The get away with it in the NBA since it isn't a sport it is entertainment.

In the FIBA games the refs are terrible.

One of the poker sites I have in my RSS quoted another US Olympian as saying he would often play online 10 hours a day as well. No indication of which site or screen name though. I didn't know if him playing poker was legit or a level - the site was Wicked Chops Poker and, in addition to their penchant for scantily clad women, they like to...stir the pot...from time to time. Guess it seems to be legit!

Unlikely that I'll run into him this Sunday while I'm there though...

Apparently Phelps plays on Full Tilt, not sure his screen name but there have been suggestions in threads on P5's. Also SCTrojans says he would give phelps free coaching so wonder what might happen if he actually does that.

Let's not exaggerate.

I'm not an NBA fan but this is pretty much bullshit.

It's not the WWE but it isn't just pure sport. And I am a fan of the NBA.
