A slice of crow

I'm not above admitting when I am wrong. And when it comes to Shavlik Randolph, I was wrong. So were about a thousand so-called sports experts.

This summer I wrote what an idiot he was to test the NBA draft and what an overrated stiff I thought he was. I wasn't alone in this thought, by the way.

But he got a helping hand from another estranged Duke alum, Billy King, general manager of the 76ers. And now he is having a very respectable rookie year, having found a niche on the team and rebounding his butt off.

Good luck, Shav. I still think you were an overrated white stiff, but you are drawing a check, so you go on with your bad self.
