NBA Ratings Start Season In A Slump

The NBA is coming off two straight years of disastrous ratings. The NBA has set many record lows in terms of television ratings since 2020...and was in desperate need for a strong showing the opening week of the regular season. Unfortunately for Adam Silver...they didn't get it.

We reveal and react to NBA ratings from last week. Last Tuesday night...the NBA opened the season with their biggest stars. LeBron James. Steph Curry. Giannis. Kevin Durant. The problem was...not many people cared.

We explain why there is no short-term solution to the NBA ratings problem. We also point to the NBA's biggest problem...Adam Silver. We explain why the NBA won't rebound...until they replace Adam Silver as commissioner.

Grant Napear Sues After Being Fired For Refusing To Be An SJW

Last summer...long-time Sacramento Kings announcer Grant Napear was fired. After 30+ years of service...Grant Napear was fired for having the audacity to say that he believed that all human life matters.

Of course...this sent woke Twitter into a frenzy...and the Sacramento Kings felt the best course of action was to part ways with Grant Napear. Now...the courts will decide if this was the right decision.

We react to the lawsuit filing of Grant Napear...and explain how this could impact the future of the country.

MLB Spirit Day Sends Social Justice Warriors Over the Edge

It seems like every promotion or cause has its own special day. Spirit Day for the LGBT community is no different. Spirit Day is dedicated to raising awareness for specific LGBT issues that impact teenagers.

Major League Baseball took part in the promotion of Spirit Day...and three teams sent social justice warriors over the edge. We reveal why the Houston Astros...Texas Ranger...and Atlanta Braves are receiving backlash.

We also come to their defense....and explain why not promoting a specific cause...doesn't mean you don't agree with it or support it from a distance.

Woke Media Ignores Ultra-SJW Lazio FC Incident

The mainstream media has extensively covered fan behavior at soccer matches in Europe. FIFA punished Hungary for two games over fan behavior. The Daily Mail...The Guardian...and ESPN here in America have all covered fan behavior at European soccer matches.

With that being the case...why is the media ignoring Juan Bernabe and Lazio FC? We explain what recently happened with Juan Bernabe and Lazio FC...and question why the media isn't jumping all over this story.

Here we have questionable behavior from an employee...not a fan...but the media ignores it. Why? We tell you why the media refuses to cover Juan Bernabe and Lazio FC.

Enes Kanter Blasts Chinese Government...Where Is Adam Silver??

Boston Celtics center Enes Kanter set the NBA world ablaze with his staunch criticism of the Chinese government. He posted a video message yesterday...imploring the Chinese government to free the people of Tibet.

We react to the video...and applaud Enes Kanter for his courage. We also blast NBA Commissioner Adam Silver...but failing to speak out in support of Enes Kanter...and continuing to bow the knee to China.

We explain why Adam Silver continues to not only remain silent...but publicly support China.

Woke Oberlin College Student TRIGGERED By Radiator Repairman

Oberlin College is a liberal arts school in Oberlin, Ohio. Tuition at the college ranges between $60,000-$80,000 per year...and your hard earned money sent to Oberlin College turns your college-aged kids into social justice warriors.

We react to a story of an Oberlin College student complaining about a cisgender radiator repairman. We explain how this is another example of the woke turning themselves into victims over something as routine as a radiator repair.

We also blast the mainstream media for refusing to cover this story...and give the reason that the majority of the woke media has ignored this story at Oberlin College.

Chicago Sky WNBA Championship Parade Attended By NO ONE

The Chicago Sky won the WNBA Championship Sunday afternoon on ESPN. Game 4 of the WNBA Finals was watched by very few people...and the Chicago Sky WNBA Championship Parade was attended by even fewer.

We reveal the ratings for Game 4 of the WNBA Finals. We also share pictures of the WNBA Championship Parade in Chicago. We compare this parade to the Milwaukee Bucks parade back in July.

We also give the reason the mainstream media has yet to release the attendance figures for the WNBA Championship Parade.

Aaron Rodgers OWNS Woke Social Justice Warriors

Aaron Rodgers has dominated the Chicago Bears throughout his NFL career. After scoring the game-clinching touchdown Sunday...Aaron Rodgers screamed I STILL OWN YOU to fans at Soldier Field.

It was a lighthearted moment...it's what sports is all about. Unless...you're woke. Social justice warriors took offense to Aaron Rodgers...and he joined Pat McCafee to blast SJW's and cancel culture.

We reveal and react to his comments...and also react to Howard Stern and Kyrie Irving. We compare Howard Stern and Aaron Rodgers...and explain how they represent the two different cultures in America today.

WNBA Five-Year Growth Plan....WILL FAIL

WNBA Commissioner Cathy Engelbert spoke with ESPN over the weekend about the next five years in the WNBA. She outlined a five-year plan...that is designed to expand the WNBA...and make it more popular in the mainstream.

We reveal some of the details of Cathy Engelbert's plan that we agree with...but we also outline two major flaws that destine this plan for failure. We explain the reason the WNBA is pushing for growth now.

We also explain where they're going wrong...and how this five-year plan is a band-aid to the real problem the WNBA is facing.

Will NBA Ratings Rebound This Season?

The 2021-22 NBA regular season begins tomorrow night. Adam Silver and the NBA front office scheduled the NBA's biggest stars on opening night...in hopes to draw ratings. Kevin Durant...Giannis...LeBron James...and Steph Curry will be featured nationally tomorrow night.

Over the last couple of weeks...there's been a shift in the NBA. LeBron James and Kyrie Irving have been vocal about the vaccine being personal choice. Jonathan Isaac and Draymond Green have taken a similar stance.

Will this be enough to recapture some of the viewers the NBA lost when they went woke? We answer that question...and explain how the vaccine issue in the NBA...and the media turning its back on the league...could lead to trouble in terms of NBA ratings this season.
