I love the NBA, but an NBA finals game will do worse numbers then a prime time NFL football game. | |

Exactly...The Lakers, Cowboys, Yankees, and Red Wings are the glamour teams
of their respective sports. Throw them in a finals series and the numbers will be up. Thanks for the laughs, arguments and overall enjoyment for the last umpteen years. It's time for me to retire from Prince.org and engage in the real world...lol. Above all, I appreciated the talent Prince. You were one of a kind. | |
