NBA Players Sitting, Bubba Wallace, NASCAR Stands Against Racism | 3-Point Stance – Ep 31

Grind City Media’s 3-Point Stance segment is a Skype-styled conversation between 2 friends, with 2 perspectives, on 3 topics from the weekend centered on sports, entertainment and pop-culture presented by MTN Dew. On Episode 31, Meghan Triplett and Jon Roser discuss:

0:15 A growing number of NBA players including Trevor Ariza and Davis Bertans are choosing to to sit out for the rest of the 2019-20 season for a variety reasons. Do you agree with their decisions, given the increasing amount of coronavirus cases, but at the expense of their teams?

6:15 Bubba Wallace, NASCAR’s only black driver and outspoken Black Lives Matter advocate, found an alleged noose in his garage a day before the delayed GIECO 500 race at Talladega. How did you react to the news and what were your thoughts on NASCAR’s response?

10:54 Prior to the GIECO 500, an airplane was seen flying overhead with a Confederate flag and banner that read “Defund NASCAR” in response to the ban on Confederate flags at all events. Meghan Triplett shares her stance on acts of hatred and NASCAR’s statement.
