You have no credibility. If you could make a rational argument you'd be making it. You've so thoroughly discredited yourself you've done more work in this thread than I ever could. Because people may resist my harsh style and message, but do you think anyone in this thread wants to be linked...

Cat and mouse? I'm just asking you to outline the events and facts that led to the NBA suspending playoff games. What hsppened? Then if it's injustice it will be pretty clear and people can celebrate the NBA doing the right thing by boycotting themselves. You don't actually know what happened...

I see atheletes. You see skin color. Reported for racism and race trolling. How easy would it be for you to outline the injustice of the incident that lead to the NBA suspending playoff games. You could show their boycott (of themselves?) was justified AND demonstrate what huge racists we...

Moving the goalposts? Wrong sport for that. Please outline the injustice in the incident that lead directly to the NBA suspending playoff games. They suspended games. Over what? Please inform us all of the facts. You're on the right side of history, I thought, it should be easy to wtfpwn us!

how about just the handful of big name events where NBA players are literally wearing mantras on their uniforms to say their names? Or the incident that lead to the NBA suspending playoff games? Do it. Outline the injustices so we can be informed. Edit: meant to quote whatshisdick but whatever...

That was a quick dodge! By bitching out you're looking like you don't have an answer and are willing to let a Trump supporter win. There seem to be a lot of apolitical people in this thread, or those on the fence. If you can't explain or defend your position you're letting them only see one...

Attention to what injustice? Maybe we just don't understand. Please explain the injustice.

I can't tell if the people responding with confusion over any of this are serious or being very sarcastic. How can the NBA be in bed with China while also supporting racial justice and equality? BLM has leadership that were political terrorists and themselves identify as trained Marxists...

Hol' up. But not harder than black Americans. Sorry, Black Americans. Surely Black Americans have worse outcomes worldwide. Proven by the George Floyd and BLM protests throughout Europe trying to finally being equality to oppressed Black Europeans.

Hard to even find info on the "exchange" as one headline called it, so I guess they both said inappropriate things? Even without the "white" aspect isn't that against some rule now? Calling another player a bitch ass boy is sexist and could be argued to be homophobic. Haven't fans been booted...

Yeah, the whole mortgage thing was shitty and bad, but nothing seemed to indicate it was intentionally malicious or fraud. Just like, so far, nothing seems to indicate Curt was involved in the gofundme fraud. These things seem more complicated and nuanced than Curt being bad or a criminal, but...

I tend to believe accusations or discussions of criminality or criminal language be dealt with things like evidence. What evidence is there that even points in the direction of Curt defrauding anyone? Closest thing to fraud would be him being (or at least trying to be) generous to employees with...

Maybe, but how about we wait for some evidence to come out before jerking off over an article that is a thinly veiled attempt to attack Trump and Trump supporters. And there was a lot of mistakes made with 38 studios, but embezzlement? You sure?

Shit article. Political hit job by fake news enemy of the people. Guilty by association is something people on these forums should be very wary of.

I'm shocked the social justice mob wasn't satiated by the Redskins name change. Just shocked. Better start brainstorming new names for the Chiefs, because the team management and ownership seem like huge weak spined homosexual gays and it's only a matter of time. Some of these activists should...

I feel your pain. I grew up in Northern California in a huge Giants and 49er family, and as the black sheep I rooted for the A's and Raiders, and was the only person in my family that followed basketball and finally the Warriors got worth watching and I had some bragging rights. At one point...

Well, sure, let's talk Trump. The difference is Trump has been branded a racist based on bullshit. I can comfortably say I support Trump and defend against accusations of my being racist because of it by discussing it and showing the accusations of racism against him are unfounded slander, and...

That's even worse and makes me want to watch the NBA even less. I could understand if they simply had principles or a cause they believe in that just happens to disagree with my own, but the fact they're willing to adopt such a drastic position that demonizes so many and then shrug if off...

So you're saying Luka could maybe challenge Nowitzki for a spot in the top 20 of all time?

I just hope the message on his jersey can finally bring equality for African Americans in Slovenia. Or do a lot of BLM speak Slovenian? I dunno, it's confusing having very rich foreign athletes in America kneeling during our anthem. Seems disrespectful, doesn't it, because what relevance does it...

Any risk isn't worth it? Kids are at an extremely low risk of contracting Covid. And if they do, risk of having major health issues from it, much less dying, are statistically practically non-existant. So, yeah, I understand that people have irrational fears, but they're still largely...

China money is so good for the NBA they don't need to care about American fans, or America. I think merch sales do still matter, though. If the shoe and clothing brands start taking a big enough hit from sports being anti-American BLM propaganda maybe there will be pushback. Probably won't...

I haven't been watching, obviously, and assumed it was mostly just pre-game or half-time bullshit and commercials the same way that chatter has always been bullshit. But the propaganda and messaging being that large a part of the commentary? WTF! Didn't know it was that bad. Though they'd at...

Wait, like when? Like during the game the commentary is SJW BLM stuff?

Started reading thread assuming a case with video would be solved by the end of the thread, not just left a mystery. Very rustled. Searched online. Not much new but this from the last few days...

I almost feel like people in these sports threads would be more informed if they didn't screech like children anytime anything was posted or discussed that had broader social and political implications...

You raise a good point. Sure, Many of these players may have come from poor neighborhoods, but were perhaps hood famous from being good at sports and raised in a culture that believed lies regarding police brutality and racism. That creates a stranger brew of victim mentality and actual...

https://www.nytimes.com/2020/02/28/world/middleeast/coronavirus-iran-confusion.html#:~:text=Elham%20Sheikhi%2C%2023%2C%20a%20prominent%20athlete%20from%20Isfahan,sports%20federation%20—%20she%20was%20alive%20and%20healthy. Phew. The player of an indoor form of soccer, definitely in peak...

Wait, so we had to shut down the entire economy, cancel school and force everyone possible into isolation so the hospitals wouldn't be overrun. And after months of mass protesting excused by Democrat politicians and even healthcare professionals, even more people got fed up with isolation and...

Would love to get more insight on this in one of the relevant threads where it would be more appropriate to respond.

It doesn't sound like your hospital is being overrun, though, even now, Even after months of gatherings and protests and what seems to be the prevailing attitude of people now where they'll play along with things like masks, but most of what I see is people just doing whatever they way anyhow...

From my perspective, it was kinda more like doctors and scientists started talking about strategies and politicians took over and based policy on the "if even one person dies" idea, which is a terrible position to base risk management. And of course the media just wanted chaos for clicks, and...

Definitely. So people with comorbidities or otherwise at high risk should definitely take precautions. What percent would be at high risk, and at what percent does that shift the burden from them taking precautions to shutting it all down? That seems to be the question, and for society as a...

Are these the same overrun hospitals that were furloughing employees and cutting hours, or the hospitals in NY that were so overwhelmed they didn't use the temporary infrastructure set up or the hospital ship sent for relief? Or are you talking about the hospitals that are "full" now because...

Sure, people should be able to sit out for medical reasons. Like any business or event or function, we should have the few who need special protection get it on an individual level, not by widespread mandates and overreactions. I think the question is should the entire season be cancelled or...

I'm sure there are a lot of reasons on both sides of the argument. Some players want to play, some don't. From there people will rationalize and back-fill a "because" to fit their desire. That equation probably changes most when the question becomes whether players still get paid even if they...

Was he hospitalized due to Covid, or just with Covid? I don't think pneumonia deaths are even counted as flu deaths when the flu seems the initial cause, but with Covid suddenly everything is counted as Covid. Is that because of a broader political and social narrative? I know it's fun to play...

And so concerned he had the 'Rona they just told him to practice social distancing and mailed him a positive result a couple weeks later. Very scary stuff. They seemed very concerned he would drop dead instantly or kill everyone in the NFL.

From the article before the trial: Daaaamn. Ice burn. Talk about a case: members of the jury, she doesn't have the mental ability to consent, just listen to her! The defense claimed it was just regular ol' prostitution, that maybe involved a gun, from a girl hired through a babysitting...

I'd like to ask you to try to stay on a related topic and not just hurl insults. How many blacks were murdered by police last year, and why hasn't Kaepernig's kneeling prevented it? Remember when Michael Bennet lied about his Las Vegas incident and still duped the NFL into donating millions to...
