I ain't go lie though. A lot of HBCU teams are garbage. We need to stop them PWI from getting all the star athletes as well. Offer them boys a better education & scholarship and they should be straight.

I think we could start small with an alternative basketball league that plays during the summer and go from there. We need some big $$$ behind it, tho.

Honestly I doubt if the average black person is even aware that the Negroe Leagues ever existed or have very little knowledge of itLike for basketball and football is the shyt even plausible?

The only way for this to possibly happen is through knowledge of self and past history. We must become more knowledgeable of our past achievements like BlackWallstreet:
Me must gain confidence in ourselves that we can thrive and be self-sufficient from whites and "others". We've done it before but sadly alot of us aren't aware.

Knowledge of the past ain't got shyt to do with matching them numbers that the NBA and NFL can pay these dudes.
