> The NBA's players have decided to resume the playoffs, source tells ESPN.

So for now, at least it seems like the games will resume. But given how much back and forth reporting there was yesterday, I'm hesitant to put much stock in this till we hear from the players in some sort of official statement

And to think how Kaepernick was marginalized by teams and their ownership by the same issues that we all feel deeply is a testament of how systemic racism and greed really are in the USA. Black players are idolized on the screen but targets in the street. How screwed up is that!?

Sources: Every team besides Lakers and Clippers voted to continue playing. LeBron James said in meeting he want owners to be more involved/take action.

Ugh, there may not be as much conversation here by volume as at GSOM right now, but the conversation here feels safer (surprised by some of the pro-cop reaction to the Jacob Blake shooting).

Typo: Jacob Blake, not Lake.
