About LaVar Ball vs. Donald TrumpIn a stable country, we would not be talking about thisfeud of the blowhards. This is not a stable country.By Dave Zirin, courtesy of The Nation.com, postedTuesday, Nov. 22, 2017

In a sane world, I wouldn’t be writing about Don-ald Trump vs. LaVar Ball. In a sane world, thisstory of two TV reality-show blowhards bloviatingat each other to build their respective brandswould be a mildly amusing distraction from thetroubles of modern life. Yet we have to writeabout it because one of these natterjacks is thedamn president of the United States.

It’s a problem that the president is tweeting that he should have letLaVar Ball’s teenage son, UCLA basketball player LiAngelo, rot in a Chi-nese prison because his father wasn’t “grateful” enough to the presi-dent. It’s a problem that the president is lying to the American people.(LiAngelo Ball and his two teammates were already receiving preferen-tial treatment, and the process of getting them out was underway beforeTrump made any kind of intervention.) It’s a problem that Donald Trumphas a penchant for attacking outspoken black athletes and high-profileblack people in the sports world, to the thrill of his base. In other words,his continual, knee-jerk racism is a problem. It’s a problem that we aretalking about this—that it is the lead story on just about every news net-work—at a time when the Republican Congress is about to pass a taxlaw that will rob working- and middle-class people to pay for corporatetax breaks, a tax law that is being done openly to appease donors andstands to save this president and his family of grifters over one billiondollars. It’s a problem that we are talking about this when net neutralityis about to be gutted, when there is a needed reexamination of the pres-ident’s sexually predatory behavior, and when the president refuses tocomment on the GOP child molester running for a Senate seat in Ala-bama.

It’s a problem that we are in a media climate where any publicationor network—including me here at The Nation—would have gladly takenthat interview with LaVar Ball on Tuesday night (although CNN is milkingthis to a degree that is stomach churning). It’s a problem that LaVar Ballwho said on CNN, “Why are we talking about this with all these politicalmatters going on in the world?” actually sounds more presidential thanthe president.

Make no mistake: The big winner here is LaVar Ball. Not only doesthis P.T. Barnum–esque basketball dad become the number-one trend-ing topic on earth, but he gets reintroduced to a new audience suddenlyenthralled with his undeniable charisma and verbosity. His Big BallerBrand has gotten an untold number of new eyeballs.

Ball reminds me of a section from The Fire Next Time where JamesBaldwin writes, “I did not intend to allow the white people of this countryto tell me who I was, and limit me that way, and polish me off that way. And yet, of course, at the same time,I was being spat on and defined and described and limited, and could have been polished off with no effortwhatever. Every Negro boy—in my situation during those years, at least—who reaches this point realizes,at once, profoundly, because he wants to live, that he stands in great peril and must find, with speed, a‘thing,’ a gimmick, to lift him out, to start him on his way. And it does not matter what that gimmick is.”

He also—to use wrestling parlance—is able to remake himself in NBA circles from a heel to more of ananti-hero. In the NBA circles, Donald Trump is viewed as a racist, a bigot, and, in the famous tweet of LeBronJames, a “bum.” LaVar Ball’s son Lonzo is struggling in his rookie season with the Lakers and there arewhispers that part of his problem is the fact that LaVar Ball has been too bombastic and put a target on hisson, where every night he gets his opponents’ best game. Now he is the person who stood up to Trump, re-fused to grovel to Trump, and exposed, in the words of Shaun King at The Intercept, that “Few things irritatewhite men, particularly white men whose power is centered in their whiteness, than a fully free Black manwho doesn’t kiss their ass on demand.”

Donald Trump is also a winner here because we are past the point of logic with the racist part of his base.They would correctly be howling at the moon if President Obama demanded thanks for “freeing” an Americanin a Chinese prison. But, as he has shown, Trump—even as his own popularity is at historic lows—can clingto that base by using rank racism and being an autocratic bully.

We are the great losers in this battle because we live in a country where this orange baby is president,where the lesson gets learned that the power of one’s brand is the ultimate goal worth pursuing, and ourpockets get picked while we watch the spectacle. Rome is burning. The GOP is lighting the match. And weare all in a mad rush to be the one who gets to play the loudest violin.

Heritage Auctions HammersDown $13.6 Million OverDual Sports Auction EventsJackie Robinson's 1947 rookie jersey suppliesmore than $2 million to massive tally

DALLAS, Texas — The world record for a post-war jersey was one of several that fell at HeritageAuctions as Jackie Robinson's only known surviv-ing 1947 BrooklynDodgers rookie jer-sey drew a winningbid of $2.05 millionto anchor $13.6 mil-lion in sales over afour-day span.

A third major auction,closing Dec. 10, maybring sales to more than$20 million in the spanof a month, the largestmonthly tally for sportsauctions since the fa-

mous Barry Halper saleof 1999.`

"It's been a gruelingbut gratifying experi-ence," said Chris Ivy, Di-rector of SportsCollectibles at HeritageAuctions, of prepara-tions for the most lucra-tive month of 21stcentury sports memora-bilia auction history. "We

were pleased to see that prices remain very strong de-spite the enormous volume — it's a real testament to thestrength of the hobby, and to our status as the world'slargest collectibles auctioneer."

High-grade single trading cards and game worn jerseyssupplied the bulk of the high-five and six-figure results ofthe long weekend. Noteworthy results of the former in-clude a $408,000 result for a PSA NM-MT 8 example ofthe fabled 1952 Topps Mickey Mantle rookie, and$264,000 for a 1916 Standard Biscuits Babe Ruth gradedPSA EX-MT 4. The first great bubble gum issue — 1933Goudey Baseball — supplied the event with two majorhighlights: $38,400 for a Mint 9 Mel Ott, and $52,800 for asigned example of Babe Ruth's #53 card.

After the massive Jackie Robinson result, basketballdominated the field for game used material on the memo-rabilia side, with a 1971 Lew Alcindor (Kareem Abdul-Jab-bar) All-Star jersey commanding $106,250, while a1965-66 jersey worn during Wilt Chamberlain's secondMVP season with the Philadelphia 76ers commanded$97,500.

Bill Russell's 1960 All-Star Game jersey drew $81,250,while a pair of customized Air Jordan I Sneakers worn byan injured Michael Jordan upon his return to action in1986 set a new world record for that first Nike incarnationat $55,000.

The Weekend Editioin/Special Focus•The Sporting Life November 24, 2017 Page 7Colin Kaepernick be-

came the topic of dis-cussion once again onsports show programsand social media postsafter being named the2017 Citizen of theYear by GQ magazineearlier this week.

The issue, about to hit the streets,is their end-of-year December issuethat not only sports Kaepernick’slarge, coiffed, Jackson 5/AngelaDavis-like afro on the cover but alsopresents a new, added controversy.

At question is why Kaepernick istheir Citizen of the Year instead ofHouston defensive end J. J. Watt.

Watt raised millions of dollars forthe hurricane relief effort to help re-build and assist the residents ofHouston who were affected by thefloods.

It’s estimated that it was the costli-est tropical storm ever, inflicting anestimated $200 billion in damages inAugust of this year. The floods de-stroyed thousands of homes, dis-placing more than 30,000 people.

Watt’s initial fundraising goal wasto raise $200,000. When the cam-paign concluded, donations ex-ceeded more than $33 million.

Before the NFL season started inSeptember, Watt took time frompreparing for the season to deliverdonated goods to people in Hous-ton’s shelters.

Watt and his team of volunteersfilled trucks with the donated goods

and distributed them across theHouston area to those in need.

To show appreciation for Watt, ap-proximately 100,000 signatureswere gathered on a petition to theDepartment of Transportation inHouston to have one of the city’smajor parkways named after him.

GQ named the former San Fran-cisco 49ers quarterback its Citizenof the Year for starting the protestthat has become a movement withinthe NFL.

“He’s been vilified by millions, andlocked out of the NFL—all becausehe took a knee to protest police bru-tality,” GQ wrote. “Colin Kaeper-nick’s determined stand puts him inrare company in sports history:Muhammad Ali, Jackie Robinson—athletes who risked everything tomake a difference.”

Knowingly or not, Kaepernick’sstance jeopardized his NFL careerand his earning potential as a pro-fessional football player. Despitethis, he has dedicated $1 million ofhis own money to charity.

Kaepernick first knelt during thenational anthem at a preseasongame last year to protest mistreat-ment of Black Americans, particu-larly by police.

The protests grew throughout lastseason and this one. Many playersfrom the NFL’s 32 teams have sup-ported him, causing team owners,officials and their public relationsstaff and departments to addressthe issues presented.

Protests have even spread toother sports and enticed the presi-dent of the United States to get in-volved, which inflamed the issueeven more.
