Re: Racism in the NBA and NFL
[ QUOTE ]
For many fans, the NBA has become unwatchable.

Why is seeing black fashion an unwatchable event for white America? Is there a legitimate reason for the unwatchability of do-rags and throwback jerseys and gold chains? Why is Johnny Damon's hair not unwatchable? Why were Jim McMahon's earrings not unwatchable?
I'll leave you to draw your own conclusions about that.

So if future players want to earn obscene money for shooting a basket in a net, then maybe they could thank their lucky stars and help try to market the product better instead of being a bunch of spoiled selfish babies.

How does forcing black athletes to abandon their personal and cultural sense of fashion make the product BETTER? Different maybe...more white, maybe. But what is intrinsically BETTER about collared shirts than throwback jerseys?

If you think that's racist, then call me a racist.

I don't think I will. I know nothing about you other than that your opinion differs from mine.
