Just curious who else watches it. I work a weird schedule but I watch it every Saturday. Anybody else?

It's an occasional guilty pleasure of mine. The All-Star dunk contest was sick.

The show is sorta neat but the preseason documentery showed that the sport made the mistake of taking themselves WAY too seriously. It was beyond hard to watch and has soured me on the show.

I can't imagine the players got paid squat, it really is for the glory, the fun, and a line on a resume. Nothing wrong with that.

I really dont watch it because it has no cities for the teams. It could be huge it big cities. If they had a team in akron I'd go watch.

granted Akron's not the biggest city (217,000). However, don't you think a Slamball team would get lost in say, New York? All Akron has are the Zips,the Aeros and the Racers (pro softball). its too expensive to see a Cavs game, and it would look pretty good if an Akron team sold out every game at the JAR(max seating 5950). later on, if they really caught on, they could move to cleveland.I just think the team couldnt get major meadia coverage in a huge city.
