DEI season 2

[jarredtrapp · 6/10 · 8 August 2023]

I love basketball, I loved season one. It was a great representation of what the youth went through during the pandemic.

Season two so far, not a fan, the DEI and the white Haterade, and all the leftist BS is really starting to rise to the top above the plot, above everything.

I don't think these writers realize that most athletes come from conservative families. Because most of the time athletes don't come from wealthy families, they come from poor/ average families who struggled their whole life to make a better life, and America gave them that opportunity to make that better life. So we find it a little moronic to sit there and try and trash the system that gave everyone the opportunity in the first place.

When your politics undertones rise above the plot to become a theme of the show you've lost 90% of your audience.

Anything to do with DEI is going to get you fired and your show cancelled, and bankrupt the company you work for.

Y'all should have showed up like season 1. This time you didn't. This time you let all the outside noise influence a great story.

That's what's up.

Episode 202

Of course they have found a way to get all of the teammates from Swagger at the same prestigious school together. It is just so unrealistic.

That is a smaller issue though. I am fine with Swagger addressing some social justice and cultural issues along the way, but there is way too much on display tonight. A high school does not need a DE&I officer or whatever role that she got hired for.

The scoring in the basketball scenes did not make sense either. Cedar Cove seemed to turn up the notch, but if you look at the points from period three to period four, they did not end up scoring that much at all.
