Comments: We win or no money back!

I wonder how much of this stuff isn't hyped up the leagues and the TV stations to get interest in their games and up the ratings.

But on the other hand, look no further than the Lakers. It seems like they coast and blow games all the time, and don't kick into overdrive until the other team does or says something to piss them off. I think a $10+ mil contract should be enough motivation to always give it your all and play to win.

People do some crazy ass shit on reality TV to get a million dollars. logic would hold that these athletes would at least work hard every game to earn theirs. it's a lot easier than eating a barrell of leeches in a Speedo while hanging from an airplane or whatever the hell it is that goes on with Fear Factor.
