Whatever.

I am sure there are things about you that are dispicable.

I have some class and manners, so I will not stand there and point at them like some toothless buffoon.

As the winds shift so do those that see their money being blown down the street; left wing NBA chief’s watching it go trying to shift the winds back into their direction.

That bastard Silver won’t even acknowledge all the people who aren’t on his side, who just want to enjoy a game....I guess it’s in his Leftist totalitarian DNA

“a historically bad Finals TV ratings collapse that surprised many within the league, including Commissioner Adam Silver himself.”

Please answer a simple question.

Exactly what made you think pimping a sports blog on Free Republic would be a good idea?

I'll be waiting right here for your answer.

And waiting.

And waiting.

I just remembered that was Sam Jackson in The Other Guys, not Pulp Fiction. Sorry for the confusing post...

No, actually I just now saw your post and your clarification.

Thanks for a laff at your expense. It’s all part of the fun. :)

You are not a racist but there is something wrong with you.

I find nothing objectionable about Vermont LT's words and actions. I've also been a big sports fan for nearly 60 years, and that included the NBA. It's been relatively easy for me to step away from watching pro sports, though I admit to taking a peek now and then.

Just because an individual doesn't live their life under your standards, it doesn't give you the right to personally attack them. I wish the moderators would be more diligent about penalizing personal attacks.

Those in jeffersondem's camp are not conservatives, far from it. They're just the flip side of the coin bearing an image of BLM.

Nothing, literally nothing, about the NBA is of the slightest interest to me.
In the 1980s - 1990s I was a huge fan. Now, it could disappear and I wouldn’t notice.

It sure surprised me. Who would would have guessed that Americans did not want to watch continuous insults and reminders that we are all classified as "racist" for hours on end?

They didn’t expect this response?

Epic tone deafedness.

Maybe add a deplorable or two to your focus groups, pro sports people.

Thanks for saying that.

I am now only an accidental Celtics fan. My wife, recovering from major surgery is a huge fan—much more than I. If it’s on, I am sitting with her reading. And now that the Celtics are over, so is her season.

No Celtics fan would ever watch a finals with LA unless the Celts were there.

I will admit to watching Brady for half an hour last night. I just can’t quit him.
