Huh, what a surprise:

 NBA will stop pushing BLM message on the court after ratings plummet


Who would have thought? I mean, we all want politics with our sports, right? Strife in the things we view for relaxation...yeah, we want that...


Reports are that viewership is down by nearly 70%.

I say... let the crime fit the punishment... 'See if the NBA can stay afloat with only a black clientele...

Yeah, I'm sure the NBA ratings drop had nothing to do with the direct competition from the NFL, College Football, the baseball play-offs, the NHL play-offs, the MLS play-offs and a very contentious 2020 election season in the midst of a pandemic.

I'm not saying the NBA didn't lose any viewership because of their BLM message, but to suggest, in this strange year, that that was the singular factor is foolish.
