And I don’t want my lawyers and doctors to suck either.

This is quite possibly the stupidest and most racist nonsense I’ve ever seen from you idiots. Congratulations on reaching a new low I guess?

Better example is teaching. My son’s elementary school only had no teachers that were male. The only full time male employee was the head maintainence guy. If diversity is a strength, then why are we not recruiting more male teachers?
Did you ask the school?

The NFL and NBA are not free market businesses. They are exempt by Congress from Anti-Trust laws. They can fix prices and keep out any competitor.
Their version of AA is a first round draft pick or lottery.
The offices have an unofficial "Rooney Rule." See the hiring of Chucky at Raiderland, and having to then go interview some black "applicants."

I think you're missing the OP point....... He wants to see more white boys in NBA since there are not many at all.

I thought only MLB had this exemption.

Why is this racist? OP wants MORE diversity in the NBA/NFL. Why do you oppose diversity?! You racist.

It's possible Trump may be saving this threat for the right time (a week before midterms?)

But it’s ok for my health care, and other stem career fields to suck?

Because of affirmative action... I don't trust black female doctors.
I do feel a sense of ease, though, when I get an Asian doctor.

Affirmative action is racist.
Glad we can agree.

Can you imagine the outrage if Harvard was 95% white and asian? BLM would invade Boston.
Scalia was totally right. Propping up blacks to high powered institutions is a lose lose. The institution loses out on more deserving candidates. Blacks can't handle the rigors of Harvard and possibly end up dropping out.

I’m firmly against affirmative action...especially for my sports teams.

Jeez you are such a pussy.

What I don't understand was the very aggressive push a few years back to "get more African Americans playing in MLB" and saying there "must" be more African American MLB players because there "aren't enough" but if I were to demand the NBA or NFL have more White or Asian players I would be called a racist bigot.
