Why I hate the NBA... other than because basketball sucks

Ok, So on monday the NBA sent out a memo to all teams stating there is now a dress code in effect. Players will be required to wear business-casual attire when involved in team or league business. This, to me, seems logical. It IS a business after all. Now, Indiana guard Stephen Jackson believes the NBA's new ban on bling-bling is racially motivated. Sure, I can buy this... after all, black people LOVE their bling. But come on man! If you worked for, say... JP Morgan, or some other fancy-pants company, you wouldn't be able to bling it out. So why should you be able to in the NBA? Philadelphia's Allen Iverson also was critical of the new rule."I feel like if they want us to dress a certain way, they should pay for our clothes," he said. Excuse the shit out of me, but aren't you WELL PAID? I checked. Iverson's salary last year was $14,625,000. He is in the 3rd year of a 6 year contract for just over $90million. BUY YOUR OWN DAMN SUIT!! what the fuck man!What, the hoes are just too much? That damn coke habit taking up all your spare change? ASSHOLE! I personally love this quote by Jason Richardson: "They want to sway away from the hip-hop generation. You think of hip-hop right now and think of things that happen like gangs having shootouts in front of radio stations. You still wear a suit, you still could be a crook," Richardson said. "You see all what happened with Enron and Martha Stewart. Just because you dress a certain way doesn't mean you're that way" Dude, shit. Are you comparing the people who killed Jam Master Jay with Martha friggin' Stewart?!?!

HAHAHA... just picture next season's "Martha Stewart: The Apprentice"... "I'm sorry, you just don't fit in. Now feel the cold steel of my 9, bitch! BLAM BLAM BLAM!"
