Advertising for Social Justice
« on: June 28, 2020, 07:31:28 PM »
If I cared at all about the sportsballs, this would kinda irritate me. I'm guessing "all lives matter" won't be one of the allowed "statements".

It's not like anyone is actually going to see it.

I once tried to go to an NBA game - I was even willing to pay big $$$ to get seats right behind the player's bench.

But then I found out those seats were all reserved for the players' parole officers.  =(

I haven't been to a game since the '70's and that was a Kansas City Kings game. I sure don't watch it on tv that's worse than watching a baseball game.
Sometimes we carry more weight then we owe.
And sometimes goes on and on and on.

I try to go to that page and I get this error below with the "Google" logo above it.  I go to the Twitchy site and click the page from there and get the same thing. 
Now that I look the same thing happens on any of the Twitchy links, but not their main home page.

On my work computer, I don't get an error.   ???
