[labrokejames]

Yall see how CNN did Chuck? Used his mugshot as the display pic

That shyt is fukking foul

 

[philmonroe]

thing is 95% of nba owners have been silent so far, but i do think when time comes, it will be like butch giving tony the ok to wack phil

They not speaking because like Bomani said its tough to when you might be doing similar things just like them politicians. Everybody should know that by now. Honestly how much would you speak out when you know you got shyt that could bring you down just as easily?

Mark Jackson's call for a boycott is some cowardly diversionary bullshyt, by the way. Why is the onus on the fans? Don't pass the ethical buck, you fake preacher, stripper-sexing chump. YOU take a stand and boycott. YOU link up with Doc Rivers and devise a protest of significance. Demand that the owners all hold a joint press conference expressing outrage at Sterling and support for the players and blacks in general. Don't pass the ethical buck to the fans. fukk that bullshyt.

Spoiler

But he's so much more well mannered...

Yes! exactly what I was saying.

Another Capt. Jack quote: "the uniform thing wasn't enough for me. They had a perfect opportunity to take a stand and end it now. Kill it now"

 

[J-Fire]

I can understand the Clips motivation to still play and I see how difficult the situation is for them. But to try and downplay the situation and say things like "they just need to focus on basketball" is some tap dancing bullyshyt to me. At the least they should speak their minds like you said.

speaking ya mind gets ya crucified like kobe and pharell. No comment is usually the way to go.

partially, but reality is imo, many of these dudes have owned nba teams for years, they are all friends for the most part. Billionaire friends who probably lend each other money on the side, dudes who share common interests etc.

if you notice the owners who spoke out so far and condemned are either minorities (jordan, vivek), mickey arison who has lebron, wade, and bosh and carnival cruises and would be questioned and touch his money if he didn't speak.

peter **** a non jew who ofught in vietnam

all the old owners and other jewish owners are quiet as hell

 

[Jesus]

Stephen Jackson: "You know they all just want to be politically correct. I'm the same guy who Tim Duncan called the ultimate teammate. I'm the same guy who jumped in the stands and put my job on the line for my teammates. But I'm also the same guy who would have burned that uniform because I'm a proud black man"

Just lost a little respect for my homeboys and my dad for saying they would play when we were discussing this Saturday...I'm the only one who said I would sit. fukk the MLK approach.

 

[dem bath salts]

bruh stop it stop slurping off bron i fukks with bron but dont act like most stars in the nba wouldnt have said the same thing

Let that boy live. He's come into the light of the Kang

 

[Reverend Jesse Jackson]

Shelly Sterling is so full of it.

I'm not really in the camp of wanting to call Doc and his players c00ns. I definitely wish he had done things differently. I'm disappointed, sure. But dude is in such an unenviable position... All of this points to a much more pressing issue that no on has cared to address for decades. Our leadership collapsed. We have nothing. We don't have prominent leaders who would call and advise Doc, offer strategies and support. Integration into the mainstream kind of worked the way a lot of private charter schools work - you pull the high achievers out of their community, deepening the depressing and perilous conditions of the already underfunded public schools. The private school kids go on to prep school, college, and a corporate job, only to feel completely disconnected from the dominant culture as well as the culture they were once familiar with. nikkas embraced that mythical American individualism bullshyt, went for self, and the support systems eroded. Yeah, Doc comes off as weak, and the Clippers' protest looks tepid... But who has their back, man? We can't even get intelligent, informed, uncompromising blacks on the air fam. Step back from the situation and let it marinate: the media's go-to voices on this were Stephen A. Smith, Shaquille, Charles Barkley, and Jalen Rose. Those brothers are a lot of things - amusing, raw, personable - but they aren't fit for the sort of commentary needed. The issues we face in society are bigger than basketball and rap, but our spokespeople barely exist beyond basketball players and rappers. And I'm sorry, jive ass Iron Mike Dyson and the mad Dr. Of Afros aka Cornyay West don't have the integrity to lead or inspire nikkas. The demise of black intellectual leadership is what puts Doc, CP3, and all of us in these lose-lose situations. nikkas lack guidance and clarity. And the demise of that shyt was not accidental.

I've been thinking a lot about the magnitude of this situation and how absurd it is that we're asking fukking Doc Rivers and Chris Paul to uphold the mantle of Rosa Parks here.

This story is of larger importance than the usual racial controversies we're used to, like Don Imus, Dog the bounty hunter etc. This is more than just a cracker saying some dumb shyt. This really shone a lot on a type of racism that isn't usual visible (though its consequences are) but no less insidious. We're used to Fox News style, rabid angry white man racism. It's become so inundated that it barely illicits a reaction anymore.

This is a little different. This isn't some uneducated white dude who perhaps got shafted by deindustrialization and neoliberalization like everybody else, but misdirects his anger toward blacks, gays, Mexicans or whoever. Sterling is a member of the ownership society...a 1%er...a rich Jewish Democrat. A lot of those dudes look at black people as an inferior servant class and its obvious, but they're usually savvy enough to not say it. It's like the stars aligned with his comments coming on the heels of the comments by that Yosemite Sam ass inbred cowboy in Nevada. We got the uncouth old-fashioned good ol boy version, then we got the elitist, Woodrow Wilson version.

I wouldn't have played if I was a Clipper. But I do empathize with the situation they're in. They're just dudes trying to follow their passion and get paid. They're in the middle of a playoff series trying to fight for what they prepared all season for, and they suddenly learn they're viewed as slaves by their employer, who they generate money for. They're thrust into that position in real time with the whole world watching while they're trying to win a championship. They didn't ask for that. But sometimes history calls on people. History is full of pivotal actions by people who didn't seek to make itbut ended up doing so by happenstance.
