Even the tempestuous Allen Iver- fl
son showed he had a heart by staying V
in Philadelphia when he could've gotten
more money by going somewhere
else.
But these athletes are exceptions |H
to the rule.
They are a decided minority in a
league whose reputation, while perhaps
temporarily reinstated, has been MAI
forever scarred by crass decadence and
a "me first" approach to living that ig- ^ay a
nores fans and communities, often the j
same communities that served as -n
launching points for their players' ca- g^ort
reers. j Qn,
The only reason I'm thankful the run u
NBA is back is that BJ McKie (beheve dr0V(
me, he's one of the good guys) will have |e rj
a place to play next year. ^or
Beyond that, I could care less. aj|ow
Until NBA players take responsi- waj
bility for their images by acting in accordance
with the fundamental tenets are 3
of decency, humility and self-sacrifice, nFCj
I hope the "new NBA" falls flat on its jogg t
face.
So remember, when you've put down
the books for a study break and tuned
in your iavonie sports networK, ao yourself
a favor.
Don't believe the hype.
