Honkey Ball!

As some of you may know, there is a movement toward forming an Atlanta based semi-professional basketball league called the All American Basketball Allegiance (AABA). The criteria: "Only players that are natural born United States citizens with both parents of Caucasian race are eligible to play in the league."

Here are some further comments by their commissioner Don "Moose" Lewis:

"There's nothing hatred about what we're doing," he (Moose) said. "I don't hate anyone of color. But people of white, American-born citizens are in the minority now. Here's a league for white players to play fundamental basketball, which they like."

Upon hearing this news I thought to myself: Please, PLEASE let this happen! Because I am a fan of the NBA.

As a fan of the NBA I have grown so very, very tired of every middle-aged honkey repeating the same complaints: 'I'm sick of the way the play nowadays with their bling and their tattoos and their show-boating and the hip-hop culture and the (blah blah blah)... I liked it when they played more fundamental basketball..."

I'm not even necessarily referring to red-necked racists. I'm speaking of every middle-aged white guy that repeats the same old aforementioned complaints about the state of professional basketball.

Well, here you go, cracker. Try to enjoy a white only league that, by their own rules, couldn't include NBA Allstars Steve Nash, Paul Gasol, and Dirk Nowitzki -- all who happen to be white... but, you know... foreign born.

And when I say 'try' I mean TRY. Seriously, you wouldn't make it past the first half, because it will be so fantastically bad it may just make you shut up and realize that every professional sport goes through an evolution.

But, at least until tip-off, enjoy a league of your own.
