Cuban/Mavericks Stop Playing National Anthem

[SpaceCoastVol]

Said differently, if you’re all about “respecting others’ beliefs,” then stop worrying about what Kaepernick is doing during the anthem

I don't GAF about that racist idiot.

 

[SpaceCoastVol]

Why are you even asking me this? What is the point?

I remember it all, specifically the parts that are slick state-worshipping propaganda devised by an avowed socialist author.

wow. Such hate.

 

[SpaceCoastVol]

So nobody would be losing their minds if someone were stomping on an alphabet flag of a blm “mural”?

ding ding ding

Thank God.

There is no real reason or need to have the national anthem before every sporting event. Much more important things to worry about than virtue signaling how patriotic you are 6 michelob lights deep at an NBA game. I would wager 99% of the people in this thread decrying this as some sort of horrible attack against them personally don't even watch the NBA, much less go to games.

And if you are 6 beers in by the time it's played I think you need to seek a program. Either that or you are stupidly wasting a bunch of money to go to a game you probably don't remember.

In either case. LOL

Chinese New Year literally has nothing to do with the government of China. This would be like some idiot from China being upset because the NBA doesn't play the Chinese national anthem but gives a nod to Christmas.

What would Travis be doing without all the masses starving for clickbait BS?

Makes no sense to play the anthem at sporting events unless we are playing in the Olympics or some other international event.

I would bet if you had a show of hands for Americans wanting the NBA to play in America or Chinese for the NBA to play in China we would be saying goodbye to the NBA in this country by a large margin.

You really are out of touch

Really? The sport is way more popular in China than it is here, move it to China.

 

[USAFgolferVol]

No, I'm saying the selective outrage by NBA players is ignorant and unprincipled.

No more than the selective outrage displayed in this forum

 

[USAFgolferVol]

But you said more Americans want it moved to China, which is both absurd and ignorant. You seem to believe most people in this country espouse the same feelings as you

I don't have figures, but it seems like the NBA has been moved from the four broadcast networks to sports networks like ESPN to I couldn't tell you where to find one of their games. I don't know one person that watches their games so yeah just because you watch them doesn't mean anyone else does. Look up the TV ratings for them, not many people watch.

I do watch a lot of the games. I simply ignore their silly grievances. I know a lot people who watch at least parts of games. The broadcasts usually don't contain much political talk, if any. Barkley and Shaq are great in studio

More and more people are streaming games while less and less are tuning into TV.

If that's your excuse so be it. I really don't care how many people watch that crap game.

Yet here you are, posting about it.

I dont disagree with this, but there is a war being waged against this country and the ones waging it are loving actions like this.

Yet to defend this nation you will gladly throw away one of its founding principles? Freedom of speech. You dont have to think America is number 1 to live here. Nor should you.
