The Denver Nuggets probably want a do-over on this 'white pride' hat [Updated]
Oh, no, Denver Nuggets. You’re inadvertently selling an item in the official online NBA store marked “white pride.” That’s not a good idea.
Admittedly, this is not a hat for the intolerant person who also loves the Denver Nuggets; it’s just the sort of problem you run into when you sell items that have a designated color that have “pride” as part of the product name. A mistake anyone could make. In fact, by giving us the phrase “white pride slouch,” we found our new favorite pejorative for tubby racists.
Still available, and a steal at twice the price.
What are some of the other prides that the enterprising Nuggets fan can have?
Okay, the Nets one is racist.
UPDATE, 01/08: The NBA has updated the product listing to read: “Men’s adidas Denver Nuggets Pride Slouch Adjustable Hat – White.”
