		<description><![CDATA[Extremely well said, Ewok. Very impressive. No one really talks about that, but that is why I think the NBA won&#039;t be too impacted, like baseball hasn&#039;t been too impacted by the steroids controversy, because sports is too interwoven into American culture. Widespread abandoning of these sports would cripple the nation, and there is so much money involved, the powers that be won&#039;t let that happen.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Marcus,

Of course there is a a major problem with regards to gambling and unfortunately, there will always be a problem because it involves big time money. It may not happen now but it will happen for sure. In my opinion, that is just Human Nature. I mean, Just how Business Ethics and these Billion Dollar industries, not to mention the power that goes along with it, could possibly reconcile? Yes it can work together to an extent, but When nobody is watching and there is an opportunity to strike gold or oil....

The Thing that we can do however, is to simply catch them with more aggressiveness and vigilance. Set them as examples not just here but to the World as the World is Watching... These referees should be given background clearances and investigation.

Major Sports is a vital component in the development of this country and if we lose these institutions due to lack of integrity and credibility, We will have big problems ranging  from, Industrial collapse of Sports, Unemployment,  Sporting Busines Downfall, to a people with a sagging morale, especially for the working man.

My second point is this, Before we judge Bonds, Vick and the rest, Let&#039;s remember this thing with Donaghy is much bigger. It can affect Basketball Worldwide... If Donaghy deserves his day in court, then Bonds and Vick should also be given their day in court before they&#039;re officially judged by publicity or facts.


David Stern handled this case poorly and it is so Unfair to the paying fans... especially to the young aspring dreamers of the sport. That&#039;s just my opinion. Thank you.]]></description>
