This is old news, but I remember the media playing this down when Keyshawn called Ronde an "Uncle Tom"



I want to say it was Irvin who said that it wasn't offensive at all.
Why was this not a bigger issue? or bigger than what Rush said?



Uncle Tom

The reason, Baer-Arms, is that there is a huge double standard held up by the press against whites. Blacks get a pass on all racial matters because they have been "oppressed' by whites for so long. Since whites were the "opressors" they are not allowed to speak their minds or the truth on such matters. Its a major part of why the Caste System is so entrenched.

Can't say I'm the least bit surprised to see that Johnson has been added to ESPN's ever growing stable of black announcers. Johnson was first hired by ESPNin 2003, after the Bucs wanted him off their roster so badly that they fired him mid-season and ate his salary just to be rid of him.


So "Meshawn" gets rewarded handsomely by the white whores of the Caste media for being a selfish ******* and a racist (his treatment of then-teammate Wayne Chrebet was disgraceful). Only in America. But hey, he's somewhat articulate and it goes without saying that he has a great smile.

This is a good place to insert an excerpt from an old news article. No surprise that ESPN has given him a job.


Snip: Johnson, in a controversial book about his rookie season with the Jets, referred to Chrebet as the "team mascot." In 2000, after Johnson was traded to the Bucs, the flamboyant receiver said matching him against Chrebet would be like comparing a star and a flashlight. A few days later, the flashlight caught the winning touchdown pass to beat Johnson's Bucs.

I heard some local morning radio guys discussing Meshawn's hiring by ESPN today, and their praise was so over the top it was laughable. They all referred to this clown as a "television network's dream," and yes, Don, they mentioned his smile. Am I missing something in the constant refrain about Meshawn being articulate? Compared to who? Michael Irvin? Well, okay. They also said that the contract he signed was similar to the one signed by Tiki Barber, in that it would involve other sports like basketball and non-sports news. Huh? Even for television, the idea of someone with the intellect of a Keyshawn Johnson reporting any kind of news is ridiculous. I guess we can look forward to more of these distasteful hirings in the future, as other "articulate" blacks like T.O., Ray Lewis, Clinton Portis, Mike/ Michael Vick, Corey Dillon, Randy Moss and Meshawn's cousin Chad retire and move on to other lucrative ventures. Kind of makes you wonder why any young white would waste the time and money on attempting to achieve the almost impossible dream of working in the broadcast industry.

his treatment of Chrebet was pure racism. Chrebet is a good guy and was well respected. Johnson came in and was just jealous of him.

This is the current lead story on SI.com's site, replete with a large smiling picture of America's new teddy bear:
Crossing Over
The search for the 'next Charles Barkley' has ended, writes SI.com's Bill Syken, who predicts Keyshawn Johnson will seamlessly morph from colorful wideout to brashly lovable TV analyst.
<DIV ="cnn4pxBpad">- SILVER: Keyshawn born to be a media star
<DIV ="cnn4pxBpad">
<DIV align=center ="cnn4pxBpad">* * * * * * * * * * * * * * *
<DIV ="cnn4pxBpad">
<DIV ="cnn4pxBpad">"Seamlessly morph." That says a lot about how the system works and how effortlessly manipulable the deracinated brain-dead white public is. Look at the difference between the media treatment of John Rocker (entrapped, accused "racist" who will always be despised and demonized) and Johnson, a genuine racist and the epitome of the selfish, hyper-temperamental "modern" athlete.

Really! Why can't John Rocker be "brashly lovable?" Why is Charles Barkley -- who spits on fans -- the model color analyst (npi), whereas Bill Romanowski -- who spat at an opposing player who may have provoked him -- forever an outcast?

And if John Clayton and Shawn Salisbury believe so passionately in affirmative action hiring, why don't THEY give up THEIR jobs to a deserving duo-of-color?
