The great Scott was at watching the Rockets-Lakers game on Sunday when Slovenian national Bostjan Nachbar “got into it with Karl Malone,” as he put it. Not being a fan of Malone, he cheered for the Slovenj Gradec-born forward, which we of course appreciate.
Scott kindly pointed me to some pictures of their scuffle, in which Nachbar managed to tear Malone’s jersey. (Scroll to the bottom to see.)
Malone said he would bring the torn jersey home to his kid, who’s “going to love it.”
The Lakers won 92:88.
General Maister, who saved lower Styria from a fate worse than death: Austria.
Hip Hop Virus has a large collection of Slovenian graffiti. For your convenience, it’s divided into legal and illegal. The legal ones seem to be generally less-rushed, and better crafted, than the illegal ones.
I usually dislike graffiti, especially of the “I love Vesna!” or “I hate world!” variety. These guys seem to hate it too. The portraits, particularly by Ratt One, are nicely done. His portrait of the Slovenian general Rudolf Maister is easily my favorite. The 3D nudes are probably a close second.
