Yet again a series of news articles have been released about the influx of
players clad with tons of tattoos all over their arms, necks and legs. But
is this truly as distracting to the game as some people say? Just today one
writer said he hated watching the NBA that it had lost the wholesomeness it
once had.
The Minneapolis Examiner article said, "It's actually a novelty to find
players who aren't tattooed. I can think of Dwight Howard, Tony Parker,
and......does Wally Szerbiak have one? I've been watching the conference
finals the past week, and the games have been pretty exciting/ Not many
people would have guessed that the Orlando Magic would be a Lebron
three-pointer away from leading three games to none. But....I can't get
past these tattoos."
I want to know what most sports-fans think. Is there really a loss of
viewership due to the obscene amount of tattoos adorning the players?
