I appreciate that Chuck doesn't buy into the separating the art from the artist entirely. Was OJ a great player? Yes. Given the deplorable things he did should we enshrine his play separate from that? No. This isn't some cancel culture spiel, this is a person doing a vile and unforgiveable action and it should affect his legacy/reputation. If you continue to applaud his contributions, then you're not punishing him and sending a message to future athletes I don't want to hear about how it's unfair that one action can ruin a person's life/reputation. There's plenty of common sense to go around because so few opt to use it.

The moment I kinda disliked Barkley was when Zion went to the draft. His comment was “when did it become about the money”? Thought Zion should have stayed in college. Duke charging $2000+ a ticket just to see the kid. Zion didn’t receive nothing. Name one player that doesn’t play for the money.

I remember I read about a teacher saying they don't want Steph Curry to come speak at their school and talk about how the kids can do anything, because in reality he probably wouldn't be in the NBA as a 6'2" point guard if he didn't have a dad in the NBA. Now obviously Steph worked hard, but the reality is the path he took is not the path that's going to work for 99% of kids.
