Maybe they won't have a season. Let them get a real job and see what it's really like!
ReplyDeleteThis isn't like football with nearly 50 players per team to share the $$$. They only have 12 players per team for goodness sakes. Athletes are so blasted selfish. Let them clean toilets for a few months. That's all the skills most of them have outside of basketball.
ReplyDeleteThese too highly paid athletes just dont know when to quit. They make millions of dollars to play a game and want more. I would like to see them live on the average Joe's salary for a while. Then maybe they would change their minds about their greed. Just like with football, Im a fan but if the season didnt happen I would just find something else to entertain me. Sad, sad, sad.
ReplyDeleteYou people are morons. Funny that you espouse capitalism then say these guys make too much money. Ha ha ha. These guys keep the stadiums packed, the tv/media deals coming,and the fan merchandise flying off the shelf which ads up to big bucks for the owners and investors. But they shouldn't hold out for as big a cut as possible? Please turn in your "conservative/republican" card along with your capitalist sticker.
ReplyDeleteSports have become no longer about the love of the game and doing what you love to do. It's ALL about the MONEY.
ReplyDeleteI hope there is no season. I hope there's no more seasons until they all wake up and realize what they've done.
GREED, plain and simple!
