Yeah, this.
I wonder how much it relates to the above, but I'm quite ready for the Lin thing to be over, not more than 3 days after I was thinking the phenomenon was pretty cool. Now, honestly, I've reached the point where I'm openly rooting for him to fail. I reckon it's part the Jesus thing (grrr Harvard shoulda taught you that God doesn't exist!), part the fact that the Knicks winning streak with him starting is helping the Knicks to quickly catch to my team up in the standings, part that I read a few basketball forums/websites and am completely inundated with the hype, and, related to the last one, part being completely done with looking at words with "Lin" being highlighted in some cute way. The first time I saw "Linsanity", I thought it was cool, but by the 10,000th time of the week, not so much.
But here I am talking about it, so I guess I share 1/300millionth of the blame ...
I guess the good news is that Lin's week didn't start a month earlier, or he might have been voted to be an All-Star starter by like 100 million Chinese, like how Yao was for a couple of years, despite being injured throughout basically the entire season.
