与阿森纳的亲密接触

说实话,你不得不承认,在全世界有着众多球迷的阿森纳就是一个典型的"矛盾体"。从主教练温格个人,再到球队的风格都是脱离世俗的,但力争唯美的他们却总是倒在残酷的现实世界中。阿森纳之"纳",在于海纳百川,在"枪手"阵中,有来自18个不同足协的球员,但偏偏"枪手"们总喜欢在夏天低调前往奥地利,躲在阿尔卑斯山下避暑,而非像他们的对手曼联和切尔西那样周游四方。好在这个夏天阿森纳终于开窍了,作为当今足坛商业运作最成功的俱乐部之一,这家北伦敦"百年老店"意识到了中国市场之庞大,于是乎他们在16年后再度访华,给中国的众多"枪手"拥趸留下了这段西子湖畔的精彩轶事。

与NBA的第一次亲密接触

选秀创纪录“状元”在中国中国球员姚明在2002年NBA选秀大会上第一位被休斯顿火箭队选中,成为NBA历史上第一位没有美国高中或大学打球经历的“状元秀”。这本身似乎就预示着今年的选秀与众不同。近年来虽然NBA的国际化势头越来越强劲,2001~2002年赛季结束时,NBA中共有51位来自30个国家的国际球员,2000年选秀大会,破纪录地有14名国际球员被选中,但国际球员成为“状元秀”,姚明还是第一人,应该说,这不仅是中国人
