Social James Harden demands to be traded because owner supported Trump

[PainIsLIfe]

It’s always amusing that people that are supposedly pro-family values can trash a wholesome & educated person like Michelle Obama while giving a pass to a skank and a whore like Melania.

While Michele shouldn't be ragged on so much, why would you call Melania a skank and whore?

She's been pretty classy through the last 5 years despite the circus around her.

It's pretty obvious that he just wants to be traded to a team which can carry him to win the NBA finals.

He doesn't want to go down as the guy who scored all those points, only for them to amount to jackshit as far as his team's success.

 

[BIKES!]

How is that the same? "Trump" isn't a protected class under the Constitution while religions and ethnicity are. That's a really poor analogy, pick something that isn't covered by the Constitution next time.

But I'll address it anyway. If someone disliked Muslims or Jews and didn't want to have a Muslim boss. Yes, they should quit their jobs and go work somewhere else. They shouldn't discriminate but where you work isn't discrimination. It's a job and no one is obligated under the law to work somewhere that they don't want to work.

The constitution isn't what it once was. The SCOTUS in this day and age cares little about the constitution. look no further than affirmative action rulings and the new segregation plans popping up all over blue states. I think we are teetering at the point where next religion (first christianity) will be no longer protected.

Completely off subject-

Is there any truth to Taylor Swift threatening to re-record her masters to F Scooter Braun and Shamrock who had initially paid $300M for the back catalogs? I would imagine that the initial contract would prevent any studio version (non live) recordings of those songs unless distinctly different than the originals. Barstool is going off about how she is a crazy bitch that is going to bankrupt these guys rerecording the masters and ensuring Spotify, Apple, etc... only play the new versions. Sounds like she is stupid.

Melania was a semi-famous model in America before she married Trump. Michelle Obama has done fuck all but be Obama's wife.

She was an associate for Sidley and Austin. She did marketing and intellectual property law. You know what I concede your right.

Spreading my legs for a center fold> working for a prestigious law firm with degrees from Princeton and Harvard.

One of the few positive byproducts of the Trump era is that it exposed how truly full of shit Evangelical Christians are. All you need to do is pull up a split screen of their statements during the Monica Lewinsky controversy and during the Trump grab them by the pussy tape. It’s hilarious. Total lack of genuine values, just one big giant grift.

I'd say look at the 3 SCOTUS appointments and it looks like votes well used compared to who Clinton would have nominated.

Obama didn't run against Trump idiot. In fact a lot of people who voted for Trump voted for Obama too.

You're talking to an unhinged psychopath who was banned for threatening violence.

"Muh' family values"..."Muh' unity"..."Muh' conservatives are crazy"...

And so on and so and so forth.

Pay no mind to that psycho.

Regardless of why they did it, it’s still rank hypocrisy. Their main charge against Clinton was that character matters above all else. Liars and hypocrites.

Bingo. He just doesn't want to be treated like a bitch for joining a dream team, like Durant.

"But Trump" is going to be an argument that will, no doubt, resonate among the dumber masses, compared to the cold, hard truth (that he's just not happy with how it's going in Houston Rockets).

He was always a clever, if selfish, player, Harden. And this is another clever play by him.

Normally, I listen to the news on the radio when I drive. But, as we got closer to the election, I spent more time listening to sports radio.

There was a comment about how sports owners are hurting due to covid because their "real businesses" are hurting for money.

Fertitta's casinos aren't making money. So, will he sell the team or simply offer cheaper contracts?

I think your first paragraph is complete fantasy.

Your 2nd paragraph is more interesting. Even if she re-recorded her early music, I guess we're assuming that any re-recording restrictions have lapsed. She'd have a little more control and possibly could devalue her original music to some degree but she's not going to bankrupt anyone over it. As far as this strategy is concerned, she's not the first.

Prince did it, so did Frank Sinatra and many others with varying degrees of economic success.

The real question is if the re-recordings capture the same vibe and appeal as the originals. I've read arguments going both ways. That you can't re-capture that time of your life in new recordings and the fans can tell. Or that the quality of technology is so good that it is possible. I guess only time will tell.

Melania spread her legs for a magazine, and some strong indications she was an escort too. All that was pre Donny. She’s a skank. Michelle Obama went to Princeton and Harvard, worked as a lawyer then became a full time mother. Which one of these women embodies so called “conservative values”?

The white one? Solely by the virtue of being white.

I can't believe someone would pay $300M if the artist can simply re-record the catalog.

This topic is a nonstarter. He wants out because the coach and GM left and their current formula hasn't worked. Saying it's due to the owner supporting Trump just makes it more palatable.

 

[Loiosh]

It's all right there. Bury your head in the sand if you want, weirdo.

If by "bury my head" you mean "require serious evidence before assuming a heinous crime", I'll do that.

I'd do that even if I opposed his political party.

There’s a report he wants to get under the luxury tax.

 

[Natural Order]

anyway I like the way harden plays defense. I modeled my defensive game after him.

Why don't you just watch the video then get back to me?

 

[Oxycodone]

Harden wants out because he's stuck playing with the most overrated player of this generation as his #2 with his #3 being PJ fucking Tucker.

 

[Loiosh]

Why don't you just watch the video then get back to me?

I watched some of it.

It's a huge leap from this to pedophilia.

You have to really want to take that leap.
