...that’s a strangely specific thing to always have said.

Why do people watch this sport again?
I think this defense is broadly right—but it still amounts to LeBron saying that the sensitivities of one of the world’s most brutal and repressive regimes should set boundaries on what people in the NBA say in public. Which is fuckin’ gross!
This. Lebron fancies himself the voice of the voiceless, at least until it affects his paycheck. Fake-ass sellout doesn’t have a fraction of the strength of character that Kaepernick has. Fuck Lebron, and fuck the NBA.
A good time to remember that Colin Kaepernick gave up his job and all the considerable perks that come with it to stand up against injustice, while LeBron James, whose legacy and bank account are both more secure, is unwilling to risk even a small fraction of future earnings to speak on one of the few world issues…
I think the most charitable defense possible of this statement is players understand that Morey’s tweet might end up dramatically slashing career earnings for a good chunk of the league. NBA players generally only get to hit the free market once or mayyybe twice, and lot of random players will miss out on their one…
I understand the players are caught between a rock and a hard place. But this has to be one of the most craven capitulations to money I have ever seen by a major athlete. Should have kept quiet. His rationale is bullshit.
This is just fucking gross. Thats really all I can say about it.
And when he went to practice the next day, a small sign hung in the practice facility that read simply: Zach Brown Banned.
I mean, LA clearly cares about NFL football. Just not necessarily about Chargers football (or the Rams necessarily either, judging from all the red at yesterdays game). But the owners don’t care who the people sitting in the stands cheer for. They paid for tickets, parking, probably a lot of beer and stuff, and their…
“pay to build us a new stadium or we’re moving to LA.”
The Pats-Giants play absolutely involved a restriction. Jones grabbed Tate’s right arm before the ball got there and was still holding it when the ball arrived. If that’s not “egregiously wrong,” nothing is.
Well...I guess SOME PEOPLE get to make edits after 15 minutes. Talk about privilege.
Well, it works if you consider small ball getting as few hits and runs as possible.
This is likely the biggest mistake I’ve ever made on Kinja, but god help me, here I go.
It’s such a strange non sequitur, though. To kind of illustrate the point here’s some recent Deadspin articles with the same joke inserted in the same bizarre manner:
It's your bad? So change the headline, maybe? "That's my bad" is meaningless. And it doesn't matter whether the headline landed or not, what matters is that it did not adequately represent the article. I came here expecting a contrarian take on the subject and came away disappointed.
Petty beef has the most flavor.
Bosa is a typical Ohio numbnut mouth breather. Him and his brother are so retarded they might have been born with CTE.
Not that I’ve ever played sports that earned myself or anyone else money, but I have played sports. And I really don’t think that, once you’re on the field you’re thinking about the economics.
