    The sticking points had been the referees' pension plan and severance package, and the two sides were reportedly only $700,000 apart before negotiations broke down.

    That's nothing - this summer, Gary Bettman nearly locked out the NHL referees' union over 2 bags of Fritos and a sixer of Molson.

    This situation reminds me of the classic pro-labor play by Clifford Odets, "Waiting for Kobe."

    Basketball isn't really his sport, but I'd like to see this guy get hired as a replacement ref.

    Incompetent people regaining their old jobs? Rod Blagojevich is listening. This could be a f*cking valuable precedent.

    Are we sure they wore their jerseys inside out in protest, and not to hide the fact that he's just a crazy old man?

    So, the NBA is threatening to replace terrible refs with even worse ones, and the Union is laughing because they think people will notice?

    Isn't this like arguing who's wife is sluttier?

    It appears that by the time the season starts they will be forced to bring in the refs from the Globetrotters-Generals series. I for one would welcome more confetti and pantsing.

    And Stern thought he could keep scabs out of the NBA by banning the Mayfields. Wrong.
