    The NBA may end their season? And? Who cares? This is news why?
    well, I'm an avid NBA fan and have been for quite sometime......all the way back to to the mid 50s.....but I've just 'bout got a nose full of it now what with guys like magic, lebron and kobe bein' treated like royalty.....don't get me wrong, ain't nothin' prettier than watchin' someone like curry, bird, mchale, parish and jordan get loose and turnin' it on but there's just not enough good to out weigh the bad any more......i'm prob'ly finished with all of 'em. things have changed dramatically in the last 5 years or so.......mac

    Bruce Aryan, head coach of the Tampa Bay Buccaneers,told his team that protesting "didn't do crap". If they really wanted to do some good, go work in the community, put some of their money into the community where it is needed.

    Several college football teams, including Baylor, cancelled practice yesterday to protest.

    Lebron would be singing a "different tune" IF HE ever got to do a rid-along with a police officer patrolling a bad section of a city...until he does...

    wow, Gnat!.....that is so true. that's sort of what happened to Shaq who happens to be a reservist in his home Police Department as are several other NBA players, retired and active....mac

    This all seems so silly to me. I don't believe anyone should have to play a ball game if they don't want to (the days of the Roman gladiators are long over) and, if they don't want to, the Team Owner(s) should simply say, OK, fair enough, no more checks, empty your lockers, pack your stuff, call a cab and leave the property and while you're doing that I will call Security to come and "tresspass" you befor you leave.....mac

    if any of you are confused by what "tresspass you" means, ask one of your peace officer friends.....mac

    I agree, that all sounds very good to me, but...that is not going to happen.
