Jaylen Brown was labeled a problem at 19. Boston just proved the label stuck
Author Jonathan Conyers argues that Jaylen Brown continues to be punished by the NBA for being "a man who reads and speaks his mind."

Didn't want this convo in that thread.
(Not you)
But the inconsistencies with how we talk about how athletes should move will never not frustrate me.
Some days yall are cool with this type of behavior.
Other times yall say anyone that has negative things to say about this type of movement only says it because we are worried about how white folks view us.
It's annoying man.

To this day…..I still don’t get/understand the obsession with adults/grown men playing with fireworks. Leave that for the professionals.
What’s the age limit when men should stop? 17?

First he said grown men shouldn’t use them. Then he said leave it to the professionals. Then he said you shouldn’t use it past the age of 15.
Who are the professionals?

I didn’t say anything about me playing with fireworks
I just had to question the soundness of your mind thinking regular ppl will refrain from setting off fireworks during celebrations and would instead hire a company to do it for them. Especially when your cutoff is 15 yr olds “playing” with fireworks.It may be an experience/responsibility and/or culture thing.

I think first you should read the verse he shared with you.I didn’t say anything about me playing with fireworks
It may be an experience/responsibility and/or culture thing.
I think that sets the stage for context. In regards to what he was sharing and also how your responding.

What verse did he share with me?
I think you’re missing the context in which ppl use fireworks.
I’ve never been in or seen a situation where it’s nothing but grown *** men setting off fireworks. I don’t know where they do that at. If that’s only context he’s speaking about sure w/e but that’s foreign in my eyes.
Also last I checked minors can’t even purchase fireworks. An adult buys them, sets them off for the children on the block or the park or the neighborhood. At best a big brother might let a younger sibling set off a m40 or something along those lines.
Even in the clip DC posted in here it’s on a neighborhood block as a part of content for some stream. They’re not hiring a company

I actually had to go back and look. I didn’t even read that
That post was replying to him saying the age 15.
He states the verse but then he goes on to say at most he would say 15.
You talking like he actually posted the verse. Not to mention you originally said he shared it with me like I asked about it

Had a similar convo with an uncle. There's a generation of black folks who dont really know other black folks. Grew up in white neighborhoods and got educated with white folks etc. Shanquella Robinson went a trip and pretty much the same thing happened. Gotta be careful out here period.

They friends came home and initially told everyone she died of alcohol poisoning. The above video and autopsy proved they were lying. Sometimes it be your own. ..
