Royce White: The Truth About the NBA & Mental Health

NBA All-Stars Kevin Love & Demar DeRozan recently went public with their mental health challenges. Here, former NBA player Royce White speaks about the NBA’s approach to mental health, and the gap between the league’s supportive rhetoric and existing reality. Also, we have “Choice Words” about student unrest at Sweet 16 darling Loyola. We also got our weekly “Just Stand Up” and “Sit Down” awards for defensive back and early Colin Kaepernick supporter Eric Reid, and Fox News for their blatant hypocrisy. All that and more on this week’s show.

Can’t fucking stand this cock sucker. I know people with anxiety who deal with it every day and its not like they’re being paid millions to do it.

The Rockets learned their lesson and now the Sixers will have to learn the hard way. I doubt he’ll start 5 D-League games. Scared of planes and too fucking lazy to get on a bus. Philly should have just signed AI and gave him a shot.

Fascinating article on Royce White by Chuck Klosterman. White has some very interesting thoughts on mental health and the detriments to it in society.

"I relate that song with ambition and having a lot of ideas that a lot of people don't vibe with," White says. "Sometimes reform is needed. Sometimes, your teacher ain't right. Your boss ain't right. Sometimes, even as a kid, you might know what's right. That's really what it is. Being ambitious is just following your heart." "It's hard to compare," he says. "But at this point if I had to choose one or the other, I don't know if I could choose basketball. Music is more worldly. It's more effective. It helps more people.
