JustinCharge 2,397 Posted July 4, 2020 This will backfire the second a player's request gets denied. Then the entire team will kneel again for that reason, boycott, and demand Roger Stern be fired even though he's not been commissioner for a billion years. The NBA will slowly find themselves trapped where they can't refuse requests because players balk, but can't accept requests because it drives away fans. This might kill the league. End result could be players all boycott and start their own league. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

kilroy69 994 Posted July 6, 2020 I love it. I think it should include things like "graduate" "2 parent households win" "get a job right out of high school" these are the 3 things the Brookings institute says keeps you out of poverty and a life of crime. How about. "20 million black abortions since 73 = half of the total." Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Yeah but AA kids cannot compete, we are told this everyday, so we have to lower the bar......I want the NFL to fix their racial disparity issues next.
