Heard today that the ACLU, or LULAC, or NAACP or some other such group was filing suit against the Minnesota frickin Timberwolves because their roster was too white. Yes, you read that right. Somebody is suing the NBA because there are too many white guys on a team. Well butter my butt and call me a biscuit!
What in the Hell is wrong with this World? NEWSFLASH!!! About 85% of the players in the NBA are black. So, don't you think that the racial thing has pretty much run it's course in the NBA? I mean, can I sue if there are 5 black players on 1 team on the court at the same time?
Pretty sure that this is the way the NBA works:(I may be wrong, but I doubt it) You put the best team you possibly can on the court. You win the most games you can. You go to the playoffs. You win the title. Everybody gets big, fat, stinkin bonus checks. Everybody smiles!
Doesn't matter if the team is white, black, green, yellow, red, or something in between. If you've got the best team, you win.
So why would the Timberwolves purposely put an all-white team on the floor? My guess is that they just don't think the "colored's" deserve a shot! Or that they think the black folk will get out of hand with the power!
Give me a damn break! There isn't an owner in the NBA who doesn't want to win a title. And win it now. It's probably worth somewhere north of eleventy bajillion dollars in marketing and jersey and cap sales. But no. Let's put all the white guys on the floor at once so we got no shot! After all, White Men Can't Jump!(I used to be able to jump, just not very high)(Now I've got no cartilage in my knees and it hurts when i jump)
It's time we get over the racial thing America. I know that black people had it bad! Truth is that a lot of white people had it just as bad. Maybe not in America(although there are a lot that did), but throughout history. What's that guys name in the Bible? Oh Yeah. Moses. Apparently he was a slave. Apparently he had it bad. Apparently, he went on to lead a whole bunch of people out of slavery and into a better life.
Truth is, by pulling this crap with the whole racial thing, the only thing you're doing is creating greater racial divides in the country. It's okay if you're black, red, yellow, white or neon. In the words of Rodney King, "Why can't we all just get along!!! I know a couple of Hispanics. I know one black guy. Believe it or not, I even know a couple of asians. We all get along. Weird huh!?!
Wake up people. The folks in these damn racist groups like LULAC and NAACP earn a living by creating hatred. Period. If one group doesn't hate some other group, then the powers that be in these groups got no big paycheck.(and they all want that big paycheck) So to make sure the paychecks keep coming, they create hate. They create panic. They create devisive feelings in this country. If we are still feeling the pain of the past century, and trying to get over said feelings, doesn't creating hate and ill-will go directly against any recovery we could possibly have?
So here's what I'm gonna do...I'm gonna buy me an NBA team, and I'm gonna field nothing but Hispanic Koreans who are all under 5'-4" tall. And we're gonna suck, but at least I'll have my quota!
