This is a good idea....the business extends prior, during, and after the games. They were a uniform during the games, right. Wearing suits and looking more professional as a mandate is becoming more of the norm in most business. A lot of companies are getting away from casual Friday's, Mondays etc....Will it change the perception of the fans...who knows...is it for the best, I guess we'll see.
The Spurs are already great guys who are awesome to our community.
I think we are fine as is.
If Stern wants to address the behavior and appearance of certain teams who are seriously falling short, then he should deal with them on an individual basis.
I think this is wrong. I think it should be up to the teams not the nba. However, I guess since some teams can not grow the heck up and dress like a bunch of punks they ruin it for everyone. Stern must think this is high school

Our guys may not dress G.Q. for interviews, but they always look nice.
And I honestly don't know of any team whose players are better to the fans than the Spurs are.

The Spurs are such good guys that they will adopt any new league policy without any complaint.
To me that just proves my point: The Spurs already have their class act together and should not be bothered.
It doesn't really matter if the Spurs are "good boys" or not. Any changes like this are for the public image of the league as a whole. The league would never give a dress code to one team and not to another based on off/on the court misbehavior.
They are obviously just attempting to distance themselves from the "gangsta" clothing/image that many NBA players wear. And to me, it's perfectly fine to request an employee dress a certain way when they are on company time.
Yeah, the image, but not necessarily the "gansta". Actions will still speak louder than clothes.Quote:

I think artest should wear his birthday suit and see what stern says!
It is possible that I am overreacting to the whole dress code thing. I could live with seeing Rasho in a nice suit night after night. = ) Oh baby!
I think my real deal is that I dislike Stern and resent his added interference with our team.
Could be. I have no problem with the dress code in itself, I just think there are more pressing issues. Kori is right though, an employer does have the right to set such a code on company time. I don't think its the sole indicator of professionalism but I do think it is a step in the right direction. Just my .02.Quote:

He'll need it to "greet the fans and community groups on game nights".Quote:

Tpark, you're a racist.
Suits don't mean shit. A sport coat doesn't mean shit. Jeans don't mean shit.
Do you wear a sportcoat when you operate that tiltawhirl?
How come carney girls have no teeth, is that a requirement?
WTF over.
That it quite possibly the stupidest thing I have ever read on this message board.Quote:
