In stark contrast, whenever a White guy does something reprehensible, it's always, "B-b-b-b-but he was artistic/friendly/trimmed the hedges every Sunday/mistreated!"

Jesus Christ, let it go. Stop trying to turn this incidence of ugly anti-minority racism into yet another whinefest about how White guys have it tough.

Gay privilege!!! When will people start thinking about straight people?!

There are many "soft racists" who may not be cross-burning fanatics, but are still quite secretly pleased with the idea that these acts of police violence may force Blacks and Latinos to be much more deferential and obsequious to racist cops that put them in their place.

It's because "most people" figure that they won't be the victims of the militarized police. They're in favor of this because they think the police is protecting US from THEM.

Right on. Hollywood is mostly about money, but the White men who run Hollywood have a huge vested interest in making sure that White men remain the masculine ideal in America (and the rest of the world).

Bosh opted to stay with Heat so Lakers get some form of indirect revenge on the Rockets (who are now truly screwed with the Chandler Parsons situation).

Mr. Arnold will always be missed.

All proceeds from jersey sales get evenly distributed among the teams.

Yo White people, it's not "satire" if the extreme language that you're using is actually pretty mundane common speech in a lot of parts of society.

For most fans, the only thing that should matter to them is the cap hit, which is why Lin's critics in the past two years rightfully classified him as an $8 million player.

Still way more accepted and celebrated than other pairings. Just look at cultural works and real-life. It's a constantly promoted pairing.

White Guy-Asian Woman relationships are pretty much the most tolerated and accepted of all interracial relationships.

It's not just about minutes but about the role that you're told to play. It's no coincidence that Lin's best games as a Rocket—games in which he put up numbers that were reminiscent of Linsanity—were when either Harden was out or played less of a ball-dominating role.

Players are given millions (and not even including endorsements) for a few good games at the college level. So if a guy does it at the superior NBA level and sets records while he's at it, what's the big moralistic outrage about a team investing in that?

Lin has proven to be a solid NBA player who's a bit overpaid (probably warrants around a $5-6 million). Hardly a flash in a pan.

Lin's salary cap hit is only $8 million. It's disingenuous to say that he's costing the Rockets $15 million now because in the first two years of his deal, he was only making $5 million with a cap hit of $8 million, but NOBODY was saying that he was a pretty good deal at $5 million. Instead, the common criticism was…

Yes, but the contradiction is that many of these bro-ey young men probably don't want to live a life of sexual abstention. Yet in a world with limited abortion access, the consequences of premarital sex will be much greater. So are they willing to either abstain from sex or always be there to help the mother raise the…

It's always a bit perplexing to think that a bunch of young males who think they are entitled to rampant sex can also hold very stringent views on abortion and maybe even contraception.

Generally speaking, as a mid-tier team, you always want the top dog in your group to beat your rivals.
