		<description><![CDATA[I stand with the owners! If the players don&#039;t think they have enough money then own their own business and see what it&#039;s like to run a business or work a job. I wonder what kind of salaries they will  get?  They were made stars by the NBA, and they get paid plenty. Let Lebron share his salary or endorsements with the other greedy players.  Why do NBA players think they are above everybody else. The average person can hardly afford to go to a game anymore. GREEDY PLAYERS.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Let’s see . No NBA basketball on Christmas . Maybe , I’ll spend some time with my kids and as a family we can sit on the dinner table and thank the good Lord for all our blessings . Wait a minute ! Maybe I’ll get down on my knee’s and thank the Lord for the birth of his son Jesus Christ . After all , that’s why we celebrate Christmas right ? No NBA basketball on Christmas ? Maybe the players can spend some time with their families and thank the good Lord they have jobs . Christmas is the best time of the year and it’s not because of NBA basketball
----------

No worries, there&#039;s still football!]]></description>
