"Think I'd better let it go/Looks like another love T.K.O.!"
One-half of this nutty weekend involved a nice trip down the Garden State Parkway into Atlantic City for Kelly Pavlik's first defense of his middleweight crown for Sports NY Style (look for article tomorrow) against British contender Gary Lockett. In all honestly, the slideshow lasted longer than the fight (TKO in the third as Lockett's corner threw in the towel), but to have been ringside for a major title bout was pretty cool nonetheless.
The Yankees, of course, took up the other half of this weekend. No pics on Joba Chamberlain's second start. Sorry. Back to work.
Say What?!?!: Ah, what the heck. Just enjoy it.
Perception is reality, the saying goes. Modern players can never transcend time, athletes only care about the money and the fan is never wrong. Yet, all you need to do is dig a little deeper to find the truth. As a freelance sportswriter, my job is to give the audience a story around what just happened. As a consumer, I expect that sports will always provide more than I bargained for. As a fan, my hopes are to be enlightened by more than points. Welcome to the mind of a sports scribe.
