Re: Sports + Politics
What do you dislike about Shaun King, Shel? I think he sometimes gets too inflammatory and tends to see everything through a racial / racism lens. But I sometimes do agree with him and think he's a good activist and advocate for minority rights.
Re: Sports + Politics
He's not the worst, but he is the left version of the guy who jumps to conclusions with little evidence at times if it fits his narrative. We all do this to an extent but King has a platform and should be more careful than those of us that do not.Marty [Mori Chu] wrote:What do you dislike about Shaun King, Shel?

Re: Sports + Politics
That pretty much sums it up. Even other journalists have come out against him and called him out on being outrageous and exploitative. But that's what the Daily News hired him for, I guess.I think he sometimes gets too inflammatory and tends to see everything through a racial / racism lens.

Similar to the NBA.
Re: Sports + Politics
Shaun King argues that the NFL's players should strike. I agree. They have more power than they know.
Re: Sports + Politics
Some of them are definitely going to revolt against Trump. I don’t know about strike but I think they will kneel together in a sign of unity. Suspend half a team? Good luck with that.
The players were protesting the police. Trump will never acknowledge that and always claim they are anti Americans dissing the military.

Re: Sports + Politics
Trump is anti-American and disrespects the military regularly, so I'm sure he'll go full blown jackass on the NFL players.

He can’t even get along with Canada. He’s calling their leader a pathetic weak liar now. I have never seen a guy who disrespects so many people.
