The NBA has decided that they will no longer use the word "owner".

Ummm...what?

Apparently some of the spoiled brat players don't like being paid their millions by "owners".The owners will henceforth be known as governors of their teams or something silly like that.

Oh get the F out of here. Good Lord. It's time I died, because I'm sick of living in this snowflake world.

I swear man, thank God I'm close to 50...because I hate to see what the world is like 40-50 yrs from now!

Yikes, I don't want to be mentally scarred for life.

What about the word "player"? Sounds kinda pejorative. Like it's not a real profession.
Do they really need "guards"? That evokes a certain image of brutality and oppression.
