Well, if you only care about sports, then at least you should get worked up about SOMETHING. So if you're big on global issues, should you stop what you're doing? No. But if all you know is Mets, Jets and Nets, then sure. Why not? And if you think Thomas is getting a raw deal, then stand up for that.
Who Cares anymore it's the NBA. The game these days is a joke. I'm 6'7" and have been over six feet since I was 11, so I've played the game my whole life. There is no sportsmanship anymore. No cohesion on the court, apart from a few players who seem to care. The game is not fun to watch, or root for. That is why the WNBA is more fun to watch. They actually still use the fundamentals.
Indiana, Toronto, now NYC - one of the greatest players ever to play the game and terrible GM/coach. His record speaks for itself. He is the architect of the team, his decisions.
This is not Vancouver, who would not want to play for the Knicks? Why we don’t have a highly competitive team is beyond me.
