NBA Introduces New Dress Code for Players

[Nappy Roots]

What about the NFL?
What about MLB?
What about NASCAR?
What abour Hockey?

yea, and none of those have dress codes to show up to the stadium

i agree 100%. problem is, is that players are no longer to show up to work in whatever they want, because there are cameras in the back when they show up...cameras that shouldnt be there in the first place...

Realy? I would think the NBA wants as much exposure as possible

 

[Nappy Roots]

You cant win this argument if you defend it based on Thug life and hip hop culture. This goes right to the heart of business marketing.

im still failing to see how "thug life" is represented by the way one dresses

yea, and none of those have dress codes to show up to the stadium

yeah, actually they do. Look it up

so you think cameras showing players walking to their locker room is exsposure? :rofl3:

If its not, youre arguing about nothing. Because if the style doesnt matter, theres no reason for them to buck

By definition it is :goof:

 

[Nappy Roots]

well i know that the NFL doesnt when every sunday they show 2 players walking to their locker room and they ask "is this how you show up to work" one is usually dressed down, the other in a nice suit...

:hmmm:

no this is the exact reason im arguing about it. because saying that is a steriotype...and is that not wrong?

 

[Nappy Roots]

By definition it is :goof:

true, but do you honestly think it is?

 

[MoFinz]

no this is the exact reason im arguing about it. because saying that is a steriotype...and is that not wrong?

You cant defend this....the facts betray you at every turn

 

[Nappy Roots]

You cant defend this....the facts betray you at every turn

OK, then present some facts to me and ill stop arguing about the rule

 

[MoFinz]

OK, then present some facts to me and ill stop arguing about the rule

No you wont. Youve nailed yourself to this cross and you wont let it go.

 

[Nappy Roots]

No you wont. Youve nailed yourself to this cross and you wont let it go.

.......im a reasonable person, if facts are presented, then i go by the facts....but im failing to see any so...

 

[ohall]

dude, what your not getting is that if wearing baggy clothes is dressing anti to someone, then that person probably isnt going to watch a league where there are about 10 white people

No you don't get it. Most whites have no issues with blacks, they do however have major issues with gangsters. White NBA players dress like gangsters as well. This is about getting the family unit to watch the NBA.

Remember I never mentioned black until you did. I wasn't thinking about color except for the whites the NBA are trying to bring back to watch the NBA.
