NBA Lockout Hurting the Escort Service Industry


We’ve all read the heartbreaking stories of all those people whose lives have been turned upside down by the NBA lockout — arena workers, team support staff, NBA media folk, etc. — but won’t anyone think of the escorts, for crying out loud? They’re people, too. CNBC knows that, and is on the case: “A 30 percent decline seems to be the magic number, even for Henry, who runs an escort service in New York that he says charges between $400 and $4,000 an hour, depending on the woman. Henry says he takes between 65 and 80 percent of the total cut to match the players and other high-profile fans, who are with the client an average of four hours. ‘There are replacements but they aren’t as consistent and not nearly as high paying,’ Henry said.

Berger.

While the shift from negotiating to the courts has caused some moderate owners to soften their position and favor a settlement, sources say some hard-line owners have dug in even more and "want to make the players pay," one of the people said.


And I'm sure there are players that feel like they want to make the OWNERS pay, but unfortunately, they write the checks..

This sucks.

With NBA players and owners locked in a labour dispute which set aside the games through December 15 and might ultimately clear throughout the season, we wanted to know what you think about the future of basketball. In a poll telephone scientific national survey Position that we requested, with the negotiations and impasse of the season at risk, you care if ever again NBA basketball? A majority of Americans, 61% reported that they do not care, did care 24% and 14% had no opinion.

The labour dispute focuses on revenue sharing. Talks were destroyed and the action is passed of negotiations before the courts. Unless there is a breakthrough the status of this season is uncertain and research more dark per day.

African Americans made care if there was never basketball NBA again with 48% saying yes, 35% said no, they indifferent and 17% had no opinion. Different white with 68% saying that they indifferent if it was ever NBA basketball again, 21% and 11% not offered no opinion.

More men that women indifferent if NBA basketball never returned with 67% of men by saying that they indifferent, 56% of women who said that they would also not be supported.

Politicians differ on the issue with 52% of Democrats, saying that they indifferent if there was ever basketball again, 61% of Republicans, said they indifferent. A large number of independent, 73% say that they indifferent if the NBA never returned. Democrats apparently Miss basketball more with 31% saying that they care if ever basketball the NBA again.

@darrenrovell NBA union tells players in memo they'll each receive an additional $58K from NBA because of a "shortfall."

What does that mean

[pmatic]

I could be wrong, but I think it has to do the league not spending enough in salaries this past season, so the players are now getting the full 57% owed to them from the BRI. Hence the "shortfall".
