Get Woke, Go Broke. It should be as simple as that.

I wonder how long it will take for Corporate America to finally get that sunk in.

Communism killed American sports; if it rises again there will be called “patriot” leagues to distinquish them from the old dead ones.

Names. We want names of those that watched. LOL! SAF wasn’t me. Though I did see it on the screens at the casino on Friday. Cardboard fans in a few seats. Reeeeediculous.

It’s always a grab bag of reasons but never the reason that everyone is talking about why they’re not watching.

I like the idea of a Patriot League. Although not a sports fan I’d watch just to support.

And “that” expectation had already taken into account of “NBA TV Ratings Plummet By Double Digits” during the last season.

But Adam Silver and league owners won’t/can’t rein in the likes of LeBron James and the rabid coach, also of course they continue to kneel in front of their ChiCom master.

Bingo! These leagues think they are the sport. And they are not.

The NBA’s commercials said it was coming back to fight injustice. Maybe fans just prefer to see these millionaire ball players simply throw the ball through the hoop and earn their millions without the virtue-signalling stunts.

You DO KNOW that LeBron does have a high school diploma? He is the Chinese Ambassador to the US of NBA, brought to you by Nike and all of their slave labor.

I didn’t know it returned. Oh well, I had to count the blades of grass in my lawn that day anyway.

Make sure you count them both before you cut them, and after you cut them, so that you can be sure you got all of them.
