I'm watching the NBA conference finals. The match ups are quite good and I see from watching the commercials that the "NBA Cares" and I'm sure they do -- as if the rest of us schmucks don't! Next the NBA is going to come out against cancer -- but I digress. I can't help wondering though if maybe the NBA should care more about their on-court image? Is this really the face of the League that NBA is after?
There is something that says self-loathing to me when a guy treats his body like a doodle pad.
What does it say about a league that is full of doodle pads? Maybe the league should hold classes to incoming rookies attempting to elevate their self-esteem and warning them on the dangers of looking like this.
However, I would like to give a shout out to Dwight Howard for not giving in this lemming like behavior to spiro-graph his body.
So, you were sitting next to me when I read your post so you know I laughed - but I want you to keep posting! Think of it as writing practice. Love ya!
ReplyDeleteTom, I can't agree more on the body graffiti. Sort of like "Newspaper Rock" in Canyonland National Park. It's so distressing that this movement has moved to women's basketball and also high school.
