NBA: NBA to replace the term of team "Owner" with team "Governor"

[baseline bum]

Your governorship was revoked when you got doubled ed by the Germans and Russians.

[Chris]

Trump pretty much openly declared war against Latinos and Middle Easterners

lol wut

Your governorship was revoked when you got doubled ed by the Germans and Russians.

[DMC]

HWMFWIC would be appropriate.

Weren't you born in a brown country?

Fetch your Governor another water

[DAF86]

lol making a big deal out of this for any side.

Changing the word in the first place is pretty dumb, but getting raging mad for said change is just as dumb, tbh.

[ambchang]

I’m offended by the word governor. Who has the right to govern other human beings? It brings in heavy colonialism connotations and North America should be offended by this as well.

[Spurtacular]

Silver producing for the snowflake clientele. It's a good business move, probably. I don't see this move being the one that is too much.

Not part of the American colored people's narrative though.

dumb.

The ones complaining about the complainers are being intellectually dishonest when they say "it's just a name-change, you triggered snowflakes herp berp de-derp." Yeah, it should be as simple as that but we all know this topic will ruin 5-10 minutes of any NBA game/radio/podcast/show, with the focus away from the actual product. And just about the time we think that circus will mercifully end, Nosferatu will be given some Arthur Ashe/Sager Strong/Caitlyn Jenner award for courage--and we'll have to re-live this charade a second time. Look for Nike to drop a couple of "woke" ads during this time frame to exploit another social justice cause, all while little Sandeep slaves over the next pair of Jordans.

Nike will probably make a ton selling to the same people they always sell, while 20 triggered bitter s will call a boycott on Nike, and will be furiously looking at Nike's stock to drop one penny to come back with "I told you so".

tbh, this is the prototypical jewverman move, giving the players some token feel-good line, so they can't call him a racist when he s them without lube on the next CBA deal.

Sounds like your life is totally being ruined by this.

One word. If this tiny thing upsets you, you really are the overly sensitive snowflake.

Couldn't you have said this about the people ing about the word "owner" in the first place?

[Othyus Lalanne]

NBA is not stupid,the league has pretty much maxed out viewership/attendance in the USA due to demographics
So the only places left to increase viewership are 3rd world countries with lots of Black folks hence the emphasis on diversity/international BAME types
Africans still love sporting Jordan/Bulls gear to this day long after that ship sailed here

Africans are not a bunch of pc pussyes.

Makes perfect sense, and it's the most minor of adjustments. One word. If this tiny thing upsets you, you really are the overly sensitive snowflake. And if you say something like "I'm done with the NBA" (for the hundredth time) then ing be done with it, and stop watching it and commenting on it, or you're just a big ol' ridiculous drama queen.

Makes no sense.

You can pirate it based on principle and not buy gear.

imagine whining like a over a minor change in wording.

Yeah, it’s stupid and pandering, but if it consumes you beyond rolling your eyes and then moving on, to the point where you feel the need to voice your anger, you’re probably a bigger pussy than the SJW’s who started it.

Tell me how the SJW's starting it are not the biggest pussyes?

Your governorship was revoked when you got doubled ed by the Germans and Russians.

I am sure you would have done well as their president in that situation...

" I'm gonna stop watching the NBA"

(No, you're not. You spend every day on this website talking about it. You're obsessed with it. You love it. )

So if a bomb blows up at All Star weekend killing almost everyone important from the NBA everyone just stops watching bball?

lol making a big deal out of this for any side.

The media enviroment that allowed this...

It's dumb and bad for everyone.

How is this a good business move?

I've never heard Adam Silver " " about this subject. Seems to me like he took a calm, rational look at it and made a sensible decision.

Not being, it is

^ melting down over something so small

[Texas_Ranger]

The NBA is seeking feedback from teams about alternatives to the current NBA season structure for 2021-22. Proposals included the much-discussed play-in and mid-season tournaments -- but also a reduction in the number of regular-season games.

This league is gonna get ed...

[Chucho]

LOL people upset over empty gestures.

Double LOL at trolls upset at other people being upset about empty gestures.

Why would i melt down, i am not some ass SJW groupie.

[SpursforSix]

Players certainly did.

In any event, I won't lose sleep over it but it's pretty ridiculous to have to avoid the exact word in the English language that describes the relationship between a "governer" and his franchise.

Empty in what way?

[Chucho]

Empty in what way?

Don't be obtuse.
