[JOBAKKA]

WOW - Am very glad to see two posters who get it.

How could posters be so selfish to wish Jodie anything but best wishes. He played for YOUR program and did what he was uspposed to do. Isn't college about preparing young people for their future? Isn't college about creating job opportunities that will secure you and your family for life?

Instead, we have selfish comments from folks who will sit on their couch and root for championships at the cost of a young man making a future? For those making such posts, how would you feel when everyone starts blasting you for quitting McDonalds cashier job to take the Janitors job at your local elementary school that guarantees you benefits and a raise.

Get real!

These are athletes playing a game in hopes of getting paid some day. HOW COULD ANYONE OF YOU DENY AN ATHLETE OF THAT! Are you going to commit to your job regardless of any offers that you get from someplace else? NO!

What should be most important in Jodie Meeks life. Creating a career that pays him NOW! Or stay at UK to try and help them when the couch potato's at home a National Championship? He owes you NOTHING!

Yeah Jodie got a JOB. Best of luck to him. I always love how you post what everyone else should be posting or thinking I guess you are a member of the thought police. I hope he makes a ton but I am stating I know Jodie has been misinformed by some close and I hope he is not to disappointed in the outcome. Sorry I am not as thoughtful and compassionate as you claim to be. No where did I post anything about him playing at Kentucky my frustration was for his future. But like I said even playing in Europe is more than many of us have accomplished. again the required Best wishes.
