Quick segment of a young Ginobili Interview

by the little o on Jul 3, 2009 12:29 AM CDT Comment 12 comments

I found a very quick segment of an interview done on young Manu Ginobili. Considering, my man crush on him, it was great to see, despite how short it is. Perhaps some of you might have seen this before on youtube, but maybe you haven't.

So anyways, I'll translate since it's in spanish:

Reporter: There are coaches that think that of the 3 Ginobili's the littlest one is the one that will go the farthest.

little o's young man crush: I don't think so, but, it could turn out be.

Reporter: Do you have confidence in yourself?

little o's young man crush: Yes I have a lot confidence in myself.

That's it, really short, I know. But I'm glad to see that he never, ever lost that confidence, and that he was also so humble in not thinking, or at least stating that he will go farther basketball-wise than his older brothers.

note: the little o does not have a man crush on young Ginobili. That would make me both homo for Ginobili and a pedophile. Lets get that straight (no pun intended). AAahhh! It's Chris Hansen!!

Ed. note: fixed the format to embed the video.

no prob. And it’s OK to have a mancrush on Manu, trust me.

Nice find, little o.

Just a couple of hints for next time. We accept our gay brothers and sisters and usually show our love on this site by including this line when talking about man love “not that there’s anything wrong with that.”

Seriously, we should have a survey on how many of our male brethren have a man crush on one Emanuel David Ginobili. I’m guessing upwards of 75%.

I would have it at over 90% myself, although I think Hill cut into that a little last year.

You can still have full-fledged man crushes on both The Exception and Cubits. One does not cancel out the other.

thanks bellasa, I hope I didn’t offend anyone, that surely wasn’t my intention. In fact, one of my best friends is gay, and there’s nothing wrong with that. He’s actually a great wing man when trying to pick up chicks. Of course, I too must be his wing man when he wants to pick up dudes (TMI i’m sure, so i’ll stop). Anyways, I’ll make sure that I do that from now on.

I think CapHIll is right, probably over 90. That makes me wonder about other team’s sites, do they have a designated man crush player (Lakers if obvious) but what about the hard teams, like, say Golden State, Knicks? I’m also a knicks fan, but i have no idea.

I can just see the conversations now:

“Hey, who’s that new guy on the team? Is he a SG or a SF?”

“No, he’s the designated man crush.”

It’s not something I’d boast about I guess, but I’ll take different, new and awkward any day as opposed to same, old, and complacent. It does make for some crazy stories sometimes too.
