    I honestly don't get the appeal of strippers/strip clubs. (I mean, do people who go to them think waitresses who smile at them really love them, too?)
    I sure would when I was a virgin teen, but some of us progress, and some of us are just stuck in place I guess.

    Weird seeing him in a Clippers uni. Still the best 4th or 5th option in the league.

    I think most of them are out of business now but they were pretty popular 30 years ago.

    And yet some fans want their teams to gut themselves to acquire him.

    I'm with you completely but if you were a superstar NBA player those places might be less of a tease and more of a preview.

    They should just forfeit the games if players aren't available. Harden was at a fucking strip club partying the other night, no way the League and the Thunder should accommodate that.

    What?!? That makes no sense and no owner would go for that. If the team isn't enforcing the COVID guidelines then they should get fined and have other penalties but plenty of players will test positive that do follow the guidelines, that's why those guidelines are called mitigating not stopping. Then there is the fact that those forfeited games can no longer be broadcast and therefore the league will not meet the contractual requirements with local and national TV deals, which is always their biggest source of income but now is like 90% of revenue. So again, I think that's a bad idea.

    We're just going to have a continuing of irresponsible behavior if they are just going to postpone games to play later on. The Rockets broke protocol on several levels. If you are going to be lax with enforcement, then they may as well just cancel the season now.
