Changing the Game?

[Dan Forant Sr <dforant1@nycap.rr.com>]

Why are they tinkering w/the game. Make the lanes wider, less clutching
etc., baloney, leave the game alone. Are points scored down, sure, the
players suck. Too much expansion. Not enough talent. And defenses are
getting better. It's much easier to defend than to score. The Knicks were
successful at that for years. 

Tinker w/the refs. Stop the touch calls, and call the obvious ones. Let the
game flow more. Basketball is starting to lose money like Baseball, nearly
half of the teams are losing dough. So they want to soup it up. Management
has a problem, more people are playing sports than watching it. People are
not infatuated w/sports anymore. Look at the playgrounds, their empty.
