Mark Cuban cancels national anthem

[UsualName]

I assume he's trying to be "inclusive" since the anthem doesn't represent all people
supposedly.


In other news... remember what cuban said about 6 years ago..

“I mean, we’re all prejudiced in one way or another,” he said. “If I see a black kid in a hoodie and it’s late at night, I’m walking to the other side of the street. And if on that side of the street there’s a guy that has tattoos all over his face — white guy, bald head, tattoos everywhere — I’m walking back to the other side of the street. And the list goes on of stereotypes we all live up to and are fearful of.”

What makes this idea of Cuban’s awful is the white guy chose the image Cuban is worried about and the black kid did not.

This is what black people are saying when they say there is structural and institutional racism against them in America.

That quote is 100% correct and accurate. Anyone who pretends otherwise isn't being honest.

You obviously were not taught to say hi to the people you pass in the streets. Next time you’re fearful of someone try saying something like “how’s it going?”

1st, the National Anthem
Next... Constitution and BOR.

They will be playing the Black National Anthem and everyone will be standing and there will be no cutting over to commercials.

You might be able to avoid standing if you do a full prostration on the field instead. They are a flexible bunch.

Of course, we are informed now on a daily basis that any references to America and Americans are offensive to people who are here illegally or hate America so that is sufficient reason to eliminate it.

Guys this has nothing to do with the national anthem... this is Cuban doing some publicity stunt.

The stadiums are empty...
TV coverage is not showing any pre-game cermonies and go direct to tip off..
Cuban's two best players are not even American


So the national anthem is not even an issue in the NBA...

Cuban just being Cuban....dont overthink it.

Thaat was July 2020 in the middle of a lot of shit.....Feb 2021, they just want to play basketball. Even if Cuban had the anthem it is not televised and there are no fans in the stands.

The Dallas Mavericks have not been playing "The Star-Spangled Banner" before home games all season, but said they would Wednesday and going forward after the NBA said all teams were required to play the national anthem.

Some players are still kneeling in 2021.Cuban wants to prevent the issue by stopping it before fans are back in the stands.
