You can't handle the truth!

Son, we live in a world with teams that need to be funded and supported. Who's gonna do that? You, LeKing? You, DWade? Owners have more responsibility than players can fathom. You weep for players at or below the MLE and you curse the league. You have that luxury. You have the luxury of not understanding what is plain fact. That these negotiations, while tragic and incredibly inept and tactless saves money and provides lives! And the league's and owners existence, while grotesque to you, provides the lives you players live! But deep down, in places you don't talk about at parties and slightly liberal discussion boards, you want our league, you need our league. Owners use words like, team, employee and loyalty. They are the backbone of our existence, but you use them as punchline in your latest "Decision" video. There is niether the time or inclination to explain the plain facts of life to a group of individuals who need the league, but question the way in which it is provided. I think it would be better just to thank the owners, and go merrily on your way. Or pick up an MBA and make a few billion and buy a team. Either way, owners don't give a damn what you players think you are entitled to!

HAHAHA.. Love that.. good one.
