    How about being a waterboy?

    "
    For an NBA fan, becoming a team waterboy can be very motivating. One of the big advantages of the job is that the fan can enjoy all the action from the courtside, being surrounded by some of the best athletes in the world and personalities who attend the arenas to watch their favorite teams play.

    For those who aren’t into basketball and the NBA, what could make them become a waterboy is the salary. Moreover, the requirements are not as complex as they could be in other jobs, which also makes it quite attractive for many.

    Waterboys in the NBA earn an average of $53,000 to $58,000 annually. It has also been reported that quite a few franchises pay their waterboys up to $100,000 annually."


    $100K for a waterboy position? I'd be interested.

    The injuries are starting to mount up. This is exactly what Joe is waiting for.

    I am wondering if it is too soon in the season. Ideally, the injuries need to be season-ending to teams who were considered contenders. We need more desperation than just 4-6 weeks.

    Is there a waterboy program at the community college? Think I'd like to tell my nephew to look into that.

    Thought I’d retire and do it as a part time gig. Heck you only work 6 or 7 months a year.

    That's hilarious!

    Can't imagine that's how the sculpturer wanted to see their work recognized.

    Might be hard to fit the "boy" part of the job.

    Watergrandpa doesn't sound very appealing to anybody.

    I’m so much better looking than Skip. At least I hope to God I am. But he’s not wrong. It seems to be evolving….somewhat, but it is what it is. Time will tell if players from Syracuse will learn winning team basketball now that Boeheim is gone
