#1 Posted: 4/11/2012 4:05:03 PM What a bunch of greedy people. Like the multi-million dollar contracts and endorsement deals aren't enough.

I say don't pay these people, if they want to represent their country then fine if not the stay the darn home! There's other NBA or NCAA players who would play for nothing to represent their country.
It's about national pride not money...unreal these greedy person.

It's almost like they've forgotten where they (most of them) come from...the friggin HOOD. Should appreciate where they are now for playing a friggin sport instead of being greedy like that.. |

Some sports they do some don't but, those athletes ain't getting paid like the NBA players that's for sure. They get rewarded depending if they medal or not. The majority of them compete for national pride. NHL players don't get extra pay from the Canada to represent Canada, hell no.
Wade is saying he misses the summer, they sell jerseys etc, etc so they should be compensated. Sounds like a bunch of excuses.

#7 Posted: 4/11/2012 5:09:38 PM These miami person are so easy to root against. I cant believe I used to actually like Wade. I'm glad I had Dallas last year.. who could forget him and lebron mocking Dirk with the "coughing".

#9 Posted: 4/11/2012 7:20:27 PM Dwayne Wade is not patriotic. I wonder if he even cared when we captured Osama Bin Laden last year. What a punk! |

#18 Posted: 4/11/2012 8:59:24 PM Yeah so you work for a company and get paid 500k a year. They decide instead of you taking 4 week vacation in the year you should just go from your home to another country for 4-8 weeks and DO IT FOR FREE ? You're nuts man. Dwade has job just like we all do it's just he is paid to play a game he loves. Most of us work and do jobs we don't enjoy day in and day out to live. |

#19 Posted: 4/11/2012 9:03:47 PM If he wants to get paid then he should pawn or sell his medal on ebay, that should be good enough incentive to win gold for his greedy behind. smh.

#20 Posted: 4/11/2012 11:53:24 PM Dwayne Wade needs the money. He's doing the best he can to catch Calvin Murphy as the "Father of the NBA. He's got kids all over the country. In Miami, they have to make sure there's no holes in the beach sand at night because Dwayne Wade tries to stick his person in any hole he can find. |

#21 Posted: 4/11/2012 11:58:13 PM I agree with him only because of one reason. These people that run the Olympics are all corrupt and make Billions of all these athletes so why shouldn't Wade and all athletes get their fair share? |
