I disagree completely with you saying no one gives a fukk about his opinion, he's a billionaire & owns an NBA team. His comments, especially in the wake of the Sterling scandal, have been a lighting rod of controversy, which is why there has been so much heated debate about it. To say no one gives a fukk about his opinion isn't being honest at all
I agree with both of you to some degree. To say nobody gives a fukk about his opinion isn't really true as this has been on ESPN all day, and this thread is 50 pages deep. I didn't find out about this until noon today, when I hit the break room pissing off of all the women in there watching soaps as I turned the channel to ESPN with no fukks given. I still haven't read or heard all of Cuban's thoughts entirely, but I myself am very curious. Plus as you mentioned, Cuban is a man of wealth and influence. That alone deserves some attention which its naturally recieving and generating discussion.
I have to agree though as well with FukkaPaidemail's sentiments on the outrage too though. I really don't get the outrage. The reason I say that is because when situations like Sterling, the 80 year old cop that just resigned in New Hampshire, Cliven Bundy's comments, etc., when these situations come to prominence in the media, I never get angry. To the contrary, I feel a measure of satisfaction because it confirms that any suspicions I have about white people are valid. I can't remember the homie's name on here that said he was "uber-pissed" about Sterling, but for the life of me I couldn't relate. Others on this thread, within the last few pages have expressed similar emotional responses, and I just don't get it. It's almost like they've had their head in the sand about white people or something. Like brehs, you really didn't know that plenty of them, if not most of them, either fear or hate you? Sometimes both? At the very least, even if they don't hate you, don't want to be around too many of us at a time. What'd you dudes think? That they love you, wanted to embrace you, and you've only now been disappointed to find out otherwise? I don't get it man. I swear at times it's like we set ourselves up for personal disappointment when we invest ourselves emotionally into these subjects.
On another note, on the surface from the little that I read and heard, Cuban's thoughts in isolation don't disturb me. There's a side of me that actually likes the fact that he expressed himself as it creates necessary conversation. There's far too much hush-hush going on. Cuban expressed thoughts that even white people that you call your friends won't express to you, and they may even be in self-denial thinking that they really don't have any racial hangups. That said, I ain't mad at Cuban for this one. You'd have an easier time pulling a camel through the eye of a needle before getting most white people to openly express their personal views on race. Even the liberal ones, matter fact especially the liberal and progressive ones, plenty of them will tell you what they want you to hear and even worse what they think you want to hear. All that does is create false context and superficial discussions.
am coooool, am avoiding them nikkas fukk DAT!
He better try to get Kevin Love.
