Caught a little bit of ESPN's lame morning show
"Cold Pizza", and some new guy (don't know his
name) was praising Curtis Martin. He criticized
Monday Night Football for talking too much about
Ricky Wiliams, and should've talked more about
Martin. What?? All they did was talk about Martin.
Then he said how classy Martin is, and to
paraphrase: "you don't need to be like Jeremy
Shockey or Mark Gastineau. You can be classy like
Curtis Martin." Who could believe that it's a
coincidence that he "just so happens" to favorably
compare Martin to two white players, when there are
so many black jerks he could've compared him to.
Owens, Sapp, Keyshawn Johnson, Deion Sanders,
Chad Johnson, crackhead/ whoremonger Lawrence
Taylor, and many, many more, I'm sure.
Also, this reflects the fact that white players who act
black are not respected. Black players like Terrell
Owens are "colorful characters" who are "just trying
to entertain the fans". White players like Shockey
and high-steppin' David Kircus are seen as clowns
and not favored by the media.
But we've all gotten used to these double standards,
haven't we....
