Tell the truth



This was in Josh's post and tells the truth of the problem with the
NBA.  This is what the NBA owners ought to be publishing from the
rooftops.  Let the fans know what they are paying for!

It makes me wonder about the players that they seemed to be so convinced
that they are the just ones here.  I think that these allstar games, if
poorly attended, will send the needed message to the players and to the
agents.  We are not fans of players.  We are fans of teams.  I damn sure
don't root for LB's Pacers to beat the Celtics.  Get a clue guys.  The
egos are so large, these guys are going to implode like the drummers for
Spinal Tap eventually.  They can try and dust the vomit! ;-)  (Hope
everyone gets that one.)  But it might be a fan's instead of the
players.
