Basically this is what happens when the 29 other owners are forced to jointly subsidize one team in the league. NBA should've sold the team to Ellison when they had the chance.

Fascist in the sense that the owner of a team nixed a trade? It's not like the Players Association vetoed it.

I think it's more that he is curious about the subject and doesn't want to wade through 1500 posts full of inside jokes about epipen.

Trade veto seems pretty thread worthy imo.

team owners reject trades made by their team quite often

does anyone recall the name of the super talented sprinter during the 1980s out in California that was very promising as a junior but kept getting injured and then flamed out?

Oh this pisses me off. He had an unusual name and he had a famous-ish race where he seemed to close the last 100m of a 4x400 relay in an instant to come back and win.

I'm going to go nuts trying to find this.

Edit: WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

Obea Moore

I realize it's after the time frame you mentioned, but his story is similar and I was reminded of it.

Here's a pretty funny story about how an Oklahoma State employee used a university credit card to buy sex toys and other stuff totaling $80k:

Purchases named as 'lab equipment' in university records were in reality items such as a DVD player, an underwater puzzle and booty shorts.
She spent $2,300 on sex toys, lingerie and other clothing, $530 on makeup and $284 on video games and DVDs, including one on how to lose weight.

hopefully she returned the booty shorts.
