Lockout

Hearing about NBA players going on tour while their season is currently on lockout isn’t news to me, it’s just really disappointing. The latest news provided to me was through Matt Lundy’s blog titled Google Plus: Unlikely Winners in the NBA lockout. Google announced that Lebron James, Dwayne Wade, Carmelo Anthony and Chris Paul will be going on a 4 game tour with Google to promote Google +. These players shouldn’t be going on tour, they should be in a board room with the NBA owners trying to get a deal together and save the 2011/2012 NBA season. By not trying to get a deal done, they are affecting the lower salary NBA players that aren’t receiving pay checks because there is no collective bargaining agreement as well as stadium workers as there are no games being played and therefor no work for them to do. I am as much to blame as anyone else for these tour’s going on because I still wear the products which is contributing to this madness.
