Anytime you work for someone else, you are underpaid, but no one is forced to be a slave these days...

He's right. And I suppprt LBJ in every way I can...
However, if the NFL is a slavery mentality, then, the NBA is a sharecropping mentality.
It's called something different, freedom is perceived, but it's still the same outcome. We are underrepresented in every facet except on the court and their contracts are guaranteed, so hypothetically, they should be able to activate more.
No one is kneeling in the NBA.
And if you wanna speak up, ask Craig Hodges and Chris Jackson how that worked out.
looked in the mirror and saw a nigga that owns his own business and answers to nayery a white man's punch clock, what reflection did you see in yours?
brother don't run from that head bussinummmm....Good for you nigga. You want a medal?99% of us work for major corporations, just like most cac's. It is what it is.
I'm not bussin' no one over the head for my money. I work hard AF. I get that I'm just a cog in the machine. I'm good with that for now.
At least the cats in the NFL have a chance to make millions and change their families lives for a few generations if they are smart with their money.
They will get over it.
Its not just the NFL
If an owner in the NFL had been caught saying the shit that the Clippers owner had said, the NFL players would not have done shit, let alone protest the way that the Clippers and the Heat did and the owner would have suffered no consequences as opposed to being banned for life.
The issue isn't whether there are racists in the NBA, the issue is if they are consequences for their racism.
And don't get me started on the differences between the treatment of white quarterbacks and coaches in the NFL vs black ones.
It would have been nice if all the NBA teams stopped playing once they heard about that Clippers owner.. How about they join in protest with the Nfl players.. Why does it have to be confined to one sport? and Im not talking about a kneel down
The NFL PLAYERS are choosing to keep playing as individuals, versus sticking together to come to a better coordination with the owners.
So who is really at fault? No fucking way Kaepernick should be out, yet the players keep on grinding.
The NFL banned a man for a letter to the president, and a man over a religion and silent praying. LeBron is barking up the wrong tree. He is going a tad far, without enough of a historical, academic understanding about African history and his own sport.
Who the hell does he thinks runs the NBA teams? Cuban was just out here last week talking about poor ass SLOVENIA (ie white), has a better academic and basketball base than all of America. The NBA hasn't said SHIT.
LeBron is smelling himself a little too much. Slow down man, especially since he likes to call himself and his friends a n...a. Oh I forgot, it's in love. I am team LeBron, but this is not a good look, imo.

boom!
The way the clippers protested? You talking about reversing their warm up jersey during the national anthem for 1 game a protest? Nigs still went on and played that night and made that cac money.. No knee, no raising fist, juss inside out jersey for 30 secs...owner prob was like I'll make reversible jerseys next time
man the NBA forced a dress code cause dudes were dressing to black for their taste... They were outsourcing in Europe looking for white faces cause the league was to black...they had segments on this in the early 2000s about lack of pale faces in the league..hell they gave the mvp to 2 undeserving white athletes like 3 yrs in a row... Steve Nash 2 than the 1 dirk got... Nba even talked about how most of their audience was cacs in the stands and how they needed faces to look like their crowd... Motherfuckers forgot how blatant they was talking about the lack of pale in the league
As Martellus Bennett said, Niggas For Lease
The NFL,NBA,entertainment,record companies and other things that we parttake in but instead of owning,we let the owners pay us and what's funny is that everyone of things I named have unions that are run by ex players/entertainers and what are they doing?riiight because they can be controlled by the money and the owners too.
It was weak, but unlike holding hands/locking arms it was still a clear demonstration by the whole team that they were at odds with the owner. I can't see any NFL team nor the NFLPA doing anything in public nor behind the scenes in a similar situation.
I agree, it would've been nice. I think the owners try to payoff players to prevent that from happening.
Bron went back for his hometown, not necessarily Dan Gilbert Since Gilbert owns the only basketball team in the state he had no choice but to go back to the Cavs if he wanted to go back to help the city win the championship. He made it clear he was going back home for the people, damn sure not for Gilbert
no matter what bs he still went back to the slavemaster land period... He couldve donated from afar but he said nope imma make this racist piece of s hit richer...he chose to go , wasn't forced, wasn't drafted...dan was in his office like look at that negro he chose my cotton field over his freedom and now he trying to convince the world our cotton field is a nice place to be
Seriously, wtf is the majority praising?
People are mesmerized by the simplest
Nothing-ness. Homie said absolutely
nothing!
While,I agree with him about the NFL,he cant ignore the fuck shit going on in the NBA either. Just look at the fuck shit Mark Cuban said just yesterday.
He's saying that his Massa is better than they Massa......
Bron said fuck yo couch.
How come Lebron never calls regular working black men slaves?
The overwhelming majority of black Americans are in a MUCH worse position employment wise, with no leverage to demand more pay or better working conditions and they won't call themselves slaves.
But the NFL - which has created more black millionaires than any other industry - players are slaves?
A ex nba owner thought his players should be happy cause he gave them food and cars
Why he let Wade get played by the warmth and opt ot tho?
That was some funnystyle shit. Still, social awareness Bron>>>>>

I don't like that analogy at all. Just another way to keep reminding of us from where we came and keep us in that mindset.
This is bigger than just calling other Black people slaves.
He is correct. And he got FUCK YOU money to go with those facts. Lakers can’t say Shit because he is the team. Any team he is on, that’s the team. All sports is racist, with soccer being the most racist-second is golf, then hockey. Baseball has Hispanics soil group them 4th. I don’t waste my time or money of anything other than boxing now. And even there...
the closest thing we got from a NFL team on this:
