Can someone please explain to me what makes guys like Curry and Brunson “points guards” other than height? I feel like there’s a baseline of facilitating that neither of them meet
In the sweep of history, admittedly not all that long, this is likely the most pathetic and most captured generation of black athletes there’s ever been.
Black people make up 50% of all exonerations in the US, despite being 13.6% of the population. Black people are 7 times more likely to be wrongfully convicted of serious crimes (murder, sexual assault/drug offenses) than White individuals.
No racist comments I see on Twitter could ever bother me. Behind them laptops is bots created by Elon musk, or scared little white dorks who won’t even look a black person in the eye in real life, or ever say any of this irl. All this shit a facade & simulation.
Jesse Mack Butler was 16 & 17 when he sexually assaulted and strangled two 16 year olds!
He faced 10 felony counts, including attempted rape, rape by instrumentation, forcible oral sodomy, sexual battery, and domestic assault and battery by strangulation. Investigators recovered video evidence from his phone, which showed one victim strangled to unconsciousness.
He was sentenced to out-patient counseling, community service, rehabilitation, and strict curfew supervision until he turns 19. He avoided serving any time behind bars, and the convictions could be erased from his record upon reaching 19!
White folks: "I feared for my life."
--They had a right to stand their ground.
Black folks: "I feared for my life."
--They should've just ignored it and walked away.
You got players in the NFL RIGHT NOW who have domestic violence cases and multiple DUI’s. But apparently Caleb Williams painting his nails is sending the “wrong message” to kids. Y’all got it fam.

Abdul Carter when asked if Jaxson Dart apologized, via @SNYGiants:
"Nah, I don't want him to say he's sorry. Stand on what you believe in, but it can't be a problem when I stand on what I believe in.
By Jasmine Crockett:
"Hey Tim Scott,
You spent years tap dancing through every interview, every speech, every Sunday show appearance telling America that racism was basically over and that your success story proved everybody else just needed to work harder and complain less.
You carried water for people who mocked civil rights, demonized poor people, gutted diversity programs, attacked voting rights, and treated Black history like a disease.
And for what?
No VP slot.
No cabinet throne.
No real power.
Not even basic respect.
You confessed your admiration on national television for people who viewed you as nothing more than a convenient talking point — the “See? We have one!” guy standing in the background smiling on cue.
Then the second you showed the smallest trace of independence and questioned that disgusting Obama monkey post, your own side turned on you like starving wolves.
Suddenly the loyal house servant wasn’t loyal enough.
Now you’re sitting in a car recording cellphone videos reminding the world that you’re still Black.
Trust us, Senator — nobody forgot.
The problem is that you spent so much time trying to convince other people that racism wasn’t real that now, when it smacks you directly in the face, you want sympathy from the same community you lectured for years.
You defended the people stripping away protections for minorities, women, the poor, and working-class families. You stood beside people cheering the destruction of programs our grandparents marched, bled, and died for.
And now you look shocked that the crowd you entertained never actually saw you as an equal.
The Bible talks about the Prodigal Son returning home after losing everything.
But the Prodigal Son came home humble.
You spent years helping burn the house down.
And now you’re politically homeless:
too Black for the people you defended,
too eager to defend them for the people you abandoned.
That’s the tragedy of selling your dignity for a seat at a table that was never meant for you.
Tim, you may be the PRODIGAL SON, BUT YOU CAN’T COME HOME."
We saw it coming. He didn't want to.
A Louisiana resident who identified himself as Marshawn delivered a fiery, emotional speech to lawmakers during a state Senate hearing over redistricting Monday, accusing Republicans of trying to “cheat” Black voters out of political power.
