At Last, Bobby Jackson Becomes a Real Superhero
If Bobby Jackson's storied Sacramento stay indeed ends this season, the final act couldn't be more fitting.
The most beloved of Kings exudes bravery in his return from injury, playing despite a fractured face that doctors would have fixed had he let them. Instead, he dons a protective purple mask and looks the part of hoops hero. "Purple Haze," as one fan suggests his comic book name should be, or perhaps "The Purple Protagonist."
That scene may unfold tonight at Arco Arena, where the veteran who broke his left cheekbone against Cleveland on March 13 is a game-time decision against Memphis.
We always knew what he had deep inside him. Vanquish the Grizzlies!

Hero
To the tune of “Hero” by Enrique Inglesias
Let me be your hero,
Would you play,
If I asked you to play?
Would you run,
And pass behind your back?
Would you dive,
If you saw me diving?
And would you save the loose ball, tonight?
Would you tremble,
If I touched your cheek?
Would you laugh?
Or would you be weak?
Now would you die,
For the team you love?
Just beat the Grizz, tonight.
You can be my hero, Bobby.
You can mask away the pain.
I will cheer for you forever.
You can take my breath away.
Would you swear,
That you’ll always play hard?
Or would you slack?
Would you run and shoot?
With a broken cheek?
Have you lost your mind?
I don’t care…
You’re playing, tonight.
You can be your hero, Bobby.
You can mask away the pain.
I will cheer for you forever.
You can take my breath away.
Oh, you just wanted to play
You just wanted to play.
Oh yeah.
With a broken cheek?
Have you lost your mind?
Well I don’t care…
You’re playing, tonight.
You can be my hero, Bobby.
You can mask away the pain oh yeah
I will cheer for you forever.
You can take my breath away.
You can be my hero, Bobby.
You can mask away the pain.
And I will cheer for you forever.
You can take my breath away.
You can take my breath away.
You can be my hero…

Thanks section
As I was writing this one, I thought it was even funnier if I imagined that it was Natt singing this to B-Jax.

Ha!
One of those stage settings where they are seated on stools, with a dim oval spot illuminating each of them. I’m gettin’ a little misty just thinking about it.

Either that, or...
Natt, in a timeout, serenading Bobby as the rest of the team stands there, awkwardly, not knowing what to do. Ideally, Natt would be on one knee.
Yeah, this is the sort of weird stuff that runs through my mind all day long. Just cause it makes me giggle.

I don't know...
Not sure I could handle the pressure. I’d end up in a downhill spiral of hard drugs, prostitutes, and animal cruelty.

I happen to know
that you can enjoy #1 and #2 without resorting to #3, if that makes a difference.

No mistakes in the tango, darling. Not like life. Simple. That's what makes the tango so great. If you make a mistake, and get all tangled up, you just tango on.....
I am the stone that builder refused..I am the visual...The inspiration..That made lady sing the blues....I'm the spark that makes your idea bright.....The same spark that lights the dark....So that you can know your left from your right...I am the ballot in your box....The bullet in your gun...The inner glow that lets you know...To call your brother son....The story that just begun...The promise of what's to come...And I'm 'a remain a soldier till the war is won....

Bobby's already my Hero.
Action Jackson is his name. 4th quarter comebacks are his game.

and teach them how to war!
