The Sacramento Kings appear to have made a statement by firing an announcer who said, “all lives matter,” only to replace him by hiring someone who claimed that Donald Trump is a “white supremacist terrorist.”
Back in June, Kings announcer Grant Napear was pressured to resign from his 30-year broadcasting job after stirring vitriol from the left because he said that “all lives matter.” Napear, who had been with the team since 1988, later explained that he was not aware that “all lives matter” was somehow considered racist.
Napear also lost his job on KHTK radio over the incident.

Let’s see how well that works for them.
NBA are scum.

We have a huge problem with licensed broadcasters & telecom playing unconstitutional, political favoritism.
But kinda difficult to pursue when the rape victim is reluctant to take a stand.
Imagine if he had said that basketball was invented by a white guy.
During the 80’s and 90’s, I was a huge Lakers fan, and an NBA fan. Whenever I traveled for business and I was in a town that had a team, I would always make it a point to go to a game, no matter who was playing. I haven’t been to a game since Kobe ran Shaq out of town. And because of LaBaron, I won’t ever go again. Screw ‘em.
More fuel for our fire keep up the boycott they will all be back to playing b ball in thier urban neighborhood playgrounds for beer and joints
Having a hard time here giving a crap, really.
Hell, I don’t watch the NBA in the first place....
Shouldn’t they be more concerned about assuming the title of an anti-democratic, absolutist monarch as their team name?
All professional sports, and college sports as well, must die.
You know what makes me sad?
I can't boycott the NFL, the NBA, the PGA, or MLB for their stupid political posturing.
Because, I never did have any interest in watching grown men chase a ball.
I read headline like this and thank the Good Lord I am old. I’m afraid we’re headed into some dark, dark times. Y’all have fun.
