This is so 2019. Absolutely laughable.

Just wait until we cancel their student debt so they can buy some newer cars.

 

[Thee Jazz Fan]

Were there a bunch of fans/players complaining about this in the past?

Can’t call them owners in the nba but in every other team sport it’s ok. Lol.

Governors? As in those people that also used to be heads of state of slave states? Very insensitive.

 

[Thee Jazz Fan]

It’s not like players are playing for free. Players aren’t treated like slaves. They are filthy rich because of these owners paying ridiculous amounts of money. Are we really this sensitive?

 

[Mongoose]

How long can coaches refer to keeping players on short ropes or leashes? Very insensitive...

 

[Joe Bagadonuts]

When are they going to replace "players" with something less sexist?

 

[Thee Jazz Fan]

MJ as an owner has to be pissing all these former players off lol

Don't they know the history of the term Governor? Also, most of the English speaking world use Governor to be a person (generally woman) who babysits children. We think these grown adults are children!!! Also, when will they get rid of WNBA. What right do they have to identify the gender of the athletes!

This reminds me of when ESPN got pushback for doing a mock auction draft for fantasy football. I do one every year.

 

[Thee Jazz Fan]

Maybe they should be more concerned with there not being enough minority owners in the league then what we refer a person who has possession of a pro team. Lol

I would be curious about how many players really care about this sort of thing. Doesn't matter to me at all what they call themselves, but if the players are pushing for it, then sure, it's their league after all *shrug*
