God damn this has to be my most personally hated media personality. Broussard doesn't give a ****, he has no problems lying to get a story out, now he's going to make statements like these?

The combination of all these factors could seriously seriously damage a league who's future looked inevitably bright just a few years ago. People will tune out. Its value is vapid escapist entertainment. The more it reminds people, rather than let's people escape from, all the chaos outside, the less value it has.


Media, players, and owners have all seemed to forget the fans have their own lives and own families to take care of. People are more worried about their mortgage and saving for college than a bunch of pro athletes bickering over money. Pro athletes are so far gone in terms of everyday life I guess it's understandable, but dont blame the fans when the goose is cooked in a few years.

I agree with Chris on this one.

The Kyrie criticism makes zero sense to me.

One of the things people supporting Kyrie don't seem to get is... players have their platform regardless of whether or not the NBA plays. Playing doesn't stop them from communicating. Right?

I'm not going to blame Broussard necessarily, because his job is to get reactions, and that's what he's doing.
