my issue with the NBA isnt with players that want to play. its with the idea that our country is so fucked up that we literally have to lock them in a bubble for them to do so.

but like i said, i begrudge nothing but our abject failure to take care of ourselves. if watching basketball brings people happiness, then i hope it has its intended effect. i just cant separate it from everything else, and im a world class compartmentalizer.
