QUOTE: “A quick glance at each team’s staff directories listed on their official websites showed about 15 organizations do not list an owner. The Boston Celtics, Charlotte Hornets, Chicago Bulls, Cleveland Cavaliers, Los Angeles Clippers, Miami Heat, New York Knicks, Oklahoma City Thunder, Orlando Magic, Philadelphia 76ers, Phoenix Suns, Sacramento Kings, San Antonio Spurs, Toronto Raptors and Utah Jazz list some kind of variation of chairman, managing partner, chief executive officer or governor.” "................... That’s because there is NO INDIVIDUAL OWNER. Doesn’t exist. Two or more people own the team, thus you have a Chairman or Managing Partner or other such title. This is the case of the OKC Thunder, which is actually owned by Professional Basketball Club LLC. Professional Basketball Club LLC is owned by several Oklahoma people, each with a different percentage of ownership. This results in Clayton Bennett being the Chairman. It’s a bit more complicated but that’s it in a nutshell. I have no idea where “Governor” came from. . | |||

This was one of Dennis Prager's topics today. A gentleman of color called in and conversed fairly calmly with Mr. Prager defending the decision that the term "owner" has a negative connotation because of slavery. Mr. Prager asked him the simple question, "Do you think Lebron James in any way, shape, or form lives a similar life to a slave"? Sounds like a basic yes/no question and I believe 100% of us on this board would readily answer NO. The gentleman caller couldn't even give a yes/no answer, but instead stated that because Lebron had had the "N-word" written on his garage door, then yes...he lived the life of slavery. Mr. Prager's conclusion is that again, the Left has chosen a stance that simply waters down the true meaning of the term "slavery", as they've done with "nazi", "racist", "facist", and so many other terms to now include "concentration camp". Moronic...I swear to all that is good and holy, ANYTHING and EVERYTHING the Left touches, INSTANTLY turns into this: "If you’re a leader, you lead the way. Not just on the easy ones; you take the tough ones too…” – MAJ Richard D. Winters (1918-2011), E Company, 2nd Battalion, 506th Parachute Infantry Regiment, 101st Airborne "Woe to those who call evil good, and good evil... Therefore, as tongues of fire lick up straw and as dry grass sinks down in the flames, so their roots will decay and their flowers blow away like dust; for they have rejected the law of the Lord Almighty and spurned the word of the Holy One of Israel." - Isaiah 5:20,24 | |||
