Mark Richardson: A Great Kiwi Embarrassment

New Zealand has had a pretty good bout against Coronavirus and arguably has made the best response out of every country in the world. Jacinda Ardern, love her or hate her, has made a pretty good effort out of this all and I think we can drop political colours to acknowledge it, but there are those arrogant morons who refuse to acknowledge any of what has been done is good, and one of those people is named Mark Richardson.

Mark, to his credit, contributed a lot to the success of New Zealand Cricket in his days of playing, but beyond that, I'm not sure we can count hosting The Block NZ as any sizable success for him, I mean that show was only good for what? One season? But yeah, he's alright when it comes to cricket and I'll give him that much before I absolutely do what needs to be done.

"NEEEEOOM"
- Mark Richardson


For some reason, Mark Richardson seems to think he is some national icon that is loved by everyone, but realistically, he is a retired sportsman who has turned into a news personality that almost nobody likes. He loves to be in front of it all, so I don't know if anything he says is genuine or if he's seeking more attention for whatever is inside that grey, balding head of his. According to NewsHub (someone thought that was a great name for 6:00 news), Mark thinks he can do a better job of being a Prime Minister than Aunty Cindy. I'll tell you what, no you can't. Remember when you pulled a muscle while playing cricket? So why, seriously, why don't you just shut up and leave us all to our lockdown. You stink and the only reason nobody thinks you're an ass hole is that you're not as much of one as the main host of your show, Duncan Garner. I bet you and him would make one shit political party, seeing as you want to be PM.

But anyway... Get lost, Mark. Nobody likes you.

Two Months Without The NBA

It has now been two months since Adam Silver decided the NBA would go on hiatus because of the Coronavirus after Rudy Gobert was announced as the first positive test the league had. This was found out moments before the start of a game where the Utah Jazz would play the Thunder in Oklahoma City. Since then, the league has not been able to return and Adam Silver has made no comment on where or when the NBA could return to finish the season.  This man saved the NBA by doing his job. There have been a lot of rumours about when the NBA could return and where it would be held, but Shaq came to comment and essentially said, "scrap the season." This is pretty logical if you read into his comment, especially because of people like Rudy Gobert who love to treat Corona like it's some sort of joke. Who's laughing now, Rudy? You told a kid who roasted you about it to "go to school" even though schools are shut, you numb nut. Don't joke about it if you can't hand...

Before COVID-19: The Philadelphia 76ers

It is no secret that I am a big fan of the Philadelphia 76ers. I trusted Sam Hinkey and what he tried with "The Process" and a third-place finish in the East (51-31) for 2018-19 was exactly what everyone wanted for Philadelphia but after quite possibly the regular season we all wanted, our postseason was over after one clutch shot from Kawhi Leonard. To get over how butt-hurt everyone was after that game seven loss, everyone's attention turned to the 2019-20 NBA Season. The preseason that saw the 76ers dominate everyone they faced until they decided to roll over and die against the Wizards, so hopes were pretty high for what was looking to be a successful season. The first game of the season saw Philly beat Boston 107-93, a good showing that pleased a Wells Fargo Center crowd in Philadelphia. The next two games were played on the road against Detroit and Atlanta which anyone with any sense would think these would be relatively easy for an 'all-star' team like th...

Vince "Air Canada" Carter Would've Played His Last Regular Season Game Tomorrow

Vince Carter, current Atlanta Hawks small forward and shooting guard, was set to play his final regular-season game tomorrow in his NBA career. His professional career started when he was drafted fifth overall in 1998 by the Golden State Warriors, but then traded to Toronto in exchange for the fourth pick, Antawn Jamison. They were both Juniors out of North Carolina. Along with Jamison, Vince was drafted in a class that included Paul Pierce, Dirk Nowitzki, Rashard Lewis and Mike Bibby. Vince Carter This post is a bit different from the usual crap you see on Yammer. But here are some really impressive numbers that won't be able to sum up who Vince Carter was as a basketball player. Vince, at this point in time, has played in 1541 NBA games, averaging 16.7 points a game, 4.3 Rebounds and 3.1 Assists. He has contributed over 25,000 points to scoreboards across the NBA in his career and swatted 888 shots as recorded blocks in his career. Stats are impressive and Vince's s...
