NBA Lockout discussion. *Update 11/14* Union to Decertify

but at the end of the day this dispute meant nothing to most sports fans.

Nothing to most sports fans? Define "nothing" and "most" please ... If the entire season was missed there would be a great deal of sports fans upset about it. Don't be so quick to assume that because you maybe don't care that much about the NBA that everyone else feels the same way.

[FirstTimer]

I don't care for the NBA but dave you just sound like an idiot.

Agreed.

However if there is one major sport that could drop off the face of the earth tomorrow and I wouldn't miss it..it would be the NBA.

[Point Blank]

The NBA and its players knew they had to compromise. No one gave a f--k. If the NBA season had been cancelled, other than the real workers (arena employees, bars and restaurants near the arena, etc...), no one would have give a crap.

I'm happy for the real workers and side businesses who need the NBA, but at the end of the day this dispute meant nothing to most sports fans.

Rashard Lewis is still gonna make $20M or so a year. So is Gilbert Arenas.

Speak for yourself..

Haha I wonder who would watch round 3 of the NBA Draft if they did have it

No lockout means anything significant to sports fans.

Nice to see "Passive-aggressive racist" Dave has returned.

I don't know if it's so much that or it if it's just Canadian xenophobia. They don't get much exposure to coloreds up there.
