Can't Be Real: An All White Basketball League?

UPDATE: Thanks to friend and contributor Stupid Monkey Planet for doing the legwork and confirming that it is indeed a hoax. Had to be! Thanks, Monkey.

Rant - All-White Basketball League: Hoax!

ORIGINAL POST:

Really? It's not April Fool's Day, Ashton Kutcher stopped making Punk'd years ago, and this doesn't seem to be from The Onion. But I'm still suspicious. Could there really be a group of people so out-of-touch in 2010? Really? I'm just having a hard time believing it's true.

[Excerpt]

New basketball league open to whites only, to get away from the ‘street-ball’ played by ‘people of color.’

new professional basketball league called the All-American Basketball Alliance (AABA) sent out a press release on Sunday saying that it intends to start its inaugural season in June, with teams in 12 U.S. cities. However, the AABA is different from other sports leagues because only players who are “natural born United States citizens with both parents of Caucasian race are eligible to play in the league.” AABA commissioner Don “Moose” Lewis insists that he’s not racist, but he just wants to get away from the “street-ball” played by “people of color” and back to “fundamental basketball.” Lewis cited the recent incidents of bad behavior by NBA players, implying that such actions would never happen with white players. . .

Happy Cinco Tres de Mayo!

White people playing Mexican (from Igougo.com)

Today is an nearly annual event for my surrogate family out here in Las Vegas. Before moving here nearly 15 years ago, I'd only recently even heard of "Cinco de Mayo," the Mexican Independence Day. I guess we didn't cover Mexican history much in school, and immigrants from south of the border were just not very numerous in central Ohio back then.

But here in the Southwest, the holiday is fairly widespread. So we gringos take advantage of the event as an excuse to drink margaritas and cervezas! Not to mention our bastardized Ameri-Mex foods. Because of this adopted holiday, I probably won't be posting a whole lot today. So if you don't see anything new before late Monday, don't be surprised!

¡Fiesta!
