RUSH: The insanity continues to pile up. The unbelievable, disbelievable continues to pile up. Bleacher Report, which is a sports magazine/sports website, is reporting, “Multiple NBA teams…” For those of you in Rio Linda, that’d be the National Basketball Association.

“Multiple NBA teams have had ‘high-level conversations’ about getting rid of the term ‘owner’ because it’s racially insensitive.” TMZ Sports is the source of this. You see, most of the players in the NBA (most, not all) are African-American, and they are making multiple millions of dollars a year.

And yet they apparently are feeling oppressed and nervous when the people that own the teams for which they play, the people that pay them, when they are called “owners” it conjures up all of the fearful memories of the days of slavery that all of these players have escaped from. Except, wait! Not one of them have ever been slaves
