The players have finally used their power. How do the owners use their power to take on the racists

[malaise]

Nike showed the way - Fuck the Con and his racists. Take them down!

It is white violence at the heart of this.

Life matters more than property.


That is the essential fight.
Snippets from several persons -

[Wellstone ruled]

1. Money money money .

These Team Owners donate millions to Trump.

[malaise]

2. They will now have to choose a side

That's good news

[Wellstone ruled]

3. So friggin hard not to rant

about just how Racist a couple of Team Owners as well as their Office Staffers are. So glad those B to B days are done. No more rich people spewing racist comments about their employees.

4. Per The Guardian, Nov 11, 2016

Sport team owners directed a lot more money toward congressional PACs for Rs, but the that wasn't true of the presidential race.

The trend in conservative support across team owners is notably reversed in the race for president, where contributions to the Clinton campaign robustly exceeded donations to Trump.

This is particularly true of NBA owners. Much more so than NFL, MLB, or NHL owners.

5. They could strike at the root

and give that power, i.e. their ownership, to the players and the communities they are in.

But that's not gonna happen.

6. We can dream about that

but they could stop funding these racist criminals

7. owners come out against Trump

If I was a player, I would say to my owner the only way I step on the court is if you have a press conference and/or come together with other owners and denounce that the reason we are here is because of lack of leadership in this country, and the only way this changes is to vote him out of office. Give them a deadline and if they don't, season over!!
