Message: [QUOTE="EastCoast2, post: 2506902, member: 488"] This is a lazy argument - "the best players already go to a handful of places, so let's let them do whatever they want, that will make it more fair". Maybe you're not an investor if you think that way. The ROI for a booster in this case isn't a player's performance on the court, it's the business the player can drive to the booster's business by sponsoring the player - autograph sessions at clothing store in the mall, speaking at a car dealership, doing commercials for the real estate / landscaping companies, putting their face on their life insurance agency. The difference in spending power between the haves and have nots is exponential. It's not merely 2:1, it's 20:1 and more. [/QUOTE]
