    Agreed. Everyone should re-read OP's post for a lesson on masterful trolling. Just real enough, but with enough ridiculously racist tidbits that you can't help but shake your head...

    This thread was started this morning at 10 am.

    It is now 4 pm and the thread is 10 pages long.

    Non issue. Nothing to see here. No one interested.
    Another Lin thread, right? Whatever.

    Not just the Toyota Center Entertainment Experience, but what about the general urbanization of the NBA? I remember a time when the greats like Shawn Bradley and Keith Van Horn ruled the court.

    Pretty much how it is already. No need to do anything.

    In all seriousness, I believe this was the video that pushed OP over the edge. They showed it in the arena and even I was a little unfomfatable

    They look like nasty trashy strippers.

    I think OP's onto something here. Really not a fan of the proleification of the NBA. Proles aren't buying season tickets. I don't see why the arena atmosphere should be dominated by prole/base culture.

    The allure of nasty trashy strippers transcends all boundaries of race, age, and socio-economics. You don't have to be a so-called "prole" to appreciate these lovely gals. It's true.

    I just got a brilliant ass idea and I want you guys to mull it over.

    The upper deck will pull the Ziegenbock and Stella for 40s of Colt 45 and Steel Reserve (with complementary brown bag). As you get closer to the court they start selling random microbrew IPAs. Maybe they can replace the current power dancers with actual strippers scattered around the nosebleeds.

    All major fan groups are happy and get an arena experience that more closely reflects their culture

    Great post aceshigh. I agree 100%. it's a sad deterioration of culture that's really to blame. I am embarrassed for whoever finds acting hard in baggy pants an acceptable form of dance. But they want to target the youth as financially successful and educated whites have long been coming to games and buying gear.
    You are speaking to the wrong crowd hence the backlash- these are the youth [interested in acting hood and talking your brains out] they want to target.

    Serious question. What put that video over the top for you? That looks like what I would expect from an NBA cheerleader video based on their dance routines for years.

    As 40+ year old white guy who doesn't like rap/hip hop in general, I thought the video was pretty good. Definitely more interesting and better produced than I would have expected.

    What ethnicity predominately plays on the court? Who are the best players? Shut up, sell your remaining tickets, and don't renew your season pass you idiot. Get tickets to the ALstros if foolishly offends you.

    There sure is a resurgence of racist idiots in this country now, must be the new fad. You're low class in every sense of the word.

    Low character threads/posts like this should be of zero tolerance and should be ban-able like other troll offenses.
