How embarrassing. Not for just Knicks fans but for any fan of any team or person in all of sports. Trivial entertainment which means nothing featuring millionaires who support white men in slave states and owners who are literal Nazis.

How did you manage to avoid using the word "sportsball?" And you didn't even say anything about "the glass teat." Not even a "sheeple!" You must not have done very well in Insufferability School.

That's right sports fans. Were you hoping for even a brief moment of joy in this brutally depressing hellscape? Well bad news, Patrick's here to make sure your cereal bowl is filled entirely with only the hottest piss!! Jesus Christ dude, go enjoy a single thing for like a minute, my god.

Joy is morale, morale is durability, durability is power, and power is the only thing that can ever successfully countervail fascism. Collective bargaining needs a well of energy, of joy, so as not to burn out. So if you are against collective joy you are effectively against collective bargaining.

Hey dude, I don't give a fuck about sports but but I see a community of strangers feeling love and solidarity in a time of darkness and strife. That's actually a beautiful thing and is sport at its best. Next time you find yourself enjoying anything ask yourself, is this trivial entertainment?

I used to be a big sports fan. Haven't watched an event in over a decade when athletes abrogated their incredible power of protest and shut and played. And thinking back on it sports are a lousy entertainment. Most fans are pissed off all the time. Every winning team won because "it was rigged"

At least with music there are a handful of musicians taking a stand. Athletes are the worst and have the most power. Imagine if the Knicks and Spurs players agreed "We aren't taking the floor with that sickening monster in the building." A close second is the MSM. No one should be working for CBS.

I think our sports culture is deeply toxic, pro sports are a net drain on society, and we need to do a wholesale rethinking of how we fetishize people who wreck their bodies for our entertainment but also, like, some people are happy their team won. I can accept this cognitive dissonance, it's ok

"Oh, you like being entertained? Don't you realize everything on our planet is falling apart and people are suffering and the rich are blah blah blah?" You're right. We should all be miserable all the time. Lesson learned.

there are now five people who have liked this post, and i too am "EquallyConfused" as to why anyone would choose to attach their visible preferences to this incredibly embarrassing take

Americans feel so alienated right now and sports give us the collective identity we crave. Let us have our ancient rituals and excuses to dance in the streets together. If you don’t like it put in your earpods and listen to NPR or watch CSPAN or whatever it is you do for fun
