Yes, it's a business. And as businessmen, the players decided that giving back $3B (which well covers the owners supposed "losses") AND having...
Last comment on it since this is an update thread. I'm saying no business should be guaranteed a profit simply because they are in business. There...
Two questions. - Can the players defend their position in any way to the media without you considering it whining? - Do you consider Sterns...
Didn't even consider that. Good catch.
I keep mentioning this, but you really can't compare the two. No one cares about hockey. Folks care about basketball, including a decent portion...

Proper time management gives us the ball back with time to score, similar to those other teams. That was Kim's point. Geez, and you accuse folks...
Wow...debate over. Does this count as evidence Ric? Edit: Nevermind. I see you have already dismissed it. At the least, I think it's fair to...
Ric, you really can't provide evidence for a character trait. All you can do is list examples of when you see that trait on display. If I say...
