Naggerball? Nothing but squeaks and tweets. Boring!
Professional sports is a symptom of a sick society.A society where people watch rather than do is headed for trouble.
I mean if you can't DUNK a ball and you are the only player near the rim and you are getting Millions a year...but you are showing off and you miss the dunk...I don't need it...
My Lightning are opening training camp this year and Steven Stamkos is back healthy...and my Red Sox are inthe playoffs...
This is easy to boycott for me.
What will kill the sports is when the dueling attention seeking gets in the way of anything, like when Black Lives Matter stopped a homosexual parade in Canada.
When the game becomes Black Lives Matter vs Illegal Immigrants or BLM vs Transactivsts or BLM vs Environmentalists ... people will stop watching the sports.

Maybe they could start some real social change by transforming the cultural descriptive from ‘baby daddy’ to ‘father’.
First of all, that team has a real issue if its members are going around shooting unarmed people.
Secondly, it is not NBA teams or their members who have any obligation to effect social change. They are basketball players. Their job is to entertain. Or, in the words of Laura Ingraham, "Shut up and sing!"
