My friend and I were discussing a theory about the NBA....we broke it down like this:
The NBA is a form of modern day slavery.....
Buying and selling people.....
Trading people from one team to the other.....
Your not "free" until you put in a certain amount of years (like indentured servitude)....
The amount of money they get paid versus how much is grossed overall is peanuts.....
The team owns you....
They tell the players where to live and who to associate with.....
The majority of the players are Black.....
Kinda far-fetched, but at the same time, an interesting observation. Granted, these cats make hella money compared to the rest of us, it's still something to think about.
