I think that take is a little too simplistic and cynical.

KD is a tremendously gifted basketball player who happens to be the embodiment of all millennial stereotypes: can’t handle criticism, wants the easy road to success, doesn’t eat at Applebee’s, etc.
Wait, you’re skimming through the “Weekly Best-Of Jamboroo” and you choose to look at the coach chopping blocks instead of Jim Tomsula’s life hack? You really need to reconsider your choices here.
Came here to say the same thing (without the humorous Pop reference). The “lighten up the schedule a little bit” hot take is either ill informed or just weak, considering the NBA just did exactly that.
Being a shithead teenager, I thought it would be fun to go deeper than anyone else in the beach and jump through large waves and see what happens. The joys of youth, when you aren’t overly concerned about the outcome of your actions.
Bring the hatin’ or GTFO
As a Steelers fan, I can say with confidence that all hatred that is generated due to our players (both former and current), our coaching staff, our fanbase, our food, our culture, our attitude, and our towel-waving bullshit is completely justified.
Oh I’m always of the belief that most of what goes on behind the scenes with teams is either never known to the public or is not reported on its entirety. This is no different.
Another theory I’ll float out there: Kapernick has been contacted by certain teams, and he either isn’t interested in playing for them or his salary demands are too high.
The marketplace doesn’t define ethics so much as reflects it. Walmart is the largest retailer on earth and treats employees like crap.
Well nice of you to stereotype there, and I’ll just leave it at I don’t agree with that sentiment. And the owner of the Indians agrees with me. He would make the change if there was a monetary windfall resulting from a change.
FYI, the Wizards routinely rank in the bottom half of NBA franchise values despite being the #7 DMA in the country. One of the reasons is their weak identity in the market from their change to the Wizards and their ongoing change in logos.
Ehh the issue is more complicated than being reduced to a snarky one-liner. I personally agree that the logo is offensive and would personally like to see it changed, but I’m not sure the majority feels this way. And believe it or not, a billionaire owner of a team didn’t get to where he is in life because he has a…
Of course there will be fans who will give up rooting for their team if it changes the very identity they’ve loved. Or will simply become apathetic.
I see that “win-win” argument all the time, as though rebrands are really easy and everyone would be completely on-board with forgoing a brand they’ve been emotionally connected to since their childhood.
Titans vs. Saints
I was wondering why “Kentavius Cantrell Pope” looked familiar but seemed a little off...I need to brush up on my legislative knowledge.
To Ben fair, they are all Single-A players making less than minimum wage. This isn’t something to get fined over.
Oh yeah, it would be extremely unusual for a good white basketball player to be revered in Boston. No way those fans would fawn over a white athlete in that market, especially one who excels in an area typically dominated by black athletes. I’m sure companies will be hesitant to have a good looking, squeaky clean,…
My take is to keep the team cap but remove individual caps. That would allow Utah to pay the “no one wants to live here” tax and offer more than the Celtics probably would. Right now they have no substantial advantage because Hayward didn’t make All NBA.
