Here is the thing that bugs me: When I met Joe I found him to be personable, likable, funny and a very pleasant man to talk to. Q is a hysterically funny man, great personality, great stories and was fun to talk to. Personally, I like both men but I don't approve of the things they have done.
Am I sarcastic and cynical when it comes to the league? Yes, I am and I admit that. Outside of being a journalist, I am a fan of the game. I LOVE going to games, seeing Bump the Moose; the "Free Kerry Lyons" fan club; the outrageous promotions and the fact that these are guys playing for next to nothing because they want to hang onto their dreams.
There is nothing more I like that watching a perfectly executed fast break, great defense, and the fact that every time I go to an arena, I will see something I have never seen before. The funny thing is, I get paid for this and love every nanosecond of it.
I want minor league basketball to succeed. I want to see solid teams, I want to see the fans be able to attach themselves to a team and I want to see kids have role models in ABA players.
I want the league to succeed and some of my comments come from the fact the ABA just isn't cutting it right now.
