After watching that sham of an NBA All-Star “Game” and feeling the same sense of boredom and annoyance as most other viewers, I have one very simple way to fix this. The players on the winning team each get $500,000. The players on the losing team? $5,000. That will get these unenthusiastic millionaires to play harder, that’s for sure.
