“Social justice” and “gender”

That is leftist for “obey or die”.

True equality would mean that all of them would be making $40K a year and NONE of them would be multimillionaires.

I don’t think equality is what they are really after.

No concerns about diversity in the NBA, they seem pleased with the levels they have now.

What are the odds of preaching EQUALITY to bring back the NFL FANS?

End the faggotry!

Well they did stand. I guess it depends upon what is a ‘dignified posture’.

NBA Rules
...
(1) Each player when introduced, prior to the game, must be uniformly dressed.
(2) Players, coaches and trainers are to stand and line up in a dignified posture
along the sidelines or on the foul line during the playing of the National Anthem.
(3) Coaches and assistant coaches must wear a sport coat or suit coat.
(4) While playing, players must keep their uniform shirts tucked into their pants,
and no T-shirts are allowed.
(5) The only article bearing a commercial ‘logo’ which can be worn by players is their shoes.
end snip

Absolute “equality” requires the crushing of liberty.

So now the NBA wants to relegate itself to irrelevance too?

Protest on the unemployment line then, and see who gives a shit about you shooting yourselves in the foot.

Sounds like the NBA is lining up for its turn in the “do not engage” pit.

The NFL is effed forever. The NBA shall soon follow.

I miss the days when sports and politics were kept separate.
