Owen Hargreaves: Basketball Blogger

Turns out Owen Hargreaves really is versatile. He's been supplementing his Bayern Munich wages by writing a blog for the official NBA wesite, as part of their "Blogsquad".

Seems Mr. Hargreaves is about as prolific on his blog as he is in an England shirt though. His first entry was December 14th 2005 and three weeks later the good people at the NBA website are still waiting for his follow-up. Still, he'll have plenty of time on the England bench this summer to catch up. Here are two nuggets of information we found in that sole entry (one interesting, one not so much):

Nugget 1: Hargreaves wears the number 23 shirt at Bayern Munich as a tribute to Michael Jordan.

Nugget 2: Hargreaves uses his transcontinental perspective to tell us that "in general the guys from Europe and South America prefer soccer, I guess."
