Smh.

Not even trolling here in all seriousness, but Kyrie spent a lot of time this offseason down here and hung out with my best friend a few times. Dude does not want to be in Cleveland at all according to my boy. He was actually pissed about playing there from what I was told. Obviously I wasn't there so I don't have the entire story but this guy has no reason at all to lie to me about something like that because he's not even a big NBA fan. Maybe he'll change his mind but that's just what I heard. As for what he can turn into, a superstar to be honest. He's a great player and is only going to get better.

Lol its a joke go back and read the first page.

Great game to be at but far from the Heat's best performance lately. @IllWill I actually did talk shit with a black Knicks fan lmao but I'm not sure if he was a Democrat or not. I have no voice from yelling it was a great atmosphere. The Big 3 was solid but Bosh was great tonight. 25 and 8 on 65% shooting from the field. He out played Amare big time tonight. The Knicks have a lot of talent but I'm just not sure they all fit well together. Something off about them IMO. They're going to be a tough out though for anyone. Oh, and RIP Linsanity...for now.

I hope you're right but like SRV said..we lose and ESPN is going to be going all weekend long about it.

Lmaoo Thanks man.

Can't wait. I'm leaving my house around 5:45 to get to the arena on time. I can't wait, the atmosphere is gonna be insane. There's for sure gonna be at least 3 fights in the crowd tonight.

Again you totally miss the point of what I was trying to say but I'm not surprised at all. Pretty sure myself, ECN and Universe said all we needed to say.

Stop making it out like ECN and myself have some personal vendetta out against blacks too. That's not the case at all and its actually offensive to be honest with you.

SMH, did you miss the different quotes about things "written, produced and directed by blacks" and then the "providing work for blacks who have had trouble making it in Hollywood"? Sure there'll be some white extra's but lets be honest, it won't be too much more than that. My problem is different than ECN's though as I've already stated. As for the other channel's, DIddy's is a music channel and is teaming up with a white dude from MTV. Comparing a channel like this to a spanish speaking channel with news is completely different and I've already made the point on another page.

That's not what any of us are complaining about? And don't ever say some shit like that to me because I come from a minority background bitch. Your last sentence is completely untrue. The only thing ECN has an issue with is him hiring only blacks which is very possible from the tone of the various articles out there. My only point was that IMO its just unnecessary to make another network to glorify a specific ethnic group because separating ourselves because of whatever race we come from is just another way race relations won't improve the way we want them to. If a TV show is good it can make it on any channel, all you have to do is look at the show's that RD posted. How can you achieve equality when at the same time you want to separate yourself like this? It makes no sense. Idk if they're good or not because I don't really watch them but just look at Tyler Perry's shows, IIRC they seem to have done decently on cable the past few years but I'm not 100% sure. If you come up with a good show, it will get played..plain and simple.

No, the reason we still have racism is because for some reason, some people feel the need to separate themselves (like this instance) instead of trying to become one. Sounds corny as [expletive] but its the truth.

Still waiting on those videos Sacha. We can't help you if you don't post them.

There was no point. He just had to deflect and resort to childish shit like that as usual.

That's your only response to what he wrote?

Maybe if the ref actually did his job none of this would've happened..

What were those "personal issues" KG missed time for? Apparently he's expected to play tonight.

Should be in the gym in around an hour and a half. Today is a go ham day. Chest/biceps/shoulders/forearms and abs at the end like always.

http://www.cnn.com/2...tion/index.html That article offers both sides of the argument so you decide on what you believe. However, lets be honest...whites are fair game in the media and in pop culture for everyone but if a white makes a joke about blacks or hispanics they're gonna have to issue a public apology within 24 hours. As for the Magic Johnson thing..honestly I stand by my comment earlier that there's no need for an entire channel dedicated to celebrating a specific culture...especially when there's one that already does that. If you can come up with a good TV show it shouldn't matter what race you are because it'll be recognized. All the shows that RD mentioned were shows that people of both races grew up watching including myself so its no coincidence that they were all on either NBC, CBS, ABC or Fox. In terms of Jeremy Lin, I think that's a story that everyone is embracing to be honest but I haven't really looked into who's behind him the most. Finally, when it talks about shows "written, directed and produced by blacks"...that right there already sounds like what ECN was saying and so does this: What about all the other white/hispanics struggling to find work in Hollywood? Should we just make a channel celebrating white history and achievement so they can find work? The idea is just ridiculous IMO. This thread should also get moved to the lounge.

Why does someone's role model have to be based off of race? No one should be ashamed of looking up to someone successful because that person is a different race than them. LMAO @ the majority races aren't discriminated against comment. And the Telemundo comment is obviously an exception because its meant for those who speak a different language because they otherwise wouldn't understand wtf they're watching a lot of the time. Completely different topic.

So I've been back in the gym after a couple months off because of a hurt left shoulder. Had my first legs day yesterday so naturally I'm dying today. Leg pressed 430 no problem which I didn't think I'd be able to first day back so that was good.

Redeem Team's white uni's were GOAT.

I just don't understand why you need a channel to celebrate a particular ethnic group. And lets be honest, its not like black culture isn't celebrated already through BET and Black History Month (which is a joke in itself, just like all other race related "months"). Stuff like this is why race relations will never be where people want it to be.
