BEg2 Vip vis a vis vanilla / Sprewell & mustard

[Michael Bailey]

The tawdry episode on VHS contrasts with the nicey-nice feeuhnt-uh-sees of
Typhphani et al.

That Maxine is somewhat averse to both is an interesting clue to her
psychology / (“she’s seen it all and doesn’t like any of it?”) but maybe
not as much as choosing a Sprewell 8 jersey for bedtime wear.

Latrell Sprewell earned a 68 game suspension in 1997, when his coach yelled
at him to “put a little mustard” on a pass in practice for the Golden State
Warriors. Not in the mood for criticism, he dragged and choked the coach.
He did make an impressive comeback in his career after being traded to the
Knicks. In 2000-2001 he made the All-Star team.

Admiring what exactly, Maxine - the temper or the comeback, or both?
