Trump "withdraws" White House invitation to Stephen Curry after Curry declines
- Thread starter ElectricBlanketFire
- Start date
All I am saying is that it's not the prusident who is the problem.
It's the black peoples!
Curry without basketball shoes is probably like 6'2... Obama probably is a true 6'1 so with shoes he'd be listed only an inch or two under Curry in the league.

Just like athletes wouldn't man up and disrespect our flag in front of our military

You do realize people who are in military attend nfl games lol so in fact they do take a knee in front of them.
Fuck Charles Barkley.

And now Melo is apparently heading to the Thunder. This truly might be the greatest NBA off-season ever.

This is the sad thing. He has soooooooooooooooo many things to worry about, but he is literally making news about the most inconsequential things.

Well this went from non-story to mega-interesting in the span of an hour!
Good.

In case anyone was worried that Uncle Ruckus has nothing to say on the subject...
It started with his comments last night and this morning he really attacked Curry for no reason. He woke a sleeping beast in the sports world. No way they can ignore this now.

McCoy gotta reform his image after criticizing players who protested.

What a piece of shit. "I need to get paid for my opinion,bad or good, that's how you know it's sincere" wtf
Oh god, can someone at FS1 cancel this clown? No one wants to hear what this tap-dancing SOB has to say about any of this.

23's KO is awesome but at the same time he's sticking up for Curry, like really?

Like what? Did you imagine that they hated each other or something?
Why wouldn't he? This transcends professional rivalry, and they're friends outside of the league.

Yeah but Brady is one of Trump's biggest fans (per Trump) so all is forgiven.

Isn't Curry like LeBron's ultimate rival?
Bball is just a game.

Can the thread title be changed to show Curry already stated flatly that he wasn't going before, please? That "45's mind distorts his memories to live in a NPD fantasy world then broadcasts that to be the narrative" thing is what'll happen again and it needs to be fought.
As black men, they are under the same plight in this country.
Some things are bigger than sports or your job.
Basketball is just a game
And there aren't really rivals like that even on the court these days anyways, they're only rivals in the sense they played in the finals a lot

Lmao. Trump just can't resist himself. What a joke.
It has NOTHING to do with the military you piece of Trump.
I have mad respect for every single person that serves as I imagine these players do as well. Heroes to me and something I admit I could never do.
But I would take a knee because it's not about that. They want to put up the faces of the military service member and people are sitting for that, then you might actually have a point but it's a stupid straw man spewed by the likes of Hannity and stupid people are falling for it. People that don't want it to be anything else than "they hate America, they hate the military, they hate the flag"

C'mon you got to live a little, rivalries are fun. You think people cared about what Bird and Magic thought of one another off the court? That's why I don't like peaking behind the curtain too much
Why would a rivalry matter under this context though...
Rivalries are fun but they are not more important than the fact that a white supremacist is the POTUS.

you're totally right. a fictitious rivalry is more important than someone that has the power to make the real world hell
stick to basketball losers. no one's paying you to try to make the world a better place

Opposing fascism is more important than liking sports.
Why do people care about this guy's opinion? You guys keep him relevant more than anything.
Fun fact: they were both born in Akron.
Lebron has done more for Ohio than our joke of a president ever will. Of course he's mad that the state voted for this pos.

So obviously it's clear Curry declined. But lets take a look at Trump's statement; He's hesitating so the invitation is withdrawn? What kind of big baby bitch shit is this?
This is the president? The white house isn't a fucking club
. Holy fuck.
This is the president? The white house isn't a fucking club
(actually it is, white supremacist house)
