I wouldn;t know cause I don't give a about football.
david stern on the other hand is ing communist.
All the ing about Stern is a joke. Apparently people have no idea what he has all done for the league, he's been a very good commissioner. Tough and unpopular decisions need to be made when you're in his position.
Hey Obi! Glad to see you again!
How have you been?
this whole "no emotion" thing is way over the top. you have to admit that.
I want to see a GAME I want ot see hte guys react, I want to see the compe ion.
If I wanted to see no emotion, outburst, reaction etc then I would join a quilting circle.
as far as the ANAL ness of the dress code- dear ign lord. ANAL. thats the word. anal. not every dang little detail *needs* to be micromanaged.
and just because a guy does good doesn;t mean he;s nto a .
wassuuuuuuup!
No emotion? You can react with emotion just don't show up the ref in the process. That past few years have been ing ridiculous, I've never seen anybody treated with such disrespect as the refs have been by the players, it's been disgusting.
A bunch of you sound like honorary junior reps for the players association. Just let them do whatever they want, no matter how it hurts the league or it's ratings.
I actually think he's been a great commissioner and appreciate everything he's done. I just don't get what damage is being done by a sweatband near your elbow. I understood the dress code to some extent as they wanted to clean up the appearance of some. But a wristband? Is there a corporate figurehead or NBA big wig sitting in the stands saying, "Hmm.. that wristband is a few inches high. That's looking pretty 'gangsta' to me. I don't mind all those tattoos. But damn if I have to see one more slightly elevated sweatband, I'm going to lose it."
What does a wristband near your elbow even mean? Is it a thuggish gang thing that I don't know about? If I don't know about it, then why would anyone else care?
Well thats cause Cuban is an idiot, and worse he's an idiot with money, and idiots with money are worse than idiots with guns because at least idiots with guns do the world a favor and shoot themseves
Stern should just save himself some time and get rid of all the black players...

I don't get this one either, but I think that the commissioner has taken a lot of for making changes that clearly need to be made, and it really bugs me. I think people love to about every single decision that he makes, when I feel he has done a really good job overall.
The guy just can't win, he's criticized for the thuggish stigma attached to the players, and then he's criticized when he tries to take measures to clean that image up, not that the sweatband thing is thuggish. I just think that the guy is way too under appreciated and has earned a free pass to try some new things like this rule about sweatbands. I'm sure that it will be changed after they realize that it isn't that big of a deal as far as image goes, but still is it that that big of a deal to call the guy Hitler? Or a communist, a nazi , racist, or any other dirty name they can come up with. I think it is de able to call a guy those types of things for the things he is doing.
I think people that constantly complain about Stern are basically immature and have no idea what it takes to run something as big as the NBA. They don't get that it is a business and not a democracy, and it definitely isn't the players own personal forum for free expression. Ultimately he is only looking out for the players best interest, but apparently some people don't get that.

obviously.
I don't understand, is Stern Hitler or Stalin? (Fascist is the polar opposite of Communist)
HA! Tomorrow we'll see a 50's style game. Really short shorts, no tattoos, almost no emotions when playing or robot style of playing, "Neat" Hairand almost no black players.
Ditto that and beautiful new avitar.
this is by far the dumbest thing i have ever read. i'm not kidding. do you even know what a communist is?
this is why women should be banned from the internets for the most part.
