I think I mentioned this before:
There's a Spanish (Argentinian) concept called
CholismoIt's a concept widely known but probably nobody in the history of Sports pushed it so far as Diego 'El Cholo' Simeone.
He's an argentinian european football (soccer) ex-player (he played alongside Diego Armando Maradona) now coach for
Atlético de Madrid, a competetive Spanish team, at times capable to look eye to eye best soccer teams in the world.
The concept ultimately named after him,
Cholismo, is perfectly summarized in just a couple of sentences:
El Cholo wrote:There ain't such a thing as 'tomorrow's game'.
It doesn't exist.
We don't care about it, we don't think about it, we don't know about it.
Only today's game exist.
Nothing else.
In English would be: 'We'll cross that bridge once we arrive to that river but we cannot cross it before that'.
Well: that would be my motto, my guidance and my spirit animal from now on 'til Draft Night...
...or 'til Phoenix Suns Front Office officially announces Ricky Rubio will be traded.
Whatever happens the first.
Officially, mark you.
I don't give a fu*k about whatever Adrian BoinaEroski, Stephen Wind Horse or Ricky Rubio's wife could leak about the whole thing before an official statment be made.
Until that date, I won't care about that trade, I won't think about that trade and I won't know about that trade.
Next Rubio's franchise doesn't exist.
Only Black Troll Suns Nomads exists.
I'm not that active lately but whatever I post in the meantime will make no reference to this particular subject.
Even more, I make a promise:
If Rubio stays here next season, we'll change the name of the thread.
No more
Black Troll stuff.
In that hypotethical case, I can't promise a new name will sound much better to some ears but I swear it will be different.
