The NBA Hates White People, And Deadspin Loves Us
By Jay Busbee | March 13, 2007
Couple items for your perusal here at T-minus Two Days Till The Greatest Sporting Event Of The Year:
–We’ve got a new piece up at the Chicago Sports Review on how the NBA may (or may not) be turning its back on white folks — and why the melanin-challenged are so scared as a result. It’s on the cover of the print edition, so if you happen to find your way to the Windy City this week, pick yourself up a copy. Don’t cost nothin’.
–Also, Deadspin has posted our preview of the University of Memphis for the NCAA tourney. Marvel at our witty commentary…and our foolish-in-retrospect prediction of Memphis gaining a #1 seed if they ran the table in C-USA. Whoops.

Great article on the NBA, Jay. Your line about stuff being pre-programmed to fit a demographic was somewhat eerie. Made me think. Personally, I’ve never been very a’scared of the NBA. The NHL, with all its Canadians and Euros, now that’s some scary shit.

Thanks, man! I need somebody to do a “Make Us Love” on the NHL…’cause I ain’t feelin’ it.
