He's obviously fun to watch, but in an era of narcissistic NBA superstars (cough, Lebron, cough, Howard, cough Paul), Rose is breath of fresh air. After signing his mega deal yesterday, all he could talk about was working hard, playing hard, and winning a championship with the Bulls. It's amazing how humble he is.

He's the single reason I don't rip on the NBA right now.

My favorite pro athlete, hands down. These two clips will show you why.

A couple more $$.

If you pick a Tuesday night Toronto game or something like that it won't be too bad.

When his contract is up a team from LA will give him $3-4 million more a year and they will tug at his heart. Then his mom will rip the Bulls because he left. But it will be ok because God told him to sign it.

I'm kidding if course. But Rose is now hands down my favorite athlete. Replacing that one Guy we all used to like.

$25 for standing room might be the best I can do.

A quick look at Stub Hub makes that look doable.

Rose can jump so high, he can high-five God whenever he feels like it.
