Nike is in it up to its neck as well.

The 10 Billion is for starters. Nike has a lot more to lose as this evolves.

Ain’t ‘Red’ Justice grand?

The Leftist hate that. Haha!

NBA people in general, but ESPECIALLY the black players, should be asked whether, if Tank Man from Tiananmen Square had been black instead of Chinese, and if the tank had been driven by Bull Conner rather than painted with PLA insignia, their reactions would be any different.

For NBA players to turn their backs on freedom marchers is astonishing.

The Olympics needs to strip down its contests. There’s so much ridiculous stuff going on during the Olympics it’s hard to keep up and they don’t broadcast most of it. I think the original intent in Olympic sports was track and field and other of military related type of events such as archery and even boxing and other martial arts. But basketball, volleyball, water polo, all this other stuff is just frivolous BS.

I also think that now the cats out of the bag and everybody knows that it was Nazi Germany who invented and ushered in the Glorious opening ceremonies, perhaps it is time to negate all that glorious opening ceremony and just have the march of the athletes and perhaps some sort of invocation to the spirit of competition.

A valid question, soon to be irrelevant?

The one-world crowd probably hates the notion of national teams - Chinese or American. They'd rather it was corporate sponsors, say Nike vs. Adidas.

Thought the same thing.

But let us NOT forget that the "almighty dollar" quite often overshadows doing the prudent thing..

"For the love of money is the root of all kinds of evil. By craving it, some have wandered away from the faith and pierced themselves with many sorrows." - 1 Timothy 6:10

When Herschel played for the Eagles, the running joke was “Herschel in the backfield, Herschel for the down, Herschel selling hotdogs in the stands...” There was nothing Mr. Walker would not and could not do for his team.

That sounds like the James Cann movie Rollerball.
