You realize that you are in violation of your contracts and you don’t get paid, right? And you may void your contracts and never get paid, no endorsement either...
Great idea.

The thug league won’t play because of a phantom menace that prevented none of these guys from becoming millionaires and more. And most of them have left their old neighborhoods for greener pastures and upscale homes. What nonsensical drivel. Not one of them can give an example of this “systemic” nonsense.

Kyrie Irving, a REAL flat earther (look it up!)...geez.

While I’m glad they won it all in 2016, I’m happy that he and LeAsshat are no longer playing in Cleveland.

I think it is real. Talk about cutting your nose off to spite your face.
