Don’t worry. The NBA ratings are way down. That’s because their core audience are the ones doing the rioting and looting.

If they _really_ cared, they would just end the season now and have everyone in the league forfeit any further salary payments.

Postpone? How about just disqualify teams that refuse to play and move on? Quit supporting this garbage.

Protest and boycott playing FOREVER.

The New Normal

The players now make the call.

Once the owners made the first concession they lost control...forever.

Remember when Latrell Sprewell punched his coach in the face?

Yes, when the players are more important than the coaches or owners, it’s going to be planet of the apes.

He’s still alive and will, no doubt, be on the dole for the rest of his life.

He appears to be armed with a karambit knife but the PD has not mentioned this.

Negroes seem to be trying to disintegrate those fields in which they have dominated and made the most money. Some sort of masochism seems to be at work here. If white people don’t pay for tickets or watch their broadcasts their sports will become quaint historical memories.
