What blows my mind is watching people suddenly discover their morals when it comes to this while ignoring everything else they already support. A lot of yāall support Unrivaled. A lot of yāall support the W. Some of yāall are buying All-Star tickets knowing exactly what patches are going to be on those jerseys. Many of yāall support the NBA too. Hell, Iāve even seen people bend over backwards defending Paigeās AI partnership.
The reality is that almost every major league, company, and athlete is tied to money from corporations, investors, governments, or countries that somebody can find an issue with if they dig deep enough. So if your issue is genuinely about morals, keep that same energy across the board.
But if youāre only pulling out the moral outrage for Project B while giving everything else a pass, thatās hypocrisy. Quite frankly, itās performative. You donāt have to support Project B. You donāt have to like it. But acting like itās uniquely unethical while ignoring similar relationships throughout sports, the same leagues, teams, and players you already support and even want her to be a part of, is crazy to me.
* and this is not me telling people not to be disappointed. Or whatever. Have valid criticism. Idc. Iām not telling anyone to abandon their morals because of an athlete. If anything, I which people would stop putting moral clause onto athletes, you donāt know these people. But Itās honestly bigger than that lol. Itās just a pattern where people have selective outrage and itās so stupid.
