So is the black caucus but they’re celebrated for their lack of diversity.

Silly idea.

All they have to do is argue for racial quotas and affirmative action.

That would ensure the NFL,NBA,etc, have the direct proportion of players according to race.

Meaning of course the NBA and NFL wouldn`t be 80% black anymore :-)

Hollywood put out a feature film and paid millions to advertise it, the title? White Men Can't Jump.

Seems some in the media persist in pushing stereotypes.

Made me glad to see the Houston Rockets beat the NY Nicks in the championship YEARS ago (I was there and yes I spotted Spike Lee and Bob Costas yucking it up before the game began).

After living through the affirmative action crap my whole life, I like the “finger in your eye” aspect of it.

Stupid maybe, let the free market decide.

No more racist than all of the black and Latino special interest groups such as the black caucus.

This whole article is a fraud, a hoax. This so-called Basketball Association doesn’t even have a web site.

This is an April Fools prank.

Sign me up.

They can have BET, Black History Month, Brown Pride, etc.; why can’t I have a basketball league?
