Lavar Ball vs. The Mis-Education System!

Alright man, peace. So, I made big news last week when LaVar Ball stated that he was going to take his son out of public high school. The public high school that his son currently attends is at Chino Hills. The son in question being LaMelo Ball. On camera right here, let's see what they have to say.

Of course, I'm gonna chime in because he's not a fan of the basketball coach. She wrote, "The Ball kids are talented, no question, and their father has made them a nationwide brand. But there is more to life than basketball, and there's more to them than basketball." I wonder how she would know. Um, I mean, he only has experience with them from birth all the way up to now. The experience that Nancy Armour has with the Ball sons is what she sees on television. But as normal with a super liberal female, she feels like she could tell a man what he should be doing and how he should be thinking.

Now, why is she saying that? In the American school system, people are inundated with this jargon about how you need to go to school to develop social skills. It seems to me that the only thing that these children are developing is a lack of self-esteem and a terrible self-image by having to interact with other children who have the same self-image and self-esteem issues. People basically just go to school to learn how to live comparatively, to say, "Well, my clothes are better than yours," or when they get a certain age, "The car I'm driving is nicer than yours," or "I have a finer girlfriend than what you have." There's very little accentuation on actual learning. Do you agree with Nancy? Absolutely not. Emphatically disagree with her. I respect the work. I respect the work that both her and Christine just... yeah, well, you have to say that because you have to kowtow to a couple of feminazi journalists.

For those who don't know this character of Nancy Armour, she has a history of making very super liberal, inflammatory observations for the sake of getting attention. She basically said that Tom Brady should publicly disavow Donald Trump because she was offended by Donald Trump. She said that, um, that that the final force to be moved out of Indiana or Indianapolis because of a religious law that was passed in Indiana. You know, she's another one of these broads who's just an agent of chaos with with a typewriter, a part of me, with a laptop.

The reason why I frantically disagree with this is because of the examples that she used. She brought up Todd Marinovich and what he went through because of his father, Bob, and how fixated he was on his son. So he monitored everything about his son, brought in specialists, had him through a regimented training program, and, you know, since birth, for crying out loud. Last time I checked, LaMelo was 16 years old. So he's been going to elementary, junior high school, and high school. And so because of this particular coach at this particular program, you know, whether it's his son having a year left at the high school level, he's decided to go this Rodman. You can disagree or agree with that all you want to. I actually come and disagree with it. I don't think it's the wisest move to make, and I certainly am on the record saying that I don't like the way that LaVar Ball has called out the administration or the coach.

Well, of course, because you're sheep. Look, I'm not here to tell people what to do with their children in regards to whether or not you put them in conventional school systems or education systems, or you decide to homeschool them. That's your business. What I will say is that, and this is something that that I heard Shannon Sharpe say, and I 100% agree: If you watch the ESPN Spelling Bee, almost every last one of those children that you see in the spelling bee are homeschooled. Most of your top national scholars are homeschooled. Okay? What most of these schools are are just learning centers or reprogramming centers to humanism or so, or socialism in the school system. And as you know, it's something that they started back in the 1800s under a man named Robert Owen. Robert Owen was the main inspiration behind the, you know, the propaganda that's taught in the school system today. But, you know, let me let him continue on.

"Is the worst sports parent? Are you kidding me? The worst. Todd Marinovich had a drug problem. LaMelo Ball has a problem? LaMelo Ball? I'm not, I'm not sure about that. I haven't heard anything like that. Your son is the number two player in the NBA, drafted number two overall pick. Let's also take it to a counter." Yeah, but they don't care about that stuff. Stephen A., um, LaVar Ball is, uh, you know, he's a source of of anger for the liberal women because they can sense his energy. His energy is that he's not going to demean or diminish himself for them. He's not going to bow down to them to make them feel strong. This is why you've seen a lot of these super liberal females, Christine, Amy, Leah, or Jamel, come out against him. This is why it's an energy that emanates from him. Also that that, you know, that big Sasquatch Sauer, Spain, they're always targeting him because, once again, when you are a so-called black man and you're not a conformist, um, they are going to try to take your head off. When it comes to the super liberals, once again, the black man is at the bottom of the totem pole. If he does not toe the line, they will attack him even worse than the so-called conservatives will. How professionally they go about trying to do what it is that they want to do. He might be a bit obnoxious. It's not ideal, and I'm certainly not here to try to defend..."

"Oh, yeah, yeah. Unlike you, right? Because we know you're not eccentric. We know you're not, you never go out of bounds, right? Stephen A.? Okay. As are you. Which are bombast kids and try to maximize whatever it is that's out there. But in the end, to call this, I believe, is excessive. It's beyond the pale, and it was not just that, it's plainly an ad hominem attack on both his manhood and his fatherhood. Okay? But as we know, manhood is open for, open for, is open for attack at all times, particularly black manhood. So-called black manhood. Saying is time will tell. You know why? It always does. And you know, the jury's still out now, isn't it? Is it possible for me to imagine a thirty-four, thirty-one day of that, and one of the Ball kids or several of a couple of them saying, 'Oh, my father was overbearing'? That's not impossible for me to imagine. Yeah, I could see that as well, particularly if their careers don't pan out. You'll normally see kids talk about how their fathers were overbearing if their career doesn't pan out. Floyd Mayweather, I remember on on episodes of 24/7 when he would talk about how his father would beat him if he didn't execute a certain boxing move properly. But I mean, look at him now. So there's only so much he can land based his father for how I was raised. No. And furthermore, it seems to me that the basic disposition is, let's see how this all shakes out. You raise your kids your way, I'll raise my kids my way, and let's see how it all shakes out. And I agree. Here's what we do know. We know that he has one son in the NBA, he has another son at UCLA, and he has a third son that's being homeschooled. And to be quite frank with you, the average person who goes through conventional education in America does not know [ __ ] all. Right? Ask them a question, they do not know [ __ ] particularly the ones that have only gone to high school. It's amazing how awfully uninformed, misinformed, or disinformed people are here in America that have gone through the alleged school system, which, as I've stated, are just training grounds for socialism and humanism. That's all they are. Out in the end, your values don't have to line up precisely with mine. We can disagree about real important values to us in fundamental ways and still respect another parent's right, you know, right to raise their kids the way they see fit."

"Oh, yeah. As long as it's liberal. All right. We know that in regards to yourself, you will attack somebody if they have a, if they have a, you know, a disengagement from what you would do to be common sensibilities. No. And you always said the same thing. That's about right versus wrong. It's about good versus bad. That's the normal liberal attack on sensibilities that are that are described from theirs. So I disagree. And I also don't think the evidence points to it. I like both of your conclusions. I just don't like your arguments whatsoever. Let me tell you what I mean by that. The worst sports parents, by the way, the ones at first of all, in my ranking of worst sports parents, are the ones that never go about acknowledging their kids, who don't actually parent their kids. Your rebuttal could be, they're not actually sports dads, they're not actually sports parents, they're just, they're just fathers. They just created this human being. That's the number one. And by the way, there are sports examples of that left and right. That's the number one in abandoning the children, essentially, not being a part of their life. Yes, in some cases, yeah, it's even worse, not even acknowledging their existence or denying their existence. And it's not hard to come up with those examples. So that's number one on my list. Number two were those that actually steal from their kids. There's a, there's an unfortunate, I do it, that fortunately, I believe that Bernie Kosar, for an example, has had this situation where his dad helped manage his career and ended up actually stealing from the money he made in it. Yes, yes, I remember that in his career. So that would be number two. But number three, not sixth, even a, this is where I disagree with you, are these people that engineer their children to be professional athletes to add to a, what's the word we're gonna have to search for here, detrimental, dangerous way. You put out the Marva Renovich engineered Todd by what he ate, the specialists he brought in to train them, the age he started. The truth is, it looks like LaVar is doing all the same things on that front. Maybe it will turn out differently. Maybe they won't have drug problems the way the Todd Marinovich has. But that's where I come to a problem with you. You don't reverse-engineer it. You don't go, 'Let's just see if this all works out.' Does it mean Mathers brought up that would mean 16 years of age? In other words, it that would have you have to clear that it doesn't compare to somebody like Marina visions doing from the tonic."

"I love man. III personally think that certain people are just predisposed to have the weakness of drug dependency. I don't believe that it's necessarily how you were raised. I just think there's certain people are just predisposed to lean on chemical, you know, chemical substance abuse. You have a guy like Todd Marinovich, who was raised by a dad who, you know, put him through all those rigors, and he leaned on drugs for for succor, for support. And you have a guy like that, Gooden, whose father was not really that involved in his baseball upbringing. His father did kind of guide him into baseball, but he was nowhere near as involved as Tom and Renovich. And, you know, Doc Gooden can stay away from the pipe even to this day, allegedly."

"Has been another would-be frat knives with kids they've gone. Yeah, this stuff is so ridiculous. A lot of these high schools are just gang recruitment centers, just dating services. People are more concerned with, you know, who got the fattest ass and who they gonna knock down next, and they are actually learning anything. If they actually can't learn anything because most of the teachers are poor."

"Well, like I was saying before, you know, the the modern-day public school system is based off of a framework that was really inspired by a man named Robert Owen. He was a leader of a socialist movement started over in Scotland. He was, well, she was a Welshman, started over in Scotland. He came over here to America in the 1820s, and he opened up a school in Indiana to teach children. I mean, to give him this much credit, he did fight for the rights of child workers, but and he lowered the, he lowered the workday to eight hours. But his, his true game, his true game, a part of me, his true goal and his true aim was to promote atheism and socialism in schools. All right? He was what was known as an Enlightenment thinker, and he brought a lot of that over here to America in the early 1800s. Thomas Jefferson actually was trying to implement a public, a public school system in the late seventeen hundreds, but the people didn't go for it because at that time, unless you had a very large city, the people really did not want to have to bring their children to schools. They normally taught them from home, and they normally used the Bible as a main textbook. All right? Back then, the children really just needed to know how to how to read and write to a degree, but they wanted them to understand a lot of the stories in the scriptures. And basically, they would normally put under an apprenticeship by their father. So whatever their father did, what the child was taught. I'm not saying that the ends justify the means. What I'm saying is, we're trying to extrapolate from what we understand of them publicly, the way he's raising them at home. It is possible to bring in nutritionists and do all those kind of things for your kids and also have them know you love them, yet spend time with them, impart important, those new ideas are not mutually exclusive."

"No, this chick Molly is so out of control. Like, they just let her chime in whenever. Nobody puts on this show to hear what Molly Karen thinks. Nobody. And this is why I respect the order of the Skip and Shannon show much more because the chick Joy Taylor stays in her place until Skip allows her to speak, then she normally makes cogent points at the very end. All right? This day, they allowed this chick Molly, and this shows you how intimidated Stephen A. is by the the structure of ESPN, knowing that he works at a super liberal network. He wants to gain points with the bosses by allowing Molly Karen Beauty to be reckless and speak willy-nilly. And it's one of the reasons why First Take is currently an inferior product to what you're getting from this Skip and Shannon show, Undisputed."

"I agree with that. You really don't know or and can't tell how detrimental LaVar Ball's tactics of raising his children are until down the line. From what we see right now, it's a plus, plus. That's the bottom line. And he has put his children through an apprenticeship, as I stated previous. That's what fathers did. You had a skill that she taught your sons. The main skill that LaVar Ball seems to be teaching his sons is the skill of the mindset of entrepreneurship and the mindset of being an alpha male. All right? Being a creative thinker. These are things that most children are not taught today because the parents just pretty much just stormed into the public school system and say, 'Look, we'll let your teachers teach you.' For the, for all intents and purposes, these teachers are the new parents, as well as the children that they're going to school with, who would normally tend to impose their sensibilities onto your child. This is why you'll notice that homeschooled children tend to excel more. They concentrate more on what they're being taught."

"Is he on board with it? Because that's a huge factor in this as well. Not that huge a factor. At the end of the day, he's 16. He's living under his father's roof. He must do what his father says and he must follow what his father says. It's best. All right? Once again, we live in a society where we're told that the, that the mindset of a 16-year-old should be equivalent to their parent. Well, if you want LaMelo to be the deciding factor in what he does, then he should be able to live on his own. That's the bottom line. If LaVar Ball is the one providing a roof over his head and food and stomach, at the end of the day, LaVar Ball is the deciding factor in what happens to LaMelo Ball because nobody cares about him and loves him as much as LaVar does. Certainly none of you at that table do, or Nancy Armour."

"For me, I take great exception to the, you know, what the message that that's being brought across in this article. As a father, that I have to, I have two kids that are being homeschooled. I think that's a great thing. So do I. I mean, if you can do it, great. I think there's nothing wrong with spending too much time and trying to mold your kids in the way that you want to do it. That's called parenting to me. Um, if, if you have a kid that's the number two draft pick, and then in the NBA, another one, there's so, first went to UCLA, then another one that has a commitment to UCLA, I think you're doing okay. I agree. There's no way that you could be the worst sports parent. What she really means is the worst black male parent that's on television right now. That's her, that's her real problem."

"Well, let's, let's pump our brakes. I believe Earl Woods and Richard Williams are both MK handlers, but that's neither here nor there. I know, I know that Earl Woods is a handler, military background, and the things that the weight of Tiger Woods said that he was raised having a, having a golf club glued to his hand and things of that nature, appearing on Johnny Carson at three years old. I have no doubt that Tiger Woods is a monarch athlete, and Earl Woods was his handler. As a matter of fact, when he died, those who, those of you who remember, they had that notorious commercial in black and white with Tiger Woods just looking at the camera, and you can hear the voice of his father reverberating in his head. What was that meant to denote? That was meant to denote that Earl Woods is his handler, or was his handler. It was very soon after that the Tiger had his breakdown. All right? In regards to Richard Williams, look, man, I'm already on record as saying I believe both them, both the Williams sisters, a bunch, a couple of [ __ ], it is what it is. People can get mad. Someone say, 'What is the worst?' Look at Max. Max is already shaking. It's a go ahead. Damn, you tell us how you feel. Go ahead. I'm liberal. I hear ya. I'm not gonna see you say that the, you know, the writer of the article is anything like that. There's always a perception out there, their attempted narrow, you know, that we, you know, that the black community don't have a lot of black, you know, farms is out there. And for you to come on and say that LaVar Ball is the worst, is the worst sports dad ever. What do we say? Where I know, we're saying anytime that a so-called black man shows any type of authority, any type of suzerainty over his family, he's going to be castigated. We already know that, right? This is why I've been telling brothers since LaVar Ball popped up on the scene, what would know what the real skinny was? Because when he, when he first popped up, a lot of so-called black men were against him. Why is that? Because a lot of so-called black men, quite frankly, think emotions like women do, and they respond to somebody who has an authoritative mentality, and they take it as an offense. You know, like, who is this guy to think like this? And, you know, I saw that very vividly when LaVar Ball first came on the scene. I only made a video about him in the first place because brothers kept asking me to talk about him because I already saw in the spirit what, you know, you know, what the general consensus was in regards to how people felt about LaVar Ball. And let me say this, over time, the so-called black community has come to warm to LaVar because of, you know, the verbal altercation that he had with, he raped me, Leah. You know, my thing is, you should have saw that already. But it didn't surprise me because the so-called black father is not welcome in the average black household. Okay? He's not welcome there. So this is why I stated before that there was a method to his madness. When he got, what that white woman, unfortunately, unfortunately, he had to do that behind it. Matters. The context behind it matters. What's your motivation for saying all of these things? Because, you know, what Richard Williams did, a lot of things with Serena and Venus that people had questions. And look how they turned out. You know, with John Elway, and then want to play for this particular team, and his family was involved. When the paint, when Eli Manning did want to go to the Giants, yeah, I'm sorry, he didn't want to go to San Diego, and instead, and and manipulating this boat to the Giants, stuff like that happens. You don't, those are great examples here. Individuals outside of the black community being castigated because of decisions that they make. His father's very open and very off day. You, that's what I swear mistake. You guys are making is reverse engineering it. You're saying, if it turns out that the kid ends up a professional athlete, the parenting was good. Nobody's saying that at all. Um, as of right now, LaVar Ball's parenting is not up for referendum at all, other than for people who are offended by the fact that he speaks the way that he speaks and that he's making decisions over his children. Once again, the children of America, seeing as everybody here is a dead slave, the children of America are viewed as the property of the state. Okay? So whenever anybody shows any form of authority and and suzerainty over their children, no, especially if you're black, people get offended. If LaVar Ball was East Indian or Caucasian or Asian, nobody would bat an eyelash because they would trust that he was making the right decision for so-called black men and say that he's going to homeschool his child, automatically they feel like he's incapable of teaching his child anything. What are they really saying? What are they implying by looking at you with such scrutiny for one, to homeschool your child? They're saying you have nothing to teach him because you don't know anything because you have no culture. That's really what they're saying, and that's why they're so offended at his intention to homeschool his child. All right? Like I said, you get to meet you person, go, you'd look up a man named Robert Owen. He's the one who really started the socialist, the socialist public school system because that's what it is. You can also look up a guy named Horace Mann. Horace Mann was is known as the father of the public school system. He also was an atheist, a socialist. The list goes on and on. Yes, but Tiger Woods said his first memory was Earl with like gluing a club into his hand. On the whole, real quick, I said this is for some reason, whatever reason, Stephen A., it's rants and tennis, and it's not just a black-white thing. It's not just Richard. Boy, this Jennifer Capriati, yeah, and beyond that. Earl Woods also trained his son in military tactics and military techniques. I believe that Tiger Woods, Tiger Woods used to take a lot of the same drugs that soldiers took before they went to battle before he went into, he went into many of his tournaments. Tiger Woods was always keyed up. He was a guy who was born and literally born and bred to be a champion golfer. Earl Woods, as I probably already stated, come from, look like a military background, Green Beret. He was bringing Tiger, Tiger Woods to the golf course literally from birth. By three years old, had him golfing, had him on a Johnny Carson show. This was all predictive programming. They'll oftentimes bring monarch children to certain venues just to show the people that, no, this is what they're grooming. All right? This is why you have certain affluent entertainers today who came up through shows like Star Search, people like Usher and Christina Aguilera, Britney Spears, Justin Timberlake, Martin Lawrence, people who were raised under the programming. All right? For those who don't know, Mark Lawrence was born on an army base. Okay? Anyway, talking, but you're not getting my point. I'm not challenging the facts of what you just said. I'm saying you don't hear about it like that. Let me say this again. You have no problem with the headline of this article. It's a right. But the sentiment of the headline is in her article. It really doesn't matter. She wrote the headline or not. But where I know what that, what that's meant to be, this is a concerted attempt to levy an attack. They basically declared a cold read on LaVar Ball, especially since the, you know, since his interaction with Christine, Amy, Leah, he showed that he's out of control and that he's going to say whatever he wants and he's not going to bow down to the female power structure on the liberal side."

"Yeah, we need to come right back to this. All right, so now we're gonna pick up what we left off in this roundtable discussion on LaVar Ball putting his son or taking his son out of the socialist humanist public school system and deciding to to homeschool his son. This article right here, Steve, now you were addressing the headline. 'It's official, Ball is the worst sports parent.' And let me say this before they start, once again, please understand, when you have a child in this society, as I've stated before, all people in this society under the 14th Amendment are basically dead slaves. You're basically the collateral to the debt that is owed to the international bankers through the Federal Reserve. Your children are seen as property of the state. This is why it's a major red flag, particularly if a so-called black family were to take their children out of public school and decide to homeschool them, because that means that your children are not being properly indoctrinated. The point of public school now is not to teach your children, it is to indoctrinate them. Meaning what? To normalize homosexuality, lesbianism, transgenderism, that's the point. Atheism, things like Darwinism. Okay? This is what they want to make sure that your children are inundated with. This is why your children go to these schools and they come out bugged out. And if there's, if they're fit enough, then they can go to the groves, that being the university college system and attain their baccalaureate, meaning they, they can be declared wizards under the order instruction of Bacchus and his father, Cush, okay, and then in the mother Semiramis. That's basically all this society is about. I'm trying to say that I'm quite sure that there are a number of incidences that have been chronicled. I mean, I'm a sports reporter for over 20 years, get over 25 years. I get all of that. What I'm trying to say is, piggybacking off of Damien Woody's point, no, it's not about race per se. And I'm certainly, like Damien, not accusing be her ankle. Um, well, I'm not, I'm not going to overtly accuse her of that being her angle, of her being an over-racer. But you have what's called racialism, and that's basically how people subconsciously think. Okay? That does have to be addressed. I'm not really considering the way, I'm not really concerned with trying to change how people think or what they say. I just think that it needs to be noted so that, you know, brothers understand how to address these, these sentiments when, know, when they're when they're brought to your attention. Okay? Because a lot of people are not in their mind, they're not racist. They don't really believe that, but, you know, things resonate before them. Know, if they get on that elevator, if a woman gets on an elevator with a black man, of course, she might pull her purse closer than she would if she was on the elevator with an Asian man, right? Because imagery resonates. The mind thinks associatively. All right? That's just how our brains work. So, you know, when a female like Nancy Armour sees a LaVar Ball, she sees a big black man, she naturally thinks incompetence, particularly scholastically. Who are you to think that you can teach your child anything? That's why we have the school system for. You're not qualified. If he was East Indian or Asian, I'm sure that she would not bat an eyelash. Black fathers are depicted in the eyes of the American public to say something like that about this man. It's incredibly incent, the area when we consider some of the things that have been chronicled about some of those fathers out there who, who deserve the criticism that they receive. To go this fall with this man, I think it appears excessive."

"Mara Buck, well, Stephen A., remember you are the one who agreed with Sarah Spain when she made her, you know, statement. So are you disagreeing with Nancy Armour because she's wrong? Or are you disagreeing with her because she doesn't work at ESPN? That's the real question. Because Sarah Spain is something very similar, if not even more incendiary. I did a video about that also. Headline is wrong. I think her conclusion is wrong. I don't think he's the worst sports father ever. Now, I laid out those examples earlier that I think would easily surpass him. But I don't think that he also gets a pass, or that she should not acknowledge it if she believes that, if she believes it. I'll beat her on the merits. I have got better examples. But if she thinks that she shouldn't neglect to say it because of sensitivity regarding black fathers, if she thinks regardless of his skin color that he is the worst father in sports, then she shouldn't sit there. No."

"Well, I'm worried about who's going to submit it about race. If she thinks it is. Well, I agree with that. She shouldn't bite her tongue if that's how she really feels. But then, at the same time, she has to be prepared for the, you know, the kind of response, you know, the volley back. It is what it is about that. I think she has an obligation to take the depiction of black fathers into consideration when you say something like that. Not necessarily. It depends on what her whims are. Once again, on the liberal totem pole, she's higher than you, Stephen A. So, no, no, she does not have to defer to your feelings. Now, you have to defer to hers because on that totem pole, particularly since you're a corporate [ __ ], a corporate asset, you do have to acknowledge that she trumps you, even if you're more famous than her, even if, even if you make more money than her, she still trumps you on that totem pole, bro."

"Eunha, as as Skip would say, you know, it, and I know that issue may address that sensitivity, you know, just acknowledging that there may be sensitivity about this. Perhaps I want to say something. Oh, that's that, that's a good little comment by Max. Um, she can elicit her, her statement, but she should also state that, you know, she should also acknowledge that, you know, there is some, there is a stereotype of our black fathers that she's aware of, just to show that she's not totally going off the rails, per se. The other day, I do it frequently when this topic of fathers comes up, her parents whose kids are actually really special in some area. I think of the movie Searching for Bobby Fischer, which was about a chess prodigy named Josh Waitzkin. And he thought that his chess teacher thought maybe he could be, you know, the next Bobby Fischer, the next great chess genius. And basically, the film is about the parents. At a certain point, the father thinking, 'Okay, in order to do that, he cannot lead a normal life because it is not possible to become the best in the world.' Absolutely. And I mentioned this already. It is not possible to become the best in the world at anything and live a conventional life. When you look at most, and really almost every person who has excelled in their field of endeavor, they grew up loners, they grew up outcasts, and they grew in what will be considered a recluse lifestyle. All right? You cannot blend excellence with with with regular. It just doesn't work because the regular will always try to pull the excellent down so that they can become as average as everybody else. That's why in the school system, at least they used to do it, they would take the smart kids and they will put them in one program, the average kids in another program, and the, you know, the kids who are a bit slow in their own program because if you mix all three together, what will the slow kids and the average kids do? They will try to impede the progress of the kids that excel. Does that mean they chose that he wouldn't be the next Bobby Fischer? He'd be a happy, well-adjusted kid. But does that mean if they chose, no, he will be the next Bobby Fischer? That's the wrong choice. Is it not okay to sacrifice a normal childhood or even in some cases, life, in the pursuit of greatness? That's what the pursuit of happiness is about. Your own private interest, the way you define it. And that includes a parent with a child. What Muhammad Ali's health comes down to the same issue. All these dangers at boxing, he sacrificed his health, you could argue, on the altar of greatness."

"Well, I would agree with that to a degree. I believe that he sacrificed his health because he started to worship himself as a boxing God. All right? Now, you know, I've stated already that there is a sentiment, and a sentiment that I also adhere to, that his disease was accelerated due to being poisoned, most likely by some government agency. Wouldn't shock me at all. Allegedly, his his camp in Deer Lake was poisoned, or the air vents were poisoned. I've heard things from his house was poisoned, too. His camp at Deer Lake was poisoned. It really doesn't matter either way. I have little doubt that, you know, that there was some chicanery going on with Ali and his illness. But he was going to get ill anyway. You know, he took so many flush shots from so many powerful punchers. But that's neither here nor there. I do believe that his overall downfall was what the ancient Greeks called hubris, his pride, and the fact that he really started to worship himself as a boxing God. He didn't take certain things into account. And, you know, it was, it really was his downfall. But that's neither here nor there. Your children, the way you raise them, if you think your child is special in an area, even if it's tennis, you know, they're not going to lead a normal life. But they have the chance to be the best in the world. And does that also mean that if they're not the best in the world, but you've taken that path, you failed? Is the, I'm not reverse engineering it. I'm saying a parent and a child have the right to pursue greatness, even if it means sacrificing areas that means they're not going to lead normal lives."

"Max, it, listen, I agree with you 100%. Here's the funny thing is, we're in the era of everyone of us complain about participation trophies. Here's a guy that trained his kids. These trainers could be the antithesis of that. Well, that's that's really the problem. Um, the so-called black men, once again, he's coming during his children's life. People don't like that because, once again, they feel like he is incompetent. And I always go back to this theme. So-called black man, people feel like you're incompetent. Why? Because they see that you're constantly trying to blend in with them as opposed to do your own thing. Now, LaVar Ball has to suffer the backlash of the stereotype towards black men, but he doesn't care. That's what I like about him. He doesn't care. All right? He does his own thing. And, you know, that's why I talk about the so-called school, the school system is really, what it really has been constructed to inundate the children with a lot of propaganda, that socialist/humanist. For those of you who don't know, humanism is basically another way of saying Enlightenment thinking, aka Luciferianism, the worship of of mankind, the worship of himself. They believed that a man can explain everything, the origins for everything. All right? This is what is going on in the school system. And it started back in the 1800s. The guy named Robert Owen. You have another man named Horace Mann, who was considered the father of the, of the American school system. I mean, this is a guy who came out and said, if I remember correctly, that God must be replaced. Is what Horace Mann said. Nothing. You have a guy named John Dewey. I mentioned him in a previous video. He was not particularly known for teaching students, but he was known for teaching teachers. He came out of the University of Chicago, and he was teaching at Columbia University. He would teach prospective teachers and instructors, and he taught them a lot of socialist philosophies and humanist philosophies, so they would go out and they're teaching and dispense those teachings to students. All right? He was also involved with teaching the Rockefeller grandsons, okay, Nelson and David, and I'm trying to remember the other two guys' names. John D. had one son, and then his sons with the resources and everything to try to, to try to, the talent and well, that's why Skip Bayless says that he wishes that LaVar Ball was his dad. A lot of these people, worse than the Ball, Ball was their dad, to be quite frank with you. You can tell. I just don't understand just bad someone for just investing in their children. You're absolutely right. And on that point, we all agree. He's not the worst sports father in America. But it also doesn't mean that somehow he's above criticism. And when I've been on this program, I think minnows, look, I don't think that anybody's above criticism. But I think that when your criticism is clearly couched in a personal agenda, I think that you cannot get frustrated when people call you out. I also think that you have to expect people to counter it. When, when clearly LaVar Ball's tactics have led to success or quit various measures of sports and teaching his kids, if you don't like the rules, you can walk away. These are not good life lessons. These will have detrimental effects about your views towards authority, that's, and rules, and who you are."

"Last point back to you, Stephen A. On one thought, you should factor in the way you say something could be perceived. I'm really surprised to hear that from you. You know, and this is a disconnect often that we have on this program, the three of us. And I don't know how many times this guy's gonna tell Stephen A. that he surprises something that Stephen A. has said or a certain sentiment that Stephen has put forth. Stephen A. has shown that he's going to say and do what he wants as long as he's not offending anybody higher up on the totem pole. I am not going to shy away from the truth. And I think Nancy Armour is wrong in what she thinks is true here. But I'm not going to shy away from a truth because I'm concerned about how it's gonna play or how sensitive people will be about it. I'm gonna give you the truth. If I'm wrong, I'm wrong. If I'm right, I'm right. And well, you're gonna get people your truth. All right? If you're giving people that truth, you're not gonna be wrong. When you're giving, when you give people your truth, you could be wrong. All right? There's no such thing as being wrong if you're speaking the truth. But when you're speaking your truth, you can be incorrect. Part Stephen A., I think the same thing about you. You do that as well. So I'm surprised for you to say, 'No, no, she should be able to the public sensitive.' If you're surprised because you don't pay attention enough. Oh, come on. You don't sit there and go, 'How will this play?' It doesn't excuse me. It's not about how it will play. It's about the set, the sensitivity of a particular issue. How I speak about games and gods performing on a court of play or to feel to play or whatever is entirely different than how I would speak about them as a parent."

"Point taken. And a good point at that. The fact of the matter is, I don't know this woman. With all due respect, you're a white woman. You don't know about black fathers. Yet, not to the degree that I do. I'm a father. He's a father. I think I know something about it. I think well, she would know anything about fathers because she's, she's not a man, so she's not really qualified to speak on the subject at all. If a man was to write an article saying that LeBron James's mother is the worst sports mom in history, you know, everybody would tear him down. Black fathers are a trade. I'm not saying that she's completely ignorant, that she knows. I don't know who our friends are. But in a circle attempt, that's not what I mean by making that statement. I'm simply saying that you are not a black man. You are not a, you are not a part of a black family. She's addressing fatherhood. You're the one adding black because he is a black man who is a father. And we live in a society where black fathers are religiously integrated, absolutely, and held to a different standard. There's no doubt about that. I don't believe that the standards for fatherhood for so-called black men has been lowered. I think that there is no standard at all. People do not know what to expect from the so-called black men because they don't know what the so-called black culture is. They really don't know what's expected of a so-called black man to even establish a standard. To many occasions, we see black fathers depicted in a way that we find offensive, that we think is erroneous and inaccurate, and not merely that, it doesn't even come close to being as factual. No, sir. We know that there are multiple Americas. There are multiple realities. There is a reality for not just for people based on race, but for people based on their subculture, where they're brought up, how they're brought up, things of that nature. So there's, there's even different black realities. There's a reality for so-called black people who were raised a certain way, and then there's other realities for so-called blacks who were raised in a gang culture, and a single-mother culture, in a two-parent culture, in a father-dominated culture, so on and so forth."

"Excuse me, hold on. Excuse me. I'm here to your question. Yes. You really, really think that there are some things that are not a black truth? Because excuse me, my truth in terms of my upbringing, my culture, what I'm exposed to, and what I have to deal with walking out in the streets every day is entirely different."

"Will Kate, just changed it. See, once again, this is why this magical, mystical conversation that uh liberal blacks are looking for. This is why we'll never bear any fruit because this is what it descends to. 'How dare you offend me?' And then the other person says, 'I dare you offend me.' And then they just go back and forth on how each other."

"Okay, you think I think what you're really saying here, even a, actually can be reconciled with your position, which is that the reason you think you could beat her in this argument, that he's not the worst sports parent, is wrong, is because the standard for a black father here seems to be a lot higher. In other words, he has to do much less wrong to be called, without any evidence in, yet to be called the worst sports parent ever."

"Well, I would say that LaVar Ball, or so-called black fathers in general, are held to a standard where, once again, people don't even know really know what to expect from them because the expectation is, is, is that the so-called black man is a failure and a poor leader. And the reason for that, once again, is no culture. There's nothing, the people thought, there's nothing that the black man has to impart unto his children. All right? So now, I also want to include this segment because John Salley has some very intelligent things to say about stopping LaVar Ball. Pulling a 16-year-old high school son out of high school isn't genius, this according to John Salley, former NBA star champion. Is all right. Look, people are talking about this decree. So we asked John Salley. But this is because people are tearing LaVar Ball a new one for this. They're really going after him. John Salley says this is brilliant. And here's why."

"Yeah, I got his own show, brother. Absolutely. All the intelligent people, all the smartest people in the world are homeschooled. Why? Because they have a chance to focus on on, you know, what they need to learn. Like I said, back in the day, people will talk out of the Bible and everything else that they needed to learn. They learned from their father. They were put under an apprenticeship. This is why people were were far better at their craft back then than they are today. The college system is set up to initiate you to the, to the, the lower levels of the Bacchanalian rights and also just to accrue more debt onto your person. That's pretty much it. Absolutely. Morris was right. 16 years old. Nobody said jack."

"Yeah, well, we know why that is. John Salley, he had the complexion for the connection. We know that there's certain sports where it's okay for somebody to be 15 years old. Remember Jennifer Capriati, she was 14, 15 years old. She ended up being a burnout, so she might not be a great example. But, you know, tennis, they allow it because, you know, when you're Caucasian and a wunderkind, it's okay. You know, hockey, baseball, so on and so forth. But we know the reason for that. School focus on their sport and it becomes superstars, right? Boris Becker's perfect example. There's entire sports words, sports culture for these guys to be starting at 14, 15, 16 years old and taking it seriously. If they weren't paying world-class levels, typically you don't have to do that in basketball. But with what LaVar seems to be going for for his sons, maybe you do want to have a kid a little bit earlier. He thinks there's more money, we made a more successful career and a better life if he focuses on training on Melo to be a basketball player, then trying to have him focus to have him learn all the [ __ ] that he's gonna get taught in high school that he's never gonna utilize in real life. Okay? That's what it boils down to. And let me say this before I forget. I mentioned this guy, John Dewey. He's one of the, the main instructors of many of the teachers who promoted humanism and socialism in the school system. He taught the Rockefeller grandchildren. But also, let me say before I forget, he was the president, he's the founder of the American version of the Fabian Society. I mentioned the Fabian Society many videos ago. I can't remember which ones or which one, but the Fabian Society basically was involved with financing the Bolshevik movement under Lenin in Russia that toppled the Tsar. Okay? John Dewey was the President or the founder of the American version of the Fabian Society and actually changed his name. I remember what they changed the name into. I think it was a Intercollegiate some, Intercollegiate, Intercollegiate Socialists, something."

"Anyway, now I'm about to wrap this video up because I'm about done with this."
