Bosh, back at Lincoln High School in 2006

Dunno if you've seen Lincoln High School grad Chris Bosh's YouTube sensation, in which the Toronto Raptor begs you to send him to the NBA All-Star Game in New Orleans on February 17. Turns out, some 447,300 have peeked at the video since its posting late last month, and today Sports Illustrated takes notice with a behind-the-scenes look at the Interwebs sensation in which the Dallas native channels "his inner used-car salesman in a pronounced Texas drawl." Here's Richie's terrific piece about Bosh from September '06, and, lookie there, Bosh also has a blog. --Robert Wilonsky
