The conclusion to the 2019-2020 pro basketball seasons promise to be woker than woke. NBA and Women's NBA players fully intend to make social justice the centerpiece to their basketball season re-starts.

Without missing a beat in his work to stop black voter suppression and get President Donald Trump out of office in November, LeBron James and friends have raised $100 million for his SpringHill Entertainment Company to contract with Disney for scripted television. Be forewarned, though, nothing James does in the realm of entertainment is done in a vacuum, but as part of a social justice agenda…

Yep. Add Brett Favre to the list of former NFL players who took a couple too many shots to the head. To be fair, the legendary Packers QB was asked a stupid question. He gave a stupid answer.

The newest member of Outkick The Coverage blog team Jason Whitlock on Thursday delivered a brutal assessment of cable news networks. In defense of One America News (OAN), he wrote that cable news is guilty of peddling dangerous and divisive conspiracy theories. OAN has been in the news with Oklahoma State football coach Mike Gundy having said he enjoys the news source, which was condemned by…

Finally, some athletes are talking about not taking a knee in protest. Before you get too excited, though, there's more to the story. A group of NBA players say they're willing to stand up -- against systemic racism and also willing to boycott the rest of the NBA season.

The left’s fit of insensate rage keeps turning this way and that, smashing whatever comes to hand -- a statue here, a corporate exec there. Professional sports have been thoroughly politicized, and now the destruction is coming to big-time college football. Because somebody doesn’t like a T-shirt.

Jason Whitlock is a misfit. The sports write/commentator doesn’t fit in at mainstream sports outlets. That’s why he says he left “a rising, successful television show at FOX Sports 1 to become a partner at Outkick.”

When the LGBT fascists say, "Jump!", the NCAA has a history of asking, "How high?'' LGBT activists are calling on the NCAA to leap again, this time by denying Boise, Idaho, an NCAA basketball tournament site next year. Earlier this year, Idaho's governor signed into law a ban on males competing in girls sports, angering the advocates of transgender athletes.

Last week's apology by NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell has opened the floodgates for other pro sports to plunge headlong into social justice mania. Declaring that systemic racism is real, the NFL, NBA, NHL, MLB, MLS and NASCAR are all sucking up to Black Lives Matter, protesters and minority athletes who are speaking out, with no shortage of supportive media coverage.

The U.S. Soccer Federation completely guzzled the field side kool-aid this week, bowing down to hyper left org Black Lives Matter in making it A-OK for its players to disrespect the American flag at every chance they see fit. According to NPR.com, the U.S. Soccer Federation “has repealed the league's three-year-old ban on kneeling during the national anthem, amid nationwide protests…

As he decided to exit the corporation of Fox Sports, former Speak For Yourself commentator, Jason Whitlock, provided Outkick the Coverage an exclusive interview to discuss his recent thoughts on all things current events. The following is a list of highlights of the conversation and brief analysis on each one.

Charging that America was built on a lie, woke NBA coach Gregg Popovich calls the George Floyd killing a public lynching and says he's embarrassed as a white person. One of the foremost social justice warriors among professional coaches in the U.S., Popovich calls his inflammatory remarks a "teaching moment."

NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell on Friday issued a video statement apologizing for the league's refusal to listen to player protests of police brutality. USA Today called it an exoneration of Colin Kaepernick's pathetic behavior in 2016 and demands he be signed by an NFL team. Deadspin says the commissioner didn't go nearly far enough and should have issued a lengthy apology to…

The Players Tribune is an athletes blog founded by Derek Jeter, and right now it is white hot with anger over the George Floyd murder. The most inflammatory diatribe among several current athlete posts was from Natasha Cloud, a guard for the WNBA's Washington Mystics. In her post, she seeted over America's so-called history of oppressing, Republican racists and additional injustices.
