Hey, meathhead, educate yourself. And the first step should be learning how to read. Here is my full quote:" a good looking white guy who can really play ball. That's gold for the league."
"Gold for the league." Got it? Only a blind, naive, Pollyanna would not think that a good-looking white guy is gold for the league. Like Billy said to Prince in PURPLE RAIN, "this is a bidness, motherf***er" and sound business is to reach out to all demographics. A white guy in a predominantly black league will do wonders for the business. Ever hear of Larry Bird. Unfortunately, there are white folks out there that just won't watch what they feel is a black sport (and that goes both ways. How many black folks are watching hockey?).
Doncic is gold for the league. Count on it. White guy doing well in black sport will bring more (white) viewers. My God, look at the impact Yao or Lin had with Asian audiences. And it happens in all sports and it can go either way. The Williams sisters are great business for tennis, Tiger Woods is great business for golf. The leagues obvioulsy won't say it, but they do desire someone of a different color to shine. Hell, you don't think the business men behind boxing are not craving a white heavyweight champ?
My comment about Doncic being gold for the league is all about business, so take your vile racism charges and shove them up your ass. (Sorry for that profanity, mods, but he deserved it.)
Such a lost soul. Define white and black. Last time I checked, those are colors in a crayon box.
Your profanity shows your ignorance and insecurity. Big bad wolf behind a keyboard is todays bully I guess. If we can't have an educated discussion about a serious topic, then go find somebody else to bully. Good luck trying to find a job. I might be your boss....WAKE UP
I'm not a fighter anymore....Sorry to spoil your day. I have too much to be grateful for.
This is a test on how to handle ignorance. Handle ignorance with love not hate. One day you will wake up and see the bigger picture.
By the way, let me know where the country white and black is located on the map. Then we can talk. I can help you with your English as well, since it's clear you use profanity to hide your illiteracy. I grew up in this same ignorance, so I understand your pain. One day you will grow up.
Happy Holidays! and Merry Christmas.
Sorry guys....I guess he said something that rubbed me the wrong way. I'm currently in a different space right now....Please ignore this post and lets keep it on knicks. This discussion is for another forum. My bad Martin.
