That's fine. Like I said, I'm not likely to be in an NBA brawl anytime soon.

But just because someone is paying your medical bills doesn't mean you want to have medical bills, you know what I'm sayin'?

Just as an aside, looking at the average NBA player and the average NBA official, I see quite the size and age mismatch there that can't be good for the guys in grey. I can't see how the NBA could say to its officials "We want you in there with those 22-year-old 6-8, 250 pound guys breaking it up, even though you're 5-8 and 50 years old and sell insurance in the off-season."
