Sacramento Kings play-by-play announcer Grant Napear was placed on administrative leave by his radio station Monday after tweeting All Lives Matter, a controversial phrase associated with belittling the Black Lives Matter movement.
All Lives Matter
Every Single One! the 60-year-old Napear tweeted Sunday after former Kings star Demarcus Cousins asked the KHTK radio host for his view on the Black Lives Matter movement.

Yeah, but it makes the people saying feel so good about themselves, especially if they're white. These idiots don't know how much it actually hurts their cause to spew this crap.
Ask your “friends” if they have ever been robbed—and if they liked it.
_Nobody_ likes to be robbed.
_Nobody_.
I’m part Pottawatomi...I’m sure I matter.
Smells a lot like communism via the social pressure track.
He doesn’t have enough white guilt - needs re-education
Now it’s racist not to be racist. I get it.
Reminds me of when I used to listen to AM radio and during the business news there was a “Womens’ Minute.” Of course there was. Anyway a woman in the business world said that “dying was sexist” because since men usually pass away before their wives, the elderly women were unprepared for the finances of aging based on discrimination of women in the workplace. Yup, you die early and you are a sexist.
No one would believe it.
10 years ago, Obama would have been in the White House for over a year. I might have believed it at that time.
Agree. But they have been robbed of their beliefs in right and wrong. They find it way too easy to damn all Whites with whatever the Left says is truth. They would damn Napear too, if they were aware of his situation. I have always believed that you should punish the ONE PERSON for their criminality, not a whole Race. And many more are siding with Kaepernick these days, damning the whole country, painting with a very broad racism brush. And dont try to point out the discrepancies in their beliefs....As then you are as bad as the cop in Minnesota.
The NBA is dead. No games this year. They’ll play hockey and football - screw basketball.
the question to be asked of these people is why don’t all lives mater - do some lives matter more than others, and if so who’s - and why?
Look at various people on the streets, airports, wherever we congregate (or used to) And overwhelmingly white people — mostly men — will wear sports jerseys with the names of their favorite team’s superstar or another athlete. You will see whites wearing the names of blacks, Latinos, and whites. Then look at those jerseys worn by blacks, especially the young male. You will almost never see a black male wearing the name of a white player. Almost never.
Just last week, I saw a black male on TV say about a white NBA player of the past “That white boy could play.” OK, one could say that was a compliment but imagine if a white person said “That black boy could skate (about a hockey player) or play...” The uproar would lead to an apology or firing. There are double standards that have been festering for years and decades. Pop culture is the face of this garbage. White fans praise black athletes incessantly, but how often do blacks, especially young males, revere whites or white men in the pop/sports world?!
I am so done with the NBA.
A new lawyer who passed the bar last week could win him a few million. That was stupid upon stupid on the NBA.
You matter as much as I do.
Ojibwa, Nottawa.
And lily-white
So, here is the new rule: If someone asks your opinion you are only allowed to voice it AFTER you have verified the appropriate PC answer. If your opinion varies from that, you either must mouth the acceptable answer....or cut to a commercial.
Got it.
“...imagine if a white person said That black boy could skate (about a hockey player)”
Imagine a Presidential Nominee saying that a black man was “clean.”
Oh wait...we don’t have to imagine it. It happened.
If All Lives Matter is incorrect, will they kindly clarify which lives do not matter?
A good question for the black lives matter people is why don’t all of the black lives matter?
Those people only talk about relatively rare cases of black men being killed by whites, or police. They have nothing to say about the 93% of black murder victims who were killed by other blacks.
And how about the fact that a disproportionate number of black victims are victim of black gang violence? The black youth gangs are a terrible plague Upon Our cities and yet the black lives matter organization has nothing to say about them.
Brouzo Nican!!!
