Why are you guys still watching sportsball anyways? All the leagues and teams have sold out to the Church of Woke a long time ago (e.g. via their pushes for DiVErSitY and InCLuSiON). Even NASCAR has sold out LMAO.

The Premier League/Football overall is not safe from BLM bullshit, (Yesterday in the Iceland - England match the Icelandic players kneeled, no offense, they can do what they want, but... they're from fucking Iceland.) buuut at least it is still watchable.

Now, I can't really comment since I only watch basketball when it's the olympics/world cup (not that I have much choice here, it's all NBA and maaaaybe a few matches of the Real Madrid/Barcelona teams) but I can imagine it can get boring when every shot is trying to be a three pointer or a dunk...

White guilt is dumb, even if you can actually trace your ancestry to slave owners or colonialists, you're not them. And it does absolutely nothing, do you see any of those "Oh, I'm so full of privilege for being white, what a disgusting human being I am" doing something helpful? No.

And IDGAF. No sports for over 10 years. They've been a shitty example of many things for a long time. Vastly overpaid morons with big mouths. Stop supporting garbage that demonstrates shitty values. It matters.

That was always going to happen at some point.

For the mid-range to be valuable, you have to assume it provides spacing for layups/3 pointers or shoot it at an insane percentage compared to other shots and hope the opposing coach doesn't adjust.

Good.

Only when normies have this shit forced in front of them will they care. Dozens of times I've tried warning normies I'm close to about the danger of social justice, and dozens of times I've watch their eyes glaze over and seen them shrug. They didn't care when other people's hobbies were ruined by critical race theory, but they will when it's theirs.

Speaking of which. The commie cough ruined a great opportunity to redpill a shit ton of normies world wide. The next olympics are going to open a lot of people's eyes.

The only real sport (other than MMA) I still cared about was baseball and they had to go after that too so a few weeks ago I stopped watching and honestly it is a relief and I have more time on my hands....

I wish I could get away from the rest of the degeneracy and the feeling inside of me of having to educate myself about all of this CRT lunacy but I feel the need that I have to protect myself from potential attacks both physical and philsophical plus the thing they want most is to prey on the uninformed.

My preferred NHL team is in the conference finals and I can't get interested. I've been going to games for years good or bad waiting for these big moments to come. All the fun I was going to have when the day finally came was destroyed by world events and I find myself just completely indifferent.

I did enjoy the F1 race tremendously yesterday though. That was so much fun to watch.

I'll agree that 99% of Basket-/Base-/Football is utter shit. They all got boring decades ago and have continued to go downhill, running only on the momentum of long-time fans. For what it's worth, I had high hopes for the XFL reboot that was supposed to happen before COVID ruined everything for everyone. Maybe The Rock and his family can actually make that happen. Until then, I'll happily watch soccer or something else that hasn't been totally infected by general stupidity.

If I watch a sport, it will be UFC.

Last year I watched the nba was 99. Just think it turned into ass after that. They made a conscience effort to turn it into entertainment as opposed to a sport. College ball is currently being ruined by the officiating. The only pure basketball anymore is the basketball tournament that takes place during the summer. I really look forward to it
