I can't believe he made the reach he did.

Stern said the agents were controlling talks, and Billy Hunter said that had racial undertones that the agents controlling the players.

:lol

What a joke. I can't believe this asshole is standing in the way of all NBA fans.

People who jump to playing the race or gender card tip the hand that they are over their head in their job. Billy Hunter is incompetent, and it has nothing to do with the fact that he's black. How a rich union head can so cavalierly throw around race as an issue when billions of dollars is at stake just baffles me.

I brought this up in the roundtable yesterday and I said it was BUSHLEAGUE and it is.

its pathetic.


How do you make that corrolation?!!?!?!


Completely uncalled for.


Like Jim Rome said, calling racism where there is NO racism, is just as bad as racism itself.

Aren't BB players the highest paid professional athletes per player?

Billy Hunter has been signed, sealed, and delivered over to a few powerful agents. He does not represent the best interest of the players. Stern called him on this, and so Hunter is making a lot of noise to divert attention away from his corruption.

BB is baseball or Basketball?
hehe...

I think Baseball players would be.


Hunter calling the race card when there isn't any racism is soooo 1993.

America and many African Americans are fed up with these kind of antics.

It's just going to take the press hammering people that do it for another 10 years to get them to stop.

If they are rewarded for it with contemplative news coverage, then they will keep doing it.

They get bad press, hurt their cause, and promote a new "race card puller" stereotype and it will end.
