All it takes is Mookie Betts, Steph Curry, and Joe Burrow all sitting in the same car in order for one drunk driver to make the world a significantly better place.

Ratings are down across the board. The NBA aren't the only "victims" of this.

So why tf are they alienating or making their key audience feel awkward. All the national anthems and tribal chit before sports games is already annoying. They want to watch some god damn sport, not apolitical rally.

If that **** enters into rugby I'd be annoyed. I don't oppress anybody, if anything I feel potentially disadvantaged from affirmative action over meritocracy due to something I can't help.

I just want to watch fukn footy man.

how much money are they still sucking up from the forced contracts with the TV networks that force the cable companies to charge extra money to customers to pay for sports programming that they don't watch? i want to see all sports pay per view. let those that want to watch it pay for it. grandma shouldn't subsidize your sports.

Every major sport is suffering because of COVID.. obviously sports depends on seats in stadiums, concession, etc.

Well deserved, dont bring this politic bull**** into my sports. Just dribble the ball
-Some people say good things come to those who wait, truth is, good things come to those who work..... who work later.....who work harder...... who are willing to go further than anyone else to get them. If you're waiting for good things to come to you, you'll be waiting for a pretty long time.

I checked out SummerSlam to watch Bray Wyatt's match and that virtual crowd set up looked creepy.

Especially when Randy Orton was standing there eyeballing them all before his match.

Could be the riot support, or could be them chucking up 40 3's every game. Basketball died with Jordan. Lecuck couldnt hold his jock strap.

Prolly a closet sodomite as well.

Was just watching the braves game and talking with my son that I’m glad MLB isn’t buying into this BS...next thing I see is 2 mlb games canceled for racism.

Missing the days where sports were an escape from the outside world.

I’m a Braves fan of over 30 years. They warmed up on opening day with BLM shirts on. Cancelled my cable right there. Will probably never watch again (srs)
