  They are pushing to get football in Europe. They have screwed up Europe with basketball. Sports that require about a week to become a pro. Tennis takes ten years to master.  I'm guessing you are a very pathetic athlete and basketball player and are disgruntled:D If basketball is so easy to go pro at then put your money where your mouth is, I wanna see you suited up in a Lakers uniform next year.:p These NBA players have been playing and training their entire lives. You couldn't even get open for long enough to take a shot with those guys, they'd be all over you like flies on shi# everytime you move with a hand in your face everytime you try to take a shot.
