    Nobody does. Nobody cares, because they killed the sport... WITH A LOCKOUT.

    Actually, there wouldn't be parity in the NHL except the Red Wings manage to fuck up every year.

    SamAmicoFSO: NBA talks end. Things supposedly getting heated. Becoming clearer owners will have to cancel season to get their way. And they will.

    Hunter says players won't accept the 50-50 split until players know what the system -- lux tax, exceptions -- lools like.

    Holt told union that owners wouldn't talk about the system unless players agreed to 50-50, Hunter said. "Take it or leave it," Hunter said.

    Hunter says he looked at mediator's notes, and they said Holt and Silver described 50-50 as "take it or leave it."
