Heat Strip Players From Website 

Post#1 » by mikey1365 » Sat Jul 2, 2011 3:30 am

Why did they do that ? Did they have to do that ? The NFL teams did not do that. Thats weird. This whole lockout thing really stinks. It really seems like the owners are set on really getting there's Its a hard call. I get what the owners are saying. Not saying i'm siding with these guys. Just I get it. The whole country has suffered through this economic disaster. Why shouldn't the players have to take there hit.

I think the league in general is kind of screwed up. You look at the NFL with there profit sharing, and how it enables all teams to be competetive. Perfect example this year's Super Bowl my beloved Steelers and the Green Bay Packers two of the very smallest markets in the league.

I really think alot of the leagues problems are in that, that being revenue sharing. What the Lakers, Bulls, Knicks Gross is rediculously more than the other teams. Sure there are very poorly run teams in this league alot of them, actually. So why should the well run teams have to pay the way of guys making bad decisions. Ok I get that. I guess you have to think of it as being pro sports version of welfare.

Another big problem I think is Guaranteed contracts. That needs to do away, where else in the world can you not put the effort out and still make the same as if you were

Orlando Magic, small market team but yet they have one of the leagues highest payrolls. If they are grossing 70% of what the Lakers are, how in the heck are you not gonna lose money.

I also trhink a hard cap is the way to go. Simply because the owners cant trust themselves to not over spend on players, which brings me to another problem with the owners no one has a gun to there heads to pay the Eddy Curry's of the world 11m a year.

To me, if the owners and league officials want the NBA to be successful, than they need to treat it as the business that it is, with 30 franchise stores scattered through out North America. If the the San Antonio Spurs are doing it the right way then they need to help the Charlotte Bobcats with how they do business because its gonna affect there bottom line as well.

Hey have the President contact me here on Tuesday and then I will fix his problems as well. Just teasing. Had to talk about all this CBA crap, I have been reading to much about it, and my wife wont talk to me about it, she just figures she endured through another Football and Basketball season now shut up, its my time. Women, its always about them. So, I figured I would run my thoughts here
