I'm too old for what? How long have you been checking me out regarding my thoughts on Donald Sterling? You have my posting history down to a science?

I'm looking for my fake outrage. I genuinely dislike institutional practices of racism. I find black people that important to me. That isn't fake....just something for you to call fake to make your wack and shytty irrelevant deflection posts sound important.

why argue with jilla82? dude can type all this contrarian bs, but he said nothing when he was being robbed on a chicago train for his ipod and bag in broad daylight.

I can appreciate that Silver hasn't been in position long enough to speak on why Sterling didn't get his comeuppance years ago... but I still ain't satisfied on why it took a situation that forced the league, through trepidation of its image into action, rather than ending it before it even had a chance to run.

Sterling been doing a marathon on the league, 'cheating' all along the way in public view and it's only now he gets dealt with after he's had all the glory of winning and gold that goes along with it......

don't ask me any more questions. You're just dumb. Look at your chik fil a example....as if I had to fill out some mythical quota of things to be outraged over in order for my dislike for racism against black people to be viewed as genuine. :heh:

You're just a shyt poster that posts with no value.

Could somebody explain the press conference from the player union claiming that boycotting was an option?:shaq2:
It's like don't get brolic when the pressure and threat has passed

Capn Jack and maybe 1 or two others, I recall reading that they claimed they would've not played. While from Magic to SAS and various sport braodcasters mentioned that they should play. And we can't forget the actual t-shirt protest and Doc's "sophisticated and mature" approach:rudy:

The 215
People in the league knew.
Everybody shook his hand and sat w/ him...he got sued for housing discrimination and nobody cared.
Thats all im saying.

NYC Rebel youre too old for that. Why werent you speaking up about Sterling before?
Im not defending dude (he getting what he deserved)...im just saying every time there is some huge media story there is a lot of fake outrage. I say the same thing no matter which group at the moment is offended (gays, women, right wing republicans, blacks etc...). This is just the current big media story...there will be a new one next week.

Were you riding for gays during Chick Fil A?
I agree with you but that's life man honestly people are selfish and worried about what affects them first and otherwise don't care much about it. That's one big reason why we can have all these different types of isms because of that and that'll never go away IMO. We also don't have enough time to champion everything that goes off wrong so that's another reason why people mainly put their energy into big stuff like this. I do agree regardless of the issue the grandstanding at times is like that Mutombo gif.

Everyone that's celebrating this is being extremely short-sighted. Adam Silver and the NBA's PR team just salvaged one of the biggest potential meltdowns you'd have likely ever seen in your life. Name another time when athletes will ever be in a position to boycott with public opinion behind them? They had a chance to restructure the entire league and cause some serious debates over race and class in this country, and the Silver/the NBA understood this. It wasn't just about Sterling.The NBA had to distance themselves and keep good standing with the public (hence the "investigation" into what we all knew to be true) and this decision to ban Sterling only make the league out to be the hero... This is only a moral victory for an unsuspecting public. Sterling still owns the team and for $2.5 million dollars, he was just given the opportunity to set the price to his liking which the league will be obliged to pay to maintain their status as the "hero" in this story... None of this would have been possible had the players boycotted and started making their own demands.


They selectively invoke free speech the same way the selectively invoke the Constitution. The same way they selectively support the mythical meritocracy when it works for them, and expect reform of credentials when it doesn't. It's all sick, base, transparent self-interest. Same people who dismiss police brutality claims when photographic evidence has nikkas' heads looking like a hybrid of a pumpkin and a squash looked at a small cut on Zimmerman's head and decided he was justified in shooting an unarmed teenager. Same people who tell opponents of the paternalistic dress code and un-American age limit "NBA is a private organization, they can do whatever they want, deal with it" suddenly are screaming "those were private conversations, the NBA can't just do whatever they want here!" The beat goes on.

That's the whole thing that a lot of whites don't get: blacks who are intensely interested in this Sterling shyt don't really give half a fukk about what this scumbag is saying in private to his extramarital whore. We want to force conversations about the larger implications, the reactions, and the spirit and philosophy that demeans us and relegates us to the scrap heap in this society. And these dumb fukks still don't get that white supremacy and racism are diseases that kill them too. We're living in times where scientists are wearily shouting "we're past the point of no return," resources are becoming more scarce, the poverty gap is widening, and a specific collective ransacked the American economy... Yet these dense, simple fukks are still yelling at their TV about Jay-Z's medallion and violence in Chicago.
