and SF/LA and SEA/SD

Amen!

It’s the difference between rich people using their privilege for good (NBA boycott) versus using their privilege for well, nothing (JayZ, Kanye). At this point, Dolly Parton has more BLM cred than JayZ does.

Don’t forget about JayZ who said that “we’re way past kneeling. I think everyone knows what the issue is.” He said this while yucking it up with Goodell. I will continue to scream from the rafters, JayZ owes Kaepernick an apology. Period. Watch how flippant he is about Kaep and the movement in this video:

No team should play tonight.

Quit responding to the trolls, dismiss them.

The Brewers-Reds game has also been postponed. 

Particularly after the Kenosha cops treated armed white thugs, one 17 yo that would go on to murder 2 people and attempt to murder a 3rd, like bros. And then their chief blamed the victims in a contorted press conference. The Bucks decision is not only the right thing, it’s the necessary thing. As the Blake family…

*Slow sarcastic applause*

The ones who say “What does it accomplish?” are either trying to discourage people from trying to make change, or have lost their spirit. Either way, every effort, small and large, adds up.

The brewers won’t be playing tonight either

That’s right. Everything you said is right. Fuck the NFL.

I don’t think anybody could honestly argue it was a useless gesture, especially with the RNC insisting every night on TV that racism isn’t a problem in America. This is a whole bunch of influential people, mostly black people, telling Nikki Haley she’s full of shit.

Some of the brewers players supported the bucks boycott/strike so I wonder if they will boycott as well.

And absolute respect. They know how much people are thirsty for sports at this very moment. This takes balls. Bravo.

Doncha hate it when athletes can’t “stick to sports”?

I’m pretty impressed with how much better the NBA handles players protests, and BLM support, than the NFL. I mean, can you imagine if instead of fucking Kaepernick’s shit up, the NFL had a competent commissioner who just said “We support his right to protest in whatever manner he feels comfortable and appropriate”?? I…

The NBA has responded by postponing Bucks/Magic, Rockets/Thunder, and Blazers/Lakers.
