Hey, man, I already said this.

But good work on the Iglesias/Anthony thing. I must say, it really chaps my hide when people lump in all Spanish-speakers together as if there are no differences between any two of them. It's like "Eh, Chinese, Japanese -- what's the difference?" It's ignant, I tell you -- ignant.

I thought Marc Anthony was Italian.

It really burns me up when people assume I'm American. Infuriating.

I'm not making fun, I think his mom was Samoan.

I may be the only one who thinks this, but doesn't he bear a rather remarkable resemblance to the drummer from Barenaked Ladies?

Uh, the guy on the left, in case you're wondering. . .

Well, there's something to be said for actually being able to connect when nepotism takes you to the plate. Iglesias is no Michael Powell.

Maybe Enrique and W should get together and congratulate themselves on their home runs.

I believe that's his cousin: Marc Antony.

I lump them together because they both suck, not b/c they both speak Spanish.

You obviously know nothing of salsa music if you think Marc Anthony sucks.

Pikers GALORE on this board! (Usually, I'm one of them, just not on this particular subject.)

Since we are working on the database together, I would like to add "forgetting to put a bandaid on cut on finger."

What is up with this?

Can we just have Kobe lobotomized? Was Vanessa Bryant born yesterday? Did Malone say something untoward to her that I missed? Does Kobe's decision to share all of this make you want to retch? Does Kobe make you want to retch?

FWIW, the LA Times has decided that if Kobe insists on dragging us all into his little soap opera, then fine, goddammit -- let's look at it in a little piece that should be called Vanessa Bryant: Team Wrecker. (Spree: reg requ'd)

• Seldom has someone insisted on privacy more while behaving in ways that guaranteed him less.
  
  There are places we're not supposed to go, but we're continually being dragged into Bryant's personal life, la vida Kobe, and finding out w-a-a-a-y more than we want to know.
  
  This time it's the split between Bryant and erstwhile friend-teammate Karl Malone — and Malone's announcement that he and the Lakers are through — over what Bryant has said were inappropriate comments made by Malone to Bryant's wife, Vanessa.
  
  With Kobe and Vanessa, it always spills over into his career and has for five tumultuous years. The Lakers have not only been sucked into the tumult, they were reconfigured — or put another way, all but destroyed.
  
  Since Kobe met and became engaged to Vanessa Laine in the summer of 2000, he has split from everyone in his original inner circle — parents, sisters, extended family and agent, not to mention Shaquille O'Neal and Phil Jackson.

I'm quite proud of this.

Yay! This is going to be a fun and funny thread. O.K., here's mine:

Going out to get lunch and forgetting your access card. DOH!
