Athletes and other celebrities have a public platform to help alleviate this crisis and to save lives. To not take on that responsibility harms the sports and entertainment industries, the community, and the country, Abdul-Jabbar wrote in his Substack. This position only perpetuates the stereotype of the dumb jock whos only in sports for the money. It dehumanizes the victims as nothing more than political fodder.

I assure you that when an athlete has a broken leg or heart attack or their child is in an accident, they dont say to the doctors, Dont do anything until I do more research, Abdul-Jabbar wrote. They beg the medical experts to help.

Lol at the video clip with Wiggins.

anti vaxxers are the type to ask advice on gamefaqs on how to treat cancer rather than going to an oncologist.

has nothing to do w being an athlete, seems to me the rednecks And right wing lunatics who have learned to use the internet Are the main problem.
