Suns wearing the goof dick jerseys to protest the new bill in Arizona. Hopefully the gimmick doesn't effect the game.

TNT is reporting that Al Sharpton will be leading a march past the arena during the game.

Trueblue, some issues are a little more important than a game of basketball.

What a fucking joke. Just for this bullshit I hope the Suns lose the next 4 games.

Some issues should have nothing to do with basketball. It's stupid that Steve Nash even has to have an answer for the immigration question on PTI today. He's a fuckin' Canadian anyways.LTrain23 wrote: Trueblue, some issues are a little more important than a game of basketball.

Right, but you have no reason what so ever to speak out for the thoughts of the Phoenix Suns or the issues going on in Arizona...
Why does it matter to you if they want to take a political stand? Nothing is more powerful than sport to send a message..
I'm not saying I agree or disagree with it, because I don't live in Arizona so this isn't affecting me or anybody else close to me.

Nothing is more powerful than sport? Not sure about that.
I'm just saying, it's not an issue that relates to sports. Is Tim Tebow on Sportscenter talking about medicinal weed in Denver? Fucking stupid, just a pub stunt.

Any idea if they would have worn these jerseys on Cinco De Mayo if the whole immigrant saga wasn't going on?Trueblue23 wrote: Suns wearing the goof dick jerseys to protest the new bill in Arizona. Hopefully the gimmick doesn't effect the game.

No shit, that would gift wrap about the easiest route they could hope for. Luck is part of the championship equation. To not have to play the Nuggets, Mavs or Spurs would be very lucky for the defending champs.2quik4u wrote: come on suns win so the lakers can sweep ur bum asses

Yes, because clearly we never dust off these teams during Postseason.
And I know I have been on record a few times on here I wouldn't mind at all facing the Spurs.

Luck is of course part of the championship equation, but you have to set yourself up to be lucky

I'm just sayin', the biggest threats for the Lakers were the Mavs, Nuggets and Spurs. Phil Jackson would have told you that. Those were easily the 3 biggest threats to the Lakers based on matchups.
I'm not saying getting lucky like I'm trying to take a shot on the Lakers. I hope to God that if we make the next round we can play the Hawks somehow because that'd be very lucky. I don't care if it was luck or not as long as my team is in the Finals. Let those other teams blab on about how lucky we were, jealousy sucks ass. That's just my stance.

Props to the Suns for actually having some balls to take a stand on something, especially against some bullshit racist law in Arizona.

Because you and I don't look like we came from Mexico and have papers. What is the point in having papers if you aren't expected to show them when asked? I understand the "racist law" view point, but the fact is there are legal ways to enter our country and we actually encourage immigration. There are TONS of them who are illegal and we have to do something about it because they're just hurting you and I, we have to support them and they don't contribute. We have enough legal CITIZENS that we have to support who don't contribute. Fuck the illegals. God help us if we live in a country where our citizens are too big of pansies to not want our government to enforce law. Especially when it comes to our borders. Enough of the politically correct bullshit. It's time to get some real work done.
