The Daily Show on Jason Collins and the NBALGBT
Great piece from the Daily Show. My favorite jokes were:- "If you follow the world of sports and/or homosexuality"- Jon going nerdy with three gay wizards: Ian McKellen, Dumbledore and Jason Collins- Video cut getting Obama to say: "[Speaking for Jason] I'm still 7 foot tall and can bang with Shaq."- Jon Stewart and Jason Jones longing for the ability to make Linsanity-like puns that ended with GESPY (Gay-ESPY). In general, I found this a good piece in that it is propelled by an intellectual point (of how a non-flashy coming out is still important and impressibe) with a little light humor around it.

“Love how 90% of these people have terrible grammar. Just shows the type of people that are homophobic. I seriously feel like who gives a shit? These losers are just scared of being called gay themselves.”

NBA Lockout 101

Jordan Weiss
06/30/2011
NBA-ology

Law experts have stated that the NBA lockout could be much worse than the NFL lockout. Why? The NBA owners and players are extremely far apart on many issues. For one, 22 of the 30 NBA teams lost money last season, and net losses for the league were $340 Million. The owners are proposing a hard cap that will limit the salaries of players. Currently, there is a flexible salary cap that allows players to get paid more money than they would with a hard cap. Of course, this is one area of major disagreement. Another issue the owners and players cannot agree on is the percentage share players receive of the revenue from ticket sales, concessions and television contracts. Under the current collective bargaining agreement, the players get 57 percent of the revenue while owners receive 43 percent. The owners want the split to be 50-50. The league also wants to finalize a revenue-sharing plan among the teams after a collective bargaining agreement is finalized with the players. But the players association wants the owners to reach a revenue-sharing plan before a collective bargaining agreement with the players is signed.It looks as if the NBA is on a slow path to a prolonged lockout.
