This is one pro sport that fans should really stop supporting.

No "TRUMP 2020"?
My preference is keep politics out of sports. If an athlete wants to use his or her voice, do it on their time. I say the same about entertainers. People don't come in my business and get lectured on politics. Why am I subjected to their politics when I am paying to see a sports event?Last edited by Doc; 07-05-2020 at 01:41 PM.

Waiting for the first slogan ("Free Hong Kong," "End Uighur Slavery") to be suppressed because it doesn't pass the NBA's purity test.

Just like NA$CAR, the NBA is purposely stepping in it.....

Good move imo. Agree with it or not, this still made it more a non issue right out of the gate.

Huge problem and the younger adults believe it’s truly amazing the brain washing that is currently happening by the BLM, one day this youth will wake up and the myth will be a reality and shock their worlds totally!

Politics and business (which sports is) should not mix. Make it worse by only allowing one sided speech.

There is no "side' here. And no matter what you might (apparently) think, I am not being political on the matter at all.
My only point was that..(I personally believe)..there would be more made of a handful of players going against the rules and wearing BLM on their jersey, than there would be if it is allowed.
And I believe it is most assuredly the deciding factor in such a decision.
The former would be a story that lingers for years like the Kaepernick thing and far out shines the games and enflames the current situation.
While no such restriction at this time wont be much of a story at all.
I think we can safely assume it was the right move as a business decision.Last edited by kingcat; 07-06-2020 at 08:57 PM.

Too much can go wrong with a slogan. America is earning your respect.

FreeHongKong is not allowed on an official NBA jersey from what I read. Didnt try it myself. I’d buy one in the parking lot tho.
