    Only today I found out that my name appeared in the Wall Street Journal back in 2003 when an article was written about me in the San Antonio Express:


    "The Mavs' opponent, the San Antonio Spurs, haven't seen a Mr. May performance from David Robinson in some time. Mr. Robinson is past his prime and playing the last games of his career -- he'll retire after the season. But for many, he remains the very soul of the Spurs, and for good reason. " If you want to measure the far-reaching impact of David Robinson's life, look across the Atlantic Ocean, 5,100 miles to the east, all the way to the city of Weert, Holland. There, in the dead of night, a 15-year-old boy caught the light of Robinson's glow. There, at 2 a.m., Jurgen Aspers watched the Admiral play on television. There, in the flickering light of his bedroom, Jurgen began to dream."

    So begins Ken Rodriguez's beautiful tale in the San Antonio Express. Call it a basketball love story".

    Crazy man, cool though.

    I just found out I was published on a ton of random Japanese and Chinese websites. Ah, behold the power of Google!

    Too bad you didn't get one of the WSJ hand-drawn pictures of you with the article.

    From the "how things change" department, from the same article:

    Out west, Dirk Nowitzki is coming into his own as the Mavericks' Mr. May. "In the current NBA landscape, there is no better win-or-go-home player than Dirk Nowitzki," writes Gerry Fraley in the Dallas Morning News.
    So ol' Ger's not doing Mav stories anymore, is he?
