Bring On The Major Leagues


Who knew? Ex- (or is it Re-) Pavement and current Jick Stephen Malkmus is way into fantasy basketball.

A snippet:
ON GUYS HE WOULDN'T DRAFT BECAUSE OF WHO THEY ARE:
Off the top of my head I'd skip Melo, Baron, Garnett, Artest, Yao, Kobe, Pau, Boozer, Vince Carter, Marion, Brad Miller, Zach Randolph and Jason Kidd if at all possible. Those cats are not my bag.


(Couldn't agree more with almost all of those.)

ON BANDS "SELLING OUT" WITH MOVIE PLACEMENTS, ETC:
No problems - to each his own. Gotta put bread on the table, within reason. It's like owning Kobe. Sometimes you gotta do it.


And his team is called Widespread Perkins. Amazing.

Apparently Built To Spill's Doug Martsch is in the league too. I bet he owns a ton of Blazers. And some Portland players too (ba dum tsss).
