Time to ramble. It’s Tuesday so let me throw a few thoughts out there:
Donald Sterling
- If you don’t know who that is, you might be living in a cave.
- Just in case, he is an NBA owner who made some overtly racist remarks.
- He has now been banned for life from all NBA activities and the league will try to force him to sell his team.
Morality
- Our world doesn’t care much about certain areas of morality, or what it perceives to be moral.
- Apparently, racism is really taboo and caused a huge pushback from fans, players, and culture.
- Racism is something that won’t be tolerated in the NBA, but surely the NBA players call each other the “N” word just as they do in the NFL? I just don’t like the double standard, that’s all.
- If they’re looking to get rid of racist overtones (which they absolutely should), then why not be consistent?
Something Funny!
- So, a baseball player who left the Yankees this past winter makes his return to Yankee Stadium tonight (with his new team, of course).
- See what Jimmy Fallon did to fans who wanted to boo him. Hilarious!
- Aren’t we fickle?
