Snippy, Snippy

Quote of the Week

From the ever-so-delicate sports section of the Chron, a quote from Seattle Sonic Vernon Maxwell, expressing his displeasure to Scotty Pippen: "Stop [complaining]! You better not be guarding me when you come out here 'cause I'm gonna bust your [butt]. You ain't in Houston and you're still crying like a [girl]!"

Okay, "[complaining]" we can pretty well guess is a euphemism for "bitching." And "[butt]" is a more acceptable term for "ass," we suppose. But "[girl]"? Did Maxwell say "bitch"? Or "pussy"? Or what? What word did the Chron editors decide was a synonym for "girl"? Should all girls be offended?

We don't know. We sure do like the thought of the sports desk sitting around discussing the matter, though.

He's bad. He's out there. And he appreciates your help. E-mail the News Hostage at rich.connelly@houstonpress.com should the spirit or our local media so move you.
