This is mainly pointed to BRHornet, but really, any Hornetfan feel free to answer.
Considering that your team is owned by Stern/NBA, does that mean you have pledged your allegiance with the owners in this lockout?
How does it feels like to finally be seemingly on the winning side? Are you already savoring what looks to be a sure victory?
God bless.

No means no, 'seppe.
That tact belongs to Luva, El. He invented it. He called BR on it first.
Quit stealin' people's , asshole.
He made a similar post/thread? If so, I missed it, and withdraw this thread.
Lock this up.
son the owners deserve the bigger piece of the pie
Son, you're a team player through and through. Props.
Months ago.
son what are your thoughts on the NBA announcing another asterisk season like 1999 was?
son, with butthurt owners like Gilbert, I think there won't be a season. If we do have an asterisk season, then I really don't know. Unless the Spurs get two amnesty provisions to jettison RJ and Bonner, it probably won't make a difference to me. God bless you and your family, son.
Well, I don't stalk the NBA forums for children like you do. I just missed it.

that's your smarter white half talking
Very similar ethic to what Nietzsche dubbed a slave morality. You're somebody's .
son its the owners who have invested billions of dollars (all together) in order to make the NBA even exist. The owners also represent the thousands of employees who work for all of the teams as well. Now you can and moan with your "give me! give me! give me!" Democrat at ude, but it is the owners who have given these players a platform to play on and earn the ridiculous amounts of money that they are blessed to earn. Especially considering that at least half of the players in the NBA would more than likely be sitting in a prison cell or working at McDonalds if they couldn't ball.
To me it should be 60% to the owners/ thousands of team employees and 40% to the players. For every "star" player in the NBA, there are 10 scrubs getting overpaid.
I know I'm paying over a hundred bucks a game in the chance I might see an owner.![]()
son you realize that most NBA teams rarely turn over a profit because of the outrageous salaries that the players command?
Actually, I do. The owners have been the ones offering these ridiculous contracts though. They probably aren't scrambling for rent either. I guess they are trying to protect themselves from themselves. I don't think there will be any NBA this season. That will definitely make it hard to turn a profit.
They own the clubs and as free Americans are en led to negotiate on their own behalf in a free market. They are not en led to any guarantee.
You sound the justifications from old southern planters. That you parrot their condescending tone is pretty sad.
well then son do you believe the players are en led to a guarantee? they already receive the majority of the revenue to begin with.
As free Americans I believe that the players are afforded the same right to negotiate on their own behalf in a free market.
The thing is that there are maybe 1500 men in the US with the skills, talent and experience required to play at the upper echelons of basketball. Scarcity raises cost.
The reason why I side with the players is because I do not believe that the owners are simply en led to fix the market in their favor. The only one that is asking for the gimmee gimmee guarantee is ownership.
