Latrell "Cock Lovin" Spreewell said:
"I've got my family to feed." Sprewell, who will make $14.6 million this season in the final year of his deal, drew criticism from Stern for the remark.



'twas a similar quote, now some 10 years ago, that officially removed me from the NBA fandom. patrick ewing, during the last strike, passed comment on how he needed more money because, to paraphrase, "my kids need shoes."

lovely.

14.6 million a year, or 5 million a year (whatever ewing was pulling home 10 years ago), is the combined yearly take-home of every fan in ear shot of that statement. fans who, might i add, would be rotting in jail were they to attempt to murder their boss
