After all, we know better than the average person the stains left in the history of sports, because of such acts. Also Americas image has been tarnished for years now, very few things that happen there seem normal. But Americans still think their way is the only right way and everyone else should listen to them Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grassmarket 2,749 Posted August 27, 2020 #92 Share Posted August 27, 2020 I suppose the good thing is that it’ll open the NBA up to a lot of new players. Up until now very tall young guys have had a monopoly of the best jobs in the Sport. However, now that it’s all about boycotts and not about playing basketball anyone - short, fat, middle-aged, one-legged - will be able to become a pro basketball boycotter. So the whole sport becomes a lot more equal. Monzanator 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dcro 10,179 Posted August 27, 2020 #93 Share Posted August 27, 2020 Indeed, I always felt basketball was one of the most "racist" sports. I mean, Indonesia may have a massive population, but with an average height of 163 cm, they will always stand in a serious disadvantage (no pun intended). #banbestmen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Critics will attack LeBron James no matter what. thepharoah 1 “Sport has the power to change the world. It has the power to inspire.
