    I'm sorry, not swayed. That "mistake" could have seriously caused real-life consequences. And that goes beyond poor judgment, in my opinion. I suggest we ignore eachother and move on for good, because I do not use this board to have 2000 word long arguments. So, with respect, enjoy yourself.

    Wait. You’re @OB? Where have I been?

    Is @CupWizier here too?

    It be much more dramatic, and democratic, if members voted on such matters, instead of the whole cloak and dagger thing…

    Someone played Karen and tried to get HCP in trouble for posting here. The identity has never been established, but there are strong opinions on the subject.

    CJ issued a statement in behalf of NBAPA. Explained delay because they were trying to talk to parties involved.

    It's never too soon. It's often too late.

    Good PR firms exist for this exact purpose. No fucking way he wrote that. And I strongly doubt he had any contact with the PR firm that did. His agent handled this.

    Or in this case, all the shoes.

    If they have already been manufactured, I hope they can donate them to homeless shelters or something.

    Candace Owens, who previously defended Kanye West, is now defending Kyrie Irving. At the same time, she praised Mein Kampf.

    Hard to insist she is not a Hitler admirer when she says so herself.

    This is a bad look for Lebron. He has made such a big deal about being against hate, but thinks Kyrie should not be suspended.

    I wonder if LeBron think Robert Sarver should own the Suns or Donald Sterling should own the Clippers. They apologized. Let's help them learn.
