It’s a curious sporting world out there, full of curious people doing curious things curiously in such a way that one’s curiosity might curiously infer such people’s curious cases. To wit:
The Curious Case of Sidd Finch [The Red Reporter]
The Curious Case of Gregory Oden [Yahoo! Sports]
The Curious Case of Jose Reyes [Amazing Avenue]
The Curious Case of Benjamin Button Kei Igawa [Yankees Guy]
The Curious Case of Zoilo Versalles [Seamheads]
The Curious Case of Chris Cooley [The Star-Tribune]
The Curious Case of Stephen Curry [Outside the Boxscore]
The Curious Case of Jay Bouwmeester [From the Rink]
The Curious Case of Rick DiPietro and the Smoke and Mirrors of Injury Reporting [Barry Melrose Rocks]
The Curious Case of Robinson Cano [3:10 to Joba]
The Curious Case of Aaron Heilman [Mets Tailgate]
The Curious Case of Fred Hickman [Deadspin]
The Curious Case of Ben Sheets [The Brew Town Beat]
The Curious Case of Britt Barefoot [Deadspin (again)]
The Curious Case of Deon Thompson [Tar Heel Fan]
The Curious Case of the 08-09 Vols [Rocky Top Talk]
The Curious Case of Daniel Klecko [Esquire]
The Curious Case of Vince Young and the Tennessee Titans [Total Titans]
And so on, et cetera, ad infinitum, lest anyone erroneously think we’d overlook those curiosity-piquing cases of Anquan Boldin, Jonathan Papelbon, Shaun Livingston, The Philly Meatbag Who Takes His Movie Dialogue Very Seriously, or Plaxico Burress vs. Marvin Harrison.
So we implore you, what can one do when curiosity ends – when so much in these sporting times becomes curious we in fact forget how to maintain such curiositative bewonderment towards these behavioral curios? Proclaim a certain death, obviously, demanding this Review of Sporting Events Pertinent to the White-Stockinged Baseball Club install moratorium upon such phrase (and all in vain hope others follow suit).
Ah, but such agony there fails to exist another way, some other means to acknowledge the work of a great film-man turning highly-revered literary work into widely-beloved moving pictures featuring the renowned stage player of our time as needed for the chronicles contained in these inter-pages. . . stay tuned, dear readers. Our curious days are but blinks of a celestial eye and our cases mere drops in an ocean of story.
