Well, you and I are going to have to (partially) agree to disagree...
I am not tpark, but are seriuosly telling me gang bangers serve a useful place in todays society?
this is off subject, but speaking of race, i was wondering if what made the monday night football skit turn into such a firestorm stemmed from the fact it was interracial. if it was vinnie in the skit, would there have been as much controversy? i wonder.
Yes. There was a naked woman in a program viewed by old people. It wouldn't have mattered if it was Terrell Owens, Troy Aikman or Johnny Unitas.
Is there an e-mail address for this "Race Card" author? I want to give him a piece of my mind (and I am not racist). In fact, I am married to a beautiful women from Panama who happens to be 1/3 black and believe me she would be totally pissed off by him "playing this card". Her comment after seeing this brawl was "you would not see David Robinson or Tim Duncan behaving like that".

If we are gonna play the race card:
Latrell (black) chokes PJ Carlisimo (white)
Pacers (black) take on white detroit fans
Kermit (black) clocks RudyT (white)
Vernon Maxwell hits white fan
Charles Barkley spits on white girl
Dennis Rodman kicks white photographer in the sack.
NVE shoves a white ref
Rodman head butts a white ref
kobe rapes a white girl
I thought this guy was black.
NBA players make to much money. They priced me out from seasons to half a season to a 10 game pack to a 5 game lottery team pack.
Now I am forced to see lottery teams play the Spurs. Next year, I will be at home watching them.
Nice hummer, nice crib, nice bling bling..... Whatever....
Nice watching them for free on TV.

in your opinion.NBA players make to much money
you nor anyone else should say to a person "you make too much money"
that is none of your business, nor is it right for you to say a person makes too much money.
That is there business
Huh? I can say whatever I want. NBA players make to much money.
Your rides take to many tickets.
You take up to much space on this forum.
And you take up to much space in your seat.
intelligent.
took you what, 2 seconds sitting on the toilet to think that up??
But, your loved here more, so I bow before you.
Dude, go take some prozac or something.... Simma down now! Go jump off a bridge.
They DO make too much money, as do actors. It kills me how highly uneducated people out there make millions (and lets face it, some of these people are not educated and can barely speak English properly) just because they have some 'sport' talent.
Yet, you have teachers who are lucky if they make more than $40k a year on a good day.
I'm not saying they shouldn't be paid wll, but there is no reason people should be making 9 million or more a year just because they can put a ball through a hoop.
if you think you bother me that much, you are drinkin early.

Thats life, it sucks, if everything were fair, GOOD TEACHERS would make the millions, and the BBall players would make 40 grand.
The Market dictates otherwise, and to say just because a guy cant speak well, or because he isnt a rhodes scholar doesnt deserve a certain amount of money, is a little ascanine.
No, it's not asinine. I would think you would value an education over sports. Guess not.
I've heard you call a lot of players 'thugs'. Do they derserve the money they make because they play a sport?
Nice take Tpark. However, NBA and MLB salaries are out of control. One day the balance will be tipped to the wrong side. Some teams will not be able to make it and some will, that's life. One day, the consumer is not going to be able to pay the big jack. 3% is the inflation rate, however, the NBA and MLB are probably 15+% yearly.
One day it will catch up and the balance will fall.
For better or for worse, nobody spends thousands of dollars to watch teachers teach 40 times a year.
that I agree with Sequ, but I think checks and balances like new collective bargaining agreements solve things like that.
S y, yes some are thugs, and I dont think they should get that money, but, its not my money, if they are good players then they have technically earned it.
Once again, dont think I wouldnt rather have the real people get the real money.
Soldiers, teachers, policeman, and such.
Garnett is making 28 mill? correct? Who is going to be the owner or manager to tell that mofo that he is capped out and will never get a raise? It will happen one day.
We make alot of money but we spend alot of money.
Yes, I know that. But the whole discussion was about athletes being overpaid. Look how a lot of people ed at JAX holding out for more money
So what were NBA salaries back in the 60s and 70s? Were the salaries comparable to what they are now in today's world?
