This is just too much amigo.  How many of us would not take some physical
punishment dor lets just say a measily 1 million $ over 1 year?  And just
where are all these bloody ex basketball player cripples?  I noticed that
none of the top 50 players of all time at the Break where in wheelchairs.

When it all comes fown to it, these guys are getting a huge amount of money
to play a game that I (and many others of us out there) play for fun and
actually spend a small amount of money for the privlidge.
