I couldn’t be more proud of the players across all leagues who used a once in a lifetime opportunity where the world was watching(because there’s very few other entertainment options right now) to do something very impactful. The leagues deserve a lot of credit too for being as supportive as they have been, what the NBA has committed to with turning their arenas into polling stations for the next election is a great example of something simple that can have a huge impact on the issue. Not to take anything away from the NBA doing this because it’s great but as helpful as it will be it most likely doesn’t happen if the players hadn’t done what they did.
You totally missed the whole point of my post.
