https://6abc.com/sports/sixers-fan-supporting-hong-kong-ejected-from-preseason-game/5604293/The older I get, the less I care about organized sports. I was never a fan of NBA (but remain a College hoops fan....at least for now) -- but dammit, the NBA is just kowtowing to China's oppression for a few dollars.

I have never enjoyed watching it. And, I especially hated playing it at school. I was overweight as a kid, and our gym teacher always made us play shirts/skins, and damned if I didn't seem to end up on the skins team 80% of the time. So, there I'd be, my boy boobies flopping in the breeze. Embarrassing as hell, especially because the girls in the class were always nearby.

Then the NBA stole my home town team.
Dead to me anyway.
