Never happen tho... you can have a “Black Student Union”, but you cannot have a “White Student Union”

Cannot have “White boys basketball”

Where's the "Black" basketball league? The NBA is predominated by black players because there are more good black players than there are good white players out there right now. But they aren't keeping the Steve Nashs and the Dirk Nowitzkis or even the Yao Mings out.

This all-white league is just racist nonsense.

“Basketball without traveling, palming the ball, tattoos, trash-talking, and hanging on the rim. Maybe some better sportsmanship.”

And fewer shootings, stabbings or arrests too.

separate but equal?

“kinda stupid, but it makes a point”

How stupid is Black Entertainment Television? Or the United Negro College Fund? How about La Raza?

Does anyone have a list of was non-white, racist groups, enterprises, clubs, etc. so we can have an idea of how many people think it’s okay to be racist as long as you aren’t Caucasian?

BTW, where is that black boy always yelling, “That’s racist!” I was sure I would see him pop up on this thread!

[max americana]

hmm, there’s only a few leagues I know of in the L.A. area. I have Filipino friends who invite me all the time, especially after a Pacquiao fight.

I played in a Samoan league down in Oceanside with other family members. We were all a bunch of widebodies who liked to rebound (not much scoring - LOL). Good postgame food (yum)

[uscabjd]

Aren’t they a bit over the hill? BOB COUSY? JOHN HAVLICEK?

Still a dumb idea.

NBA=National Black Association

[Windflier]

...whiteys from South Africa?

I've known a few who have become naturalized US citizens. If you think about it, they're the real African-Americans.

Dunks will be like abortions: safe legal and rare.

[John D]

Without blacks, who will play?

[Beowulf9]

“How stupid is Black Entertainment Television? Or the United Negro College Fund? How about La Raza?”

or Black History Month. Imagine if we made a White History month?

Or why not go for the big guns, the NAACP. and isn’t it racist to call them ‘colored’?

[trumandogz]

“It would be the equivalent of the Negro Leagues in baseball.”

No.

Many of those guys in the Negro Leagues could have played in the Majors if they were not prohibited from the Majors.

The white guys in this League do not have the skills to play in the NBA, the Development League, Europe or in some low rent Mid West minor league.

Basketball without traveling, palming the ball, tattoos, trash-talking, and hanging on the rim. Maybe some better sportsmanship.

I can't remember how many years it has been since they were required to actually dribble the ball

Without the palming Iverson could never do his crossover move

[Frantzie]

Sort of like someone in golf who throws clubs, swears, is a primma donna and a serial adulterer. Plus he got an as* whipping from Phil through much of 2009.

[Frantzie]

Affirmative action racism. Someday you may encounter it.

The “wise Latina” on the Supreme Court supports it.

[clee1]

Oh, for the Love of Christ!

"The NBA is predominated by black players because there are more good black players than there are good white players out there right now."

But shouldn't there be a quota for the number of white minorities the NBA must hire; even if they aren't as good? Even if it displaces more deserving black athletes? For the sake of "diversity"?

[The_Reader_David]

What point would that be? I am missing it.

You don't? It's a parody of affirmative action. In professional basketball whites are "underrepresented".
