NYE 36ers v Perth @ 6PM

anon #112877, I wouldn't call it work, I would call it staying back for after work drinks with your workmates. I don't ask to be paid if I stay back an hour to enjoy a drink with them. Work is what they do on the court during the game, they do get paid for that. As for pissing off the wife by working on NYE, the same goes to the spectators with partners who do not follow the basketball. I have not enjoyed a NYE with my partner for the last 4 years.

If ever the post game celebrations are to be scrapped, this is the year to do it in. Everyone who will be going to the game are expecting a loss, so who wants to stick around after the game and celebrate there. Better go drown your sorrows somewhere else. As far as allowing the players to go off and enjoy it with their family and friends, it makes no difference either way. They don't stay around. They believe they have better things to do than to celebrate New Years Eve with fans. Before I get an ear bashing about the ones that do stay after the game, to be fair 1 or 2 have, the others all disappear as quickly as an icy cold beer on a hot summer's day.
