Black Pearl hits Ozhoops thread
Someone starts a thread on OzHoops about a potential revival of the Canberra Cannons and next thing you know, the Black Pearl, Cal Bruton, is in there dishing out some interesting reading:
Thread: Cannons Back in the NBL
His first response is towards the bottom of the opening page. He takes a bit of a Q&A later in the thread too.
Maybe there's a potential issue with precedent at being so accessible to the public (e.g., ending up having to answer to every single rumour), but I like hearing those in the know (the coaches, former players and so on) opening up a bit and giving more than we typically see in a newspaper article. We've seen something similar with this forum when Ken Cole posted from the US with a couple of his thoughts on the Sixers roster back in his day.
Gotta love him sticking up for his son:
CJ has 2 Rings, Co Captains Australia and soon will be announced as International Player of the year and you're still hating on him.
