As a matter of fact, some NFL c00ns have already shown their asses about Kirk's death, and we've really got cats in here thinking some throwaway comment by the NBA commisioner about the viewing habits of the league's fanbase is some gotcha moment.

He should have pivoted and mentioned the major increase in games on terrestrial TV instead of the broke boys comment.

He did, but shyt like that doesn’t go viral. Everyone in this thread got sucked in by sensationalism. There’ll be more free-to-air games this season than in the last two decades, but let TheColi tell it that Silver /NBA are trying to kill the league.
this is the equalivent of a member of the burgeoning Nazi party being honored
check out The Jewish Enemy by Jeffery Herf. That comparsion is no exaggeration. The
Nazis had to socially build and normalize themselves to become the Nazi party as history remembers. The extreme right is in an advanced stage of that same process
I can honestly see the NBA being attacked and destroyed as an institution in the near future. Not because it's some progressive formation or some base of Black power... its nowhere near neither. But it has the superficial image of such and to take that out would be invaluable political fodder

We've already seen the Right use the NBA as target practice, from BLM to ratings talk.
Which is why it's painful to see posters on this board constantly go out of their way to drag the league down at every turn. That doesn't mean the NBA should be immune from criticism, but folks revel in demeaning the league for some warped reasoning which stems from trying to protect the past. They don't even realize they're doing the dirty work for all these crackas who hope a predominately-Black league is destroyed.
Keep in mind, these confused ass negroes are the same ones running around on this board cosplaying as being pro-Black.

Y'all worried about some throwaway comment about the product, meanwhile, the NFL out here honoring a racist demon.Tried to tell these TMZball stans
One is not like the other.

It's crazy that US networks keep paying out the ass for the TV rights for sports leagues, especially the NBA.
The NBA also makes a crazy amount from overseas TV rights which other US leagues can't come close to.

Dreams Are Colder Than Death...
Both can get fukked. I just like how y’all think the owners of y’all favorite teams are some progressive just because they put a slogan on the court, above the fray types when these mf’s donate to the very causes and politicians that bring harm to people that look like the players and the players don’t say a damn thing,..but player empowerment thoY'all worried about some throwaway comment about the product, meanwhile, the NFL out here honoring a racist demon.

Does the league pay you in real green backs or with a free access code to league pass cause you grab your tutu and Pom poms and run into every thread defending these muthafukkas like Stephen?

Then why do you have only smoke for the NBA?
I never see you saying shyt about the NFL, particularly when they’re the bigger aggressor when it comes to things that actually matter. Not some dumb shyt about TV ratings and the 3-pt shot. Why are you always up in these threads talking about TMZball stans but don't ever refer to NFL fans as CTEball stans or KKKball stans?
You say both can get fukked but like BothSiders on this board, you only choose to expend your energy on shytting on one product.
It's less defending and more pointing out hypocrisy and revisionism.
I don't pretend the NBA is perfect. It's not. It never has been. So when cats talk about the good ole days when the NBA was a real-man sport, played the right way, I remind y'all that it wasn't. People and players shytted on it back in the day, in real time, despite whatever revisionism y'all wanna use to paint over reality.
To a greater and more relevant point - the NBA is seen (if only through the lens of) as a Black league, so when y'all shyt on it and use talking points that these crackas do, you're only doing the dirty work of the Right. Forgive me for not participating in that; forgive me for calling that shyt out when I see it. Just like anything, I have no issue with anyone critiquing something from a honest, objective place, but when it comes to the NBA, it seems this board is incapable of doing that.

Cause y’all are idiots. Just that simple for me. Y’all pretend like the NBA is on equal footing with football when it isn’t. And when that’s pointed out, y’all want to talk about globally. You obviously didn’t check the weekly NFL threads the past two seasons. I openly shytted on bad QB play, bad coaches, terrible games, etc. Me personally, I lump all football together. I am more CFB than NFL if push comes to shove. The product is just more unpredictable, more fan passion, and anything can happen. NFL rarely has games that shock you and the experience in stadiums lacks for my taste. But CTEball vs TMZball, CTEball all the way.
Then to add on, NBA discourse is stupid in it itself. Nowhere in NFL discussion would someone say Jason Kelce would lock Reggie White down in their primes or have some scrub equivalent to JJ Reddikk shytting on dikk Butkus’ era or the Steel Curtain

Equal footing in what respect? I thought you said fukk both?
Football has always been king in this country (after it took over from baseball). Nobody has argued otherwise. I still fail to comprehend how the NBA's global impact is irrelevant here? Has that somehow been falsified? Is that not at all true? What are you trying to argue, exactly?
That's entirely different from shytting on the NFL (and its fans), as a whole. You clearly only have smoke for one product more than the other.
You're not the only one, but I regularly see you in anti-NBA threads shytting on it, cracking jokes, but rarely do I see you in NFL threads of the same nature. Have you spoken about NFL teams/players choosing to honor Charlie Kirk, or do you just like keeping that energy for the NBA when viral soundbites are taken out of context about topics that have little-to-no bearing on real life?
You're being disingenious with this.
The NBA most definitely has problems with its discourse, but that stems from players from the past shytting on today's players. Not the other way around. It's the constant disrespect from former players and stuck-in-the-past fans alike which is the issue. You'll get no arguments from me over how asinine the discourse is, but at the same time, let's not pretend like the very nature of football discourse isn't lathered in White supremacy. The entire existence of the sport is built off how America sees itself. Which is why it's weird to me to see how y'all gloss over that but shyt on the NBA for far less egregious things.
Like is JJ Redikk talking about the firemen and plumbers of past eras is as bad as the NFL honoring Charlie Kirk?
So it's not really fukk both -- say less.
