I was affected by all this in a very personal way. ESPN decided to air MOAR SPORTSCENTER to talk about this at like 8pm last night, so 30for30 was sent to ESPN2 but they didn't clear it with my DVR first.

Look at me, two posts in the NBA thread.

Being racist and being prejudice are two completely different things and a lot of people can't grasp the difference or know there's a difference at all.

If Mr. Scott was basing his views off history of his ancestors, he should understand them a little better.

Jim Crow era was a time of racism and prejudice in America.

Slavery wasn't.

I'm sure you have some inane semantic argument to provide in support of your point.

My advice is to just keep it to yourself.

Most colleges are biased. I think it creates a lot of close minded people.

Redundant. This stance is abundantly clear based on prior posts.

False. How bout them Grizzlies? Fun to watch all of the other top teams in the NBA crap the bed while the Heat roll into Round 2.

I deal in facts.

Fact is Sterling is a ****, sure. But people knew he was a **** racist 10 years ago, why now?

This thing is going to drag on for a long time I think. Lots of hiccups along the path.

So the BulletsWizards won their second playoff series of my lifetime...

I hope they win it all but I know there is NO chance of that.

They have a great chance to make the ECF, though. Would be a terrific season for them.
