Let the tapdancing commence!!!

Visionary bars

Women are saying if she was LeBron she would've already been home. The usual "Woe is us." battle cry for women.

Did she or did she not get caught with drugs in Russia? Am I missing something? Quite sure she pled guilty to the crime!

You’re not missing anything, But people want to change the narrative.

My question would be, how did she get the drugs past TSA?

 

[playahaitian]

Did you watch the hbo real sports about her?



The consultant they hired said he did not want the president office involved cause on his decades of experience?

It's just going to get worse

That is why I was so shocked that they sent Biden a letter.

This must be bad.

Ain't too hard to get a vape/cartridges through TSA... Edibles too.

This would be tailor made for Jesse Jackson if he hadn't aged out.

I know this is a about comments made by Lebron James regarding Brittney Griner being detained in Russia. Nevertheless, these comments are the ones that might truly be affecting her return:

 

[Complex]

Lebron is saying this like there aren't other people locked up abroad.

He’s right, it does take one to know one.

a lot of pow’s are still imprisoned all over the world, why do celebrities think they are over every other pow because based solely on their entertainment value

Because they are celebrities.

Any person would use their fame if they were in a similar position. And any other advantages they may have.

 

[Complex]

also being that a black man got shot 60 times in Akron....Lebron probably should have edited that part out

because it's like he's going to do the same that he did with Tamir Rice....

understood but the government ain’t going to do anything extra for celebrities than any else. celebrities are delusional as fuck

Tell the truth, shame the devil. Shithole country...

[SPECTRE1]

I'm trying to leave the United States but they keep toying with me. I'm going to make an attempt to escape next year.

I don't find it pleasurable to have to engage in racial cannibalism to survive in the United States such as promoting contract manufacturer products, mass incarceration through dog whistling, cop propaganda, or other bullshit. Some people respond to economic stress by engaging in this behavior, I would rather just die. In Russia, you wouldn't have this pressure to engage in this conduct.

 

[scullydog]

Pretty dumb thing to say. First the vaccine dumb shit, then caping for a dead white racist at his bball court, silence regarding the brother that got shot up by the police in his hometown and now fucking this.

Man can't win em all, on t hese social takes, but saying this shit is absolute bullshit. He doesn't realize how much he is damaging her cause by saying this. Putin grabbed a basketball player that brought drugs into a foreign, ,when a war was iminent. Putin is trying to get a fucking arms dealer back in return, all while shooting up fucking strip malls and civilians. What the fuck does Lebron expect Biden to do?

To infer that the US doesn't have her back is fucking asinine.

Lebron you stay silent as fuck on the Uyghers, might want to fall back on this.

Enes Kanter is about to go ham

Do America has her back? She still there. The arms dealer is still here. Sounds logical to me.

 

[scullydog]

Has this chick never watched locked up abroad? Like I want her back in the USA just like everyone else, but rules are rules. Hate to sound harsh, but I am just saying...

Rules are made to be broken. White people bend and break the rules everyday, b.

 

[jack walsh13]

Phoenix coach with the false equivalence.

Lebron wouldn't be over there in the first place.

You can't argue that the NBA is a better product than the WNBA.

That's not cause people are sexist. The market will determine where the basketball dollars go, and they go to the better product...

That's why BG has to go over there to make decent money. They want people to buy into an inferior product because of patriarchy? Nah, I'm gonna spend my limited dollars on the best experience.

Yeah what she said was some straight bullshit.

 

[jack walsh13]

Honestly, Bron should have sat this one out. Just not worth talking about it. She fucked up. Let dat bitch deal wit it.

 

[xfactor]

 

[xfactor]

LGBT and a Patriot from a military family.

if it was Pete Buttigieg, would he still be locked up?

Horrible look for Biden on paper but he gets a pass because Griner is so-called black.

 

[younggiftedandblack]

Lebron just be speaking on topics without thinking it through or doing research first.

 

[HUNTSVEGAZ]

It was the truth.

Lebron's words have the power to make things happen. Fugg politics, geopolitics, etc...People think you have to have a Ph.D. to speak your mind or start a movement

 

[DC_Dude]

Rules are made to be broken. White people bend and break the rules everyday, b.

Not rules set by a government or judicial system. Take your ass to another country and break their rules and see what happens B! The fuck

 

[850credit]

Story went national. They discussing it on CNN

 

[jack walsh13]

It was the truth.

Bron's words ain't gon do shit. Russia gon release dat bitch when they feel like it.

 

[Walter Panov]

Everyone trying to make something out of nothing. Lebron's first comments weren't dumb. They're just comments. And they didn't mean anything. People trying to find some kind of deep meaning into what he said are the dumb ones..

 

[Tito_Jackson]

Laws are laws, but c'mon...0.02 oz for a possible 10 years. Get the entire fuck outta here. Damn shame top WNBA talent can't earn a living off their talent. Guess I need to dry clean my cape for Shakira Austin

Exactly. And she pleaded guilty to get the trial over as soon as possible. State Department can't really start negotiations until she's sentenced.

Rules are made to be broken. White people bend and break the rules everyday, b.

Most of you are thinking from an American perspective. In many countries the crime is the crime. There is no spectrum. It doesn't matter if she had a dime bag or a kilo. It's illegal to them and that's what matters.

In many countries, stealing is stealing. Rob a bank, steal a TV, It's the same.

You ever heard of dry hating? You know its some person out there thats like "oh, she dont want to come back, well let her stay then..." I'm sure Bron didnt mean it like that, but folks love to twist words.

 

[knightmelodic]

Mannn fuck all that bullshit. If either one of you negroes was dumbass enough to go over to Russia or any other foreign country with strict laws carrying a bag of dope, and they locked you up. You would just be another story in the next episode of Locked Up Abroad. I have zero sympathy for her... Save that energy for someone who was actually innocent and not of celebrity status.

Goddammit if you don't get out of here with that intelligent, rational shit...

 

[crazyace718]

My question would be, how did she get the drugs past TSA?

TSA is there to search for weapons not drugs.

 

[gene cisco]

Sick of this case when cats ain't even got to go overseas to catch bullshit drug cases. The pearl clutching because Putin is involved is ridiculous.

 

[Eclipse99]

Sometimes I wonder if these high profile athletes have a publicist. Meaning someone that makes sures that ANYTHING they say in public goes through them first. Especially if it's a planned interview.

Most people know what he meant. But man, he got to realize that there are people out here that what to see this man fail. So they take everything he says and dissect the hell out of that shit with negative energy.

 

[ronmch20]

Lebron has become the consummate attention whore and is feeling himself way too much since he thinks he's been appointed designated spokesman for professional black athletes. He should have learned from his ill advised comments concerning China and the Hong Kong protesters.

So he goes one better and publicly questioned whether BG should return to the U.S. To make that comment not knowing the extent of the Biden's Administration efforts to get her released was just plain stupid and was sure to blow up in his face. What fuck did he want Biden to do, send in the Marines?

Oh well he's a fucking billionaire so I guess he can give less than a fuck about blowback.
