You don’t understand.

You’re allowed to say don’t bring politics into sports if it’s something liberal that was said. If it’s something conservative like “Build the wall” it’s fine. It’s like you don’t even read this board

As usual, you left out one integral aspect of this dynamic. Which is, liberals are free to express their political views without fear of reprisal. LeBron James is a perfect example of that.

But, when it's the other way around? Idiot liberals go ballistic. That's what I object to; the total hypocrisy surrounding it.

when a liberal talking point is made during a sporting event, this board responds with "i dont care that its liberal, i just want sports to be free of politics". when someone makes a conservative talking point during a sporting event, this board responds with support. youre right, hypocrisy

The players, coaches, and announcers are working. I would say it's more important for them to keep politics out of their job than it is for the random fans.

In a perfect world fans wouldn't come wearing political shite either.

But to compare two random fans wearing political themed jerseys to the actual PLAYERS and coaches and announcers doing it is intellectually dishonest.

I don't want my movie to have political propaganda. If some chick in the movie theater has a pussy hat on, that's not under their control.

You're talking about one message board.

I'm talking about the national dynamic regarding this matter.

frick everybody who tries to bleed politics into sports

We watch sports to forget about all the vitriol and dumb shite spewing out of govt and politicians

When you walk into a stadium or arena, you leave your political affiliation at the door

The fact that these jerseys are even news is freaking me out.

I'm sure they were looking for attention, and found it. But Jesus, it's so lame that this is news today.

Yup. And the inverse applies for liberal dominated boards. Then both sides call each other put and start the stupid cycle again.

IDGAF if it's LeBron SJW'ing or Kanye MAGA'ing. Shut the frick up and entertain fans on both sides of the aisle. If I want politics, I'll go to that space.

Outrage at the men followed in social media comments. Some users called it offensive to Kings fans who were trying to enjoy the game, claiming “Build the Wall” is an inherently racist phrase.

Happy hour at Departure sushi (overrated otherwise but good fun crowd during happy hour)
Ramen at any of the highly rated spots
Mississippi Ave for good "Portlandia" vibe
Kachka for a unique Russian / eastern European feel and an awesome crowd of people

What?

Are you new here? Or are you simply unaware of the LeCry threads that are dozens and dozens of pages long, raking him over the coals for blabbering about some stupid socio-political BS?

Most sports fans don’t want to hear it regardless of where it’s coming from. We just want to talk/read about sports.

Eh...some posters are like that. The OP is the poster boy for these types. But if stuff like this never got posted here, nobody would be sitting around thinking, “Gee, I sure wish someone would post political opinions from atheletes and fans on the MSB”.
