I understood perfectly well what you actually wrote. If what you wrote is not what you meant , that is your failure, not mine. Can I establish that there is the general aspect of my argument: Michael Vick, as per your original post. They are not contradictory as you state but complimentary aspects of the one argument.

It really could have been anybody, but since the original subject was Michael Vick, he has been the example given throughout. Seriously though, this whole conversation has been me just having to repeatedly clarify my position because you keep misunderstanding my argument. I have never heard of a player choosing a number behind the starter as them accepting their role as backup. Frankly, I would not want them on my team if that were ever the case. And then, of course, that was me wearing 13 on the Richie Guerin-era Knickerbockers. Me neither, but I was thinking it might be a subtle show of class.

Yeah, I know — sorry — that was meant to be tongue-in-cheek more than anything serious. Vy dey making such a protest? Stoin and Silvah will settle dis matter wit Stoiling. One of his teammates recalls seeing Yaz lying down on a training table somewhere near the end of his career. In the 30 for 30 documentary on the Fab Five Jalen Rose explained how the group felt exploited over Michigan and Nike making money off of Fab Five related merchandise shoes, T-shirts.

Rose said they staged a number of silent protests but only mentioned one- wearing plan navy blue shirts during player introductions- no Nike logo, no Michigan logo, nothing. Good to see that the Clippers players and coaches are laser focused on winning a title and will let nothing get in the way… Not even the chance to make a substantive act to combat racism in this country.

This is kind of a shitty response. Fans are just as much the boss as the owners are. As a die-hard Clipper fan I was very proud of the players for the actions they took. At the same time I was disapointed by their effort yesterday, it was a very bad showing basketball wise. I really thought that they would band together and show strenght for the fans.

Success amid all the turmoil would be very symbolic in the more important and grand scheme of things. But to follow up: They only did it during an off-day workout: My thanks to everyone for coming up with these — there are more examples than I had realized! The recording made public has Sterling speaking despicably about black people, but it has him behaving despicably toward his girlfriend. Yet the sexism has so far received little note or objection. There are LOTS of those. Louis Cardinals NFL http: They were colored all the way down from the knee to the toe.

Them team hated that look so much that players took the white medical tape from the trainers and wrapped the lower portion of the socks with the tape down into their cleats. This made Bidwell so mad that the next week he had the trainers replace the white medical tape with maroon colored tape. This got so out of hand the league stepped in and fined Bidwell. More on the Cards situation here: That did not end well.

The Blazers also dropped their warmup jackets at midcourt prior to their game last night. I fully expect Portland to affix a 77 patch for him. I hate retired numbers for non-uniformed personnel, but Dr. Jack really does have that honor. Side note, the Blazers have way too many undeserved retired numbers. This article at least confirms it happened: It appears the Blazers deleted their RT and the original poster deleted their tweet, as well.

This was the last time the two teams would meet in Pittsburgh until the browns came back in Im still looking for an image to share. According to this page , the orange armbands were worn by the fans. No mention of the players.

Found two game photos. Not definitive, but no sign of armbands on the players: I was at the game. I already have an issue with people wearing jerseys to games of teams not playing, add in the that fact Steve Francis was wearing his own jersey and that equals completely pathetic.

I like wearing hockey jerseys to hockey games, I live next door to the Mausoleum, but I only own Habs jerseys my favorite team and a USA jersey. The Islanders can have my ticket, beer, and hot dog money, but not my clothing money. Favorite player or something? That sounds about right. No one outside of Cleveland and Baltimore cared about the Browns being relocated. This goes back a long way but when Loyola-New Orleans dropped athletics in the basketball team at least removed the school name from the front of the uniforms as a gesture.

I was an undergrad at the University of Houston when the came here to play that final season and remember that we were puzzled by what we saw until some L-NO fans clued us in. He and I became friends and remain so to this day. Towson University baseball players responded to the news of the school scrapping its baseball program by wearing black tape of the Towson insignia on their jerseys.

They continued doing this for several games. Assume that at some point in the near future, the Clippers have new ownership that does not include Sterling. Definitely a new logo, but possibly even a change in colors?

Even if just a significant change in emphasis among the existing color scheme. Turning Jessie Orozco in December. I assumed Hinske had on the wrong road jersey but then later in the inning I noticed the uni front was the same as the other players. Sorry, no screen caps. I saw X in Ft Lauderdale on that tour. The two of them had searched for the perfect house to buy, and after months of looking, decided on the perfect home in Charleston, SC. Not to mention, their evening aerobatic sessions are a whole lot of fun to watch.

Perfect if you want to be able to use the boat inside waters. Cliven Bundy Was Unavailable for Comment. They staged a multifaceted silent protest, which included the following: I offered to give her the T-shirt, but she declined and asked if we could take a photo together instead: Mainspark April 28, at 7: Typo for Chris Paul.
