Okay, so Derrick Rose will maybe never again play basketball like such a firefly, but that doesn’t mean you should stop believing in the triumph of the canny and soulful: for example, friend of the GIANT Heather Christle has won The Believer‘s 2011 Poetry Award for her book The Trees The Trees. Congratulations, Heather!

      Heather’s book will make you okay, Matt, I swear it’s true. It will even do it without making you Okay Matt, a more meh version of yourself, which is what most books do to people.

      I’m just worried about D-Rose, ya know? I feel the sports-fan equivalent of smote.
