[QUOTE="kevans74, post: 743463, member: 12344"] The other thing is the avenue at which sports provides...what you see on TV with star/famous athletes, what they stand for and embody NFL wise: Brett Favre, John Elway, Aikman, Smith, Jerry Rice, Kurt Warner, etc were all good guys (for the most part) who seemed to enjoy the game and stood for something MLB wise: Jeter, Johnny Damon, Paul O neil, Randy Johnson, Schilling, Clemens, etc pretty much the same The NBA has definitely changed and I feel that people don't even care, UNLESS it's playoff basketball or college March Madness... I don't think anyone wants to see the Warriors, whatever team Lebron is on, Rockets, Spurs, Celtics...and that's about it play LOL I feel like kids/people today just play for the money rather than the game/love and are now taught to be machine like and can lead to injury That's partially why many players don't last that long nowadays Maybe they just don't really care?

That's what happened to AR the other day But with the advancements in medicine today I don't believe it has anything to do with not being able to heal guys I feel like pro atheletes just don't care that much and either they aren't as "tough" as players back in the day, unless of course they BREAK a bone(which they should sit out obviously) OR they just see it as a job and play like robots which makes them more susceptible to injury [/QUOTE]
