The union could really use an “assist”–get it?

From an ESPN.com story:

The players’ association filed two unfair labor practice charges Friday against the NBA over issues with the new ball and the league’s crackdown on player complaints.

I know this is supposed to be a serious thing, but doesn’t it seem a little absurd? I don’t think this issue should be decided in a court any more credible than Judge Joe Brown‘s. At any rate, get ready to hear some hilarious quotes and headlines. You know, things like “this case is a slam dunk!” or “Players Union’s Case a Jump Ball in Experts’ Eyes!” Good times.

Anyway, I am clearly a freaking genius, as I I anticipated this whole ridiculous thing in June.
