That was the first sentence in an April 23 Miami Herald article.
It just got stranger.
For viewpagers unfamiliar, or who, like the undersigned, done forgot, Chris Bosh has not been playing basketball for the Miami "Heat" since February 9. He has been, and continues to be, per Miami management, out indefinitely with some medical condition. No one, officially or unofficially, from management or from Bosh has said why. They have given one why not: it is not blood clots, which truncated Bosh's season last year.
This is truly a matter of first impression in a world, the sports world, where when a star athlete has a cold the public is told how many times he has sneezed.
Okay, well, we're long past the strangeness of these sounds of silence. It just got stranger:
Chris Bosh reaffirms desire to play; Heat says he's out indefinitely-ESPN headline
Huh? The player, who Miami signed to a max contract last year says he is fit to play, wants to play, to earn some of those max bucks, and the paymaster says no, sit home and collect our checks.
Bosh traveled with the team to Charlotte where the "Queens" made the "Heat" their bitch, the first time he has traveled with them in a while, the last time was to Charlotte too but there is too much foreground weirdness here to be peaking into the background for yesterday Bosh's wife started one of those things, hashtags or whatever, like #BlackLivesMatter, #BringBoshBack and Bosh posted a video of himself practiving his shooting in Miami's arena with the caption or legend or whatever "Still got it" to which management responded of a fashion "Yeah, he's still got it," whatever it is that has kept him out, "There is no update. He is still out indefinitely."
Too weird.
