Fans Mob Jordan Farmar Upon Arrival In Israel

by NetsDaily on Aug 25, 2011 12:04 PM EDT

Deron Williams has another week before he leaves for Istanbul, but Jordan Farmar has already crossed the pond to get to work with his new (and temporary) team. Wearing a "Nice Jewish Boy" t-shirt and carrying his one year old daughter, Farmar was mobbed by Maccabi Tel Aviv fans at the airport on Thursday.

"It's nice to have a lot of support," Farmar said. "They're excited. I'm excited. So I'm happy."

"Some things you just can't question. Like you can't question why two plus two is four. So don't question it, don't try to look it up. I don't know who made it, all I know is it was put in my head that two plus two is four. So certain things happen. Why does it rain? Why am I so sexy? I don't know." - Shaquille O'Neal

Our old friend Dave D. suggests in an article today that NBA players would be better off...

staying in the U.S. and helping out in community’s then helping just themselves out…
Dave sure sounds as ornery as ever…I tend to agree with him…

We’re not surprised by this. The players have pushed the wrong theme all along — nobody who buys a ticket at MSG or Canseco or Staples cares who plays in Turkey or China this winter. It’s as irrelevant as a Kardashian.

They must find a real theme, as the NFL guys did. Get back and reconnect, show the public that you’re not obsessed with your next paycheck. Send each guy back to his neighborhoods once a week. Pick a day and give free clinics in every city in the U.S. Refurbish playgrounds. Look into the cameras and say, "As long we have all this free time, we want to help." Build the player equity. Demand that the union wise up and enhance the brand.
