All-American Basketball league announced

http://www.nydailynews.com/news/nati...llwhite_a.html

Quote:
"Only players that are natural-born United States citizens with both parents of Caucasian race are eligible to play in the league"
Quote:
"There’s nothing hatred about what we’re doing," he told the Augusta Chronicle. "I don’t hate anyone of color. But people of white American-born citizens [sic] are in the minority now. Here’s a league for white players to play fundamental basketball, which they like."

Lewis told the paper he defines "fundamental basketball" as different from the "street-ball" played by "people of color," and claimed recent scandals in professional basketball -- such as the gun charges dogging the Wizards' Gilbert Arenas -- have made the creation of all-white teams a necessity.

"Would you want to go to the game and worry about a player flipping you off or attacking you in the stands or grabbing their crotch?" he told the paper. "That’s the culture today, and in a free country we should have the right to move ourselves in a better direction."
No dunking, but good fundamentals.

Yeah, white people *never* flip me off, nor grab their crotch. Nooo, never.

Come to think of it, of all the times I've been flipped off in my life I can't remember a non-Caucasian person doing it.

Now technically natural-born US citizens of Mexican descent are Caucasians. I wonder if this league would be okay with a bunch of them signing up.

BTW, I'm a person of color. Kinda tanish pink, but it's a color.

I can't wait to find out the team names...


Well Bob, tonight's match-up of the Tulsa Honkeys and Atlanta Klansmen is sure to be a real nail biter! The Honkey's lead the league in outside shooting, while the Klansmen have been known to set their opponents on fire. Literally.

He's probably referring to the Mormon Hunks calendar

They sold over 100 copies to their wives alone.

You know that "ladies nights" are generally for single ladies, right?

Also... since when are mormons stereotyped as racists?

No, it just means they get in or drink for less is what I associate them with.

I wonder, does bat day attract more abusers of women and children?

And how many Ethnic Mormons do you know? Not that makes them racist. Perhaps their religion just doesn't appeal to ethnicities.

Yeah... drinks/cover is reduced for ladies... so there are ladies at the bar... so men will come to hit on them and buy drinks. A lot of good having a bunch of married ladies at your ladies night is... you end up discounting their costs and get no men to make up the difference.

And the ethnicity of mormons is unrelated to the religion. There are tons of "ethnic" mormons in places where there are tons of "ethnic" people. The religion doesn't actually advocate any particular race, there's just that nonsense about god punishing the native americans by tuning their skin dark, but that's just the old cult-based stuff... the mormons I've known either laugh that stuff off (along w/ the polygamy stuff) or only believe in it behind closed doors and don't admit to it. So, not to say that mormonism is any less or more wanky than other religions, it's for the most part pretty color blind.

Ladies nights are not just at bars and groups of women of all marital statuses go to ladies nights at bars and other places. They want cheap drinks/entry. I do not think they check you ring finger at the door/turnstile.

Anyway, guess you did not find my team name funny. Oh well.

How about the Washington http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Grand_Wizard, as opposed to that swarthy heathen team that goes by simply the "Wizards".
...
...
Oh, and fundamentalist (non-mainstream) mormons (and other fundie pseudo-christians too) think that "Negros" are descendents of Cain and black because they are cursed and other bullshit like that:
http://www.splcenter.org/intel/intel...le.jsp?sid=342

Of course they also think, "You can't go to heaven and be a god unless you have more than one wife."

Also the "mainstream" was slow to come around too:

Probably one of the best bits on the Jay Leno show have been the "Great Black moments in white history."

Actually, did anybody get a flash of Dean up on a stage with a shot glass telling jokes? Wearing a 1970's sport coat.
