1. I'm not sure why David Stern cares.
2. I'm not sure why any of you care that this rule was made. Seriously.
Well it's not like I truly care, or that it's going to affect my daily life. No .
But this is a forum, I was bored at the time, started a thread about it because it's a stupid rule. And it's not only meant to be about this sole issues, but also the pussification of the nba as a whole.
Also, the past week in this forum has been only a bunch of laker trolls starting re ed threads at really high rates. Sorry for trying to change that.
lol at this
If any of you guys worked in big business, you'll understand how important brand is to some companies. I doubt they care about upside down head bands, but once you put the NBA logo on there, marketing and legal will go crazy. Ya, it's stupid, but I see where they're coming from. Misuse your brand and you can lose the right to protect it legally.
New rule turns Rondo’s headband habit upside-down
Rajon Rondo has stopped wearing a headband after the league ins uted a new rule that prohibits players from wearing one with the logo upside-down.
Rondo had become a familiar sight with the sweatband, which he wore upside-down for unknown reasons. But NBA spokesman Tim Frank said a league rule prohibits players from wearing the headbands inside-out or upside-down.
So Rondo ditched the headband altogether.
Rondo wouldn’t comment Friday night on the reasons for the new look.
The new rule was first reported by ESPN.com.
Wow...what a ing joke..but still, what's wrong with just wearing it the right way? The 1st time I saw someone rockin' the headband with the logo upside down I was kinda like "WTF why does he wear it like that?"
I know. I can't believe America even elected Bush. No different than Stern in the NBA.
well, te ally we didn't...
stern.
Lol @ this "respect for the game" crusade he's running. Good luck with getting the players to agree to take a 33% paycut also you stubby got.
The crackdown on in game demonstrative displays was a long time coming. It's tightened up the game considerably. Permission/encouragement to act that way prior only accelerated the behavior, refined it (like end zone celebrations). I'm glad it's over and they've been forced to actually play ball without periodic timeouts to show their ass.
Stern is genius. He's taken the game and turned it into a disciplined business.
Mr. Stern, shouldn't you have something better to do besides trolling a random NBA forum?
No, after getting routed by the Viets, I retired to my country estate in the barrio, Phoenix, Arizona, where I stomp mudholes by day, and walk 'em dry by night.
Petty detail but still make ridicule of the NBA by their own stars. It also sets to tone of discipline to avoid bigger problems in the future.
I hate David Stern. The end.
