$25,000 for comments on refs. Rivers and McMillan were fined too.

David Stern is one of the most shameless evil guys on this planet. He should be eradicated.

To that last part, all I can say is "duh." NBA's kindof a business, and the guys that get put in charge of businesses tend to care about money.

Other'n that, why would anyone be that dumb?
- Public defamation of your employer
- You likely have no hard evidence with which to back up either claim
- Would anyone be surprised if he had mob/mafia/other ties? Can't speak for whomever, but I like my kneecaps and other organs and supporting structures in their current configuration.
- Even if he doesn't, he's a lawyer. Under most circumstances, you don't publicly mess with them.
- etc, etc
- JVG was fined what, $150k for that? I like money too. He also never would have gotten a job with ESPN/TNT had he not complied, nor possibly even anywhere else, without Stern's intervention. (being fired for insubordination on national TV will do that)
