I think it's fair to say that the NBA was the first sport that was widely viewed as a black sport. And whatever the numbers ultimately are for the other sports, the NBA will always be treated a certain way because of that. Our players are so visible that if they have Afros or cornrows or tattoos- white or black-our consumers pick it up.

  • College Athletes Deserve to Be Paid Originally Published: July 18, 2011 by Michael Wilbon | ESPN.Com
    College athletes deserve to be paid Originally Published: July 18, 2011 By Michael Wilbon | ESPN.com I used to argue vehemently against paying college athletes. Tuition, room, board and books were compensation enough. And even if, increasingly, it wasn't enough and virtually every kid who accepted a scholarship was in the red before Christmas of his freshman year, the notion of pay-for- play was at best a logistical nightmare. Where exactly would the money come from? How could you pay college football players but not baseball players or members of the women's field hockey team? And how in the world would you pay men in a way that wouldn't violate Title IX? [+] Enlarge Ronald Martinez/Getty ImagesThe UConn basketball team's run to the NCAA championship generated millions for the NCAA and the university. So you know what caused me to do a 180 on the issue? That $11 billion deal -- OK, it's $10.8 billion to be exact -- between the NCAA and CBS/Turner Sports for March Madness between 2011 and 2024. We're talking $11 billion for three weekends of television per year. On top of that, there's a new four- year deal with ESPN that pays the BCS $500 million. So, if those two deals were worth, say, a combined $10 billion instead of $11.3 billion, would the games not be televised? Would the quality of the broadcasts or the coverage or the staging of the events be somehow diminished? What if people in the business of money took $1.3 billion off the top, invested it, sheltered it and made it available to provide a stipend to college athletes, how could anybody stand on principal and argue against paying the people who make the events possible in the first place? Let me declare up front I wouldn't be the slightest bit interested in distributing the funds equitably or even paying every college athlete.

  • NBA's REVIVAL IS PURE MAGIC by Michael Wilbon
    NEWSLETTER #23 - 2005-06 NBA'S REVIVAL IS PURE MAGIC By Michael Wilbon Don't get me wrong, the NBA has had great teams since Michael Jordan retired from the Chicago Bulls after the 1997-98 season. The San Antonio Spurs teams, particularly the ones with Tim Duncan and David Robinson, could hold their own in any era. The Lakers of Phil Jackson, Shaquille O'Neal and Kobe Bryant were, at times, dominating and entertaining. And although great team play usually is enough to maximize interest in pro football and Major League Baseball, that simply isn't the case with professional basketball. The NBA has been, is now, and probably always will be a league driven by and dependent on its star power. It's been that way from Mikan and Cousy to Russell and Chamberlain to Oscar and West to Kareem and Julius to Bird and Magic to Sir Charles and M.J. to Shaq and Kobe. The greatest team in NBA history -- the 1992 Dream Team -- never even played a single league contest or a game of consequence on U.S. soil but was the most star-studded team ever put together anywhere. So there's a very easy answer to the questions of why these NBA playoffs have been so compelling, why TV ratings have been up and why there's a buzz about the NBA Finals in a way there hasn't been since Jordan's second retirement. After seven seasons of trying to convince fans that certain players were stars, the league has enjoyed a postseason where its most recognizable players led teams into the playoffs, then played the way stars historically have in the NBA.

WHY SO STERN?: THE GROWING POWER OF THE NBA COMMISSIONER Michael R. Wilson* I. INTRODUCTION Former National Basketball Association ("NBA") player Dennis Rodman was a source of controversy throughout his career and re- ceived significant attention from NBA commissioner David Stern. In 1997, Stern qualified his authority to punish Rodman and NBA play- ers generally, stating "I want to make it clear that I'm not going to punish [Rodman] for what he does off the court. I'm going to let the media crucify him for that. .This is still America, and my jurisdiction is still the basketball court."' Despite this statement, David Stern has enjoyed expansive discipli- nary authority that extends beyond the basketball court, micromanag- ing virtually all player conduct so long as it is related to a player's employment with the NBA.

    “STRIVE FOR CLARITY, BUT ACCEPT AND UNDERSTAND AMBIGUITY. That phrase captures one way in which an educated person approaches the world and its challenges. Students who graduate from the University of Maryland have been exposed to the tools that allow them to put that perspective to work. Imparting such a perspective may be an ambitious project for undergraduate education, but to aim for anything less would be unworthy of a great university’s goals for its students. Thirteen years ago, Promises to Keep, a plan for undergraduate education at Maryland, articulated those goals so eloquently we repeat them here. Undergraduate education at Maryland “aims to provide students with a sense of identity and purpose, a concern for others, a sense of responsibility for the quality of life around them, a continuing eagerness for knowledge and understanding, and a foundation for a lifetime of personal enrichment.” As we learn with and from one another, we try to “develop human values,” “celebrate tolerance and fairness,” “contribute to the social conscience,” “monitor and assess private and collective assumptions,” and “recognize the glory, tragedy and humor of the human condition.” Your years at the University of Maryland can provide you with all the tools you need to accomplish these goals. Students here are “educated to be able to read with perception and pleasure, write and speak with clarity and verve, handle numbers and com pu ta tion proficiently, reason mathematically, generate clear questions and find probable arguments, reach substantiated conclusions and accept ambiguity.” AND WE ALSO HOPE YOU ENJOY THE JOURNEY.

  • THE ALL-IN-ONE AUDIOBOOK Combining an Easy-To-Use Player with an Entire Audiobook
    t began, in 1979, as a modest idea of televising local sporting events throughout Ithe state of Connecticut, on a new cable channel called “Entertainment and Sports Programming Network.” Today, ESPN is arguably the most successful network in modern television history, spanning eight channels in the United States and around the world. Online or mobile, in HD, 3D, or print, it is an unprecedented media empire. Presidents have applauded it, parents have named children after it, and some of its personalities have become more celebrated than the superstar athletes they cover. But the inside story of its rise has never been fully told—until now. Drawing upon over five hundred interviews with the greatest names in ESPN’s history—among them Keith Olbermann, Dan Patrick, Chris Berman, Bob Ley, Linda Cohn, Tony Kornheiser, Robin Roberts, Bill Simmons, Jim Rome, Erin Andrews, Lou Holtz, Barry Melrose, Tom Jackson, and Dick Vitale—and an all-star collection of some of the world’s finest athletes, bestselling authors James Andrew Miller and Tom Shales take us behind the cameras, into the locker rooms, and deep inside the ESPN “campus” in Bristol, Connecticut. Here, in their own words, the men and women who made ESPN great reveal the secrets behind its success—as well as the many scandals, rivalries, off-screen battles, and triumphs that have accompanied that ascent. From the unknown producers and business visionaries to the most famous faces on television, it’s all here. JAMES ANDREW MILLER is the author of Running in Place: Inside the Senate and coauthor of the national bestseller Live from New York: An Uncensored History of “Saturday Night Live.” He has worked in virtually all aspects of journalism—as well as on the entertainment side of television production and development—for more than twenty years.
