Now everyone looks like hipsters; I understand trying to get away from the Hip-Hop image, which I liked, but what's wrong with the players just dressing like athletes.

He did a lot of good things in terms of expanding the game's popularity, no denying that. But all the corruption under his "rule" is inexusable. Obviously, I'm completely biased cause he let his butt buddy Bennett move the Sonics to OKC as welll.

Adam Silver will be named his replacement.

I wish I could give you +100 for that  :)  But i'm not sold on satan leaving yet.  Selig was supposed to be gone from mlb this year but chose 2 fuck up mlb another couple years.  As long as silver ain't no captain bly dictator like stern is.  Fire all the corrupt refs, refs who hate the clippers, refs who act like they have little man syndrome like them mlb umps, no being a fan of the lakers, bricks & bulls like stern.  No fixing games or even lotteries for the major market teams & hating on the small market teams.  Even though the celtics are a large market stern hates them.  No forcing players to talk to the media or fining them for stupid junk.  Like the time rasheed answered questions but in short answers & not how satan likes it  >:(  No double standards where those on small market teams get fined for stuff they say that's not a finable offense & letting those on major markets say anything disgusting that should be a finable offense.  No fining players for speaking the truth on getting screwed by the refs. 
   But fine & maybe suspend players who would get away with stuff & get lots of help from the refs if they complain about officiating & make hypocritical comments.  Perfect example=90's new york bricks, they got away with murder in the mid 90's.  But when refs finally called fouls on them, brick players nearly all the time cried to the refs  :'(  They got to those 2 finals in the 90's cause the league & the refs wanted them in there, funny thing is that they still didn't win a title  :D ;D

Hack Wilson - real:
you know how I know Stern must be an asshole?


he never even bothered to apologize to Jim Rome after making a complete ass outta himself on Rome's show when Rome asked a softball question


he acted like he was talking to the same Rome that got into that Chris Everett incident which was like 20 years ago for fucks sake.  pathetic to see someone in Stern's place in sports to act like an ass over a Q like that.



and the fact Stern has had 2 work stoppages post MJ did not help the league one bit.  and do we really believe Donnehy was the ONLY corrupt ref?  i don't think so...


sadly Bud Selig is the best commissioner in sports....the ones that matter.

DJ SUGAFREE QUIK:
All commissioners suck actually.  But i'll admit at least Selig never had another work stoppage since the 94 strike like the dumbass NHL commissioner[3]  And Stern who wants people to think he's a hardass but really isn't.  Its reported that he actually suspended Jordan for a year in a half because of his gambling problem.  Convinced Jordan to lie to the public about his retirement cause Jordan nation would most likely do death threats & maybe carry out those threats if he admitted the suspension.  Some things in life you gotta put 2 & 2 together.  Might explain why stern keeps gravy training jordan.  Makes sure he don't lose in the finals, forced him onto a nba front office job even though jordan sucks at that. 

Why I think that, it had to do with the 30 for 30 preview with Reggie Miller.  He said that the pacers & bricks did everything possible to win the championship in the 93-94 season.  Cause he & they knew Jordan was gonna comeback.  How did he know?  There's a few players who retired early but never came back.  I told my brother about this & he mentioned that jordan was privately suspended.  This actually screwed me up on jordan cause I felt deserted when he retired in 93.  I preferred that he played 1 more year then retire in 94.  To make sure that the bricks didn't end up in the finals.  But in 95 he comes crawling back.  Retires in 98 then another comeback years later.  Brett Favre like.  I believe that when a player does retire it should be for good.
