]]> Comment on Go Ahead, I Dare You by Travis Outlaw http://pauliesplatform.wordpress.com/2008/08/10/go-ahead-i-dare-you/#comment-115 Travis Outlaw Mon, 11 Aug 2008 03:08:12 +0000 http://pauliesplatform.wordpress.com/?p=83#comment-115 I think Kobe Bryant, LeBron James and Dwayne Wade were just saying that stuff and I don't think they are actually going to do it. But if even one of them leaves. I think this will hurt the NBA greatly. Afterall Kobe, Lebron, Wade are the faces of the NBA. Look at what Josh Childress has done only an average NBA player. Childress has started a trend and many other NBA players have followed him. If Kobe, Lebron, Wade leave the NBA will be ruined. Who wants to watch the NBA when the best players aren't playing and are playing in Europe. It will probably force the NBA to expand globally and combine with the euroleague and other leagues around the world. Which is actually not a bad thing at all. Except probably the plane flights will probably take longer. And the time difference will be a problem for viewers watching. We’ll get to see how much your “brands” grow when you are all playing outside the United States and in the obscurity of Europe. It drives me nuts when millionaire athletes make comments like these three just did. -I don't think it will hurt players like Kobe Bryant, LeBron James and Dwayne Wade at all. If they go to Europe. The Euro is worth more than the dollar so they actually will make more. Financially they will still be making millions off commericals and name brands. And look at how Kobe was treated in China. Everybody coming to take a picture of him and touching him on the back. If Kobe Bryant, LeBron James and Dwayne Wade ever went to Europe or another country to play they will be treated like gods. It doesn't hurt them at all. I think Kobe Bryant, LeBron James and Dwayne Wade were just saying that stuff and I don’t think they are actually going to do it. But if even one of them leaves.

The best broadcast team at CBS was Pat Summerall ... with Tom Brookshier and Irv Cross, well before America's #1 Network brought John Madden into the both as its No. 1 unit for all high profile NFC games. In my mind, this is when Pat was actually operating at his very best. Good memories all around!
