Mark Cuban on if Mavericks kneel during national anthem: ‘Hopefully, I’d join them’

Professional sports is finished for me.

[DoughtyOne]

Yes, and we agree on the public education thing too.

This why I’ve harped on it for decades.

Over 90% voting for Democrats?

We should demand there be rough parity in the staff of our
universities and education system.

[windsorknot]

Cuban is just another groveling, cowering, “white privileged” Cracker burnishing his “woke cred” for the Brothers and Sisters.

[ROCKLOBSTER]

he hopes the league can adapt and “allow players to do what’s in their heart.”

What's in their heart?

You mean like beating up and murdering their girlfriends and wives, and each other. Hopefully a lot of them are suicidal, and feel like also taking out their fellow kneelers.

(drugged up psychos)

[HighSierra5]

Yeah. And it’d be fun to watch.

[shelterguy]

I like to watch the high school tournaments for hockey and basketball. Beyond that I don’t really follow or care about it.

I got free tickets to a Timberwolves game about 10 years ago. BORING.

[ActresponsiblyinVA]

Some let me know what happens. I will not be watching the game or the advertisers.

NBA has been off my TV for a couple of years. I had slid back to NFL when they appeared to get back to respect and football but I just canceled Sunday Ticket and I won’t be back. Do what you want before or after the Anthem but this old Vet won’t stand for during. Plenty of other things to do on a Sunday.

Good for you and thank you for your service.

I wouldn't DREAM of kneeling or sitting for the anthem. I've heard it 1000 times but I ALWAYS get snerfy at the last lines:

And the rocket's red glare, the bomb bursting in air,
Gave proof through the night that our flag was still there,
O say does that star-spangled banner yet wave
O'er the land of the free and the home of the brave?

Lol. I'm snerfing and sniffing NOW as I write.
I lived in another country for two years when I was in my mid-twenties. And my husband and I worked in the Middle East for five years...so I KNOW what a wonderful country this is.
How could that a-hole Kaepernick NOT stand for our country's anthem? I wonder what HIS life would have been like if his ancestors had NOT been sold by OTHER African tribes and ended up in the greatest place since the Roman Empire.

Mark it don’t matter if you bow down and kiss every maverick’s butt live on the tube...SPORTS IS FINISHED...D.E.A.D!! Even my husband who is a huge football and basketball fan is SOOOOOOOO DONE with sports! We lived without sports for three months and counting AND DIDNT MISS IT ONE IOTA, ZILCH!! And we survived!!

[mulligan]

Another slave.

[DoughtyOne]

Ah I don’t want to see that done to anyone, but I sure do
identify with your thoughts.

Zucherberg (sp?) is the guy that needs some educating.

Bill Gates is another.

[RummyChick]

I am really torn on this

part of me wants the sports seasons to start to get this in the fore front before election

part of me wants them cancelled so I dont have to watch and hear about all the pandering that is going to infuriate me

but all of me wants Colin K to get a contract and be put front and center to crash and burn and show what a has been he is

[traderrob6]

“Professional sports is finished for me.”

Ice hockey is about it for me anymore.

[manc]

agreed

[Boomer]

Kneeling other than for religious reasons is subjugation.

It implies one is not a citizen but rather an owned subject.

[eyeamok]

What are the Mavericks??

[bigbob]

I pay zero attention to “sports”. I do outdoor activities by myself, no cheering squad, no fans, no kneeling except in my canoe.

[goodnesswins]

Fishing? Maybe they’ll leave fishing alone

[willyd]

kneeling is one thing, but will Mark Cuban hand over 14% of his company to POC in order to right his past sins?

[Quentin Quarantino]

And this goofy looking prick thinks he wants and wishes to run for President.

Dhimmi Alert.
