Whites-Only Basketball League Would Ban Blacks, Foreigners

A whites-only basketball league is looking to launch in 12 cities. (h/t Huffington Post)  Commissioner Don “Moose” Lewis (pictured) denies this has anything to do with racism.

“There’s nothing hatred about what we’re doing,” he said. “I don’t hate anyone of color. But people of white, American-born citizens are in the minority now. Here’s a league for white players to play fundamental basketball, which they like.”

Lewis said he wants to emphasize fundamental basketball instead of “street-ball” played by “people of color.” He pointed out recent incidents in the NBA, including Gilbert Arenas’ indefinite suspension after bringing guns into the Washington Wizards locker room, as examples of fans’ dissatisfaction with the way current professional sports are run.

“Would you want to go to the game and worry about a player flipping you off or attacking you in the stands or grabbing their crotch?” he said. “That’s the culture today, and in a free country we should have the right to move ourselves in a better direction.”

No people of color allowed; no one of mixed race; and no one born outside the United States.
