That wasn’t a shot at you, just me. pointing out that Israel’s “branding” has been so successful that lawmakers aren’t even able to take an opposing stance without broad bipartisan condemnation.

I appreciate that my “I think that 70 years of conflict has resulted in a complicated situation with bad actors on both sides” position on this issue has me dangerously outside the mainstream on these sites but for what it’s worth I don’t think anyone should be punished or reprimanded for supporting BDS even while I…

Honestly that might be the -least- awful argument in support of Israeli apartheid policy that I’ve ever heard

These very same reporters actually work and have always worked in an industry in which you can totally tell someone you’re taking a job, then decide not to take the job before you’ve signed anything, and while it may bum that someone out, they have zero legal recourse to somehow force you to take the job. That’s…

Why does a guy who just had a potentially career ending injury deserve the max? Seems to me like signing him would have been the Knicks style mistake no? 

Thank goodness the Knicks didn’t sign Durant or Irving. Their team is sooo young. By the time Barrett, Knox, Robinson, Trier grow up Durant will be the second coming of Amare Stoudemire. Build around those 4, Smith and now Russell. Build for the long haul, not a 2 year playoff run and your done.

I will very much mocked for this, but signing a guy to a max contract, who won’t play for you for a year and is coming off an Achilles injury, seems dumb.

If the Knicks can get him, they would be insane not to get him.

yeah, guilty is probably not the best word, but they know they’re complicit and that’s why hatemongers who inspired this terrorist like Shapiro, Trump Jr., and Owens are running with the “don’t say his name or his motivation” line.

“Someone’s feeling a little bit guilty this morning.”

Jacinda Ardern has also officially called it terrorism:

This orange monster needs to be fucking impeached right now. Probably dozens of muslims killed by a group of white supremacist terrorists, a first-person shooter video of the killings all over the internet thanks to scruples-devoid Zuckerberg, and the POTUS monster tweets a link to Breitbart, so that his rabid…

From South Carolina to Pittsburgh to New Zealand, from Christian to Jewish to Muslim houses of worship all under fire. From young people under attack in Charlottesville to Utoya and beyond- there’s a growing evil in this world from one same type of demented ethnic-cleansing minds and we have to do more to stop it.

One game won’t make the Porzingis trade sting any less for Knicks fans,

I have to issue this disclaimer on all Knicks blogs: I am a Knicks fan, I hate them, and I’m under no delusion that this stupid scheme to court players who don’t want to play here will actually end well. Everything is bad. Okay.

Well, rumors for some time now have had Durant and Kyrie teaming up in New York.
