Since Will decided it was appropriate to create a post tag entitled “Steve Nash is baller status” the other day, I think I’m obliged to ensure that said tag is used more than once on this site. Therefore, I present to you all Eric Martin’s Steve Nash tale.

Sigh. If only he was an American.
PS – For the record, I have a lot of “baller status” post tags floating around.Report
@Will, I think I feel a meme coming on.Report
Who gives a rats you know what for what Nash or any other foreigner thinks of the AZ law? If he cares so much, why doesn’t he go to that area and see what illegal immigration has done?Report
Nash has played in Phoenix for eight of the past fourteen years and was in Dallas for the other six, so it’s hard to call him ignorant of the southwest.Report
@Mike Schilling,
Yes, I’m sure the millionaire Nash has some knowledge of the problem, unfortunately I doubt it is the result of any real experience. Also, just b/c Nash plays there doesn’t mean he really lives there. Phoenix is the kidnapping capital of the US thanks to the illegals and the drugs but I doubt that Nash has to worry.Report
I’d love to get the millionaires out of politics too. I presume that’s one reason you supported Obama against McCain.Report
@Mike Schilling,
With his money, Nash can glide through life not really knowing the effects the illegals have but ready to make a pronouncement about something he knows nothing about. That in and of itself is bad enough but it is even worse since Nash is a foreigner, as if we need them to tell us how to run our country.Report
@Scott, It seems we’re all too eager to tell others how to run their countries. Turn around seems fair play. So, where do you live that gives you authority on AZ?Report
@Cascadian,
If the US does tell Mexico how to handle their own illegals, which we don’t, then they clearly don’t listen. Their laws are much harder on illegals than the American laws they whine about.Report
McCain’s (wife’s) money insulates him from even knowing how many houses he owns.
On another subject, do you have any opinion about the way women were treated by the Taliban?Report
Apparently Atty Gen. Eric Holder hasn’t even read the new AZ law. I doubt Steve Nash has read it either.

Now we learn that Janet Naplitano hasn’t read the law either. However that doesn’t stop form criticizing it.
