Chris Paul being carted off on a stretcher

I'm sorry, Shane, I just overreacted. Hate to see this happen to one of best players in NO sports history, it hurts, not because his importance to the Hornets playoff chances but that unlike other media-obsessed NBA stars, Paul's a rare throwback to when players were celebrities for their playing styles, competitiveness, high gaming IQ. Arguably singled-handedly saved the Hornets in New Orleans 3 years ago, aside from Brees, there haven't been many who've made such an enormous impact individually in NO sports history, and La.(and) NO's legacy of producing great homegrown talent in all 3 major sports is well-known.
