I wonder if Republican Party bigwigs think that Dana White speaking at their convention will help garner them more votes.

Nope. No retraction. The original ball post was to mean no sports. No "balls".
Get it?
After that everyone got all philosophical, so I obliged. Times change, but one thing is for sure this place never will.

Black lives matter?
Obviously not those of the Black owners of the shops looted, damaged, and destroyed.

The NBA endorses clowns
No wonder no one watches.
I personally haven’t watched this much basketball in a few seasons.

https://slate.com/culture/2020/08/nba-tv-ratings-china-ethan-strauss-athletic.htmlQuoteIn a piece published in the Athletic last week, Ethan Strauss reported that the ratings for network NBA broadcasts have declined by 45 percent since 2011–12. Games on TNT are also down by more than 40 percent, while ESPN’s ratings have gone down roughly 20 percent. And despite predictions that ratings for the league’s “bubble” games would soar, they’ve actually been lower than those for pre-bubble games. “Big trends tend to result from multiple factors,” Strauss wrote. Among the ones he cited: that players, coaches, and broadcasters have been highly critical of the United States and its government while remaining mostly silent about China.
But the decline is not new. It is not 2018-2020, but ongoing since 2011-12, which suggests that the criticism of the US is a smaller part of it than he would like to admit (or that Ward would). Further seeing double the drop on some stations over the other begs questions, too.
But overall, if that is why they are leaving, then perhaps they will be happy if the games stop.
I doubt it.

I frequently read of NBA players and executives discussing the withering away of the state.
