The Bucks stop here

[Nom De Plume]

The Bucks decided not to take the court for Game 5 of their series against the Orlando Magic over the police shooting of Jacob Blake in Kenosha, Wisconsin, earlier this week, according to ESPN's Adrian Wojnarowski.

"The NBA and the National Basketball Players Association today announced that in light of the Milwaukee Bucks’ decision to not take the floor today for Game 5 against the Orlando Magic, today’s three games -- Bucks vs. Magic, Houston Rockets vs. Oklahoma City Thunder and Los Angeles Lakers vs. Portland Trail Blazers -- have been postponed," the NBA said in a statement. "Game 5 of each series will be rescheduled."

The MLB's Milwaukee Brewers also announced they will not play their game against the Cincinnati Reds on Wednesday, according to ESPN. The Seattle Mariners, the roster with the league's highest number of Black players, also said it would not play against the San Diego Padres. The Los Angeles Dodgers vs. San Francisco Giants game was also postponed.

Sports stars are now protesting... Welcome to Trumps America!

No.
What Im saying is that those who wish to support the Democrats in any way are imbeciles.
Those sportsmen/women who wish to become involved in a political dispute simply
because of the sport they play are also imbeciles.....
Oh by the way...this is not a protest over the shooting...its simply another
way for the imbeciles to attempt to get rid of Trump.....sorry...we already
knew that, didnt we.......

Morons indeed. Blake had warrants out for resisting arrest, domestic violence and sexual assault and was reaching into his car for a knife when he was shot and whilst resisting arrest yet again.

Let's all bake him a cake!

Trump has no issue with protests so long as it is lawful and orderly...
Sports people are protesting in a lawful and orderly manner...

They are meeting Trump's requirements...

The ball is not in the Democrats court in Trump's America

I see too that Tennis players are also protesting, wanting just behavior and are willing to boycott the American open...

So you support the idea of police being judge, jury and executioner?
That's the stuff of Star Chambers...

Only in your own mind, Brian. I said nothing of the sort.

But by all means take the knee and flap your arms. Support your hardly done by sporting 'heroes'. Let them rev you up about inequality whilst sitting in their multi million dollar homes. Sure they know all about inequality.

OMG some idiots are going to boycott the American Open. Say it isn't so! I won't sleep a wink.
