Greed Stupidity or just plain dumb..

I know the NBA season is over and done and its on to baseball but something has to be said about Lamar Odom if he goes to wherever and leaves the Lakers. He is a perfect fit for the Lakers offense and plays extremely well with his teammates and Phil.   What fool leaves that situation for only a few hundred thousand dollars and a hurt pride?

The owner Jerry B is a bigger jerk than Lamar and he starts all this crap about pulling the offer just because he found out that Lamar had looked at another offer. Two small children playing "I want it my way or I am leaving" and "OK leave and to hell with you." It has been said that the owners of the NBA teams were smarter than most of all the other owners in any of the sports that the public follows.

NBA, NFL, NCAA, MLB - any professional sport played. I put the NCAA in this because the amounts of money that the NCAA gets for college sports is extremely high, so much so that they don't wish for it to be talked about - particularly by the public. Control is an issue here. Especially with Odom and Jerry B who is the one to give in first. That is so much acting like a little kid.

Why would anyone in his straight mind leave a position and or team that he surely loves and go somewhere else that you have no chance in hell of ever getting to a championship game again? On the other side of that is the owner acting like "you don't kiss my ass and do it my way or the way I like it, then to hell with you and leave. So I will take what I offered you away just to show you who's boss."

God, act like adults and get over yourself and stop trying to be in control of everything and everybody. Don't make another huge mistake and let a key member of your team go and leave for so stupid small ass a reason. Act your age and let us get on with another championship run. The only words that remind me of these two is  MORON and IDIOT spelled with capital letters to really let you know how I felt.

Look old dude, its nothing person. I apologize for being a dick, but:

Reading your articles (and comments) without proper (or any kind of) spacing is arduous and makes me continue to skip over what could be good content.

Think about it this when, when you stop to think about writing a new thought, just hit the enter key?

then don't read them. I can edit them but the time it takes to do it makes it harder on my hands. At 92 with carpel tunnel problems it isn't something I worry about. But my greatgranddaughter is going to type anything from now on and I think she is better at editing or writing then I am. But thanks for the thought.

Take it from me - it doesn't take all that much effort to just edit the article.
