This guy Adam Silver, man. Commish of the National Basketball Association. This guy is gonna go down as one of the very greatest commissioners in any U.S. professional sport, ever. He is a moral leader. Months into his tenure he just booted Donald Sterling from the league for life over racism. No half measures! No compromise! Just banned him for LIFE. Took the Los Angeles "Clippers" franchise from him and sold it to Steve Ballmer.
Then, just a month ago, he literally stood with gay and lesbian players in the Gay Pride parade in New York City.
Earlier this week he took the All-Star Game from Charlotte, N.C. over that state's anti-LGBT law. Just fucking took the game away from them! Gonna play it somewhere else.
I'm tellin' ya man, this guy Adam Silver is a great man.
