Except for pushing the age limit.

They should raise it again. It will only improve the NBA product, and it will improve the NCAA product at the same time. It will also save veteran jobs in the league, which the union should support. Why would any current player be against this?

Don't protect owners and GMs from their own idiocy. Let it create a market inequality.

Any chance to make Stern look bad is alright in my book. He hung around 10 years too long.

Reporter: The former Commissioner is retired and werent you his right hand man for the last ten years?



Was that question ever asked?

No, Im saying that could/would be the response

The only way to make this right is to sell to a black majority owner.

That would bother me UNLESS they had the highest bid. I don't like the idea of taking something from someone because of words.

Jordan is already a black owner and he couldnt be more of a misogynist. Not to mention that he got suspended as a player for gambling. No issues there though.

Are we trying to equate racism and misogyny? If being a misogynist disqualifies someone from employment or being an owner of a business just about every CSFMB member would be unemployable.

How are you guys defining misogyny? IMHO, it's a hatred or denigration of women and I don't think being a womanizer makes someone a misogynist. Depending on the nature of those multiple relationships it might make you kind of a jackass, but I don't think it means someone hates women and there's also a pretty good chance they are less than forthright in other relationships as well, not just those with women.

Some people believe you must hate women if you sleep around.

Is their contention that by doing that you're showing complete disregard for them as people and treating them solely as penis receptacles? I suppose that's probably true in some cases, but I suspect that for most guys it's much more superficial than that.

Does that mean that women who sleep around are misandristic?

Magic's ownership group is pretty white other than him.

I'll have to look up some of the quotes about Magic's parties and see if it is just a case of sleeping around.

There was a story a few years back that the Lakers players would grab a hot tub-blow job combo before speaking to the press

I don't give a shit what anyone does in their bedroom, who fucks who, or any of that. But the percentages of a man getting HIV from traditional sex with a woman are extremely low. I don't think Magic is gay, but I do believe he was doping, drinking, and partying like a fucking rock star and he was probably in bed with ten chicks and two other dudes and one thing led to another. I'm not judging the man like his "friend" Isiah and the other homophobes in the NBA.

Yeah, but it's easier when your sport is the most popular.
