Gail Miller will be the Governor of the Jazz

[LoPo]

I think this is a major stretch, but whatever. I'm not going to tell somebody who is offended not to get offended. That's just the age we live in.

If you are going to come up with a new term, don't use "Governor". Just seems dumb.

Find a new term. Use something that makes more sense. Anything else.

Use "Leader". A good leader leads by example. So stupid stuff like that GS "owner" pushing Lowry would seem as bad as it was. Many of these sound and seem better than Governor - https://www.thesaurus.com/browse/leader

2 pages and nothing but privileged white men complaining about how everyone is a bitch today.

Carry on.

Please, educate us privilege, white men.

The majority of NBA players are black where a lot of their ancestors were slaves. The players make up the team, the team has an owner. So, vicariously it's just like saying you own the players.

Im a white guy from Utah, I'm not offended by either term, im NOT a black NBA player, so I cant say "it's not offensive" just because IM not offended by it.

There are many.

If I were an NBA owner this wouldn't concern me at all. So long as the checks keep rolling in they could call me captain clown shoes for all I care. It's cute to see so many people upset on their behalf though.

I don't think the owners care to your point just like I don't think people are "upset." It's more of an eye roll and making something a bigger issue than it is.

I think more people were "upset" an owner was called, well, an owner tbh.

This change doesn't hurt anyone. All I see are a bunch of whiney white people complaining that some people were offended by a term. If you are upset by this change you need to grow up and re-prioritise what should and shouldn't offend you

I'm sure you would think different about the term if your ancestors went through generations of slavery.

Oh ****ing spare me. They own the team, not the player.

I fully, seriously support this.

Wait, what day is this?

Yes, let’s all kowtow to everyone who feels offended, no matter if the “offense” has merits or not.

Who are you to say that something is or isnt offensive to someone else? Man, what an ego
