I’ve to get this off my chest FANS we do not need to fight other fans that wear different jerseys to support their teams. It’s not only in the @NBA but all major sports and college this is sad a mob jump on kids families parents let show some respect and go cheer the teams on…

Some schools have proms this Saturday. Same day as section track and field meets, playoff games etc. Puts the student athletes, parents, and coaches in a difficult situation. How about scheduling proms in April? So much goes on in May. Why add another stress to so many students?
