SVG is utterly transparent on this. An old man who wants a coaching job has to say shite like this to be in touch with young players.

Me - "What good reason is there to watch the NBA?"


My thoughts exactly. I haven't watched the NBA in years, prefer the college game since they actually call things like traveling and 3 seconds in the lane.

You are such a sad little twat.

I'm so glad that we're keeping such an important tradition alive though.

So important that people didn't even realize the mavs weren't playing it until a quarter of the season was played.

I agree with him and I’ve said it for years. Has nothing to do with patriotism.

If they play it, you should respect it. But there’s really no reason to play it.

The NBA is a private business.

“I like the college game because of the officiating “ is a hell of a take.

I mean I legitimately tear up when I hear Tiger Band strike those chords and 100k people scream the national anthem. That's one of my favorite parts of college football. I love that they play it before every game.

I just went to my favorite deli to grab a sandwich. The line was about 10-15 deep, so I figured we should all sing the national anthem together as a show of unity prior to eating lunch. Everyone in the line, revealing themselves to be communists, looked at me funny!

i dressed up as a cheerleader and started cheering everyone on while eating their food in the deli. They called me all sorts of mean names and threw their chips at me.

So, to hell with all of those teenage girls and endless varieties of talented people who get the opportunity of a lifetime to perform at a professional sporting event.

I think you’re a little late to that argument, Chad. Plenty of people have questioned the need for cheerleaders for a while now.
