We do generate a lot of revenue, but only a portion of that (a small one at that) goes to the athletes, there’s stadium contracts, tv deals, brand exposure, coaching staff payroll, front office pay roll etc etc.
When I think of boycotts, obviously u have to sacrifice, but I also think that majority athletes aren’t having the way we think they are. So for a boycott to succeed AND these players get paid, black people would have to own controlling interest in these teams to legit make a “black-owned business”
That’s where the problem lies imo, even the NBA teams who boycotted last Summer had to notify the NBA (a white league) as to wat they were doin prior. Until the wealthy of our ethnicity step up, players would have a tall task in front of em
