ejercicio del sufragio universal, un presidente sucedía a otro de signo partidario distinto. Esto supuso un paso importante para el fortalecimiento de la democracia y reflejó la legitimidad que, contra la tradición, estaban ahora dispuestos a conocerse mutuamente los actores políticos.
Menem sumó a la legitimidad recibida en las elecciones el contundente respaldo de los círculos de poder empresariales. Y llevó adelante, en muy corto tiempo, profundos cambios estructurales.
Su programa de gobierno no desatendió los intereses de los sindicalistas, de los caudillos del PJ ni de sus bases electorales, que a esa altura eran más pobres que obreras: las privatizaciones brindaron oportunidades a un nuevo tipo de sindicalismo más próximo al “mundo de los negocios”.
El ajuste fue seguido de un fuerte incremento de los recursos , del gasto público y del consumo interno, motores de la recuperación económica que se vivió a partir de 1991.

Amándote II
La historia comienza retomando el final de la primera parte. Martín Arana (Arnaldo André) regresa a Mar del Plata junto a su amigo Paolo (Gino Renni) para tomarse unos días de descanso y tratar de superar su reciente separación de Carolina (Jeannette Rodríguez). Allí conoce a Clara (Carolina López) quien al principio será una mas de sus conquistas pero poco a poco la mujer irá ganado un lugar en su corazón. Sin embargo Lisette (Lupita Ferrer), un antiguo amor de Martín parece cruzarse en su camino. Entre equívocos, celos, encuentros, peleas y reconciliaciones trascurrirá el amor de Clara y Martín.
El elenco contaba con el venezolano Henry Zakka -número puesto en las novelas de Lecouna-, los futuros galanes Gabriel Corrado y Gustavo Bermúdez, los eternos secundarios Gustavo Guillén y Constanza Maral, bellas chicas del momento como Patricia Sarán, Susana Romero y Patricia Etchegoyen, un prometedor Marcelo Dos Santos (antes de hacerse manosanta) y una exuberante Julieta Ortega, rubia y con su silueta original.
Fue la primera producción de Raúl Lecouna de la década. Con el colorido de Miami, el indiscutible sex appeal de André y los libretos vía fax de Ligia Lezama desde Caracas, la segunda parte de Amándote introdujo elementos de humor y telecomedia, que le dio aire a las complicadas intrigas planteadas en el género intentando emular al culebrón norteamericano Dinastía.

Lautaro Lamas (Raúl Taibo) es un compositor consagrado de inmejorable posición económica, de un prestigio mundial muy bien ganado. Su vida transcurre sin mayores sobresaltos y vive feliz junto a su mujer y su hija.
Ana Oromí (Carolina Papaleo), es un poco la antítesis. Además de ser mucho mas joven que Lautaro, su vida ha sido un calvario. Hija de una familia humilde, soportó las iras de un hogar sin amor. La suerte quiso que en su camino se cruzara una dama caritativa que la rescata de ese infierno.
Así los días de Ana transcurrirán en un pequeño pueblito llamado Basualdo, donde esta instalada la institución que la rescata y reencauza su vida. Mientras, Lautaro sufre una verdadera pesadilla. En un accidente muere su amada esposa, y él, desesperado se entrega a la bebida, abandona a su pequeña hija, descuida su carrera y entra en el camino de la perdición. Su padre, Guido Lamas, -interpretado por Duilio Marzio- lo rescata de ese interminable infierno y lo interna en un centro especializado para la recuperación de alcohólicos. Casualmente dicho centro queda frente a la institución que ha salvado a Ana. Lo curioso es que, como están dadas las distintas situaciones, ellos dos no tiene la posibilidad de conocerse físicamente. Pero el destino, les permitirá entrelazar sus vidas a partir del hilo del teléfono y descubrir que, en base al amor que nace, sus pesares pueden quedar atrás y el futuro se puede convertir en un cuento de hadas.

Si bien la trama se basa en 2-5499 ocupado, la primer telenovela diaria emitida en Brasil, Pablo Sirven en su segmento del libro Estamos en el aire afirma que para llevarla a cabo Alberto Migré adaptó uno de sus clásicos radioteatros.

Cosecharás tu siembra
Cosecharás tu siembra cuenta la historia de Giuliana Spadaro (Luisa Kuliok) y Luca Vanzini (Osvaldo Laport), y la lucha de ambos para estar juntos en el sórdido marco de la mafia siciliana.
La figura central de la trama era el protagonista masculino, hecho que provocó las iras de Luisa Kuliok, laureada mundialmente por la interpretación de una falsa monja en La Extraña Dama. El productor Omar Romay no tuvo más remedio que acceder a los deseos de la diva y es él quien culpa a su debilidad del tibio éxito de la historia. Conflictos de por medio, así y todo fue la telenovela ganadora del premio Martín Fierro 1991 a la mejor telenovela.
Para llevarla a cabo se grabaron exteriores en las ciudades bonaerenses de Tandil y Villa Gesell y en Italia. Para el decorado se construyó una ciudad que imitaba a la Sicilia de 1930. El reparto incluía figuras de la talla de Lautaro Murúa, Virginia Lago, Jorge Marrale y Raúl Rizzo.
Fue emitida en Italia antes que en la Argentina, con el nombre de "Renzo y Lucia". En nuestro país se repuso en 1993 con formato de unitario.

Dos atentados terroristas
El 17 de marzo de 1992, una explosión sacudió a Buenos Aires. Un coche-bomba había explotado y hecho saltar por los aires a la Embajada de Israel en la Argentina y dañado seriamente a los edificios vecinos. El saldo fue de 22 muertos y más de 250 heridos.
El 18 de julio de 1994, otro coche-bomba destruyó el edificio de la Asociación de la Mutual Israelita Argentina (AMIA). Esta vez los muertos sumaron 86 y hubo mas de 300 heridos. En ambos casos, la respuesta ciudadana fue de absoluto repudio. Sin embargo, también en los dos atentados, las investigaciones, que implicaron a miembros de cuerpos de seguridad, se enredaron en un laberinto sin salida.

Antonella
Cuando Antonella (Andrea Del Boca) ingresa a la Mansión Cornejo Mejía, descubre turbias historias del pasado, dramas pasionales, corrupción, juegos de riqueza y poder. Dos diferentes circunstancias ponen a la joven frente al seductor empresario Nicolás Cornejo Mejia (Gustavo Bermúdez). Asediada por una sospecha, Antonella jura vengarse de él y urde un plan que sólo se ve arruinado por un agente imprevisto: el amor.
Personaje colorido a mitad de camino entre el grotesco y el drama, con Antonella, Andrea del Boca incursiona en los pasos de comedia lamentablemente tan poco explotados por ella. Cuenta con la ayuda incomparable de su muñeco Tadeo (Alejo García Pintos), que no duda en cobrar vida para auxiliarla con sus consejos. La trama se verá atravesada por el cáncer que padece la heroína y la hemiplejia del galán -un mujeriego y joven viudo- producto de un accidente. Aunque todo terminará felizmente, con casamiento campestre con novia en mateo y todo.
Se lucieron Luis Luque como Gastón Cornejo Mejía e Hilda Bernard como la abuela Lucrecia. Virginia Innocenti juega el papel de Miranda, la malvada novia del codiciado protagonista y Mimí Ardú es Raquel, el capricho convertido en esposa de Gastón. Humberto Serrano es Facundo, el padre de Gastón y Nicolás. En Osvaldo Tesser y Ana María Castell eran Abelardo y Amparo, los simpáticos sirvientes de la mansión. Osvaldo Guidi sorprendió con su mayordomo Arturo, quien para no asumir su homosexualidad se hacía pasar por Rebeca, una supuesta hermana suya, en un infructuoso intento por llamar la atención de Nicolás.
Antonella ocupó las pantallas de televisión de casi todos los países de América y también se transmitió en España, Italia, Egipto, Turquía, Arabia, El Líbano, Rusia y otros. Se repuso en Argentina en Febrero de 1999 con singular éxito.

La Elegida
Cuenta la historia de Diego Marín (Juan Darthés), un hombre huérfano que, buscado por la justicia, después de muchísimo tiempo vuelve al pueblo que lo vio nacer para descubrir la verdad sobre la muerte de su padre. La acción trascurre en un pueblo pequeño gobernado por Armando Montenegro (Tony Vilas), que es un dictador y manda eliminar a todos los que se le oponen, entre ellos a Leo Marín, el padre de Diego
Pero en el camino, el protagonista encontrará escollos casi insalvables y un amor, el de María Luz Montenegro - la hija del "dueño" del pueblo, Andrea Barbieri - que evitará el fuego de la pasión y el recuerdo del pasado que algunos prefieren ocultar.
El mejor amigo de Diego, Alberto -Ivo Cutzarida-, disputará palmo a palmo el amor de María Luz, planteándose el conflicto universal sobre el poder de la amistad y la influencia que una mujer puede tener para destruirla.
El trío de jóvenes protagonistas en ascenso fue una apuesta anticipada de Alejandro Romay, el cerebro tras la historia. Quiso aprovechar la repercusión alcanzada por Barbieri en La Extraña Dama -allí era Fiama, la hija de Gina y Marcelo- e imponerla como heroína. Lo mismo intentó con los galanes, de poca trayectoria y vírgenes en materia de encabezar elencos. La tira no alcanzó el éxito esperado.
Del elenco también formaban parte María Cristina Laurenz, Oscar Ferreiro, Juan Manuel Tenuta, Mauricio Dayub, Jorge Rivera López y Delfy de Ortega.

Micaela
Es la historia de dos jóvenes, que los une un amor prohibido y apasionado que sobrevivirá a una historia familiar terrible.
Sebastián -Jorge Martínez- es un prestigioso periodista que trabaja en Italia y que está casado con Claudia (Ma. Rosario Omaggio), una reconocida diseñadora de modas. Micaela (Jeanette Rodríguez), una joven fotógrafa que ha viajado a Italia a intentar abrirse camino, harás fotografías de los desfiles de Claudia y allí conoce a Sebastián. El flechazo entre ambos es instantáneo. La mujer de Sebastián es asesinada brutalmente y le deja a cargo a su hijo de seis años. Sebastián desconcertado por todo lo vivido decide regresar a la Argentina al igual que Micaela. Ella se reencuentra con su padre Antonio (Jorge Rivera López), que en realidad lleva una doble vida. De joven, el malvado Benito Morandi (Natalio Hoxman), abuelo de Sebastián, obligó al padre de Micaela a casarse con una de sus hijas.
Antonio que no pudo renunciar al amor verdadero que sentía por Lucia (Maria Rosa Gallo), madre de la joven, formó con ésta una familia en un pueblo del interior del país, a escondidas de todos. Ninguna de las dos familias conocía la situación que sale a la luz cuando Benito es asesinado, y al hospital acuden los familiares. Allí, Sebastián y Micaela que habían vivido un apasionado romance, descubren con horror que son hermanos. Se alejan uno del otro manteniendo oculto sus sentimientos. Pero lo que no saben es que Micaela no es en realidad hija de Antonio, sino del secretario de Don Benito, que violó a Lucía y la dejó embarazada. La verdad se conoce pero ya es tarde porque Sebastián se casó con una mujer que no ama, solo para olvidarse de Micaela. Pasa el tiempo y el destino se encarga de que el amor sobreviva ante todo.
Gustavo Guillén, Beatriz Spelzini, Roberto Antier, Boris Rubaja, Millie Stegman, Rubén Ballester y Emilio Comte eran algunos de los actores del reparto.
La telenovela fue grabada casi en su totalidad antes de ser emitida. Se la estrenó en 1993 en un canal de cable (Siempre Mujer) y luego pasó al aire. No alcanzó el éxito esperado, en parte por la falta de química en la pareja protagónica, que en la vida real no se podían ni ver. En su carácter de coproducción, permitió el rodaje de exteriores en Italia.

Soy Gina
El destino vuelve a unir a Gina (Luisa Kuliok) y Marcelo (Jorge Martínez) y la historia comienza cuando, aparentemente, han superado todos los conflictos, Gina y Marcelo se aprestan a casarse. Gina no tiene resuelta su idea fundamental: el Papa le ha dispensado sus votos, pero su conciencia la lleva a preguntarse si también Dios lo ha hecho.
Después del casamiento civil se dirigen a Italia donde el casamiento eclesiástico tendrá lugar en Roma, pero, durante el viaje, sobreviene la tragedia: el lujoso trasatlántico naufraga y el destino los vuelve a separar.
La noche del terrible naufragio otra catástrofe se ensaña con los protagonistas: su adorada hija Fiama muere en Roma al dar a luz.
Aldo (Gabriel Corrado), el esposo de Fiamma, desesperado cae en una depresión que parece irreversible. Marcelo será rescatado, pero su vista ha sufrido imprevisibles lesiones. Por momentos su visión se nubla, por momentos se pierde. Gina, por su parte, aparece milagrosamente en la costa uruguaya con amnesia total.
Soy Gina intentó ser la continuidad de La extraña Dama, e intentó reflotar su éxito, pero no lo consiguió porque la producción esta vez no fue de Omar Romay sino de Pepe Crousillat para Argentina y de Silvio Berlusconi por el lado italiano. Romay llevó el caso a la justicia, alegando ser el dueño de la obra audiovisual, pero no consiguió detener las grabaciones.
Al igual que la primera parte de la historia contaba con un elenco estelar, formado por: Ana Maria Campoy, Gustavo Garzón, Maria Rosa Gallo, Hilda Bernard, Lidia Lamaison y Henry Zakka.

El Pacto de Olivos
El 13 de diciembre de 1993, el presidente Menem y Raúl Alfonsín, representantes de las principales fuerzas políticas de país, suscribieron el Pacto de Olivos, que auspició la reforma de la constitución.
Dicho pacto se basó sobre un “núcleo de coincidencias”, que incluyó, entre otras reformas, la reducción del período presidencial de seis a cuatro años, con la posibilidad de una reelección y la elección por voto directo con “ballotage” (segunda vuelta) en caso de no alcanzar amplia mayoría.

Apasionada
Todo comienza en la mansión de la familia Velasco Santillán. Allí viven, respaldados por una gran fortuna, Etelvina Santillán (Susana Lanteri), Francisco Velasco (Carlos Estrada), su hijo Patricio (Darío Grandinetti), la esposa de éste -Inés, Verónica Ruano- y su hermano Martín (Mauricio Dayub). Patricio es un joven brillante que, a pesar de haber sido criado entre algodones, sabe como defenderse en la vida y afrontar sus conflictos laborales como abogado. Su fuerza interior se pone a prueba cuando Inés, su esposa, enferma muy joven de cáncer lo que obliga a los médicos a operarla y como consecuencia de ello queda estéril. Postrada por la debilidad física y traumada por su infertilidad, arrastra a Patricio hacia una vida sin color, gris y monótona. Hasta que llega una noche que le cambia la vida. Martín, el hermano de Inés, llega a la mansión acompañado por dos prostitutas y dispuesto a pasar una gran noche. El sexo, asociado al alcohol, lo hace entrar en un estado de total desenfreno que culmina en escándalo. Any (Alejandra Da Passano), el ama de llaves, irrumpe en la habitación junto a Etelvina atraída por los ruidos, dándole un abrupto final al jolgorio. En medio de la confusión, Lola (Susú Pecoraro), una de las muchachas de vida fácil, escapa escaleras abajo y se topa con Patricio, quien, confundido la empuja. Lola parece estar muerta. Finalmente, por orden del médico y para guardar las formas, la familia decide alojar a la muchacha hasta tanto se reponga. Y este hecho modificará la vida de la casa, sobre todo, la rutinaria existencia de Patricio.
El extraño hecho de contar con una novela protagonizada por Grandinetti -que luego se dedicaría casi exclusivamente al cine- y Pecoraro ya facultaron a Apasionada de cuanto menos, novedosa. Con Víctor Hugo Vieyra, Andrea Bonelli, Oscar Ferreiro, Claribel Medina, Boy Olmi, Carola Reyna, Gabriela Toscano, Tony Vilas y demás figuras.

En octubre del 93 Arnaldo André incursiona en la telecomedia semanal encabezando junto a Andrea Bonelli Gerente de familia, escrita por la exitosa dupla autoral Jorge Maestro - Sergio Vainman. Su personaje, Juan, hace del mayordomo de la casa de Lucía (Andrea Bonelli), y poco a poco irá ocupando un lugar más preponderante, hasta llegar a conquistar su corazón. Juan es la antítesis de sus personificaciones en Amo y Señor, El Infiel y Amándote. Hombre dedicado y práctico, llegará a la vida de Lucía para hacerse cargo de la casa que ella por motivos profesionales no puede atender, y hasta influirá en la crianza de los hijos.
Con Gerente de familia André se toma dos temporadas de vacaciones de la telenovela, el género que lo vio nacer al estrellato, y explota su veta humorística en esta comedia familiar y de enredos.

La Convertibilidad
La convertibilidad consiguió generar confianza a largo plazo. El país conoció cuatro años de repunte económico y fiscal y una leve mejora en los indicadores sociales. Pero esa confianza no se mantendría, ya que en 1994 la convertibilidad subordinó la actividad económica a los flujos del capital externo.
En enero de 1991 asume Domingo Cavallo como nuevo ministro de economía. En marzo de ese mismo año, el Congreso aprueba la Ley de convertibilidad.

Más allá del Horizonte
En la trama de Más allá del Horizonte se entrecruzan los lazos familiares y las relaciones amorosas (legales y clandestinas) en un impresionante cóctel que combina pasión, romanticismo, odio, rencor y no pocos desencuentros. La historia comenzó con la desdicha de la pequeña María Pedraza, a quien su padre Juan (Ethan Wayne) deja en manos de Encarnación y Manuel Olazábal cuando muere su madre Amalia (Amanda Sandrelli). Maria toma el apellido de la pederosa familia y hereda una hermana del corazón, Victoria (Viviana Saccone), y una tía, Asunción (Luisa Kuliok). Las hermanas se enamoran del mismo hombre: Enrique Muñiz (Osvaldo Laport), pero Maria se casa obligada por sus padres con Gonzalo Lynch (Gerardo Romano). Con él tiene una hija, a quien su espeso ordena hacer desaparecer y la sustituye por la que nació de su relación con Margarita (Verónica Ruano). Del romance clandestino entre Victoria y Enrique nace Catriel, quien es raptado y criado por los indios. El oficial entretanto, se casa con Rosaura (Virginia Lago) y adopta a Augusto, hijo de éste coma propio. Asunción Olazábal se enamora y se une al cacique Shanqué y la muerte de éste marca el final de la primera parte de la telenovela. Cuando se retomo el hilo argumental, en la historia transcurrieron 20 años y en la mansión Olazabal siguen María (Marta Gonzalez), Gonzalo (Victor Hugo Vieyra), su hija Lucía (Verónica Ruano) y Victoria (Patricia Palmer) con su hija natural, Camila (Viviana Saccone). Entretanto Milagros (Grecia Colmenares), verdadera hija de María, tradaja en un circo y se debate entre el amor de Augusto (Clayton Norcross) -hijo de Rosaura y Enrique (Antonio Grimau)- y el de Catriel (Osvaldo Laport), con quien finalmente se casa y tiene una hija, a quien bautiza Asunción en honor a la mujer que rescató a su esposo -a quien altura cree muerto- de los indios cuando era un niño. Augusto, que por esas cosas del destino vuelve a aparecer en la vida de Milagros -quien a su vez ya recuperó su identidad al reencontrarse con Maria -tratará a esa niña como propia y consigue enamorar a la supuesta viuda, quien acepta casarse con él y se compromete. Pero la boda nunca ocurrira. El propio Catriel, creyendo también que Milagros esté muerta, se casé con Lilén (Adriana Ferrer), una india que amó en su adolescencia y con ella también tiene una hija, a la que llaman Aylén, el mismo nombre denominaba a Asunción Olazábal cuando era niño. Camila, quien descubre su verdadera identidad, huye y se casa en secreto con Mariano (Juan Martín del Valle). Lucía, cuando muere su padre acepta formalizar su matrimonio con Pablo (Pablo Britcha).
Nano
Cuando Camila (Araceli González) tenía apenas 7 años presencia una escena violenta: su madre y su padre muertos y un hombre que la amenaza con una pistola. La visión del cuerpo ensangrentado y sin vida de sus padres producen un fuerte shock en la niña la que huye desesperada. Pasaron 15 años y Camila es una linda y graciosa muchacha que trabaja en una escuela para sordomudos. También ha quedado sordomuda producto del impacto de aquella visión de niña. Vive con Dora, la mujer que la ha crió.
Cuando su madre adoptiva muere, Camila va a vivir con Fiorella (Gabriela Bianco) y su familia. Fiorella tiene un hermano: Silvio (Mario Pasik) y a través suyo Camila conoce a Manuel (Nano - Gustavo Bermúdez) un ecologista propietario de un acuario y que adiestra ballenas orcas.
Huérfano de madre, Nano se ha criado con su padre, a quien no tolera por su forma inhumana de ser. Nano está casado con Rosario (Emilia Mazer) una mujer psíquicamente inestable que se volverá la gran enemiga de Camila. Nano no ha conocido el amor con Rosario y logrará encontrarlo cuando conoce a Camila. Queda eclipsado con la belleza de la muchacha pero todo resultará dificultoso cuando advierte que Camila es sordomuda.
Bermúdez no quiso que nadie lo reemplace en las tomas en la que su personaje sale de un piletón parado en la trompa de una ballena orca. El papel de Araceli fue escrito por Enrique Torres especialmente para su cuñada Andrea del Boca, quien interpretando a Camila cumpliría bodas de plata en la actuación, de la misma manera en que debutó: haciendo de sordomuda. Andrea no puede porque está grabando Perla Negra, y los laureles se los lleva Araceli al año siguiente a través del premio Martín Fierro rubro Revelación. Es por su comentada actuación que Araceli logra la atención de prensa y público, a pesar de colocar a Bermúdez como el protagonista indiscutido ya desde el título.

Inconquistable corazón
Gonzalo Guiñazú (Pablo Rago) es un chico rebelde que por enésima vez cursa el último año de la secundaria. Lo echaron de varios colegios por mala conducta y mal rendimiento académico. En el Instituto Mariano Aráoz no hará la excepción y le dará más de un dolor de cabeza a sus profesores, en especial a Mónica Ibáñez (Paola Krum), la profe de historia. Joven y bella, Mónica enviudó recientemente y es por eso que no quiere saber nada de relaciones de pareja, pero el huracán Gonzalo revoluciona su existencia y cambia su parecer. Entre ellos se interpone Charly (Pablo Echarri), profesor de psicología, mucho más estable y maduro que Gonzalo, hecho que atrae a Mónica.
En la trama se combinan la historia de amor central devenida en triángulo amoroso con problemáticas como el Sida, la homosexualidad, la relación padre-hijo, todos tratados precariamente y a la ligera.
Fue la primera novela protagonizada por Rago y Krum, y también la primera gran oportunidad de Echarri, quien como contrafigura casi eclipsa al propio Rago, hecho que ocasionó malestar en el protagonista. Sobre Charly, Pablo Echarri declaró a la revista Chicas: “Mi personaje es distinto a mí. Hace y dice cosas que yo jamás haría ni diría jamás. Soy completamente distinto, tengo otra formación...”
Inconquistable corazón fue una remake de una novela de los 60 protagonizada por Beatriz Taibo, en el rol de la alumna que se enamora de su profesor, interpretado por Guillermo Bredeston.

María Soledad Morales y José Luis Cabezas
El asesinato de la joven catamarqueña socavó el poder del “clan Saadi” y de otras familias tradicionales de la provincia, acusados por la población de encubrir la responsabilidad de algunos de sus hijos en el crimen. En 1998, Guillermo Luque y Luis Tula fueron condenados por el homicidio.
Con este caso nacieron las marchas de silencio, encabezadas por la religiosa Marta Pelloni, rectora del colegio donde había estudiado Maria Soledad.
El 25 de enero de 1997, en Pinamar, fue asesinado el fotógrafo de la revista “Noticias” José Luis Cabezas. Las movilizaciones por el asesinato fueron unánimes. Uno de los mayores sospechosos de este crimen fue Alfredo Yabrán, quien se suicidó en 1998.

El día que me quieras
Es la historia de Soledad (Grecia Colmenares), una muchacha nacida de la relación de Angelita (Alicia Zanca), una rica heredera con un peón de su hacienda ubicada en México. Doña Fernanda (Chela Castro), la matriarca de la familia manda a Francisco (Daniel Moreno), el capataz de su hacienda a eliminar a la niña que ha nacido ciega.
Francisco se apiada de Soledad y la cría como hija suya. Años mas tarde Francisco en su lecho de muerte cuenta la verdad a Soledad y le confiesa que su madre no esta muerta sino que vive en Buenos Aires encerrada en un manicomio.
Es así como Soledad decide partir a Buenos Aires en busca de su madre y el destino la cruza con Lucho (Osvaldo Laport), un hombre humilde, sin instrucción que trabaja como camionero. Lucho es hijo de una hermana de Francisco.
Lucho esta perdidamente enamorado de una muchacha de alta sociedad, Gabriela (María Socas). Por amor a ella, Lucho decide estudiar, mejorar su cultura y sus modales y la fortuna hace que resulte el ganador de un pozo millonario de la lotería. Logran pero el matrimonio resulta infeliz y humillante. Es así como el hombre repara en Soledad y comienza su historia de amor que deberá afrontar muchas dificultades para llegar a un feliz desenlace. Soledad encuentra su verdadera familia y resulta heredera de una gran fortuna, recupera la vista y se casa con Lucho.
Con Tony Vilas, Saúl Lisazo, Francisco Avendaño, Rita Cortese, María Rosa Fugazot, Pepe Novoa y gran elenco.
Esta telenovela comenzó a emitirse a finales de 1994, con Más allá del horizonte aún en el aire. Ante esta situación, Laport declaró: “Yo hubiera preferido que cada proyecto tenga su propio tiempo, pero el destino es el que decide” También reconocía que “me preocupa el hecho de saturar, de que la gente me vea todo el tiempo en televisión y se canse” Con respecto a su personaje, dijo: “Lucho es un laburante, un defensor de sus seres queridos, una persona que quiere salir adelante. La diferencia más importante es que él es bastante machista y yo no. Yo intento luchar por ser hombre y no un macho.”
En el día que me quieras, Grecia vuelve a interpretar a una ciega. El final feliz cuenta con un dato de color: Luis Francisco, Lucho, se casa con Soledad vestido de overol. Eso sí: con camisa y corbata. Un extravagante y precipitado final para una novela que no logró su principal objetivo: el mismo o mayor caudal de éxito de Más allá del horizonte. De esta forma Televisa realizó su última producción en Argentina.

Las Privatizaciones
La política de las privatizaciones, que incluyó a un centenar de empresas estatales, fue iniciada con ENTel, la compañía telefónica estatal, y se extendió a los ferrocarriles y a los canales de televisión que estaban en manos del Estado. El 6 de julio de 1990 se realizó la apertura de sobres por la privatización de Aerolíneas Argentinas, empresa que el 21 de noviembre fue trasladada a Iberia. También en el servicio previsional se estableció un sistema de jubilaciones privadas.
Otra de la empresas privatizadas fue YPF. Su privatización provocó un fuerte impacto simbólico. En 1999 fue adquirida por la empresa española Repsol.

Alén, luz de luna
La vida de Pablo Pineda (Gustavo Bermúdez) cambia por completo cuando al morir su madre, descubre que sus padres adoptivos le dejaron el título de propiedad de una cabaña llamada Alén, en el sur de la República Argentina. La ansiedad y la curiosidad por saber lo llevan a viajar para conocer la ubicación de la casa e intentar comprender. Pablo está separado de su esposa Isabel (Celina Font), que no se resigna y lo sigue a pesar del constante rechazo por parte de él.
Al llegar al lugar Pablo conoce a la escribana Elena Gallardo (Marta González) a quien recurre para hacer averiguaciones sobre la cabaña.
Paralelamente se desarrolla la historia de Fanny Odisio (Silvia Montanari), dueña de un prestigioso hotel, ambiciosa y sin escrúpulos que sueña con llegar a la gobernación de la provincia. Fanny es la madre biológica de Pablo, pero lo odió desde el mismo momento en que se enteró de su embarazo. Por tal motivo, se lo entregó a la fiel Celina (Chany Mallo), para que lo hiciera matar. Pero Celina no pudo hacer eso y se lo vendió a la familia Pineda.
Por otro lado, vemos la historia de Pedro Ledesma (Héctor Alterio), un hombre íntegro y sincero. En su juventud capataz de la estancia de Odisio, Pedro se convirtió en amante de Fanny abandonando a su novia Elena Gallardo, y siempre ignoró que la hoy candidata a la gobernación, había concebido un hijo de él. Además, por su culpa pasó 12 años en la cárcel. Hoy, 30 años después, Pedro decide regresar al pueblo de su juventud para intentar encontrarse con su antiguo amor, Elena.
Todas estas situaciones ponen a Fanny en serio riesgo para sus aspiraciones dado que con la presencia de padre e hijo en el pueblo (ignorando ambos este hecho) todo puede desmoronarse para ella. Por tal motivo no duda en pergreñar todo tipo de maldades para lograr que ambos se vayan del pueblo.
Fanny se volvió a casar con Enrique Hardoy (Humberto Serrano), padre de su hija Sol (Guadalupe Martínez Uría), y de una joven de un matrimonio anterior, Vera (la brasileña Vivianne Pasmanter) que se enamorará de Pablo.
De esta manera, en el mismo pueblo confluyen las vidas de Pedro, Fanny y Pablo. El odio, el amor y el suspenso se harán presentes para hacer a esta historia sumamente interesante y atractiva.
Con Silvana Di Lorenzo, Oscar Ferreiro, Maité Zumelzú y Ignacio Gadano.
Por primera vez Bermúdez alcanzó la supremacía absoluta en el protagonismo de sus novelas, dado que en Nano fue opacado por la actuación de su partenaire Araceli Gonzalez. Ninguna de sus numerosas heroínas le hicieron sombra al apuesto galán. Incluso se debió cambiar a la que finalmente se quedaba con Pablo Pineda, por el sorpresivo alejamiento de la actriz destinada para tal fin. Viviane Pasmanter dejó la tira porque no le pagaron cuatro meses de sueldo.
La telenovela fue íntegramente grabada en escenarios naturales de San Martín de los Andes, Neuquen, con un costo de producción de 7 millones de dólares. Compartió horario con Los ángeles no lloran, con la cual peleó cabeza a cabeza en el rating. Fue galardonada con el Premio Martín Fierro a la mejor telenovela y mejor producción integral del año 1996.

María Segovia (Susana Campos) acaba de salir de la cárcel después de cumplir treinta años de condena por un delito que no cometió.

El primero es poner en marcha el más perfecto y refinado mecanismo de venganza para destruir a Ignacio Linares (Fernando Siro), el padre de su hija y el hombre que treinta años antes, la abandonó a su suerte pues no quiso comprometer a su acaudalada familia de un escándalo policial. El segundo objetivo de María es encontrar a su hija Ángeles (Patricia Palmer), a quien creía muerta la nacer.
Mientras tanto, Ángeles a los que sus amigos llaman "la loba" es una humilde muchacha de barrio que trabaja en una frutería y es la que mantiene a su familia, que se compone por un padrastro, su hermano Quique (Boy Olmi) y una hermanastra que le proporcionará mas de un quebradero de cabeza a la joven.
Ángeles y Tito (Orlando Carrió), un carnicero seductor, simpático e infiel por naturaleza, son novios hace seis años. pero cuando están a punto de casarse, aparece Daniel (Gustavo Guillén), quién con la fuerza de su mirada y la nobleza de sus actos enamora a "la loba". Ambos viven un idilio secreto, pero meses después Tito lo descubre.
Justo en ese delicado momento, madre e hija se encuentran. Y María tendrá que elegir entre poner en marcha su más cruel venganza o recuperar el amor de Ángeles, su hija, a quien por fin ha llegado a conocer.
Con Adriana Gardiazábal, Eleonora Wexler, Betina O ' Conell, Eric Grimberg, Diana Maggi, Judith Gabbani y Alfonso de Grazia.
Aquí todo el protagonismo recae sobre las protagonistas femeninas, madre Susana Campos e hija
Tanto Alén como Los ángeles no lloran plantean un conflicto filial idéntico, dado que ni Bermúdez sabe que es hijo de Alterio, ni Palmer imagina que su madre es Campos.

* 1997
El surgimiento de la Alianza
En 1997, los dirigentes del Frepaso y de la UCR acordaron una alianza y lograron el triunfo en las elecciones legislativas de octubre, derrotando al peronismo en algunas provincias claves, como Santa Fé y Buenos Aires. De esta manera se consolidó como principal alternativa para 1999. A pesar de que lo intentó por varios medios, Menem no pudo lograr la autorización para presentarse en las elecciones de 1999 y lograr así su segunda reelección.
Telenovelas del 97
Durante este año la telenovela sufre cambios profundos que la conducen a un repentino y momentáneo naufragio. Los galanes tradicionales escapan hacia otros rubros: Carlos Mata conduce un talk show para la señal latinoamericana de cable Gems Televisión junto a Patricia Miccio, Arnaldo André encarna a un siniestro ex personaje de la dictadura en el unitario Verdad/Consecuencia.
Gabriel Corrado y Gustavo Bermúdez huyen hacia el formato de miniseries. El primero hace El arcángel con Paola Krum y Nancy Duplaá y el segundo Laberinto con la española Blanca Oteyza. Pablo Echarri tras el fracaso de Mía, sólo mía -donde compartió cartel con Andrea Del Boca- co-protagoniza la miniserie El signo junto a Rodolfo Bebán. Gastón Pauls, tres años antes galán juvenil en Montaña Rusa, intenta con Arturo Puig y Paola Krum sacar adelante la remake de El Rafa, pero no lo logra.
El reality show reemplaza a la telenovela, presentándose como una alternativa económica y mucho más fácil de realizar. Dramáticas historias de la vida real con tratamiento de telenovela son lo necesario para asolar la producción de melodramas en el país.
Comienza el reinado de Thalía en el mundo de la telenovela, con su tan mentada trilogía de las Marías: Marimar -con su ex compañero en Timbiriche Eduardo Capetillo-, María la del Barrio -con su supuesto novio Fernando Colunga- y María Mercedes -con el inexplicable galán Arturo Peniche-. La joven actriz y cantante mexicana logra eclipsar la estrella de la mismísima Verónica Castro, cuyo culebrón Pueblo Chico, Infierno Grande resulta un fracaso tanto aquí como en el país azteca. La acompañaba el tucumano Juan Soler, un ex rugbier que aquí participó como contrafigura de Gastón Pauls en la segunda temporada de Montaña Rusa y que encabezó numerosos melodramas en México.
Hombre de Mar
Típica historia de muchacho humilde que se enamora de muchacha rica. Fernando (Gabriel Corrado) trabaja en el astillero del padre de Florencia (Viviana Saccone). La conoce, se enamora, y siempre estará quien se interponga en el camino del amor, hasta el final.
Antes de iniciar las grabaciones de la tira, sobre su alter-ego Fernando, Corrado comentó: “De mi personaje sólo sé que va a ser un tipo duro, rústico” Además alegó que había dado por concluido su ciclo junto a Andrea del Boca, con el fin de la telenovela Zíngara, dónde no los acompañó el rating. Corrado también se negó a protagonizar una segunda parte de Perla Negra.
Íntegramente rodada en la ciudad de Mar del Plata, Hombre de Mar continúa la línea de Alén (hombre como máximo protagonista, locaciones naturales). Del proyecto participaron 250 personas, entre técnicos, actores y extras, con una inversión de 6 millones de dólares.
Participan Héctor Bidonde, Cristina Murta, Alejandra Gavilanes, Aldo Barbero, el español Roberto de la Peña y gran elenco.

Gasoleros
Hector Panigassi (Juan Leyrado) es un porteño, mecánico que alguna vez formó parte del elenco estable de Alta Tensión -en el disco estaba debajo de la T-, también supo conducir colectivos y ahora se dedica a arreglarlos. Viudo con un hijo adolescente (Darío, por Matías Santoiani) y una hermana a punto de recibirse de médica (Isabel, por Cecilia Milone), sus días transcurren en el taller junto a Bonzo (Pablo Rago), un joven a quien trata como a otro hijo, y sus amigos Tucho (Dady Brieva) y Líber (Rubén Rada). Con ellos se divierte contando viejas anécdotas y burlándose de quienes consideran sus enemigos: los taxistas. Roxana Presutti (Mercedes Moran) es una mujer que siempre vendió chucherías importadas y hoy llega a tener una flotilla de taxis. Es madre soltera de Alejo (Nicolás Cabre) y se casó más tarde con Jorge (Manuel Callau). Cree amarlo hasta que conoce a Héctor en una comisaría cuando sus hijos son detenidos por pelearse en un lugar público. Es un amor adulto que deberá dejar de lado la rivalidad que existe entre ambos por sus actividades y atravesará todos los escollos que se les cruzan por el camino con el único motivo de estar siempre unidos.
Felicidad (María Fiorentino) es la mejor amiga de Roxie. Silvia Montanari es Emilia, dueña del bar donde paran los tacheros Benito (Hector Bidonde), Chula (Verónica Llinás) y Vikingo (Alejandro Fiore). Madre de la desinhibida Sandra (Pamela Rodríguez) y de la novicia Luciana (Malena Solda).
En su primera temporada Gasoleros conquistó a la audiencia con su tono costumbrista, su poco tradicional pareja protagónica, el colorido de su galería de personajes y la hibridación de géneros. Durante la segunda temporada decae en audiencia, por un cierto agotamiento de la estructura de tira diaria, dada la falta de conflictos atrayentes y también por el cambio de autores. Aparece Matilde, la mamá de Roxie (China Zorrilla) y su fiel compañera Elbita (Valeria Bertuccelli). Tucho cambia su actitud de colectivero bonachón, eterno enamorado de Isa y pasa a ser un conquistador empedernido, como temprana antesala del Alberto Muzzopappa de El sodero de mi vida y más acá en el tiempo, el Rubén Jilguero de Los Secretos de papá.

Como vos y yo
Inscripta en el tono costumbrista de Gasoleros, la tira de las tres de la tarde cuenta la historia paralela de una acaudalada familia ensamblada y de una tradicional familia de clase media. Por supuesto que el cruce entre ambas será vital para el transcurso de la historia, y qué mejor que un triángulo amoroso para desencadenar el conflicto. Esteban Prol interpreta a un remisero y se convierte en el objeto de deseo de madre e hija, interpretadas por Claribel Medina y Eleonora Wexler.
Aquí un atípico galán conquista a una heroína un poco mayor que él, para finalmente desembocar en un atípico final: ambos mueren durante su luna de miel mientras duermen, por un escape de gas en la cabaña donde se encontraban. Como para variar los previsibles finales felices. De todas formas, el final es lo menos recordado de esta tira, que como todo producto perpetrado por Enrique Estevanez, cuenta con un elenco multitudinario y una multiplicación de historias paralelas. Rodolfo Ranni, Luisina Brando, Juan Palomino, Claudio Gallardou, entre otros.
Milady
Delfina (Florencia Raggi), Regina de Valladares (Susana Campos), Máximo (Gabriel Corrado), Federico (Osvaldo Laport), Chiara (Lucrecia Capello).
El fracaso de esta aburrida telenovela de estelar elenco se debió a que continuó cambiando el prototipo de galán. Corrado, Bermúdez y Laport son reemplazados por Esteban Prol, Fernán Mirás (en Chiquititas primero y en Verano del 98 después) y Pablo Echarri, con perfiles menos estructurados.
* 1999
El triunfo de la Alianza
En las elecciones para presidente en 1999, ganó con el 48,5 % de los votos Fernando de la Rúa (acompañado por su compañero de fórmula Carlos “Chacho” Alvarez”). Alvarez, dirigente del Frepaso, impulsó a unirse a la UCR y conformar la alianza para derrotar al menemismo.
Los primeros años del gobierno de Fernando de la Rúa fueron difíciles. El presupuesto acumuló un fuerte déficit y escasearon las inversiones. Se llegó, inclusive, a reducir el sueldo de los empleados públicos. Mientras tanto, la economía no se reactivaba y el desempleo seguía elevado.
En marzo de 2001 el gobierno lanzó un fuerte ajuste y luego nombró a Domingo Cavallo en economía. Esto ocurrió en medio de una severa crisis política. Meses antes, una serie de renuncias referidas al trámite de aprobación de la Ley Laboral había derivado en otra crisis de la alianza, que culminó con la renuncia del vicepresidente, Carlos “Chacho” Alvarez.
Telenovelas del 99
Buenos vecinos
La vida de estos personajes en Parque Patricios parecía inmejorable. Julián Pinillos (Hugo Arana) disfrutaba de una vida común y corriente, trabajo en su kiosko, dos amigos, una mujer perfecta (Mónica Galán como Mónica) y una hija a punto de casarse (Malena Solda como Jimena). Sin embargo la mudanza de Chini (Moria Casán) al barrio cambió de plano las cosas. Luego de separarse de su marido, la ex mujer de Ricardo Suárez (Héctor Calori), el corrupto presidente del club Huracán, se instaló en una vieja casona al lado del kiosko con sus hijos. Desde el primer momento comenzaron los problemas entre Chini y Julián: lo que debía ser un decente trato entre buenos vecinos se convirtió en el primer segundo en infernales peleas de enemigos. Julián y Chini mantenían enfrentamientos tan desopilantes que en el barrio comenzó a correr el chisme de que entre esos dos había algo más que odio. Por su parte, llegó también a Parque Patricios un joven de nombre Diego (Facundo Arana), un personaje misterioso relacionado con Ángel Pinillos (Juan Carlos Galván), el padre de Julián. A la vez, un romance a primera vista nació entre Diego y Jimena, la hija de Julián, y los planes de casamiento de la chica empezaron a empañarse.
Intento costumbrista de la productora de Marcelo Tinelli, el programa sobreviviría media temporada más, ya sin Moria Casán, reemplazada por Claribel Medina. Hugo Arana no ejerce como un galán de peso, dadas la cantidad de atractivas historias secundarias: el idilio entre tío y sobrina, el romance entre la peluquera Stella (Verónica Llinás) y el pastor Manuel (Santiago Ríos), la vida grotesca de Beto Marchese (Gabriel Goity) y los manejos de gángster de Cátulo Pinillos (Alejandro Awada).

Muñeca Brava
La Soledad es el antiguo nombre que figura a la entrada de la gran mansión, propiedad de la familia Di Carlo. Pero la soledad se respira en el ambiente, en el frío comedor que reúne a los señores de la casa, en los pasillos siempre silenciosos y fundamentalmente, en el encierro elegido por la matriarca de esta familia y en el misterio de una puerta siempre cerrada, de la cual sólo llega el silencio, apenas quebrado por algunos pasos amortiguados durante las madrugadas.
El casamiento de Federico (Arturo Maly) y Luisa (Fernanda Mistral) sirvió para dos cosas. Una, salvar a Federico de la quiebra y así poder los Di Carlo seguir representando un jerarquizado papel en la sociedad. La segunda, salvar el honor de Luisa y toda la familia Rapallo. Sólo muy pocos personajes llevan sobre sus hombros el peso de un secreto. Un secreto que los une… y los enfrenta.
En el convento, Milagros (Natalia Oreiro) sigue haciendo de las suyas. Como dice la madre superiora ¨Milagros es de profesión: traviesa¨, Millie es ¨varonera¨y ¨futbolera¨.
El cura párroco, reconocido hincha de Boca, la bautiza ¨Cholo¨, en honor al Cholo Simeone, famoso marcador de punta que brillara en Boca Juniors en la década del sesenta. Y como Milagros tiene garra para jugar pero no es ninguna virtuosa… y como muchas veces su pierna se estrella en la pierna de un rival, más por torpeza que por mala intención… se generalizará el sobrenombre.
A Millie le gusta bailar. Es así como con una compañerita del convento, se escapan para ir a una bailanta.
En la bailanta la pasa bárbaro y se siente en el paraíso cuando baila.
Millie baila y rie, rie y baila, y conoce a Ivo (Facundo Arana).
El jóven no asociará a la bella mujer que conoce esa noche con Carlitos, la chica disfrazada de chico que vende gaseosas en la cancha y estampitas en las calles.
Milagros llegará a la mansión y comenzará a escribirse una historia de encuentros y desencuentros, de besos y rechazos, una historia de amor pero con una gran diferencia: la Cholito es muy distinta a todas las mujeres que Ivo ha conocido.
El le robará algunos besos y ella le regalará algunas cachetadas. Milagros descubre que esos besos robados le gustan. Y un día descubre que está enamorada de Ivo, pero ese descubrimiento le costará muy caro, porque vendrá acompañado de otros, uno de ellos fundamental:
Milagros no es ¨guacha¨ como siempre creyó. Su padre vive, y está mucho más cerca de lo que imagina.

El nuevo milenio
Los primeros cinco años del siglo XXI trajeron consigo la gradual recuperación de la telenovela, el rescate del género tradicional -Yago, pasión morena, Soy Gitano, Padre Coraje- y ciertas variantes aggionardas -Resistiré, Malandras, Culpable de este amor- que dieron aire fresco a la producción nacional. En esta clave, Pablo Echarri y Juan Darthes se consolidan como galanes que capturan las miradas y el rating. Las tiras de horario central continuaron siendo protagonizadas por galanes no convencionales, y así lo demuestran Dady Brieva en El sodero de mi vida y Los secretos de papá y Miguel Ángel Rodríguez en Son Amores y en Los Roldán. Cada producción audiovisual confirma y refuta la hipótesis planteada en un principio: el galán definitivamente cambió su actitud de hombre recio por una más sensible y tierna, pero en la telenovela tradicional mantiene su postura de guerrero imbatible en pugna por rescatar a su damisela de los más variados apuros.

Amor latino
Dos historias de amor que conviven en un marco donde la comedia es cotidiana. Y también son dos los secretos que mueven el motor del drama. Amor, misterio, drama y comedia. Los pilares donde se apoya esta historia, cuya acción transcurrirá constantemente en Miami y en Buenos Aires. Y a estos escenarios se agregarán muchas ciudades del Caribe. Con el especial condimento del erotismo.
Los protagonistas masculinos, además de ser mujeriegos, son pilotos de una compañía aérea "Americana de Aviación" de la cual la familia tiene parte del paquete accionario.
Las protagonistas femeninas son la hija del nuevo accionista mayoritario de la compañía y su amiga. Por una travesura de una de ellas, sus roles quedan invertidos.
Una será la otra. La otra será la una. Los galanes se enamorarán de una pensando que es la otra...o de la otra pensando...en fin. Entre tanto equívoco lo único verdadero es... el amor que va naciendo sin que los protagonistas puedan impedirlo.
La acción se inicia en Miami. Allí, los hermanos Fernando (Diego Ramos) y Nacho Domeq (el cubano Mario Cimarro), son víctimas de su mayor debilidad: las mujeres.
En Buenos Aires, la tía Paloma (Dora Baret) intenta por todos los medios recuperar la presidencia de la empresa que acaba de escaparse de sus manos. Para lograrlo pone en juego un plan maquiavélico que incluye seducir a Leandro (Arturo Maly), su nuevo socio... y también casar a sus sobrinos, Fernando y Nacho con dos jóvenes herederas.
Leandro nombra a su hija Marina (la mexicana Ana Claudia Talancón) como presidenta de Americana de Aviación. Pero por el equívoco inicial para los hermanos Domeq y para toda la compañía, la presidenta será su amiga Rosita (la colombiana Coraima Torres) y Marina es la "secretaria" de la presidenta.
El novio de Marina, Leonel (Martin Karpan), se resiste al juego. Su objetivo es dominar la compañía y "usar" a Marina como trampolín para lograrlo. Decide apurar el casamiento. Y el destino pone en sus manos un gran "secreto" que Leandro siempre ocultó. Esa es una carta de triunfo que Leonel sabrá jugar en el momento oportuno.
Luego del deslumbramiento de Rosita por Fernando en un comienzo, ella descubre que el hombre de su vida es Nacho. Por él morirá de amor y le costará mucho ocultarlo.
En cambio Marina sufrirá un ataque de bronca contra ella misma al descubrirse enamorada de Fernando.
Por supuesto, Fernando y Nacho también descubrirán que las muchachas despiertan un sentimiento raro, desconocido para ellos. Obviamente pasará mucho tiempo y muchas cosas para que reconozcan que están enamorados de Marina y Rosita.
Intentando volver al formato del tandem Amándote, Raúl Lecuona intenta con Amor Latino obtener el éxito con un elenco proveniente de diferentes latitudes de Latinoamérica, apelando también al colorido de Miami. La tira no resulta exitosa en la Argentina, pero en otros países alcanza considerable éxito, y el la carta de presentación de Diego Ramos y de Martín Karpan para iniciar una exitosa carrera en Colombia.

Ilusiones (compartidas)
La Donna Baffutta es una cantina donde se pueden compartir tantas ilusiones como problemas y enredos amorosos. Es en este extraño pero original y decente lugar donde Félix Figueroa (Oscar Martinez) lleva a cabo su trabajo. El hombre, con 45 años y aún viviendo con su tía (Beatriz Bonnet), es un mago e ilusionista que todas las noches realiza un espectáculo para la limitada clientela de la cantina. Félix es excelente en su profesión, pero él insiste en que no es así. Es muy nervioso y obsesivo. Todo empeora cuando Nancy (Marita Ballesteros), su insoportable novia, le comunica que ha adelantado la fecha de casamiento. Félix realmente no quiere casarse con su pareja, pero no parece animarse a enfrentarla. Los principales conflictos entre el mago y la mujer empiezan cuando llega a la Donna Baffutta Caridad Guanarito (Catherine Fulop), una divertida y misteriosa venezolana que se convertirá en la nueva cocinera de la cantina, uniéndose así al equipo que es liderado por Basilio Javier de la Torre y Quirós (Patricio Conyreras), el encargado y amigo incondicional de Félix. En medio de estas historias, conocemos a Rafael Puntín (Nicolás Cabré), un veinteañero que sale de la cárcel luego de tres años y usurpa la identidad de Martín Fatone, un chico que iba a ser "acomodado" en la cantina para trabajar de peón. Aunque al principio él no se de cuenta, en la vida de Félix se cruzará otra mujer, pero de una forma muy distinta a la de Caridad: en este caso se trata de Maia Carregal (Julieta Díaz), una joven representante de artistas de varieté que no se encuentra en una buena posición económica y está obsesionada en contratar al mago para una fiesta de 200 invitados. La insistencia de la chica se enfrentará a los ideales de Félix, que se niega rotundamente a actuar en una fiesta, llevando a ambos a situaciones tan fuertes como divertidas, que, como no puede ser de otra manera, desembarcarán en el amor. Las ilusiones de todos estos personajes son aplastadas con la aparición de Laura Grimaldi (Patricia Palmer), la ex-mujer del dueño de la cantina que es ahora la nueva propietaria, y que luego de darse cuenta de la incompetencia de algunos empleados deberá analizar la opción de vender la Donna Baffutta. A la vez, Giuliana (Marcela Kloosterboer), la hija de Laura, queda flechada por Rafael, y al poco tiempo descubre que él no es Martín Fatone. Esta extraña relación unirá a Giuliana y Rafael, por supuesto, amorosamente. Diferentes historias, en un absoluto tono de comedia, que se unen tanto por compartir la misma escenografía como también la misma temática: las ilusiones pueden dejar de ser tan fantasiosas para convertirse en realidad.
Completan el elenco Juan Darthés como Mario Miranda, el mozo que enamora a Laura; Matías Santoiani como Claudio, el hijo de Basilio y Tomás Fonzi como Lucas.

Los buscas de siempre
Martín Giménez (Pablo Echarri) era un chico normal. Vivía con su familia compuesta por su mamá, su hermana Eugenia (Jazmín Stuart) y su padre Carlos (Arturo Bonín). La vida familiar transcurría feliz y tranquila hasta que se supo la verdad: Carlos tenia dos familias paralelas una con su esposa y otra con su mujer: Silvina (Luisina Brando) con quien tuvo dos hijos: Bárbara (de casi la misma edad que Martín) y Ariel (Matías Apóstolo), el más chico de los Giménez Álzaga. Por semejante noticia la esposa de Carlos se deprime y muere. Todos se mudan a la nueva mansión de los Giménez Álzaga. Bárbara y Martín viven peleando y no se soportan, hasta que descubren que todo ese "odio" no era más que una histeriqueada juvenil propia de un enamoramiento. A los 15 años Bárbara y Martín advierten que nunca se sintieron hermanos y hacen el amor por primera vez. Silvina descubre a Martín saliendo de la habitación de Bárbara y amenaza con contarle todo a Carlos si él no se va inmediatamente de la casa. Para proteger a Barbie y a su padre de la incestuosa verdad, Martín se va a vivir con su tía Titina (Ana Maria Picchio) y su abuelo (Tino Pascali). A partir de esta nueva situación Martín se ve en la necesidad de ser un "busca", y vende cosas en la calle para ayudar a su familia. Transcurren 10 años. Bárbara es la mano derecha en la empresa de su padre y está comprometida con Fernando (Nacho Gadano), un tipo tan ambicioso como maldito. Martín sigue vendiendo cuadernos y lapiceras por ahí. Bárbara y Martín vuelven a encontrarse para volver a vivir un amor incestuoso.

Primicias
Dos medios diferentes, la redacción del Diario "El Urbano" y el noticiero de televisión "TVSET" En el diario hay un director general Américo Baigorria (Juan Carlos Mesa) que acaba de incorporar como secretaria de redacción a una recién llegada de España, Verónica Amore (María Valenzuela).

"El Urbano" cuenta con un equipo de destacados periodistas, encabezados por Pablo Molina (Gustavo Garzón) como su líder natural; Fernando Álvarez (Pablo Rago) un muchacho con problemas de conducta; Cati (Valentina Bassi), una chica sin muchos escrúpulos; Julio Cesar Cameratta (Hugo Varela), un hipocondríaco consumado. El noticiero está dirigido por Antonio Paz (Arturo Puig), el gerente de noticias. Un neurótico de temer. Tiene dos productores rivales entre si, Victoria y Vitti. Paz, casado por tercera vez y en crisis con Mariana, tiene a su mejor amigo y confidente Carlos Armill (Pelusa, Raúl Rizzo), un gay sin complejos, es el conductor del noticiero junto a Alejandra Casanova (Florencia Raggi). Un notero aliado de Victoria (Gabriela Toscano) será el colega de Mina Carbonell (Araceli Gonzalez), una chica que se incorpora al noticiero, muy verde para el oficio, pero gracias a su fuerza de voluntad y a la gran ayuda de Manuel (Juan Darthés), su camarógrafo, lo logrará. Entre estos dos equipos de noticias se leen conflictos, roces, desencuentros, amores, que son la esencia del argumento de la tira. Con Pepe Novoa, Roberto Pettinato y Graciela Pal.

Siente que Orlando no tiene un buen vinculo con su hijo. No le sucederá lo mismo con Alberto que establecerá con el niño un vinculo afectivo que muchas veces reemplazará a la imagen de padre ausente. Y esto la meterá en problemas porque Alberto no es hombre de una sola mujer. Con muchas de sus clientas tiene una historia de amor. Sofía no para de trabajar. Además del consultorio de sexología que establecerá en el barrio, atiende el gabinete psicopedagógico de varias escuelas. A una de ellas concurre Anita (Jimena Barón), su media hermana, aunque ella todavía no lo sabe. Alberto es el mayor de tres hermanos.

Tiene una hija de cinco años a la que quiere recuperar, a toda costa, ya que luego de la separación se ha distanciado de ella. Esta imposibilidad del 22 de acercarse a su hija tiene relación con los abandonos que ha sufrido desde chico. El de su madre (Thelma Biral), internada en un psiquiátrico, y el de su padre, el comisario Falcone (Oscar Ferreiro), responsable de las brigadas policiales y a quien culpa Federico del estado de su madre. En el pasado del 22 hay un hecho que lo marcó a fuego. En un operativo muere su amigo y compañero. Al 22 se lo culpa de esta muerte. Luego de un juicio queda sin culpa y cargo, pero no vuelve a ser asignado a ninguna unidad. Su padre ha intentado por todos los medios lograr que vuelva a la policía. El 22 quiere volver, pero sabe que debe recuperar la confianza en sí mismo y sobre todo, la de los demás. Mario Falcone, al borde ya de su retiro, decide formar una brigada especial, capaz de enfrentarse a la corrupción dentro de las fuerzas policiales. Para esto, Mario recluta a los mejores. El 22 volverá a la policía formando parte de esta brigada especial en la que no faltarán conflictos, ni las historias de amor y odio.

Kachorra
Kachorra (Natalia Oreiro) es una chica de barrio, humilde y con escasa cultura, pero de gran fuerza interior, optimista, llena de ganas de vivir y de una alegría contagiosa; divertida, ocurrente y capaz de extraer recursos de manera insospechada para sobreponerse siempre a las dificultades. Con sus dos galanes, formara un triángulo amoroso lleno de pasión, conflictos y muchas vicisitudes, con vueltas de tuerca sorprendentes que, en los momentos clave, aportarán nueva fuerza e interés a la trama. Comienza con ella en la cárcel, injustamente acusada de asesinato. Se prolonga con su fuga y su llegada a la mansión de los Moravia, una poderosa familia de empresarios de la alimentación, con los documentos robados a otra persona y la necesidad de suplantarla, convirtiéndose en una impostora como la única manera de huir de la policía. Continúa con los difíciles comienzos en la casa de los ricos, donde siempre está a punto de ser descubierta y vive una situación de angustia y desprotección permanente, mechada con divertidos momentos de comedia cuando la inculta e inexperta Kachorra debe intentar parecerse a una institutriz profesional y de renombre que deberá cuidar y educar a dos adolescentes muy problemáticos. De esta manera, "Kachorra", transitara situaciones de amor y situaciones "de comedia", divertidas, humorísticas y apoyadas principalmente en la comicidad y simpatía de la protagonista desarrollando un personaje tan particular en una situación inédita como es la de ser una fugitiva, una impostora y a la vez, una heroína de amor.

Son amores
Es la historia de Roberto Sánchez (Miguel Ángel Rodríguez), un hombre solitario, que cree no haber nacido para convivir con nadie. Árbitro de fútbol, se ve obsesionado por las normas en la vida, como por el reglamento del juego. Cuando comienza la historia su transcurrir por este mundo comienza a cambiar. Su pareja lo abandona, y cuando se cree nuevamente solo lo invade la presencia de sus dos sobrinos. Porque ésta también es la historia de Martín (Mariano Martínez) y Pablo Marquesi (Nicolás Cabré), los hijos de la hermana de Sánchez (Cony Vera) que vienen de un pueblito del interior, y llegan a instalarse en casa de su tío con la meta de probar suerte y triunfar en el fútbol. Poco tiempo después se sumará a la presencia de los dos muchachos, la hermana menor, Valeria (Florencia Bertotti), que no soporta más la vida pueblerina. Acostumbrarse a un estilo de convivencia, bullanguero, caótico para un hombre rígido es todo un problema. Esto es lo que le propone la vida con la llegada de los sobrinos y poco a poco aprenderá a pilotearlo. Si esta fuera una comedia de tesis, diríamos que aquí se trata de probar que no existe un solo tipo de familia. Que hay familias donde hay un papá y una mamá, otras donde uno de los dos falta, y otras como ésta que la conforman un tío y sus tres jóvenes sobrinos que rondando los veinte aún tienen mucho que aprender. Del mismo modo nuestro solitario Roberto Sánchez aprenderá a vivir socialmente muy a su pesar. Y juntos irán creciendo afrontando los avatares de la vida y la lucha cotidiana hasta convertirse en una sola fuerza, unida por el amor más allá de los desacuerdos y las rivalidades. También es la historia de Lola (Millie Stegman), una mujer que resulta estar escindida en dos formas de ser. Por un lado es una eficiente profesional. Trabaja como partera con un obstetra estrella, y sabe cómo favorecer el buen llegar de una nueva vida a este mundo. Por el otro resulta ser la joya más preciada de su marido, corrupto dirigente del arbitraje Guillermo Carmona (Mario Pasik), un hombre que aún amándola mantiene cierto egoísmo que ella en un principio no llega a percibir. Halagada, atendida, y creyéndose enamorada, arranca la historia cumpliendo sus treinta años en medio de una crisis que no llega a comprender. Su reloj biológico le está marcando satisfacer algunas necesidades que poco a poco irá descubriendo. Y un mundo diferente se abrirá ante sus ojos cuando se tope frente a frente y se enamore de aquél ermitaño que como ella y sus sobrinos está aprendiendo una nueva manera de vivir.
La segunda temporada cambió la heroína. Pasó del refinamiento de Lola a la sencillez tornada tosquedad de Chela (Gabriela Toscano). El programa no alcanzó el éxito de la primer temporada. Sin embargo, se hicieron tres versiones de este exito Dos chicos de cuidado en la ciudad (TV Azteca - Mexico), Tres son multitud (Tele 5 - España) y Buen Partido (Canal 13 - Chile)

Floricienta
Esta es la historia de Flor Fazzarino (Florencia Bertotti) que como cualquier chica de 20 años tiene un montón de sueños por cumplir y una realidad que se empeña en alejarla cada vez de ellos. Su madre ha muerto y ella crece sola, desconociendo su verdadera identidad y creyendo que Fazzarino, un humilde marino y esposo de su madre, lanzado a la mar desde que ésta murió, es su verdadero padre. Sin saber que es la hija de Santillán, un importante empresario muerto recientemente, que se encontraba casado con Malala (Graciela Stefani), mujer ambiciosa y hostil y con quien ya tenía una hija al momento de nacer Flor.
Así es como Flor se ve obligada a alternar entre diversos trabajos y changas para sobrevivir. En realidad no le cuesta mucho, ya que su osado carácter y su versatilidad hacen que se anime y adapte a cualquier tarea o experiencia. Mientras que no tenga que estar encerrada y le quede tiempo para el grupo de música que tiene junto con sus amigos de la calle, está todo bien.
Pero Flor llega a la casa de los Fritzenwalden, que si bien no es un palacio podría serlo y allí, en lugar del baile, lo que encuentra es un trabajo de asistente de la institutriz que cambiará su vida para siempre. Los Fritzenwalden, herederos de una importante familia alemana, son 6 hermanos, que van desde los 25 a los 8 años, que han perdido a sus padres. Sin familia en la Argentina, quedan a cargo de Federico (Juan Gil Navarro), el hermano mayor, que debe abandonar su máster en Alemania y sus sueños para volver a ocuparse de la familia. Es un ser que hace años ha adormecido sus sentimientos, que parece estar enojado con la vida y que las circunstancias lo obligan a convertirse en un rígido y severo conductor de la familia. A pesar del extenso personal de apoyo con el que cuenta, nada parece ser suficiente para domar a esas fieras por las que debe resignar su propia vida.
Flor se convierte en Floricienta para ellos y después de "resistirlos" termina siendo la única persona capaz de sacar de ellos lo mejor y de darles algo más que una correcta educación alemana y cosas materiales. Así como el príncipe de Cenicienta alguna vez encontró el zapatito que le devolvió la felicidad, estos chicos encontrarán en Flor alguien que les devolverá la alegría.
Las cosas se complican porque Malala, madrina de Federico y viuda de Santillán descubre a su muerte que su difunto marido ha dejado como heredera mayoritaria a Flor. Entonces Malala junto a sus 2 hijas casaderas, decide destruirla y casar cuanto antes a la mayor de sus hijas con Federico, con el único objetivo de recuperar y acrecentar la herencia que a su criterio le corresponde.
En estado de anestesia emocional que vive Federico, no le hubiera sido difícil a Malala alcanzar su meta... Un matrimonio sin demasiado compromiso afectivo sería justo lo que él necesita para poder dedicarse a su carrera y dejar a sus hermanos al cuidado de su mujer, suegra y cuñada... Pero así como siempre aparece un hada, o un duende o una barita que cambia la historia... En nuestra historia surge el amor... Ese que nos permite creer, que en los cuentos como en la vida, existen los finales felices.

Jesús, el heredero
La historia comienza hace 10 años.
Dolores Sanchez Alé (Lydia Lamaison), es la madre de Joaquín (Jorge Marrale) quien hoy por hoy administra la fortuna de Dolores. Fortuna que viene de generación en generación gracias a los viñedos que poseen en todo el mundo.
Joaquín esta casado con Julia (Mónica Galán). Una chica de origen más humilde que jamás soñó con semejante fortuna. Cumplió su sueño de Cenicienta sin saber que al casarse con Joaquín, la esperarían años de indiferencia y destrato. Quedó presa de un matrimonio aparentemente perfecto pero que en la intimidad la sofocaba casi hasta la locura. Buscó tener hijos para refugiarse en ellos pero no, los hijos no llegaban. Y en su intento de vivir, en su intento de no morir de pena, comete el error de entregarse a otro hombre. Un empleado de Joaquín, raso, pobre y embaucador. Vive con el una aventura que le devuelve el alma. Las ganas de soñar y la sonrisa. Por esos días decide adoptar una criatura para completar su vida. Aunque nada fuera exactamente de ella, tendría el amor de un hombre afuera de su casa, y un bebé casi propio al cual cuidar. Así es que adopta a una bebé, Pilar (Malena Solda). Pero como todo en la vida de Julia, esto también se convirtió en una trampa. Poco tiempo después de haber adoptado, queda embarazada.
Joaquín no tiene dudas de que esos hijos no son suyos, ya que, aunque su vanidad le impidió confesarlo, hace años sabe que es estéril y sería imposible haber gestado un niño.
Joaquín por su parte, al enterarse de que uno de los mellizos que están por nacer es un varón, decide deshacerse de él el día del parto. Julia recibe la penosa noticia, de que el varón que acaba de nacer, murió repentinamente y solo queda la nena. Pero claro está, que no fue así. El varón es abandonado en la puerta del orfanato. Justamente el día de reyes por lo cual deciden bautizarlo como Jesús Reyes (Joaquín Furriel).
Mas adelante, cuando Pilar y Jesús quieran casarse, surgirá la sospecha de que son hermanos, ya que Pilar no sabe que es adoptada. Esta sospecha pondrá en riesgo no solo el amor incondicional que los une, sino la propia vida de nuestros amantes. Ya que no imaginan su destino sin el otro.

Los secretos de papá
Ruben Jilguero (Dady Brieva) tiene 40 y pico, y es un actor nada conocido que ha vivido haciendo bolos en la tele y teatro en personajes muy pequeños e imposibles de recordar. Pero es un tipo que tiene una gran vocación por lo que hace y que nunca quiso reconocer que se había equivocado de profesión. Por eso no le ha ido demasiado bien en la vida tanto en lo económico como en lo sentimental. Porque siempre ha puesto todo en su profesión, aunque su profesión no le dio demasiado. Igualmente Rubén es un tipo feliz. Tiene muy buena onda. Y una visión de la vida muy positiva. Vive en una departamento al fondo de la casa de su madre. Un departamento de la familia que le ha salvado la vida porque le ha solucionado sus problemas de vivienda. En el departamento de adelante vive su madre y su hermano Luis (Esteban Mellino). Su madre (Patricia Castell) es una cholula de Rubén . Ella tiene la fantasía de que algún día su hijo tendré su oportunidad y será un actor importante. Entonces lo consiente en todo. Mientras que su hermano, que trabaja como seguridad de un shopping, no opina lo mismo. Luis lo considera un vago , y tiene choques constantes con su hermano y con su madre. Luis no se banca que en definitiva el es el único que para la olla en esa casa y que su hermano no hace nada más que traer minas, y pasarla bien. Eso es lo que el piensa de Rubén.
Si bien lo que dice Luis es cierto en cuanto a que no es común que Ruben tenga un trabajo, actualmente Rubén está trabajando. Y está trabajando como actor, aunque en un rol muy particular. Rubén trabaja para uno de esos programas de investigación tipo "Telenoche investiga" , que se encarga de hacer cámaras ocultas por temas de corrupción, estafas, discriminación, etc. Es justamente sobre un tema de discriminación que están trabajando en este momento. Se trata de poner al descubierto a una empresa familiar que tiene un muy buen nombre en distintos barrios de la ciudad: La casa de Pastas "Crivaletti, el rey del capeletti", una empresita de 4 sucursales que existe hace muchísimos años, y que hace para muchos las mejores pastas de Buenos Aires.
Don Antonio (Alberto Martín), su dueño, es muy respetado en la comunidad, pero en los últimos tiempos están ocurriendo ciertas cosas algo turbias en su empresa, por ejemplo hay una denuncia de un empleado que dice haber sido despedido sin ningún tipo de razón, salvo el hecho de su condición de gay. El programa de TV apunta allí. Poner en jaque a Don Antonio es un golpe publicitario importante, ya que de todos los barrios de la Capital y del Gran Buenos Aires vienen a comprar pastas a las 4 sucursales de Don Antonio.
El plan de la productora es meter a trabajar en la empresa a un gay para que descubra la trama secreta de discriminación que se esconde en los pasillos de la fidelería de Don Antonio.
Como Rubén viene haciendo el trabajo de cámaras sorpresas hasta el momento, entonces deciden que sea el quien se presente al puesto y que componga un gay. La misma productora se encarga de truchar un curriculum con datos que pueden ser perfectamente comprobables y Rubén consigue el trabajo, se mete en la empresa y allí comienza la historia.
Contrariamente a lo que la gente de la productora cree el problema de discriminación no viene de arriba sino de un par de empleados de menor nivel que lo que quieren es acceder al puesto de Rubén y no tienen mejor idea que hacer echar a todos los que pasan por ese puesto. Pasó un gay y ahora otro, y también a este lo van a intentar sacar del medio. Rubén se encargará de hacer fracasar el plan del empleado Corvalán y hará que sea el quien termine en la calle. Por un lado Rubén quedará muy bien con la fábrica de pastas, pero por otro lado esto no le sirve para nada a la productora, porque al no haber discriminación no hay programa para mandar al aire.
Mientras Rubén vive el proceso de meterse en la fábrica y sacar a la luz toda esta trama, aparece un personaje que será fundamental para la historia y para Rubén. Se trata de Camila. Camila es una chica divina de 17 años y es hija de Rubén. Pero Rubén no lo sabe. Porque Camila nació de la relación furtiva de Rubén con Fernanda (Patricia Viggiano), una chica de Pilar, cuando Rubén hace muchos años (17 para ser más exactos) estuvo de gira con una obra por el gran Buenos Aires. Y Fernanda, cuando se enteró del embarazo no quiso decirle nada a Rubén y guardó el secreto hasta ahora. Camila (Luisana Lopilato), se entera por una abuela y la empleada de una abuela. Y va en busca de su padre. Se escapa de su casa, sin decirle a su madre que sabe la verdad. La madre queda angustiada y Camila busca a su padre. Lo encuentra y al principio no le dice que es su hija. Se conecta con él para tratar de conocerlo y allí empieza allí una relación que no se cortará más. Y Que hará que Rubén tenga que seguir haciendo el personaje del gay en la fábrica de pastas durante mucho tiempo más. Es que cuando la madre de Camila se entera de lo que está pasando y se enfrenta con su hija , quiere volvérsela a llevar a su casa, pero la nena no acepta. Quiere quedarse con su padre. La madre amenaza con obligarla legalmente y Rubén que no quiere separarse de su hija, tiene solo un camino para que su mujer no se la lleve, el debe demostrar que tiene una mínima solvencia para hacerse cargo de la chica. Esto se demuestra, entre otras maneras, teniendo un empleo fijo. Y Rubén lo tiene, en la fábrica de pastas, haciendo el personaje que hasta ahora mejor le salió en la vida.
Encima el programa de TV no va a salir al aire porque no hubo discriminación, o sea que para quedarse con su hija, Rubén debe simular que es gay y tiene que cuidar ese trabajo como si fuera lo más importante de la vida, por lo menos hasta que la nena cumpla los 18 y para eso falta casi un año. Pero el problema es que Rubén no le dice a su hija la verdad. Ella cree que el trabaja en una fábrica de pastas, no sabe que el allí es gay. Cuando lo descubra será un golpe muy duro. Pensará que su madre tenía razón cuando decía que no le había dicho nunca la verdad, porque ese hombre era el peor de todos.
La sangre no llegará al río… Camila terminará por enterarse del secreto y colaborará con su padre en sus planes.
Pero hay más razones para que Rubén se quede en la casa de pastas, Eugenia (Romina Gaetani), Eugenia está casada con Tony (Federico Delía)… Eugenia lucha por salvar un matrimonio que no va demasiado bien. A Tony lo desvela la relación con su padre. Don Antonio, además de ser el rey del Capeletti, es el rey de su casa. Y Tony es el príncipe heredero, que tendrá que esperar que su padre muera para poder tomar alguna decisión, en la espera Tony amasa resentimiento e insatisfacción. No puede con su locura. Y hace que odie la fabrica de pastas y todo lo que ésta representa.
Eugenia, que es una santa, trata por todos los medio de bajar le la locura a su marido, mediando con su padre, haciéndole ver que ella está ahí para quererlo y cuidarlo. Pero él no la registra, ni a ella, ni a la ganas que Eugenia tiene de ser una cantante profesional.
Se enreda con una obrera de la fabrica, se enreda con el falso amigo de su padre, Julio Cardenali (Edgardo Moreira), el dueño de un supermercado que buscará por todos los medios quedarse con la fabrica de pastas. En la imposibilidad de igualarse con el padre. Tony encontrará justificativo de sus canalladas.
Eugenia y Tony vienen de una separación, y está luchando por salvar a su pareja, en esta circunstancia Rubén la conoce, ambos dos tendrán en principio una afinidad. Para Eugenia, Rubén será su confidente, su amigo gay depositario de todas sus penas. Para Rubén… Eugenia será el amor de su vida.

Padre coraje
Un joven idealista que, viendo que la ley juega a favor de los más poderosos, de esos que consiguen sus beneficios a costa de los más pobres, débiles y desamparados, decidió aplicar su propia justicia en defensa de ellos. Así nació Coraje (Facundo Arana), un personaje del que todo el mundo habla con fervor, con admiración por sus más osadas hazañas, pero que nadie conoce. Coraje actúa enmascarado, acompañado por dos bandidos. El asesinato de uno de los hombres más respetados de La Cruz conmueve a toda la zona y despierta las más duras sospechas. Al parecer, Guerrico supo días antes de su muerte algo que ni él, ni nadie debía saber. Algo que ponía en riesgo los intereses de algunos poderosos. Fue advertido, incluso tentando a silenciar su secreto, pero su decencia y honestidad a la tumba, igual que ese secreto. Alguien tiene que pagar por esa vida. Pero ninguno de los responsables va asumir esa condena. Así, en un recinto ubicado debajo de la plaza del pueblo donde regularmente todos los viernes se reúne una Logia compuesta por los más poderosos del pueblo, se piensa en un posible candidato para cargar con ese crimen. Y nadie más adecuado para hacerlo que un forajido. Coraje, ese justiciero que vive sacándole a los ricos para ayudar a los pobres, y que nunca ha matado ningún mortal, ni siquiera al más malvado esta vez hizo la peor de las excepciones: matar a Guerrico, al hombre más querido de La Cruz. Enterado de esta injusticia, Coraje decide no solo limpiar su nombre, si no hacer justicia y atrapar al verdadero asesino de Guerrico. Y si bien no saben quien es, saben que está en La Cruz. Así es como Coraje y su banda deciden ir a La Cruz, pero saben que para tamaña empresa necesitan una estrategia mucho más fuerte que la de actuar desde las oscuridades del bosque, como lo vienen haciendo hasta ahora. Y accidentalmente, yendo hacia La Cruz, la encuentran. Hoy el anciano sacerdote del pueblo hace su último oficio en cementerio despidiendo los restos de Guerrico. Mañana llega el nuevo párroco. Nadie conoce su apariencia y tampoco su destino. En el camino hacia La Cruz, el Padre Juan es asaltado por un ladrón justo cuando Coraje y su banda pasan por allí. Logran darle su merecido al bandido, pero no logran salvarle la vida al sacerdote. Coraje ve en el desafortunado hecho y más precisamente en la sotana del Padre Juan, la manera de entrar a La Cruz y a todas sus casas. Nadie más respetado, nadie más inofensivo, nadie más confiable para escuchar cualquier secreto, aún aquellos inconfesables, que el cura. Sin ningún conocimiento teológico ni litúrgico, más cierta admiración por Jesús llega el nuevo cura párroco a La Cruz, un pueblo muy creyente y conservador. A partir de aquí, desde la Iglesia de La Cruz, comenzarán a ejecutarse los distintos planes, estrategias, investigaciones y todo lo necesario para hacer justicia con dos hombres: con Guerrico y con Coraje. Coraje rápidamente es conmovido por la belleza de una de las jóvenes del pueblo Clara (Nancy Dupláa) que no es otra que una de las dos hijas de Guerrico. Ambos caerán en el hechizo del amor. Ella sufrirá por haberse enamorado de un hombre que esta casado con Dios. Y él, aún sabiendo que ese amor no es imposible, no la tendrá, pagará el costo de su mentira.
Con Carina Zampini (Ana Guerrico), Leonor Benedetto (Amanda Jauregui), Nora Cárpena (Elisa), Raúl Rizzo (Manuel Costa) y elenco.

CONCLUSIÓN FINAL
Al principio la imagen del galán era la de un hombre duro, recio, serio, al cual le costaba expresar sus sentimientos, como si por mostrarse de otra manera fuera a perder hombría, y el cual era capaz de hacer cualquier cosa por conseguir el amor de la mujer con la cual quería estar.
Creemos que la postura tan fría del hombre frente a cuestiones del corazón se debe a una cuestión instaurada socialmente en la cual no está (o no estaba) bien visto que el hombre sea una persona sensible, sino que ese era un terreno que debería corresponderle únicamente a las mujeres.
Debido a distintas razones, cambios en la sociedad, la economía y la política, los libretos fueron cambiando. Las restricciones sobre los temas a tratar fueron haciendo que las historias sean cada vez más pobres y reiterativas. Se estaba produciendo una notable crisis en el teleteatro. La única manera que había de salvar la situación era contar esas mismas historias, pero de diferente manera. Es así que en 1972 surge Rolando Rivas taxista, novela en la cual se incluyen temas de la actualidad. Otro de los recursos para atraer público es la manera en la que es presentado el galán. Ya no se muestra como el hombre recio que se mostraba en años anteriores, sino que se lo puede ver más sensible y más cercano a todas las mujeres que cada tarde se deslumbran con el frente al televisor.
Pero esta etapa duró poco ya que una vez que la telenovela recuperó su prestigio, se volvió a la vieja formula de macho rudo.
Un cambio grande que se produjo en los 80 vino de la mano de los llamados “galancitos”. Estos empezaron con “Pelito”, en 1984, pero se instalan con más fuerza y para quedarse en 1987 con la tira “Clave de sol”, esto marca un cambio importante con respecto a la televisión argentina. Además ahora si que no les importaba demostrarse tal cual eran, ni tampoco dejar aflorar sus sentimientos, ya que era una novela en la cual se mostraba la vida de los adolescentes con sus dolencias, sus problemas, felicidades e inquietudes y esta manera de mostrarse continuo en los 90 y en la actualidad, en donde hasta se cambiaron los roles de la telenovela y el galán pasa a ser el que sufre y la heroína pasa a tener la rudeza características de él. Por todo esto debemos afirmar nuestra hipótesis que la figura del galán a cambiado ha dejado de lado la rudeza característica del 50 y muestra hoy en el año 2000 que tiene su parte sensible y que ya no es signo de vergüenza sino de orgullo.
Pero hay que destacar una sola cosa que el galán argentino no ha cambiado y que eso por eso que es elegido por los países de afuera.EL GALAN ARGENTINO ES MUY PERO MUY BUEN BESADOR.
ENTREVISTAS
Entrevista con Gabriel Goity- actor-:
P: ¿creés que para estar en la televisión y ser un galán solo hace falta ser lindo?
R: me parece que la belleza no vale de nada si no sabés como pararte delante de una cámara o como manejarte arriba de un escenario. Creo que va mucho más allá de ser una cara bonita... eso quedó demostrado en varias ocasiones.
P: ¿ te parece que hay un cambio entre el galán recio que se mostraba décadas atrás y el galán del 2000, que es mucho más sensible?
R: si, creo que hay un cambio notorio... también hay que tener en cuenta que hubo muchos cambios en nuestro país, tanto a nivel social, como político... son cosas que influyen...
P: ¿te parece que el ser galán ahora se mide por otro lado?
R: siii, totalmente, ahora cualquiera es galán!!! Lo que pasa es que ahora parece que algunos son “interesante” y por eso se los tilda de galanes, pero si vamos a medir por lindos... lindos son Echarri, Arana. En cambio hoy Miguel Ángel Rodríguez, por ejemplo, es interesante.
Entrevista a Adriana Bruno, periodista especializada en novelas del diario Clarín:
P ¿Crees que cambió la figura del galán a lo largo de la historia de la televisión? ¿Por qué?
A B: La figura del galán cambió notablemente. En principio, podemos ubicar toda una primera etapa de la telenovela (los años 60) en que la protagonista siempre era la mujer y el galán acompañaba. Esto cambia con Rolando Rivas, taxista (de Alberto Migré, 1972-73 protagonizada por Claudio García Satur)y luego vienen una serie de protagonistas masculinos, como Malevo (Bebán), El oriental (Bebán), Un mundo de 20 asientos (Levrino), El Rafa (Alberto de Mendoza). Las características de estos personajes eran bien "de macho latino", hombres duros, sentimentales por dentro pero recios por fuera. Y, slavo Levrino, "lindos pero que no se note", haciendo más gala de apostura que de ternura o belleza.
En los 80 vendrá una nueva etapa de personajes femeninos hasta llegar al actual momento, donde el protagónico está repartido, o depende de la fama (o taquilla) del actor o actriz. Ej. si tenemos a Facundo Arana se hará Padre Coraje, y si tenemos a Natalia Oreiro se hará Kachorra.
P:¿Cómo eran los galanes de antes y cómo los de ahora? Si hubo un cambio de actitud, ¿fue acorde a un cambio en la sociedad argentina?
A B: El cambio tiene que ver con el reflejo de la sociedad. Si queremos un galán recio, habrá que hacer una novela de época, e incluso así (Padre Coraje), habrá que mostrar el costado sentimental del personaje aunque sea en su intimidad. De cualquier modo, el galán de la novela siempre ha sido, más sentimental o menos, una suerte de juguete en manos del destino y de las mujeres que lo rodeaban (entre los sí y los no de la amada y las especulaciones y mentiras de la malvada).
P: ¿La mayor independencia obtenida por la mujer de un tiempo a esta parte influyó en la actitud del galán televisivo? ¿Por qué?
A B: Solamente en el hecho de que el galán ya no puede ser un irrespetuoso. Pero el modelo Clark Gable en Lo que el viento se llevó, sigue siendo EL modelo. La novela es para soñar, no necesita ser fiel reflejo de la realidad, lo cual a veces resulta hasta contraproducente para el éxito en el género.
P: Características ineludibles del galán. ¿Qué se necesita para ser un galán de telenovelas? ¿Las características difieren si hablamos de un galán de telecomedia? ¿Por qué?
A B: Un poco te la contesté arriba. Creo que la mayor diferencia con el protagonista de telecomedia es que este no necesita ser un galán. Puede no ser apasionado, puede tener más dudas sobre su amor, puede ocuparse de los problemas de sus hijos, sobrinos, vecinos durante mucho más tiempo. El galán DEBE vivir una historia de amor.
P : ¿Qué aspecto prevalece en la elección de un galán? ¿Su prestigio, sus aptitudes dramáticas, su cachet? ¿Por qué?
A B : Hoy el galán que encabeza una tira se elige teniendo en cuenta su llegada al público nacional pero también (y quizá en mayor medida) su popularidad entre el público extranjero. Es decir, se busca que su nombre sea un argumento de venta a la hora de colocar la novela en el mercado exterior. El caso de Facundo Arana, el de Gustvo Bermúdez, el de Gabriel Corrado, el de Osvaldo Laport...
En cuanto al cachet, depende de si se trata de coproducciones o no. Esta es toda una larga negociación, a veces una productora nacional se garantiza al actor que vende afuera y con eso va a buscar al coproductor extranjero y sus dólares, con lo cual podrá aumentar el cachet del actor protagónico. A veces la coproductora contrata al actor y luego va en busca de la productora nacional....
P: ¿Un galán internacional atrae más que uno nacional? ¿Alguna vez ocurrió? ¿Por qué?
AB: Alguna vez se buscó al galán extranjero. Pero los resultados no fueron los que las productoras o canales esperaban. Podemos citar el caso de Chayanne, contratado para Provocame, con Araceli González. O, hace diez años, el caso de Carlos Mata, venezolano, contratado junto a Catherine Fulop para hacer una novela en Buenos Aires despues del éxito que habían tenido las novelas venezolanas que protagonizaban (Cristal, Señora, en el caso de él; Abigail, en el caso de ella). Sin embargo, aquí, no anduvieron del todo. De todos modos, no es algo que ocurra con frecuencia. Es más clásico el caso de la actriz extranjera que viene a trabajar a Buenos Aires y se va quedando (por el motivo que fuere) como las venezolanas Grecia Colmenares y Fulop, la peruana Gianella Neyra, etc.
P: ¿Por qué crees que el galán argentino es un producto de exportación en países como México, Perú o Colombia?
AB: El galán argentino es muy apreciado en otros mercados, por distintos motivos. En México suele tener que ver con 1) la belleza física, un tipo más "europeo" que el galán local; 2) el estilo de actuación, mucho más naturalista. En Colombia, gusta el estilo "sensible". Según lo que me dijo hace muy poco, durante la Segunda Cumbre Mundial de la Industria de la Telenovela (realizada en octubre en Barcelona) la productora colombiana Juana Uribe, el galán argentino es apreciado por su belleza física (dice que en Colombia las mujeres son mucho más bellas que los hombres) y por una cuestión que tiene que ver con el no machismo. Los colombianos, asegura, son tan machistas que no pueden, por más actores que sean, manejar las situaciones de ternura con las mujeres. Temen o tienen verguenza de mostrarse amables, sentimentales, y por supuesto de llorar.
P : ¿Por qué crees que actores como Facundo Arana u Osvaldo Laport tienen éxito en mercados tan lejanos como Israel o Rumania?
A B: Porque son lindos, están fuertes, tienen un tipo "latino", y básicamente son buenos actores,que saben convencer y seducir.
P: ¿Quién es el emblema de galán en la TV argentina y por qué?
A B: Hay varios. Según pasan los tiempos. Podemos nombrar a Eduardo Rudy, a Rodolfo Bebán, a Arnaldo André, hoy a Facundo Arana o a Pablo Echarri. Creo que no hay UN emblema, como no hay UNA heroína. Pero sí un tipo argentino de galán, reconocible por esa mezcla de fuerte y sensible en las dosis justas. Y, por un detalle que no es menor: EL GALAN ARGENTINO ES MUY PERO MUY BUEN BESADOR.
Entrevista con Federico Olivera
P: ¿Crees que para estar en televisión y ser un galán solo hace falta ser lindo?
R: Me parece que se le está dando mucha importancia a eso, creo que hoy en día, a la hora de buscar un galán se fijan mucho en el aspecto físico... pero eso no es lo único que hace falta para ser galán.
P: ¿Y qué crees que es lo que hace falta?
R: Hay que saber actuar, por ejemplo, creo que eso es lo más importante... porque sino, ser lindo te puede ayudar al principio, pero si no sabes trabajar no te sirve de nada.
P: ¿ Te parece que hay un cambio entre el galán recio que se mostraba décadas atrás y el galán del 2000, que es mucho más sensible?
R: Y... yo creo que si, aunque siempre va a estar la fórmula infalible del galán recio, creo que hoy en día esa imagen está cambiando... se está haciendo un poco más sensible, eso se puede ver bien en “Padre Coraje”, donde el personaje que interpreta Facundo (Arana), o el mío, es el de un enamorado capaz de hacer cualquier cosa por la mujer que ama.
Entrevista con Marcelo Cosentino
P: ¿Crees que para estar en televisión y ser un galán solo hace falta ser lindo?
R: No. Creo que puede ser un gancho para ayudarte a empezar, pero no es lo único que importa, o sea, si sos lindo... mejor, pero también es importante que sepas usar esa belleza para laburar bien.
P: ¿ Te parece que hay un cambio entre el galán recio que se mostraba décadas atrás y el galán del 2000, que es mucho más sensible?
R: Si, y creo que eso tiene mucho que ver con los cambios que se dan en cuanto a sociedad, antes no estaba muy bien visto que el hombre sea sensible, es como que relacionaban mucho eso con un tema de hombría. Antes era todo mucho más machista.
P: Entonces, ¿puede ser que ahora ser galán mida por otro lado?
R: Puede ser... capaz es como decís vos y ahora importa más que sea sensible y no tanto que sea lindo... después de todo por más lindo que sea si no es para nada sensible, me parece que mucho no atrae.

SEOcontent type='html'SEOÉ que têm dias que a gente sente que algo por dentro está se alargando: eis o crescimento. E um filme passa na memória, muitas histórias do seu ser antigo. Um enredo comprido, cumprido. E todas as emoções se enfileiram para serem amadurecid
E cada minuto dura anos que se acoplam no seu rosto, no seu corpo, no que recém-nasce parecendo ser mais velho, mas é só um ser vivido, ainda moço: substituindo o que havia em você e que agora está morto.
É que têm dias que a gente não consegue se dar conta de que está prestando contas com o destino. A mudança parece brusca, mas foi tão sutil e contínua que parecia nula. E a alma vai buscando mais espaço, pois a evolução interna estica a pele da percepção para que caiba a sabedoria.
E, repentinamente, a gente vira adulto e tira o luto. E aprende a brincar feito gente grande: a gente compreende que crescer doeu, matou várias ilusões, extirpou algumas companhias, mas nos ensinou a paciência, o discernimento e a escolher viver inteiramente dia após dia.

SEOcontent type='html'SEOQuando adoeci...
Muita coisa mudou. Pessoas, minha visão de mundo, minhas prioridades.
Percebi quem ficaria e me livrei dos superficiais, o que na verdade foi muito bom, a peneira estava feita.
Altas reflexões sobre e vida e seu tudo de bom. Como seria daqui pra frente, Meu Deus?!
Tive de encarar, sempre agradecida por ser eu e não alguém que se eu pudesse pouparia... Se me dessem a chance de escolher entre eu e alguém que eu amo pra ficar doente, eu me escolheria, então tinha de encarar. Com fé, coragem e esperança sempre coladinhas...
Desejei ainda mais a vida. Desejei ainda mais estar presente. Nunca foi tão iminente a possibilidade de não estar mais por aqui.
Não posso deixar de dizer que foi um marco. Mudei demais. Me tornei mais forte do que nunca e ao mesmo tempo, mais frágil também. Coisas que jamais me assustariam agora me derrubam com extrema facilidade. E coisas que eu nem me importava tanto, agora se tornaram grandiosas...
Não, não gosto de me fazer de vítima, nem de ficar falando de doença. Não. Estou falando aqui de quem me tornei depois que adoeci. Que há males que vem para o bem. Nunca uma situação de risco deixa de nos ensinar algo. Nunca. Hoje, posso dizer isso com propriedade. Não sou melhor por isso, mas mereço respeito. Tudo isso pra dizer que não importa o que aconteça, tem sempre aqueles que não soltarão da nossa mão. Tem sempre um aprendizado, um recomeço, um fôlego novo a cada dia. Basta abrir os olhinhos pra poder enxergar. E o que parecia um beco sem saída, não passava de uma rua estreita que ia dar numa avenida, grande, cheia de possibilidades...

SEOcontent type='html'SEO"Para ter lábios atraentes, diga palavras doces;
para ter olhos belos, procure ver o lado bom das pessoas;
para ter um corpo esguio, divida sua comida com os famintos;
para ter cabelos bonitos, deixe uma criança passar seus dedos por eles pelo menos uma vez por dia;
para ter boa postura, caminhe com a certeza de que nunca andará sozinho;
Ao ficarmos mais velhos, descobrimos porque temos duas mãos, uma para ajudar a nós mesmos, a outra para ajudar o próximo; a beleza de uma mulher não está nas roupas que ela veste, nem no corpo que ela carrega, ou na forma como penteia o cabelo. A beleza de uma mulher deve ser vista nos seus olhos, porque esta é a porta para seu coração, o lugar onde o amor reside".

E eu só quero agradecer.
Agradecer o suporte espiritual que tive nesse mês que termina com saldo positivo.
Porque enquanto eu colocava o choro em dia, eu não me senti sozinha. Mesmo estando sozinha muitas vezes, ap
Porque eu aprendi com os momentos ruins. Porque eu abri os olhos pro que me fazia mal. Porque eu conheci meu valor real. Porque eu redescobri em mim uma fé há tempos adormecida.
Fé que faz a diferença em cada passo que tenho dado, e cada decisão que tenho tomado.
Fé que me faz dormir em paz, tendo a certeza que o amanhã será melhor, porque vou colher o que tenho plantado hoje.
Tenho mandado pro mundo as melhores energias e pensamentos. E conforme o que eu acredito isso volta, mesmo que demore.
Quero agradecer a paz. Paz que só veio depois que muitas coisas se foram.
E aprendi a não deixar mais entrar na minha vida nada que me faça perder essa paz.
E aprendi a deixar ir embora tudo que me faz mal. Desapego.
Estou fechada para as coisas ruins. E aprendi a me afastar de tudo que me suga as energias e mancha meus dias.
Agradeço a Deus, e ao plano espiritual pelo suporte, pelo ‘ombro’, pelo conforto.
Por tudo que tenho na vida. Pelas pessoas que ficaram. E sempre ficam. Pelos bons momentos que passei ao lado delas, e pelos tombos que me deixaram mais resistente as quedas.
Pelos sorrisos que ganho todos os dias do anjo mais lindo da minha vida.
Por todos os abraços que fizeram toda a diferença. E pela esperança que só se renovou.
Agradeço por ser a mulher que eu sou, e por saber viver o que eu falo e acredito.
Agradeço por tudo o que já passei, e me trouxe até aqui.
Pelo hoje e pelos dias que virão, onde terei a oportunidade de fazer com que sejam melhores do que os dias que já se foram.
Agradeço pela vida que eu tenho e por todos os sonhos que ainda carrego no coração.

Tudo é uma questão de perspectiva
Ao passarmos na rua podemos nos dar conta que existem diferentes tipos de beleza, das mais altas às mais baixas, das magras às cheinhas, das loiras às morenas, das inteligentes às engraçadas.
Essa diversidade é o que nos torna tão original aos olhos das pessoas, ser capaz de enxergar no outro o melhor que ele pode ser, sempre foi uma questão de perspectiva. Ajustar o seu foco é uma opção que traz resultados positivos. Infelizmente algumas pessoas insistem em não mudar suas visões de mundo e continuam vivendo na escuridão do egocentrismo e da solidão.
Entenda que as coisas mudam se você mudar, o mundo ao seu redor dependa de como você encara todas as coisas, tente ser verdadeiro, alegre, animado, empolgado e firme, garanto que você atrairá pessoas tão quanto ou melhores do que você.
Você foi criado para ser uma pessoa brilhante e nunca permita que digam o contrário, inteligência, sabedoria e entendimento são presentes que o criador de todas as coisas sempre está disposto a dar, a todos aqueles que se mostram interessados. Conquiste apenas um desses e você irá perceber a incrível diferença que sua vida pode fazer.
Não existem pessoas feias ou bonitas, estudos comprovam que o “Belo” não existe, pois para existir se faz necessário que ele seja universal, uma opinião unanime. O que existe de fato é o “Agradável”, pois pode ser agradável para uns e nem tanto para outros.
Tente se encantar com o melhor das pessoas, acredite no que elas têm de melhor, invista seu tempo e sua vida naquelas pessoas que precisam e querem estar com você. Aposte suas fichas em quem quer ser incentivado, apoie quem precisa de um empurrãozinho, se empolgue simplesmente com tudo aquilo que as pessoas que te amam se empolgam.

* Este pequeno texto é para o treinamento de colaboradores das empresas. Vamos ver o que um cliente insatisfeito pensa da nossa organização.
Carta de um cliente insatisfeito…
Caro empresário,
Primeiro eu gostaria de me identificar como um cliente seu, na verdade agora um ex-cliente.
O cliente que, quando ligou para sua empresa, encontrou o telefone ocupado.
O cliente que, quando não encontrou o telefone ocupado, esperou muito tempo até que a atendente estivesse disposta a atender.
O cliente que, apesar de estar com “uns quilinhos a mais” não gosta de ser chamado de “fofinho” por quem não lhe conhece.
O cliente que, pacientemente, explicou várias vezes o que queria, para pessoas que não sabiam nada do trabalho.
O cliente que, após muito sacrifício, conseguiu localizar a pessoa que me atenderia, e que ficou esperando “só um minutinho” – o que ao telefone é uma eternidade.
O cliente que tentou várias vezes e que, após ser colocado de lado, maltratado, menosprezado, foi obrigado a desistir.
E, principalmente, eu sou o cliente que agora se diverte, vendo você gastar muito em rádio, TV, jornal e tudo mais, pedindo para ligar para sua empresa.
Vejam bem, eu só queria fechar um bom negócio com você e sua empresa…
Atenciosamente,
Um Ex-Cliente

(Baumol)
“... inovação e liderança. O empreendedor (queira ou não, também exerce a função de gerente) tem uma função diferente. É seu trabalho localizar novas idéias e colocá-las em prática. Ele deve liderar, talvez ainda inspirar; ele não pode deixar que as coisas se tornem rotineiras e, para ele, a prática de hoje jamais será suficientemente boa para amanhã”.
(Baumol)
"... contudo, por definição, empreendedorismo sempre envolve, explicíta ou implicitamente, a idéia de inovação”.
(Aitken)
"... As características convencionalmente associadas com empreendimento - liderança, inovação, risco, etc. - estão associadas ao conceito, precisamente porque, em uma cultura altamente comercializada como a nossa, elas são características essenciais da efetiva organização dos negócios. Pela mesma lógica, em uma cultura diferentemente orientada, as características típicas de um empreendimento diferem”.
(Aiken)
"Ser um empreendedor é muito mais que ter vontade de chegar ao topo de uma montanha; é conhecer a montanha e o tamanho do desafio; planejar cada detalhe da subida, saber o que você precisa levar e que ferramentas utilizar; encontrar a melhor trilha, estar comprometido como resultado, ser persistente, calcular os riscos preparar-se fisicamente; acreditar na sua própria capacidade e começar a escalada”;
Aprender a Aprender. Programa Brasil Empreendedor
"O cliente mudou, então está na hora de repensá-lo. Ele precisa de vendedores competentes todos os dias, não só nos dois seguintes à convenção”.
(Edmour Saiani)
“Tenha o anzol sempre preparado; na lagoa onde você menos espera, irá encontrar um peixe.” (Ovídio)

Por enquanto, o que mais me impede de ser feliz com ele é que ele simplesmente ignora as características que ele mesmo marca para as fontes. Quando escrevo no Blogger, direto, tudo sai conforme o combinado; mas se o texto vem do Word ou se é enviado por email, a bagunça é geral. Acho isso horrível. Para mim, um blog tem que ter sempre a mesma tipologia, e nas mesmas cores, salvo exceções realmente excepcionais.
Este foi, por sinal, um dos motivos pelos quais resolvi varrer o velho template: com as novas funcionalidades do Blogger, os modelos antigos ficaram obsoletos e difíceis de administrar direito.
Pelo visto, a mesma coisa acontece com os novos.
Estou fazendo umas experiências no Wordpress, para ver como me saio lá.
De qualquer forma, um blog que acaba de fazer dez anos, como o internETC., merece mudar de ares um pouquinho...
Muito obrigada pela paciência de vocês, que estão sendo cobaias das minhas experiências de design.

Fiz uma outra compra na Photojojo que ainda não testei, mas que me pareceu muito prática: um rebatedor de flash para flashes embutidos de DSLRs. Detesto flash, mas quando a luz é dirigida para o teto, aquele efeito horrível melhora muito. Este rebatedor é uma clássica solução low-tech, uma peça de plástico espelhada por dentro que se põe por cima do popup da câmera. Na semana que vem eu conto (e mostro) como funciona.* * *
O aplicativo da semana é o Photo Caddy, que existe tanto em versões Android quanto iOS. Não é novo, mas é excelente: um guia de bolso para as diversas situações que alguém que fotografa pode encontrar: aéreas, submarinas, lua, fogos de artifício, plantas, por aí vai. Abre-se o tópico desejado e lá estão dicas e sugestões, equipamento ideal, espaço para notas individuais e observações de outros usuários. Excelente! Dois detalhes, porém: ele é em inglês e é pago (US$ 3,99).www.matrixar.com="http://www.matrixar.com/-9TxNzFxRCoY/TkWWwsuwlYI/AAAAAAAA12k/55g6wL5exAw/s1600/2011-08-12_QR_code_Coluna_Cora_R%25C3%25B3nai.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;">www.matrixar.com border="0" src="http://www.matrixar.com/-9TxNzFxRCoY/TkWWwsuwlYI/AAAAAAAA12k/55g6wL5exAw/s1600/2011-08-12_QR_code_Coluna_Cora_R%25C3%25B3nai.jpg" /> |

SEOtitle type='text'SEOUma dica para RejaneSEO/titleSEO
SEOcontent type='html'SEO
* * *
Antes, um parênteses. Algumas pessoas reclamam que não falo suficientemente de livros de autores brasileiros. Têm razão. O problema é que estou cercada de autores brasileiros, o que significa que, escrevendo sobre o livro de um amigo, corro o risco de magoar outros dez sobre cujos livros não disse palavra. Não porque não tenha, necessariamente, gostado do seu trabalho, mas apenas porque a crônica é um espaço livre que deve ter seu rodízio de assuntos.* * *
Pensei muito na dica para a Rejane. “Cidade máxima” é uma reportagem extraordinária, um trabalho de pesquisa meticuloso alinhavado com uma prosa da melhor qualidade. Não poderia sugerir a ela nada menos do que isso. E aí me lembrei do livro de José Paulo Cavalcanti Filho, ao qual se pode aplicar a mesmíssima definição.* * *
As causas de um quebra-quebra como o de Londres são complicadas demais para que eu sequer tente entendê-las, quem dirá explicá-las; mas um ponto, me parece, não pode deixar de ser ressaltado, o da distorção de valores gerada pelo consumismo pornográfico que nos cerca.* * *
Por falar em animais inviáveis: quando é que as autoridades brasileiras vão perceber que a população adulta do país tem suficiente capacidade para decidir o que quer ou não quer assistir?! Até aqui, tudo o que este lamentável episódio de censura conseguiu foi fazer a fama de um filme que não merece sequer ser mencionado.SEO/contentSEO

Tiziu é muito difícil de fotografar. Ou está dormindo ou, quando vê a camera, vem pra perto de mim. Ele sabe que aquele objetinho retangular é sinal de carinho, e se joga; não tem a fleuma que tinha a Keaton, ou que tem a Matilda, que sabe olhar à distância.
Ele não. Ele quer o carinho dele agora! e é um bichinho absolutamente adorável e gentil.
Conforme vocês podem ver, Tiziu é um gato em forma.
De pera.

SEOtitle type='text'SEODe mãe para mãeSEO/titleSEO
SEOcontent type='html'SEO
Fiquei arrasada. Torci para que tivesse caído no taxi (o motorista é nosso conhecido). Infelizmente, ao chegar em São Paulo, o motorista me disse que não tinha encontrado nada... Pânico total! A pessoa que o encontrou poderia entrar no meu Facebook e no meu email. Me senti tão invadida que liguei para minha mãe pedindo que mudasse todas as senhas, e lá ficou ela, perdida no mundo tecnológico. Amaldiçoei o dia em que não coloquei senha no celular, culpei o Rafa por não ter percebido que ele tinha caído... Fiquei pensando em quanta coisa a gente escreve nos emails, quantas informações estão ali a um simples toque de quem souber procurar.
Depois comecei a pensar nos vídeos e fotos que tirei durante a viagem para o Rio e que ainda não tinha copiado para o computador. Pensei nessas imagens e em tantas outras coisas que estão no meu iPhone. No vôo para Doha dormi mal, cheguei até a sonhar que alguém postava no meu Facebook: “Flavia Rocha está chorando porque perdeu o iPhone e não vai recuperá-lo!” Enfim, fiquei com aquela sensação de impotência que a gente fica quando vacila.
Chegando em Doha fui direto para o iPad para tentar mudar as senhas, E eis que vejo um email da minha mãe:
“Oi filha, me ligou uma pessoa super humilde que trabalha na limpeza do aeroporto pois encontrou seu celular, na verdade ele pediu para um amigo, mais esperto, ligar. Muito legal!!!!! Ele mora na Ilha e eu vou amanhã buscar. Depois veremos como lhe mando, mas fica tranquila, são pessoas do bem.”
Chegando em Singapura, tive o relato mais fofo da minha mãe. Ao chegar na rua onde esse senhor mora, os seus filhos vieram recebê-la todos felizes. Contaram que adoraram brincar com os joguinhos e que curtiram ver os vídeos daquele neném que fala engraçado. A esposa veio entregar o celular e disse, com lágrimas nos olhos, que, depois de ver o vídeo do Gabriel comendo macarrão decidiu encontrar alguém que soubesse mexer no celular para poder devolver, ela não queria que eu ficasse sem aqueles vídeos e fotos...
Fiquei super tocada com todo o episódio, não só por pensar que ainda existem pessoas honestas no mundo mas, sobretudo, por perceber que aquela mãe pensou em mim como mãe e fez o esforço de procurar um número do Rio em um celular de Singapura para devolver as fotos e vídeos para a mãe do neném que fala engraçado.
Meu iPhone está a caminho de casa. E eu tiro meu chapéu para tamanha sorte e para essa história super legal. Viva, viva, viva!”

Mas a brincadeira não é exclusiva do mundo Apple. Quem quiser dar um brilho nas suas fotos via PC tem várias opções de applets, que, a bem dizer da verdade, já fazem isso há pelo menos vinte anos.

Os excelentíssimos representantes do nada
Eles estão por toda a parte. Em qualquer tipo de manifestação. Nas TVs, na música, nas rádios e ultimamente estão sendo encontrados em diversos blogs. O que eles têm para dizer? Nada. O que eles sabem da vida? Nada. O que eles representam num cenário cultural? Nada.
Mas fazem sucesso. Os representantes do nada são seguidos e venerados por quem não se interessa por nada, por quem não lê nada, por quem não ouve nada e por quem se recusa a enxergar o que acontece em sua volta. E não são poucos esses seguidores.
Ainda não entendo porque uma pessoa que não tem o que dizer, abre a boca para dizer coisa nenhuma.
Não tem o que mostrar? Veja. Não tem o que falar? Ouça. Não sabe o que escrever? Leia.
E, por favor, não encha o saco.

SEOcontent type='html'SEOFarc seqüestra o último cidadão colombiano
Bogotá, 23/04/2002 - As ruas de Bogotá estão desertas. As casas abandonadas. Os carros destrancados e deixados no meio das ruas. E a situação não é diferente no resto do País, todas as cidades colombianas estão sem ninguém. A razão desse abandono foi a constante política de seqüestros difundida pelas Forças Armadas Revolucionárias da Colômbia para conseguirem seus objetivos. Mas parece que agora essa política chegou ao fim. O último cidadão colombiano foi seqüestrado. Não há mais ninguém para ser vítima de qualquer seqüestro e muito menos alguém para pagar o resgate. Como toda a população colombiana - civil e militar, está no cativeiro os líderes da Farc estão sendo obrigados a conviver com os líderes do governo nos mesmos recintos e tomar uma atitude bem diferente das que tomavam antes: buscar saídas pelo diálogo.
Surpreendentemente essa nova atitude está sendo bem mais eficiente do que a costumeira metralhadora na cabeça.

SEOcontent type='html'SEOCroissant vai para o segundo turno nas eleições francesas
Paris, 22/04/2002 - A extrema direita e o nacionalismo radical parece que conseguiram voltar a dominar o povo francês. Depois de várias mostras de uma política progressista e liberal, como ser o único país europeu que ainda faz teste nucleares e também ser o único país que não abriu mão de suas colônias para que elas se tornassem países livres, a França surpreende mais uma vez, colocando dois elementos de direita no segundo turno das eleições.
O atual presidente e devastador do Tahiti, Jacques Chirac, foi um dos vencedores. Croissant foi a surpresa. O desejo do povo em ver um verdadeiro francês, que não apoiasse imigrantes e que defendesse a língua francesa no poder, levou grande parte da população a dar seu voto ao pão folheado com manteiga, umas das receitas mais tradicionais e apreciadas do país.
Menos mal. Eles poderiam dar seu voto a Jean-Marie Le Pen, um louco veterano da segunda guerra, que se arrepende amargamente de ter lutado contra os nazistas.

SEOcontent type='html'SEOJosé Sarney morre depois de mexer numa caixa de marimbondos
Brasília, 19/04/2002 - O ex-presidente, ex-pai de candidata a presidente e atual senador José Sarney faleceu na noite de ontem. Decepcionado com a perda de poder do clã dos Sarney no Maranhão e, principalmente no Brasil, o senador resolveu afogar suas mágoas num bar de uma das esquinas da capital do País. A mistura de whisky com catuaba selvagem acabou alterando drasticamente o comportamento de Sarney pai, que começou subitamente a ter atitudes honestas: segundo testemunhas ele pagou toda a conta e depois ainda ligou para o Presidente da Academia Brasileira de Letras, dizendo que não merecia ser um imortal.
Os garçons do bar, disseram ainda que o senador saiu da esquina disposto a revelar de onde veio o 1,3 milhão de reais encontrados na empresa de sua filha, mas, infelizmente, antes de conseguir por em prática suas intenções, ele acidentalmente colocou a mão numa caixa de marimbondos.
Os insetos o picaram até a morte, numa vingança furiosa. Não se sabe ainda se o motivo da vingança foi a acidental mão na caixa ou a proposital obra literária.

SEOcontent type='html'SEOCrianças são proibidas de freqüentar a igreja
Vaticano, 18/04/2002 - Depois de incontáveis casos de pedofilia, o Vaticano finalmente resolveu tomar alguma providência a respeito desse assunto tão polêmico: a partir do próximo domingo menores de 18 anos serão proibidos de entrar em qualquer igreja católica. Batismo, primeira comunhão e crisma também só poderão ser ministrados a pessoas maiores de idade. A figura do coroinha será extinta - o padre é que se vire. Todas as escolas católicas de 1º e 2º grau serão vendidas. Nenhum padre, bispo, frei ou similar poderá fazer visitas a creches.
A medida ganhou alguns opositores pela radicalidade, mas foi justificada pelos cardeais:"Já que a Igreja Católica não é honesta o suficiente para denunciar esse problema e corajosa o bastante para mandar prender os responsáveis, o melhor é afastar o risco de pedofilia de nossas bases". Ou seja: vinde a mim as criancinhas, nunca mais.

SEOcontent type='html'SEOCollin Powell é enviado para dialogar com terapeuta
Washington, 17/04/2002 - O secretário de Estado norte-americano, General Collin Powell, foi encaminhado para diálogar com um terapeuta. Amigos próximos acreditam que depois de levar um vergonhoso cacete no Vietnã, Powell nunca mais foi o mesmo. Ficou obcecado em participar de uma guerra onde os Estados Unidos fossem capazes de ganhar. Como chefe das Forças Armadas dos EUA durante o governo de Bush pai, insistiu para que os Estados Unidos declarassem guerra contra o Iraque, alegando que vários cidadãos norte-americanos compravam gasolina do Kuwait. Bush pai acreditou. Como secretário de Estado do governo Bush filho (já falecido no mundo perfeito), conseguiu que os Estados Unidos entrassem em guerra com todo um país por causa de um ato terrorista de um grupo.
Antes de ser encaminhado para terapia, o general tentava convencer seu Staff a declarar guerra contra Papua Nova Guiné - alegando que já estava mais do que na hora de algum país se levantar contra a dominação dos crocodilos.

SEOcontent type='html'SEOAtendentes de assistências técnicas serão obrigados a aprender português
Brasília, 16/04/2002 - Ninguém precisa mais tentar descobrir qual a língua que os atendentes de assistências técnicas, também conhecidos por atendentes de "call centers" (para quem tem preguiça de inventar uma tradução), falam. A partir da semana que vem eles serão obrigados a entender o português por imposição do Ministério do Trabalho. Exemplos: se você falar: "Meu DVD está com as imagens em preto e branco e a TV está em sistema NTSC.", ele não irá responder: "Senhora, sua TV precisa estar no sistema NTSC.". Se você pedir para reinstalarem o programa da placa de rede com um CD, porque seu drive de disquete não está funcionando, o técnico não irá aparecer na sua casa com um disquete para reinstalar a placa de rede. Se você falar que sua geladeira não está ligando, ele não irá perguntar o que acontece quando liga.
A nova determinação do Ministério do Trabalho vai causar uma revolução no sistema de atendimento das grandes empresas. Além de entender o mecanismo dos aparelhos, os profissionais serão obrigados a entender o cliente.

Genebra, 15/04/2002 - A Organização Internacional do Trabalho, coligada à ONU, tomou uma decisão para melhorar a produtividade, o ambiente de trabalho e o humor dos trabalhadores em todo o mundo: segunda-feira não será mais um dia de trabalho. Isso já vale para o próximo mês. O final de semana de todos os países que fazem parte das Nações Unidas compreenderá três dias: sábado, domigo e segunda-feira. A decisão, apesar de polêmica, tem sua justificativa. Juan Somavia, diretor geral da IOT declararou que o conselho acha uma injustiça sem tamanho fazer qualquer ser-humano ter que acordar cedo, pegar trânsito e fingir que está de bom-humor depois de apenas dois dias de descanso do ambiente de trabalho. Outra justificativa dada por Somavia foi: "Se no Brasil, os deputados federais trabalham de terça a quinta, qual o problema do trabalhador comum ter sua jornada reduzida para terça a sexta?".
Nenhum.

Rio de Janeiro, 12/04/2002 - Todas as gravadoras brasileiras decidiram em comum acordo realizar um termo de compromisso para que todo músico assine e respeite antes de realizar uma regravação, sob pena de perda de contrato. As principais cláusulas do termo de compromisso são as seguintes:
1. Nenhum artista irá regravar uma música alheia se não tiver algo de absolutamente novo para oferecer a ela - o que não inclui a voz.
2. Músicas do RPM e Tunai não serão aceitas para regravação.
3. Clássicos da MPB devem continuar como clássicos - nem pense em meter o bedelho aí.
4. Traduções de músicas da Celine Dion estão estritamente proibidas, uma versão da canadense já é penitência suficiente.
5. Pelo amor de Deus, deixem o Roberto Carlos rezar sossegado.
6. Mamonas Assassinas nunca fizeram música, faziam piada, portanto deixem também os rapazes em merecido descanso eterno.
7. Qualquer regravação fica vetada à Ivete Sangalo e Daniela Mercury, a menos que elas aprendam que canto não é sinônimo de berro.

SEOcontent type='html'SEOJornais brasileiros aceitam pagar mais do que um salário mínimo para cartunistas
São Paulo 11/04/2002 - A Associação Brasileira de Jornais decidiu que já estava na hora de parar de explorar o trabalho de cartunistas, que, não raras vezes, fazem a parte de articulistas dos próprios jornais. Mesmo porque não se pode denunciar abuso em questões trabalhistas externas se isso acontece dentro da sua própria empresa.
Até hoje um cartunista que mantinha uma tira diária em qualquer jornal do país, ganhava um salário mínimo por esse espaço, menos do que o office-boy da casa. Se conseguisse vender o espaço da tira para outro jornal, ganharia mais outro salário mínimo. Com o detalhe de que para conseguir entrar nos jornais, o profissional precisa da figura de um agente, que leva exatamente metade do que o cartunista consegue. Ou seja, o cartunista (todos no Brasil têm um agente), acabava recebendo meio salário mínimo por mês, por jornal. Laerte e Angeli, por exemplo, nomes com mais peso e fama - que conseguem colaborar com uns 10 jornais, recebiam por esse trabalho diário a enormidade de R$ 900,00/mês.
Com a mudança de postura das grandes publicações e o compromisso da Folha de São Paulo, Estado de São Paulo, O Globo, JB e similares de deixarem de ter uma atitude oportunista e picareta, essa situação parece que vai mudar. Agora só falta eles assumirem também o compromisso de acabarem com os tradicionais atrasos de pagamento a profissionais não registrados em seus quadros.

Lei proíbe venda de perfumes para terceira idade
Brasília, 10/03/2002 - Mais um projeto de lei que defende a saúde pública acaba de ser aprovado pelo senado: a partir do dia 15 de abril de 2002 fica estritamente proibida a venda de perfumes ou quaisquer líquidos com fragância excessiva à pessoas da terceira idade. Segundo o Censo 2002 mais de 70% dessas pessoas, fazem uso dessas substâncias de forma indiscriminada, não respeitando a dosagem correta e o local a ser aplicado. Foi constatado que muitas dessas pessoas se aproveitam desse fato para conseguirem vantagens em filas de marcação de consulta, roletas de ônibus e em elevadores. Entre as fragâncias que oferecem mais perigo ao olfato humano estão o Leite de Rosas, a Alfazema vendida a litro, o perfume Tabu e o Pinho Silvestre.
Dados do DataFolha contam que cerca de 34,7% dos trabalhadores brasileiros são vítimas diárias desses aromas indesejáveis - sendo que até hoje os agentes escapavam impunemente. Dessa porcentagem de vítimas, acredita-se que pelo menos a metade precisa de dispensas semanais devido à coriza e dor de cabeça que se instalam, impossibilitando que elas exerçam qualquer outro tipo de atividade. A partir do dia 15 esse incoveniente terá seu fim. Detectores de cheiro serão intalados na entrada dos ambientes de trabalho e das repartições públicas. Os infratores serão punidos com quatro horas de banho.

SEOcontent type='html'SEODesenhos animados geram conflito internacional
São Paulo, 08/04/2002 - O polêmico episódio de Bart Simpson sendo atacado por macacos no Rio de Janeiro não passou impune aqui no Brasil. Além do Ministério das Relações Exteriores não ter se conformado com o erro geográfico do animal (Bart só poderia ter sido atacado por mosquitos da dengue ou por pit bulls de lutadores de jiu-jitsu e nos dois casos morreria), Maurício de Souza, o quadrinista mais famoso do Brasil resolveu contra-atacar. Já acabou um episódio onde a Turma da Mônica viaja aos Estados Unidos. Cascão é preso e torturado na imigração americana, quando é confundido com um imigrante árabe - já que no terceiro mundo é tudo a mesma coisa. Magali vai fazer intercâmbio numa escola do interior de Wisconsim e morre depois de que um colega esquizofrênico rouba os dois fuzis do pai e atira em toda a classe. Cebolinha é preso por assédio ao tentar falar que vê ferrugem na bicicleta da amiguinha americana "I see lust". Mônica, sozinha e abandonada pelos amigos, começa a perseguir descontrolada todo e qualquer cidadão americano com seu coelho, o Sansão. Depois de assassinar 12, Mônica é condenada pela justiça à injeção letal.
Maurício de Souza ainda não sabe se exibirá esse episódio no Programa da Angélica.

Rio de Janeiro, 08/04/2002 - A empresária Marlene Matos está sofrendo graves problemas com a justiça. A APAE (Associação dos Pais e Amigos dos Excepcionais) abriu um processo contra Matos, acusando-a de explorar o trabalho e e expor ao ridículo pessoas com uma clara limitrofia. Depois de anos se dedicando à carreira de Xuxa Meneguel, a empresária mostrou interesse em agenciar e empregar o novo límitrofe da parada, Kleber sem sobrenome. Marlene Matos se defende, dizendo que está dando oportunidades a seres-humanos que normalmente seriam excluídos da sociedade. Os advogados atacam dizendo que adestrar macaco para circo não é oportunidade. É crime. Enquanto a justiça não decidir o caso, Marlene Matos será proibida de mostrar em qualquer programa o tal do moço sem sobrenome. E também já se prepara para um novo processo. A Sociedade Protetora dos Animais também já declarou que vai entrar na justiça contra a empresária pelos mesmos motivos da APAE.

SEOcontent type='html'SEOJornalismo acaba com o achismo
São Paulo, 05/04/2002 - O achismo, a ciência mais divulgada pela imprensa brasileira vai chegar ao fim. Os diretores das maiores publicações do Brasil, incluindo as Organizações Mundo Perfeito, decidiram ontem em reunião fechada que não vão mais buscar opiniões de gente não qualificada para dar a tal opinião. Um exemplo: músico bahiano só responde pergunta sobre música e, se possível bahiana. Nada de ficar perguntando o que ele acha da situação do povo da cidade de Lusaka ou da evolução da física quântica. Aliás, nenhuma publicação poderá mais começar uma pergunta com frase "O que você acha...". O entrevistado pode ser convidado a dar sua opinião, não sua suposição. Sem certeza ou responsabilidade não se faz mais jornalismo.

EGE (Esquadrão Geriátrico de Extermínio)
O poeta pode ser violento. A maior parte das vezes contra si mesmo. Um tiro no peito, gás, veneno, um tiro na boca como fez Hemingway, que também foi poeta em O Velho e o Mar; Maiakóviski, um tiro no peito, Sílvia Plath, gás de cozinha; Ana Cristina César, um salto pelos ares, etc, etc, etc. "Os delicados preferem morrer", dizia Drummond. Mas esta modesta articulista, sobretudo poeta, diante das denúncias feitas pela revista Veja, todos aqueles poços perfurados em prol de uma única pessoa, ou em prol de amiguelhos de sua excelência, presidente da Câmara Senhor Inocêncio (a indústria da seca), e o outro com seu lindo carro às custas de gaze e esparadrapo... Credo, gente, quando você vê na televisão ou in loco o povão famélico, desdentado, mirrado... Um amigo meu foi para o Ceará e passou os dias chorando! As crianças todas tortas, todas pedindo comida sem parar e 500 toneladas de farinha apodrecendo... e montes de feijão desviados para uma só pessoa... (um parênteses, porque meu coração de poeta pede a forca, cadeia, cadeia para aqueles que se locupletam à custa da miséria absoluta, da dor, da doença). Gente, eu já estou uma fúria e para ficar mais calma proponho algumas coisas mais sutis, por exemplo: o Esquadrão Geriátrico de Extermínio, a sigla óbvia seria EGE. Arregimentaríamos várias senhoras da terceira idade, eu inclusive, lógico, e com nossas bengalinhas em ponta, uma ponta de estilete, besuntada de curare (alguns amigos viajariam até os Txucarramãe ou os Kranhacarore para consegui-lo) nos comícios, nos palanques, na Câmara, no Senado, espetaríamos as perniciosas nádegas ou o distinto buraco malcheiroso desses vilões, nós velhinhas, misturadas às massas, e assim ninguém nos notaria, como ninguém nota a velhice. Nossas vidas ficariam dilatadas de significados, ó que beleza espetar bundões assassinos, nós faceiras matadoras de monstros!
O curare é altamente eficiente, provoca rapidinho a paralisia completa de todos os músculos transversais (bunda é transversal?) e em seguidinha sobrevém a morte por parada respiratória. Ficaríamos todas ao redor do coitadinho, abanando:óóóó, morreu é? Um pedido ao presidente Itamar: severidade, excelência é ignominioso, indigno, insultante para todos nós, deste pobre Brasil tão saqueado, que essas denúncias terminem no vazio, no nada, na impunidade.
HILDA HILST
Crônica publicada em 1993 no Diário de Campinas. Parte do atual livro Cascos & Carícias. Em tempo: as denúncias terminaram no vazio, no nada, na impunidade.
NOTÍCIA EXTRAORDINÁRIA
Inocêncio Oliveira morre em asilo
Recife, 04/04/2002 - O deputado federal Inocêncio Oliveira, líder da bancada do PFL na Câmara, morreu ontem ao visitar um asilo na periferia do Recife. Oliveira estava em plena divulgação de sua candidatura para o senado, quando foi visitar os velhinhos. Logo depois de cumprimentar um grupo de simpáticas senhoras, estranhamente o deputado caiu paralisado. Em poucos minutos ele se encontrava morto, por uma parada respiratória fulminante. Como o único posto de saúde que havia por perto não estava funcionando, não houve tempo hábil para salvar a vida de tão eminente político. As velhinhas do asilo, quando tiveram notícia da morte do deputado, se mostraram inconsoláveis: "Óóóóó! Morreu, é?"

Rio de Janeiro, 03/04/2002 - O ex-jornalista e atual apresentador Pedro Bial resolveu adotar um novo adereço em seu figurino: um saco de supermercado. Depois de aceitar passar vexame em rede nacional por dois meses e fingir que tudo estava muito bem, Bial não agüentou a pressão, teve um crise de nervos e enfiou um saco de supermercado na cabeça. A direção da Rede Globo imediatamente deu um período de licença para o apresentador. Familiares e amigos ainda não sabem quando ele irá se recuperar, principalmente porque Bial se nega a receber qualquer tipo de tratamento e inclusive nega sua própria identidade. Toda vez que é chamado de Pedro, corrige o interlocutor: "Eu sou o Marcelo Márcio. Jornalista internacional. Eu cobri a queda do muro de Berlim.".
Essa ladainha vem sendo repetida a exaustão e desnecessariamente. É óbvio que não é verdade. Um jornalista sério nunca aceitaria pagar mico no Big Brother.

Nova Iorque 02/04/2002 - O Conselho de Paz da ONU entrou num acordo com todos os países filiados: nenhum governo poderá mais manifestar suas preferências religiosas. Quem escolhe ser judeu, católico, muçulmano, evangélico, ortodoxo ou budista é o povo, não o governo. De agora em diante, nenhuma pessoa com cargo político poderá manifestar publicamente sua religião e muito menos obrigar a população local a segui-la. Em todos os discursos públicos será proibida a menção da palavra Deus, Alá, ou o que o valha. Símbolos religiosos também serão proibidos em repartições públicas. Adornos pessoais que possam identificar alguma religião também não serão permitidos. Qualquer quebra no acordo poderá resultar em sérias sanções ao país infrator.
Com a adoção dessas medidas o Conselho de Paz tem a certeza de que a maioria dos conflitos e guerras chegarão ao fim.

Brasília 01/04/2002 – O Senado acabou de aprovar uma lei que torna crime inafiançável justificar o próprio mau-caratismo pelo mau-caratismo coletivo. Se o indíviduo falsificar carteirinha de estudante com a desculpa de que todo mundo faz, vai para cadeia. Se furar a fila porque: "Ah, se eu não fizer, outro vai fazer.", vai para cadeia. Se não avisar para o garçom que ele esqueceu de cobrar alguns chopps, porque ninguém avisa mesmo, vai para cadeia. Se leva vantagem de amigos e conhecidos, oferecendo-se para pagar alguma coisa e depois aumentando o valor da compra com a desculpa de que:"Se todo mundo é filho-da-puta eu também posso ser", vai para a cadeia. E se a mesma pessoa que tem atitudes tão dignificantes, por acaso tiver a cara-de-pau de reclamar da corrupção do governo, será sentenciada à prisão perpétua.

Brasília, 28/03/2002 – Na hora em que todos os países estão saindo, o Brasil resolveu entrar na era nuclear. O Palácio do Planalto anunciou ontem que o pré-teste da Bomba H tupiniquim já foi marcado. Depois de muita discussão, foi decidido por unanimidade que a eficiência do armamento será testadada no prédio-sede do Detran de São Paulo. Se comprovada a destruição em massa, todos os outros Detrans do Brasil também levarão bomba. Angra 1 e Angra 2 terão igualmente o mesmo destino. As sedes dos Tribunais de Contas dos Municípios, ao que parece, estão sendo cogitados como um próximo alvo. E se tudo der realmente certo, Brasíla não escapará. Oremos.

Brasília, 27/03/2002 – O Ministério do Trabalho resolveu apertar o cerco às empresas que ainda exploram o trabalho escravo, em particular agências de propaganda e redações de jornais e revistas. Fiscais de Direitos Humanos serão designados para fazer visitas surpresas a esses locais. Se após às 20:00 hs ainda houver funcionários trabalhando e esse não for o horário de seu turno, as agências serão obrigadas a dobrar o salário do funcionário por seis meses e oferecer imediatamente um mês de férias. Se a visita for feita às 3:00 da manhã e ainda houver algum funcionário trabalhando, que não seja o segurança da noite, a empresa terá que triplicar o salário do funcionário por três anos e oferecer imediatamente dois meses de férias com passagem e hospedagem paga em alguma localidade do Caribe. Se a empresa for reincidente, o presidente será preso e obrigado a freqüentar novamente escolas para aprender a administrar o tempo das pessoas e negociar prazos com os clientes.

Curso de batedor ...
Pra que serve um curso de batedor ? Pra bater mais nas pessoas ou pra bater
melhor o bife pra ficar macio...
Realmente não sei e nem entendo por que o nosso amigo PM (batedor) tá
fazendo o curso pra ficar mais sinistro ainda com toda a sua habilidade e malemolência.
O cara é muito sinistro e além do mais nunca caiu e nunca tb bateu
em ninguém. As ruas estão muito mais seguras com ele por aí.
Melhor do que Batman ou outros super-heróis de merda é o nosso
companheiro e protetor. O Batedor !!! (vulgo PM com rodinhas).
A seguir estão algumas fotos tiradas secretamente do nosso herói
no seu dia a dia enfrentando o crime.

Mestre do Borel foi capturado por batida policial
O Mestre do Borel , também conhecido como Mestre do pó, foi preso
por uma batida surpresa quando estava no motel com vários tipos de entorpecentes
e uma "menina" com sotaque paulista com 30 cm de grelo. Estavam numa
espécie de orgia ou bacanal ensandecidos pelos tóxicos.
A "menina" contou aos policiais sobre a forma que foi abordada na
rua e convencida a ir com o traficante pro motel. Mestre se aproveitou do vício
da pequena Michele e a marginalizou.
A mim só resta o desprezo e o ódio quando ouço uma história
tão vil e cheia de sordidez.

Será que Leolito saíra de seu mais novo emprego (apenas 1 męs) ?
Será que ele deve trocar a incomun oportunidade de trabalhar no ramo off-shore dentro de uma plataforma com 100 homens ?
Ou ele deve pegar o trampo concursado do Banco do Brasil que tem um futuro mais seguro e promissor ...
Por favor expressem-se e coloquem sua opiniăo no post .
E foda-se pra geral (seguindo a moda da Pripa) !!!

SEOcontent type='html'SEOFesta da verdade !!!
A festa de comemoraçăo do aniversário dos gęmeos , Rezende e Capixaba acabou de forma divertida e sincera. Baixou no nosso amigo Lufe (vulgo Nareba quebrada) o espírito da Márcia Goldsmith (eu nem sabia que tinha morrido) e começou a arguir sobre a fidelidade dos casais presentes. E acabou recebendo respostas tipo :
- traiu , contou e casou ...
- tenho amnésia pra esse tipo de assunto ...
-nunca traí (todos os homens presentes , menos eu )...
-traio sim. Sempre traio ...
Foi muito maneiro. Tirando o fato que metade da festa queria bater no enfermo depois da sessăo do "jogo da verdade"
