Dear Reeves Nelson, I read your response to Sports Illustrated‘s article which prominently featured you being a very large anus (even for Los Angeles) to a number of people and playing a big role in destroying the most storied program in college basketball (other than Indiana). I even wrote a piece for this very blog stating the incidents revealed in the article were very overblown and didn’t say anything most people didn’t already know.

And in the best tradition of condescending blog-writing, I have a bit of advice as well.
