I thought the NBA and NFL were pretty much all black, which is why there are so many criminals in them.

I suspect what you'll see is more black ownership, as the potential white owners will at first in subtle, subliminal ways wonder if this assault on freedom of speech is worth the risk. Then you'll see a gradual decline in sponsors and advertising, becoming those who seek an exclusively black or black wanna'-be customer base.

It won't be an "all-black league" but it will get real close. For awhile, it might even be quite successful. But gradually, it'll become a minority sport, a bit like professional Soccer never taking hold in the US.

Memory’s a funny thing, I “remember” the whole baseball season going to hell because of the strike. The MLB the next season was bad as I recall and frankly, I was done with them at that point. I’ve never watched another game since.

His scoring average is probably higher than his college GPA too!

I agree, but neither will happen. He is an exalted ignoramus amongst other exalted ignoramus’.

Major League Baseball, used to have a Negro League. Historians, do not look at it in a positive light.

I don’t have a problem with a privately funded stadium is given tax breaks. It seems the city benefits from such things as well.
