I believe the time has come to form a professional basketball league. There’s enough fan interest, enough money and possibly enough talent to form a twelve-team league. While I realize this is a rather strange idea I think it has merit. Follow me.

People all over the world love basketball. There’s great interest in Europe and South America. Why can’t we have a professional league hear in the U.S.? It’s a crime that America does not have professional basketball to enjoy. I for one think the time has come to change this travesty.

Whatever the NBA is, its not basketball. When the leagues most “dominate” player can drop his shoulder, initiate contact, and blow his defender into the third row and not be called for a foul, that’s not basketball. When a hand full of players are allowed enough steps to qualify for a five-mile merit badge, and not be called for traveling that’s not basketball. When your hand is on the bottom of the ball your carrying it.

I’m ready for pro basketball! Who’s with me?
