The NBA, time and time again, has proven to f*ck over women and children. Too many horrible men in the NBA have been domestic abuser, child abusers, s*xual harassers, etc.
Josh Primo FLASHED HIMSELF to the Spurs team psychologist, who is a WOMAN. She reported the incident, got ignored, then file a civil complaint against the team, and only after the threat of legal action did the Spurs waive Josh Primo.
The LA CLippers then decided the SIGN Josh Primo for this season, and thought it was a good idea to WARN Clippers FEMALE EMPLOYEES that they are hiring a man who s*xually harasses women.
Miles Bridges with 2 arrest charges. Domestically abuses his girlfriend, where their TODDLER son is a witness, telling him to stop. Then the hornets sign him the next season and allow him to make generational wealth. Had Bridges been a 9-5er, making <50k a year, his ass would’ve been serving the full 10 years.
Don’t even get me started on Karl Malone. Jaxon Hayes, Kevin Porter Jr., Darren Collinson, Matt Barnes, Jason Kidd and so many more who use their size and strength against those they know can’t fight back.
Two common arguments I hear from these accusations:
- The women are lying
- The women started the fight
1.) Why do you think the women are always lying? Let’s assume one is. Okay. Then that means we do not believe anyone else? I understand that these are men with millions of dollars coming in every year, so lying against them seems like a sure fire way to make money. However, they are also extreme athletes, with above average size, strength and TESTOSTERONE. Testosterone levels are a key aspect in violence. Of course, we should look at all the facts before making a decision, but assuming every woman is lying is such a disturbing thing NBA fans do. Have some empathy, especially when there is demanding evidence.
2.) Understand how self-defense works. If a 5’6 women is arguing with a 6’6 man, and she hits him, maybe slaps him, repeatedly, the man has every right to defend himself in this situation. Push her away/down is very reasonable. But beating her to a pulp is not self defense. If the man walks out of the situation without a scratch and the women has to go to the hospital to treat her injuries, that is not self-defense.
I just wanted to vent and say that the NBA has become very unwatchable, knowing that they allow criminal men to continue generating such great wealth. We all know this would not be the case for any of us middle-class workers…
TLDR; the NBA allows dangerous, criminal men to continue making such great wealth, and it should not be condoned
Just finished watching Old Dads. Instead of tearing into this nonsense. Just gonna say good luck in the playoffs!
These leagues consider these things but ultimate goal is to compile talent. It also depends on the team since some teams like the Heat and Nuggets have good cultures and won’t sign such guys (looking at you charlotte).
WATCH THE CEBL THEN ,HOSER
The shoes/clothes you wear or anything that you use in your daily life probably has a dark side to it, or a dark history. Are you gonna boycott everything? players are there to play, not to be role models. You have the option of not supporting them.
Yeh there is money on the line. Not super hard to understand. And not disturbing either. The NBA would rather make money or not remove assets vs have good morals. Super simple stuff. Just don’t watch or support, obviously fans do not care.
