Or is it only one or the other? Help me understand this.

I’m not sure that I even remember when it became a “who’s children are allow to be sad that daddy is leaving” competition.

What the hell is wrong with you anyway?

As the article said, I don’t think Billups wants anyone to feel sorry for him. He knows has a good life that the majority of us could only dream of. He was just relating the human side of it. No one bashed the military.

The Knicks came up, by adding a guy who has won a ring and can lead a team.

What about our people in the military who might not come back, or can’t afford IPAD’s to skype with their loved one’s, or can’t fly home during a break, or fly their family in, and whom you are getting paid more in one game than they do for a year? Nope, don’t feel sorry at any of them.

He’s a true pro. Was a helluva player for a long time. Came up big in a lot of clutch situations over the years. It’s sad to see a guy get traded, when he’s actually the one that wants to stay & you know the team would rather have kept him.

Good luck in New York, Smooth.
