I have been involved in 0 conversations the last 2 years involving the NBA and I see literally zero NBA gear being worn. I hear and am involved in NFL and MLB conversations regularly and see fear from both leagues daily.

Probably an age thing and a location thing. KC has no team. I've had many of conversations with people in their 20s and 30s about the NBA (even in KC) however for some reason people in their 50s and 60s have a strange hatred about the NBA except for the Jordan days. I get it. Its rooted in different political ideology. I just like basketball and I remove myself from any politics of it. Most people increasingly are not able to do that. Thats why they hate womens soccer and the nba. Its why others hate Nascar. It is what it is. Wish it would change.
