these are young black men that feel helpless. they are trying to figure out a way to make an impact. millions marching hasn't done anything yet. what do you do when you feel helpless? maybe they figure if you start impacting rich white folks dollars, it may carry weight. and to their credit, it will hurt their pocket books too.

the US just needs more sports to follow suits - like college football or the NFL - sports where white folks will be impacted more - especially in the midwest and south. then you may see progress.

What does doing nothing accomplish? People at the time would have said the same thing to Rosa Parks. At least they're trying to do something. Cast a stone into a pond and you never know where the ripples will reach.

I wonder if this will go on long enough to cancel the playoffs. I changed my stance on this. I would now support this.
