OKCGeneSo the NBA players are boycotting.... themselves?
Just watching the local TV news and saw where the Milwaukee team decided to not play and that they are boycotting the NBA.
I guess that's it in a nutshell.
I'm really tired of crybaby spoiled rotten sports players. You know who they are and what I mean.
Overpaid, spoiled, egotistical multimillionaires whose contribution to society is being able to run fast, catch and throw balls.

Dwill104Stupid idea thinking that things are going to suddenly change just because some mega millionaires who can dribble and shoot a ball decide not to play. Don’t see anyone, on either side, begging for change just to watch the NBA.

Oat_Action_ManI wonder how many of their millions the members of the team have put back into the neighborhoods they came from or into places like Kenosha.
What if they used their obscene wealth to build businesses, give out black-owned business loans, clean and revitalize neighborhoods, set up drug rehab programs or anti-homelessness initiatives, etc.?
Hmmm....

esdunbarBaseball is “walking out” too. If they set up a go fund me for green shirt boy, I won’t donate to it yet.
I want to more facts even though I have seen some pretty clear video. Why are these athletes and so many people so quick to jump to conclusions. How many times do the early reports have to be proven wrong before we learn to keep our powder dry?
Based on everything I’ve read, I actually won’t be surprised if the cop in George Floyd’s death gets a not guilty. I legit think Floyd OD’d. Slow your roll everyone....I’m looking at you athletes.

mbinkyTo paraphrase something I read earlier:
"The woke players have done something that conservatives have only dreamed of - they've cancelled the NBA"

heathtxOwners are billionaires and players are millionaires.
I could not care less what happens to pro sports, NFL, MLB, NBA, NHL, etc

HayesGreenerSomeone once commented that things became confused when people started thinking athletes and celebrities were important. One of the lessons Covid has taught us is that we don't need them in the slightest and if pro sports disappeared tomorrow, we would hardly notice.
I wonder how many of them could find a real job?
