When football starts loosing money due to extensive publicity about sport-related brain-damage and player deaths, the negative effects of future economic, political and health events, for example, or parents refusing to let their sons play the game, which impacts the number of prospects who could play it on college…

Hmmm.  Dont think it is race that will keep him out, but rather the fact that he is not a raging selfish asshole.  Thats the part the other owners wont like.  Plus democrat?  Cmon, cant have that in the owners meeting.

I think it is kind of the case. You see in every sport. The NFL you mentioned...how fast the talks are in for the next “Dynasty” - Eagles for example had one.
Everyone is like “we will be the next patriots”...without realizing that its mostly a lightning in a bottle. Its not the normality. Not even close.
Try to…

She’ll be fine. It’s tough to go from a six-month break almost straight into a major event. She had to withdraw from the only warm-up tournament played before the Australian Open because her body wasn’t game-ready, just two weeks ago. But that post is right that she needs to mentally start from zero.

He does seem like a pretty good dude that’s true.

a guy who had at least one turnover in  every single game he played for six straight years

oh this doesn’t scream pandering, “sorry we didn’t let you kneel but as a peace offering we’ll book some of ‘your’ musicians for the halftime show” move by the Ginger Hammer at ALL.  LOL

I’m rooting for the Knicks.

This implies Westbrook has ever actually tried to play defense.

How can anyone think the benching was a bad move?  Westbrook legit quit on defense.  Like, there is no defending that.

You and me both.

That and the Smush Parker line had me dying. Anyone could have seen this coming except for LeGM apparently which makes it that much funnier. Plus it takes a bit of the heat off the equally mediocre Knicks personnel decisions.

That was my expression especially after this particularly lovely tidbit:

My condolences. More people need to hear this story, word for word and get vaccinated.

My younger brother who, was unvaccinated, died from Covid five months ago at the age of 43. My older brother, who is a diabetic with kidney disease, got Covid a couple of weeks ago and was hospitalized. Thanks to him being vaccinated, he was released from the hospital yesterday.

The death of my younger brother broke…

Hmmm can’t help but notice around year 3 to 4 of every Lebron team the roster goes to shit. Seem to bring in old, washed guys who were good 4-5 years ago.

I mean I thought this out loud. Was it wise to put a volume shooter with LeBron and AD and with other players who for lack of a better term have some miles on them? I mean did anyone look at The West and think, yeah this shit will work with The Suns, Jazz and a Warriors team that had the luxury of easing Klay back…

I cannot with this Retirement Home Laker team. And I love the Lakers. All their trade decisions were just baffling.

The Westbrook trade didn’t make much sense with regular sight.  It was never going to work.

To be fair, Vogel was never a good coach. And the Westbrook trade is absolutely a failure, but hindsight is 20-20.
