No Hablo Ingles
August 20, 2008 by Mike
And people think the French are wimps. Try the Spanish Basketball team, especially one Juan Carlos Navarro, who refused to answer questions after the Americans butt-whipping, and when Boston Globe writer Marc Spears finally got a hold of Navarro he said ”my English not very good”. I really hope Paul Gasol and the rest of those racist Spaniards go down quicker than Clay Aiken at a gay bar:
But Spain guard Juan Carlos Navarro, formerly of the Memphis Grizzlies, did come out to talk to the Spanish media for about five minutes in the mixed zone interview area. After he was done with his home country folks, I asked him a question. He responded by saying, “My English not very good.”
I told him, “Well, it was really good when you were playing for the Grizzlies. I interviewed you once by your locker.”
Navarro was stunned when I called him out and I could see that he understood every word. If they beat the Americans, I’m sure his English would have been better than mine.
