Which is a lesson Ben Wallace might realize in a few years- and yes I'm bummed- I'm happy the guy got his paycheck but there wasn't that much difference in the offers, PLUS he was getting national ads lately and he won't as part of an also ran team.
Are the cell phone ads with Ben Wallace being late to walk on the court national? there is a feel that maybe the company does one for each market- other towns-did you see Ben in that commercial?
And is Lebron pissed, or was Cleveland just completely capped?

(A) It is a shame for the Pistons, although John Thompson thinks they will adjust better to the loss of Ben than he will adjust to being in Chicago (that was before the Bulls got Posey).
(B) Those ads have been running in the DC area.
(C) Did I miss something? Cleveland offered him a max contract, He hasn't responded -- I can see why that makes them nervous.
