Message: [QUOTE="casual-yardin, post: 3472179, member: 8978"] This is pretty good...even by ‘yard standards. Several things: You can say basketball players / actors / musicians “shouldn’t talk Politics” but then WTF should you be able to give your opinion? They’re certainly more successful and important than you. Lebron ain’t no MJ. Any reference to “no defense” being played in the NBA is like stamping an L on your forehead I don’t think any rational person would call Lebron uneducated, unless you think that a certain way of speaking (a dialect essentially) equates to education. I’d literally love to see every single person in this thread become worth several hundred million dollars supporting god knows how many people and charities give a about “China” or “Communism” (which has never actually existed anywhere in the world and certainly does not exist in modern day China). Anecdotal story: a guy I used to work with grew up in Akron. Same age as LBJ. Knew him from rec leagues, basketball camps. 7th or 8th grade summer camp the other team puts their biggest kid on LBJ hoping he can slow him down. Kid is BIG, not as tall as LBJ but bigger. Kid basically assaults LBJ on a drive to the hoop. LBJ’s Mom and “Step Dad” (Step Dad was emphasized to me b/c the implication was that there were several over the years) run onto court and start hitting other kid, ref, other coach. Total shitshow. Point being, a bunch of fat, boring white dudes from CT proly shouldn’t comment on things they don’t and never will understand. [/QUOTE]
