Spurs coach Gregg Popovich: Don’t kid yourself, ‘we live in a racist country’
Market Watch ^ | February 13, 2018 | Shawn Langlois

A reporter last night asked San Antonio Spurs head coach Gregg Popovich why it’s important for the NBA to celebrate Black History Month.

Popovich isn’t one to pull any punches:

‘I think it’s pretty obvious. The league is made up of a lot of black guys. To honor that and understand it is pretty simplistic. How would you ignore that? But more importantly, we live in a racist country that hasn’t figured it out yet.’

Gregg Popovich, pray tell us, what country, by your standards, is *not* racist?

USAFA gave him a Distinguished Graduate Award a few years ago. We should take it back. But then again, my Alma mater is now hopelessly PC and led by the worthless Gen Silveiria.

Pop-off-a-bitch has been a liberal nutbag for quite some time. I would give one month’s salary to knock the shit out of that SOB.

I’ve been to Canada. Everyone likes Canadians. They say they are the nicest people. Go up there and find out how the folks in Quebec feel about the non-French speaking Canadians and how everyone else feels about the Indians in Newfoundland.

Yup!

Black racists & their White liberal enablers create a hostile and racist society.

Blacks are consistently the most racist of all. BHM is racist. BET is racist. Black Enterprise, Ebony, Jet magazines are all racist. Black Congressional Congress is racist.

I have ancestors who fought and died on both sides of the Civil War. Another ran an underground railroad station in his Church.

Fast forward 150 years. We just elected a big-eared black Marxist president twice, had two black Attorney Generals, and another black Secretary of State in a previous administration. We are a nation that judges people based on the content of their character, not their skin pigmentation.

The coach should STFU and coach his millionaire “slaves”.

Do not care at this point. Worn out their welcome and keep pushing for something more.

A racist country where black NBA players make more than the supposed racists?

ABSOLUTELY!

Glad to see you agree with us, coach.

It's time to end political correctness across the board.

And it's time to kill Affirmative Action, racial preferences, race based set-asides, and to eliminate double standards in all things starting with hiring,
school and college admissions, and the awarding of all government contracts.

That should make the coach happy.

I agree with Coach that it is very important that we celebrate Black History Month.

In particular we need to focus on the history of the Democrat Party from 1860 through Reconstruction and up to the end of the Woodrow Wilson administration.

I feel guilty about being a racist, so I promise to no longer insult the NBA by consuming its product. Only pure SJW’s are allowed to be fans, so I will honor this request. :)
