I haven’t watched an NBA championship since the Pacers and Reggie Miller era. Home team dontchaknow.

Have no desire to even watch a game anymore. Same with the N Fools L.

They don’t play they don’t get paid. Sounds good to me!

No longer follow pro sports. The millionaire players need to look for another way to make money. Advocating for violence is a losing proposition.

Basketball just clutters up my limited TV viewing. Who wants to watch a load of spoiled brats running around in gangster shorts? I hope they boycott and keep on boycotting.

This is stupid. The NHL is going to commit league suicide just like the NBA already has, like the MLB is trying to, and like the NFL will probably begin to do soon.

Jacob Blake is the wrong "victim" on which to base this ridiculous mass virtue-signaling.

Jacob Blake is a violent felon who had a warrant out for his arrest, was acting in defiance of a protective order, was armed with a knife, and had already tussled with the police who were trying to apprehend him. The taser they had already used on him had proven ineffective. And he was entering his car, the reason for which the officers on the scene could only guess (he could easily have been trying to retrieve a gun, something he had a history of possessing).

In everything I've ever heard or read about police training on the justifiable use of force, not only was shooting Blake under these circumstances reasonable, but failing to do so would have been dangerously irresponsible.

This is the wrong "victim."

The Kenosha riots are based on a false narrative, inflamed by a Leftist press and a social justice industry, including the Democrat party, that benefits from the violence.
