I choose not to watch the NBA, MLB, most NFL and have moved on from LSU with this current regime. There are establishments I won’t do business with and social media platforms I refuse to join or have dropped completely. It’s a pain in the arse, but I won’t do business or support corporations that, through their actions/statements, have made it clear that they don’t like me.

We have to make statements with our pocketbooks and wallets!

I use to like to watch Shark Tank, wouldn't make it a scheduled thing, but if it was on, I would watch it. Not anymore, I will not watch it anymore. I haven't watched the NBA in a few years.

People think they can't make a difference, but we can. Jimmy John's is a perfect example of people boycotting his business because he was a big game hunter. Look I have not issue with hunters at all, but I do have an issue with someone going out to kill a giraffe, a leopard, an elephant or a lion for the thrill of it. When the boycott hit his bottom line, he made a statement and sold 50% of his company.

We can make changes if we are willing to take a stand.

It's been the target all along. The Flag and Anthem are one in the same really, just different items but they mean the same thing.

We have got to stop caring about these multi millionairs and their points of views.. Because they are no more important than you or I.

Actually we are more important because we got to work, stimulate the economy. provide the goods and services. NBA is just entertainment. We could live without them and create other forms of entertainment.

And F you Mark Cuban. Our National Anthem means something.

"What's the issue? It's just a sporting event." It's a long standing tradition. But then, liberals / leftists are against traditions because, in this context, they represent the American way of life. Which they mock & detest. If you disagree, give us one tradition, again in this context, you support.
