“Player of the Week” nominations from Guantanamo Bay, Cuba

6:00 am February 17, 2010, by Michael Carvell

We get emails from all over at the AJC.

This week, there was one that popped in my inbox from Guantanamo Bay, Cuba. You don’t get emails from Cuba every day.

It was from Quincy Jackson, who is in the U.S. Navy. He wanted to nominate his daughter, Lovett’s Tatianna Jackson, for “Player of the Week.” She scored 23 points in a win over Buford.

We don’t do a player of the week, but we’ll make a special exception this week for Mr. Jackson.

Thank you for serving our country.

So, MC:

You’re saying that you don’t do POW; but if you DID do POW, one of the criteria would be the parents’ career?

How does respect for soldiers in uniform have any relevance whatsoever in choosing a POW?
