I heard Magic Johnson was going to be the emcee.

I guess not now.

Apparently the vetting process used by the NAACP to determine who receives a "lifetime achievement" award needs to be fine tuned a bit. Will the NAACP take some heat for considering this guy for an award? Doubtful.

Try to imagine if he had been scheduled to receive an award from a conservative group. We would be hearing about it non-stop, with the group coming under fire as being "racist" for considering him for the award.

As much as I like seeing the leftist cannibalism going on here, did the guy really say don't bring "black people" to my games, or was he saying (I am paraphrasing here): "I don't care if you are banging other dudes, just don't bring them to the games".

It seems like the media and the left are picking a specific characteristic of the individuals being referenced and selling the narrative that he "must" have been making reference to their race as opposed to their relationship to his gold-digger, trophy gf.

I have no way of knowing, but it seems like a case of "you are only criticizing, targeting, disagreeing with me because I am black", on steroids.

Looks like the girlfriend is now talking through her attorney. I smell legal blackmail. Will the chick walk away with a bundle? Did he threaten her? Blah...blah...blah

We are a very sick society that the NAACP or the likes of Sharton can lecture anyone on race.
