yeah, I feel that helped, but the NFL pressers aren't looking too hip hop.

likeable superstars emerged
think about the late 90s/00s. tons of legit thug POS candidates acting as the face of the NBA

Everybody freaked out about this, but it turned out pretty well.

Stern ruled it with an iron fist. That included the owners too.
Goodell is the owner's pawn.
I'm guessing the NFLPA is probably stronger than the NBA too

I was thinking the same thing this morning. The NBA has come a long way.

The NBA really got the players involved with the local communities too.

I agree, but I think players are more savvy in marketing themselves. Lebron knows dressing like a hood rat isn't selling too much Gatorade or nike...the NFL isn't really conducive to self promotion on the field.

The superstars of todays NBA are, for the most part, good people/role models

Well, they did. I don't know if there's a simple answer, but Stern somehow pulled it off without everyone calling him a racist. He's a smart man

it is also easier for the NBA to clean itself up because it has a lot less players than the NFL
the NFL has like 5x the amount of players as the NBA
more chances for headcases

Anthony Mason, John Starks, and Charles Oakley retired.

I really think it started to change around 2001 when Brian Scalabrine came into the league.

Doesn't the NFL have the lowest arrest rate of the 3 major sports?
