Brooklyn Nets suspend Kyrie Irving for at least five games over his "failure to disavow antisemitism" following Twitter controversy

It got closer to tee off so I went to find my cart and bag and partner. I noticed that they clearly didn't have my name on the cart and since I was alone they paired me up with the lawyer, which was fine. Apparently I took "Nick Van Excel"'s spot (it's Van Exel for those who watched NBA).
The guy came up to me again asking if I would golf with him and then called me Nick repeatedly. So of course, I told the guys I was golfing with who doubled over laughing.
I set my bag down and looked for registration inside the clubhouse. Before I could head upstairs to the table, a man stopped me with his wife. They had a Canon digital camera. I thought they wanted me to take their picture.
As it turns out, he thought I was a professional athlete and before I knew it he was hugging me and his wife snapped a photo.
I'm not a professional athlete.
@AirRation @th3j35t3r the NAACP did sue Eastpointe, which also borders Detroit, and won. Residents vs. tickets written was legit flipped and was all against PoC.
@th3j35t3r @AirRation It was disheartening to say the least to tell the African American businessman in a suit that the cop wouldn't talk with him before they went into the courtroom over his <checks notes> 5 miles per hour over the speed limit ticket, in which the cop dropped the N word.
@AirRation @th3j35t3r I worked at a court that borders Detroit where some cops were really racist. They had an acronym written on the back of tickets that specifically noted it was a PoC in the city after dark. It was unreal.
@th3j35t3r Interesante... Does it accept Puerto Rican banks?
@missmesss75 Gracias!
@AirRation Gracias!
@Minholkin Well, I love living in Puerto Rico that's for sure. We throw out corrupt Governors and the people are truly the greatest part of living here. How are you?
@Minholkin I think the biggest reason we love it here and wanted to move here was the people. Puerto Ricans are incredibly friendly and generous and kind.
@Minholkin Even better view as they finished the rooftop. They hosted a wedding there last year. I'll post some pics here tomorrow.
@Minholkin Business-wise I need to submit the rest of my documents for Tax Act 20 and 22, but I have everything except a bank account down here. Will do that next week then enjoy the people, weather and ocean. Although I have to say as someone who speaks some Spanish they've been nothing but accommodating to my poor Spanish grammar.
