20-Feb-2008
Indianapolis, IN -- Joe Newman, ABA CEO, is the featured guest on "Inside the ABA" this Thursday on Voice America Sports at 1pm Eastern. Host Robby Kendall asks Joe some questions posed by fans about the ABA All Star Game, the ABA Championship Playoffs, competitive leagues, expansion and league goals.

"Joe holds nothing back in this interview," said Kendall. "I asked him some tough questions, controversial questions sent in by fans and he gave candid answers, including naming names. This is a show you don't want to miss."


Hey ABA CEO ... You know it's not nice to name names! :infun:

[The Sweeper]

Ask Joe what happened to "Ask The Trainer". Probably got hired away by one of those "mean spirited leagues".

[preeths]

Didn't the trainer have something to do with the Chicago Throwbacks? If so, their defection to the PBL would explain the end of "Ask the Trainer."

[QC_Hawks_fan]

i saw the "trainer" at the Attack Athletics facility this weekend.

In a past thread we asked Robby if he could have a call in show. He did say if you like to email him a question and he'd pose it to Joe. He has always been stand up about things. The sad thing is when a guy like Robby shows up and is stand up, its so rare in this fiasco of a league he makes himself an easy target.

I don't think the problem is Robby. I will also say that if Joe was to ever screw Robby he would probably come on here and blast away at Newman.

I must admit though I think he cuts and pastes this quote for a number of shows,that bit about...................... "Joe holds nothing back in this interview," said Kendall. "I asked him some tough questions, controversial questions sent in by fans and he gave candid answers, including naming names. This is a show you don't want to miss."

Paul, I just like giving Robby a hard time, knowing he'll never be able to ask the ABA CEO, the real ... "tough and controversial questions" on his radio show.

Again, as I have said numerous times before, I have NOTHING to do with Voice America or what they do with the show. If they run the wrong show or post the wrong archive it is on THEM. Other than giving them the show I have nothing to do with them. They are just an affiliate that chooses to pick up the show. There are others who have done the exact same thing in the past.


As always, the show is available on AudioSportsOnline.com. That is the only site I have control of. It is available now.

1] ABA CEO gets 100-200 Intelligent Questions a week? How come he posts only the unintelligent ones?

2] How can the Utica Wreckers get their ABA All-Star Nomination Form?

3] How long did it take for the Winner of the Big Screen to get his TV?

4] The Jam is no longer Jacksonville's team ... Now it's the Slam! (PBL)

5] ABA is not tampering with the PBL? (Jax, Rockford/Quad Cities, Reading, Wilmington)

6] Will the ABA be returning to Rochester, New York? Appears the group interested in the ABA, doesn't have what it takes to meet the ABA's substandards and lack of requirements ...

Break ...

7] Concern with over-saturation with the Anderson Champions? (Dying Laughing)

8] ABA CEO could have put a team in Rio Grande Market in 2 minutes after that team left for the CBA?

9] ABA CEO stayed away from Jacksonville when they went to the PBL, because he had too much respect for Felix. ABA CEO had a line-up of people to replace Felix? ... Name Them!

10] Sounds like the ABA CEO is at war with the PBL ...

11] ABA CEO is probably the oldest CEO in Professional Sports? (And that has translated toward what amount of success for the ABA?)

12] Hmm ... ABA CEO states the PBL took away the Dallas Defenders team from it's owner. Like it did Jacksonville.

13] ABA CEO spends time figuring out whether a question is a legit question or not? Seems like questions are being 'planted' to trip up the ABA CEO.

14] OSC is the leading website that attacks the ABA. (Hey Preeths, are you listening to this?)

15] ABA CEO states that OSC is a front for the PBL!

Break ...

16] ABA CEO comments on Great Falls of the CBA. States he had no previous knowledge of what's been happening in that market? But now, he has received an e-mail and telephone calls ... so he knows the truth. Sounds like the ABA is happy to recruit teams from the CBA. (Hey CBA, are you listening to this?)

17] ABA CEO has been unindated with expansion inquiries ... Texas, Ohio, Kentucky, Arizona. Hey Tallahassee, Florida ... O'please, don't go any further. Don't ruin a Garnet & Gold market!

18] Does the ABA enjoy being the CEO... Only 80% ? ... How come not 100% ... No matter how tough it is?

19] The ABA CEO just has alot of brotherly love ... He just gave hugs to everybody listed on the ABA website, lol.

20] ABA Asia ... ABA Europe (Russia) ... This is coming from a guy who couldn't run an ABA team in his own hometown?

Break ...

21] YOU have to listen to 44:22 - 47:07 ... Unbelievable! (Are you listening PBL?)

- The ABA CEO finances 80% of all ABA Market Reservations.
- The ABA CEO takes credit for 'making' the ABA teams (and Jax, Wilmington, Rochester and Maryland of the PBL) what they are today, because they used the ABA CEO's "Keys to Success" and the Business Plan/Business Model.
- The ABA CEO believes he has the Best Overall Plan in all of Professional Sports ... with the disclaimer ... *if followed.

21] Yeah Yeah Yeah ... The Ultimate Sales University ... The ABA is saying; "What have you done for me lately ABA CEO???

22] Yes, How are those BOOK deals going for the ABA CEO? Hmm ... A team owner in the ABA, has written many books ... coincidence???"

23] (Two Part Question)
Does the Basketball World think there is a conspiracy for Alex Wolf to win a second ABA Championship? Now why would the ABA CEO get that question alot?

24] Beijing is no-factor in the ABA.

25] Vermont is scared of the rest of the ABA teams going into the playoffs?

Thanks, ABA CEO ... Believe me, I'm not fascinated with your league leadership and management at all.

[tbayz1]

Did anyone else get their paycheck yet? I think mines still in the mail :(

Everyone is on the payroll right?

[LightningMan]

The OSC covers minor league sports for all the major North American sports but it's really just a front for the PBL. Right.

[preeths]

A "front" that predated the PBL by seven years! It's a laughable accusation.

[formerlyknownasfells]

CAN'T......STOP......LAUGHING. Thanks for the comedy Joe, that had to be one of your best shows yet. Nothing like baseless accusations to make yourself feel better about the league. Wow, even for you, this stuff is low.
