You mean since he got in China? I thought he was saying it was no big deal just a few days ago. I bet the Chinese loved that smack talk.

The one positive out of all this is that we’ve finally found out what it takes to get LaVar Ball to shut up.

Keep the Dindus for awhile. Maybe they’ll appreciate the USA when they come home.

Exactly. I think that they now are beginning to think this is more serious than they first thought. I noticed that President Trump has not said a word. Hehehehe

There's probably more video surveillance in China than there is in the US.

The Tennessee State University marching band went to Japan several years ago. Shop keepers there routinely display their wares outside their shops for passersby to see. A bunch of band members took this as an opportunity to shoplift several thousand dollars worth of electronic merchandise. The entire band was detained on the runway while their persons and luggage was searched for the stolen items. After the items were recovered, TSU was told never to come back.

TSU is a traditionally black university.

If John Wooden were alive he would just kick them off the team and leave them their fate in China.

Lucky for the perps the Chinese don’t cut off hands for stealing.

Of course when the subject of canes get mentioned out the ‘brothas’ will probably think they are talking about the Miami team.

Apparently ‘they’ no longer give the lectures on how to ‘behave’ when visiting far away places with strange sounding names.

At least these lads will get schooled in the true meaning of being ‘oppressed’ and how they didn’t really have it all that bad here.

Maybe D Rodman and BO will go to their rescue.

Years ago one J Jackson would have ‘worked something out’ or went through the motions.

Gee, the NCAA dropped North Carolina from tournaments because they ‘opposed’ boys in the girls room.

Think China will have a ban placed on them.

Think China really GAF if another game is played there?

Maybe the NAACP will go to China and shake them down like they do here in the US. That’ll teach them.
