I've never paid much attention to the Olympics, but
have always known they are for =amateurs=, no
professional athletes need apply. Now comes a front
page story in the NY Times about the "Dream Team"
of professional basketball players. There was no
background explanatory material in the story.
Could somebody bring me up to date on this situation?
