I've always liked the look of Sambas, and was wondering why I never got a pair... just searched for them online and found out they only go up to size 14... dammit
Salary problems would be solved if they made a hard salary cap that didn't allow teams to go over at all- no tax penalty- they would simply be unable to spend more than X dollars. That X dollars should be based on a set % (e.g. 70%) of the net income the league made in previous years (divided by 30 teams)... That would make it a level playing field (at least financially) regardless of market size and would greatly simplify player salaries since it would just be supply and demand within a known cap. Of course the Player's Union would never go for this as it would likely result in lower contracts for superstars than what we have today, since teams would no longer be able to intentionally overspend the cap for top players.
While we're fixing problems with the NBA, I also think the "problem" of teams resting stars would be solved if the regular season was shortened to 58 games... I'd abolish conferences and make everyone play everyone else twice (one at home, and one away). 58 games would be 70% of the current schedule, which would greatly reduce the wear and tear players experience from a long season. That would greatly increase the value to the viewer for every game because teams would no longer have an excuse to rest players that aren't injured, and each regular season game would be that much more important for playoff seeding. Speaking of playoffs, since there would be no more conferences, the top 16 teams by W-L record would make the playoffs, period... no more 2014 Suns not making the playoffs (despite having a winning record) since they aren't in a soft conference. And since everyone played everyone twice, regular season strength of schedule would basically be equal for everyone, so seeding would be fair...

@Colombia I'm very sorry to hear that.Just said a prayer for you all.
Well he landed himself in the hospital with acute liver problems several weeks ago. He had severe jaundice and basically looked like this from head to toe. Difference is my dad is 55 years old so you can probably imagine how much alcohol he drank to look like that at such an early age. The hospital doctors had repeatedly warned him that he was lucky he didn't die and that he'd kill himself if he ever drank alcohol again.
Google example of severe jaundice:
The hospital committed him to temporary stay in a retirement home around around 1 and a half weeks ago where he was supposed to stay until the 28th to do some additional recovering. His condition was getting better and he barely had any jaundice left when I visited him last wednesday.
It appears that he got his hands on alcohol somewhere in the past 1-3 days. He couldn't have gotten it by himself so I'm guessing he got it via another inhabitant or perhaps one of his drinking buddies visited him and brought something.
He was sent back to the hospital yesterday night looking completely yellow again, with a broken hip from falling, and displaying severe symptoms of alcohol withdrawal. He had been taking his medication properly and they fully prevented any withdrawal effects so to have those symptoms he must have drank alcohol.
He went into a coma in the ambulance.
His liver is completely destroyed now and all his organs are failing. His blood has become toxic because the liver can't process toxins anymore so they just stay in his blood and build up.
My aunt and I both signed a DNR (do not reanimate) and he is expected to die tonight or in the next few day or 2.
It is what it is.
My aunt and I exhausted every effort to try to make him admit to his alcoholism and to stop his selfdestructive behavior. He never did admit his alcoholism and evidently he didn't intend to stop drinking despite our efforts and the doctors repeatedly telling him he would die if he started drinking again.
Personally I'm fairly indifferent about it, as cold as that may sound. Truth is he has always been an awful dad, treated my mother horribly and never seemed to care much about me. I also found out from my aunt today that my granddad (passed away several years ago) had a secret savings account for me that he intended to give me when I was 20 but during his passing my dad withdrew all the money in it for himself.
I was already expecting him to drink himself to death when he would be released to go home on the 28th so the only real surprise was that he did it so soon while still in treatment.
He's in a coma so he won't have a painful death or anything. Clearly the alcohol was more important to him than his family so I'm not going to waste much energy on his passing.
I've said my goodbyes in the Intensive Care a few hours ago. Now it's just a matter of time before his body shuts down entirely and he passes away in his coma.

life is haunting brotha... I wish YOU health and wellness.
