Who gives a shit?

NBA players are the most overpaid, egotistical douchebags of any of the major sports. Half of them are outright thugs, half of them can't read, and it's sad how the sport is marketed. The Spurs, the epitome of a "team," just DESTROYED the team with the best player on the planet, and no one gives them a shred of publicity.

I wish people would stop fucking caring about what these assholes do and worry about things that actually matter, like Notre Dame football.
