Sports come to a halt: NBA, WNBA, MLB, MLS postpone games as players protest Jacob Blake shooting

KISSIMMEE, Fla. — The NBA’s restart inside a restricted bubble at Disney World, which has proceeded smoothly for more than a month without any positive novel coronavirus tests, came to a screeching halt Wednesday when the Milwaukee Bucks refused to take the court for a playoff game against the Orlando Magic to protest the police shooting of Jacob Blake in Kenosha, Wis. The league announced the cancellation of all three games scheduled for Wednesday as a result, and a meeting of NBA players later Wednesday night cast doubt on whether the postseason would continue at all.

The unprecedented decision to postpone the games was quickly followed by a similar decision by the WNBA, which postponed three scheduled games across the state in Bradenton, and by teams and players in numerous other professional sports.

What does it mean when your ideals align exactly with the corporate controllers? A total and swift response like this from the highest levels of the managerial class seems pre-planned.

It’s more of an intra-ruling class dispute. “Woke” capitalism vs the state-capitalism/crony-capitalism of major professional sports leagues.
