Why did you ever laugh at them? Many of them are making great money doing what they love. Nothing to laugh at there.

Real Sports on HBO had a great segment on Marbury and China back in January.

Why would you laugh at someone going to make a paycheck

Ok, I'm going to help you guys. The subject line was a hyperbole. I didn't actually laugh at anyone; however, Stephon Marbury is exceptional to the max. Hopefully, you can understand the difference between drawing a paycheck and writing the paychecks. Mr. Marbury is making a lot of people a lot of money.

Gotta love this.

"Last year, a musical based on his life called "I Am Marbury" featured him actually on stage in front of 2,000 people playing a God-like figure. Next year, the China Post, the country's postal service, is opening up his own museum in Beijing to celebrate his career with the Ducks.
