Cmon man.

You are saying you would put fans ahead of your teammates and the rest of your organization? I seriously doubt that. If you were anything less than a star, you would get yourself blackballed with that insubordinate attitude.

Yes, because players get plenty of rest already.

The players already got plenty of rest. You act like screwing over the fans is no big deal. The fans are the reason these guys get to do what they do and make what they make. Guys like MJ and Kobe understood that.

Yes, these players are pussies and no, I wouldn't make the exact dame move. I would be more like Kobe and MJ.

Kobe and MJ were not asked to rest. You have no idea how they would have responded.

The NBA is FOR the fans. Without the fans where does the money come from?

It isn't about that.

It is about what is best for the team. Until EVERY team agrees not to rest players, it is an unfair advantage for teams that do.

Nobody refrigerates eggs in the UK.

If I remember correctly from when I was a chef, it's because of what is considered room temperature in Europe vs. the U.S.

Room temperature in Europe is several degrees cooler than in the U.S.

I don't know about MJ, but I know for a fact that Phil tried to get Kobe to rest and Kobe wasn't having it.

It has something to do with washing. They wash the eggs here in the US and takes a small layer off the shell so you need to refrigerate them. The the UK that layer isn't washed so its fine to keep them in room temperature.

Ah, that makes sense. I know the room temperature thing is true as far as being cooler and that it has something to do with why they also don't refrigerate wine, beer, etc.

Assumed it was the same for eggs.
