    No doubt. Can you believe the nerve of Chris B Haynes calling Westbrick a superstar?!

    CJ had mentioned a good percentage of players live pay check to pay check so I would expect a good percentage under safe conditions to get back to work. Them house and car payments must be made. Different levels of poverty I guess.

    Hello darkness, my old friend
    I wonder if LeBron James is now in favor of resuming the season with no fans. More than once he's said he'll refuse to play if there are no fans in the stands.

    So long as there are referees, he'll have SOME fans at the games.

    These guys can apply for unemployment like everybody else and deal with their creditors like everybody else....I have family members who live paycheck to paycheck and companies aren't rushing back because they need to work....there's a lesson to learn if they've overextended their finances

    I don't disagree with that at all and with respect to finance,s you are right on, about lessons to be learned.
    If they start up down the road to finish the season I'm hopeful they take precautions.

    I think this shows how Dame's peers feel about him.

    I know there's a thread here, I can FEEL it...... just can't SEE it.
