“Civilians do not generally wear camouflage” -- written by someone who has never been to a Wal-Mart in the Midwestern/Southern U.S.

I think this relates to our society’s common misconception that because someone is rich that they are also competent. This is absolutely not true and even someone like myself who understands this is confused by how rich people act.

It is pretty damned disturbing that it’s been 17 months that it’s taken them to hold even Sanders’ feet to the fire in terms of asking actual questions. What are they afraid of? If Trump throws them out and packs the room with only his right-wing media outlets’ toadies, the major networks can just stop covering the…

My question is - where have these “hard-hitting” journalists been for the past 17 years? I mean it’s nice to see them standing up to Orange Hitler and his minions but we can all agree that this is as low as hanging fruit gets. As far as I’m concerned they’re doing the bare minimum required by their occupation.

Because it isn’t about the owner. Fans like to pledge fealty to the team and they let themselves forget that teams are just being run in the best interest of the owners, which is to make money. Owners spend a shit ton of money to help fans have that frame of mind, but it’s still pathetic that all those meathead fans…

Basically this.

Maybe because they are fans of the team, so their loyalty to the player is dependent on the player playing for “their” team?

My thought has always been that it’s easier for fans to see themselves in charge of a team than it is to see themselves putting up 25 points per night. As other commenters touched on, there’s probably a racial component (especially with the NBA) and being a fan means wanting to have it both ways in terms of loyalty.…

Owners never have a right to say players need to show loyalty. When a player abandons the team they play for it’s their own teammates and the fans that they betray, not the owners. It’s not always the case but here Toronto is making a trade to attempt to improve the team, obviously it won’t work because apparently…

Ya did good here, son.

AHHH, I see what you did there.

You’d think he’d be happy to move up from the Canadian league to the NBA. SMH. Some people are never satisfied.

I think they can weather the reputation hit by pointing to all the “getting swept in the playoffs” banners hanging from the rafters.

Because just like the players and the owners, the fans are focused on what’s best for themselves.

Sports fans, like all people, are fucking terrible at math, and don’t understand that they’re not one good break away from having the money to own a sports team. Same reason everyone shits on poor people. We all view ourselves as more wealthy than our reality.

No

Does this mean I can get out of the greys from now on?

my apologies

Well ... his name is Mulabah ... I don’t think he would classify himself as white.  I know the racists in VA wouldn’t.
