This moment was literally a turning point w/how I looked at the media

shyt was :mjpls: as hell
The decision and Kaepernick was an eye opening experience.
:mjpls:
I work with 95% ex military MAGA CACs back from ‘16-‘21. Those mottherfukkers were wide open with the “I hate the NFL” talk back then.
:skip:
Logistics was all black so their bytch asses wouldn’t say shyt when they came to pick up their parts from us in supply. Half of our leads were black as well.
:ufdup:
CACs will CAC. As long as we keep that in mind, we won’t be surprised when shyt pops off. There’s no DEI talk at my job now because I’m around. Plus maintenance has me, and three Asians on rotation right now. They rest are pilot CACs.
:mjlol:

'The Decision' seems like ages ago, but we never seen an athlete get turned on like Lebron did up until that point.

It’s not per say about LeBron

But “they” was upset he didn’t follow Jordan in lock step

That’s part of the reason Kobe is loved he a carbon copy it was a time where it was kinda creepy what Kobe was doing


That walk talk celebration just like Jordan


LeBron is himself corny or not dancing on the sideline it was no mystery about him


The crime was leaving on his own no yt’s in charge of him no yt manager all his boys was with him

Remember Phil Jackson said he will be broke in a few years and that was after he LeBron let go his yt agent


He was not under yt control


The more I look at it … if a yt not near by telling the black talent what to do



“They” come after you and we follow suit

Most great athletes are narcissists regardless of color/upbringing. We’ve all seen this. :comeon:

Considering Bron’s situation from birth to where he is now, he’s done pretty fukkin good ….nah, GREAT if we being honest

No crazy scandal, great dad himself, and does carry himself extremely well considering the weight and pressures on his shoulders. We give him shyt on here for his antics but overall Bron is legit a good dude. There’s plenty of cats who win the genetic lottery and don’t do shyt with it. Bron did and yes his mom had a lot to do with making sure she nurtured his ascension.

Doin the Decision was goofy and dumb and may have sounded good on paper but that’s really the only thing Bron did wrong to me.

Bron is pretty much the perfect athlete. All-time great on the court with no controversies off of it. Any Black man criticizing him in any way is automatically sus to me. And that goes for a certain segment of dudes on this site (yall know who you are):mjpls:

Absolute sickos all of them but that's why they stay at the top of their game for longer instead of the flash in the pan types. The arrogance the confidence in their own ability the hardwork behind the scenes. And the psychological warfare (whether its on the opps or their own teammatea or on themselves) they use at times to make sure they win.

Bill is a dope basketball historian and I could criticize but this is how people wrote back then

He's still a overall piece of shyt tho


Bill is not a great anything.

Bill is just a golden spoon white racist white Boi.
That uses his locale.
As an excuse to perpetrate hate.
While looking past the bigoted market place he hails from.
Which has affected him into a being a complete covert racist. While also ignoring the fact. The Celtics pride. That purposefully and wrongly is exhibited. Is only a thing because of a black freedom fighter named Bill Russell. While conviently leaving out important details. To play this kuklos long con. Like white people are over and above. While completely benefitting from black people. While dually being an agent provocateur.
fukk bill simmons.
Dude is an ignorant covert racist agent provocateur.

This is why I've never clowned or faulted players for leaving a team after a certain amount of years, they have every right to explore their options and leave for a better situation. These franchises don't own them, and bringing up his childhood, father figure, and shyt is just :mjpls:.

Revisionist History is crazy, because it becomes true fact overtime since lies will be repeated.

Kobe was never loved during his playing time, he used to be called a Jordan wannabe, and then when he was the posterboy for the anti iverson image basketball player aka people thought it was a fake image of him and then it become snitchbe after the rape situation and how he quit in game 7 against the suns even to how the last few years of his career ended with him just jacking and jacking with no regard for his fall off.

Kobe become loved because he did a great job with his post career of his curating his image and then his death happen, but during his playing time he was a very very polarizing figure that people pretend was this universally loved player when he never got nowhere near the love Lebron gets during his actual playing time.
