I do what I can in my sphere of influence but that is question you should not ask me but ask yourself. Ranting on this message board isn't helping anything.edit: saying your ranting was too harsh but you do come across as a bit stressed.
Yeah, I probably was ranting. Feeling very frustrated about the whole thing - seeing the CBA deal being purposely derailed by the owners additional demands at the last minute. Politics in the U.S. being a mess. And most people writing/saying that things are wrong but then just moving on and not taking any action. That's why I respect the OWS people. At least they are actively doing something to make a change. So I tried to rallye up the troops here but that gave me the title of Bizarro.
This is not about creating job...those jobs will still be there and those rooks waiting in the wings will be duly employed so your argument for him to get involved in flawed.
The article was making the lockout about jobs and decreased economies in the NBA cities. That's the theme of the thread.
If this lockout doesn't get resolved then yes, there will probably be jobs next year for the rookies and everyone. But we are trying to have an agreement and season this year. Someone with power really needs to step in. Maybe it will just be the players smarter lawyer, David Boies, who might put a scare in the owners???
The difference between fiction and reality? Fiction has to make sense.
