It's just so typical that women are thrust into jobs for which they aren't the best choice, just as is the case for any other kind of affirmative action.
If a white man can do the job better -- and in nearly every instance, he can -- and you state as much, you are nothing less than a Nazi.
Only White [males] are expected to have any kind of sense of humor about themselves. Hence, it's nearly always some fat, pasty White guy on TV playing the nerd/loser/virgin/homo/limpwrist/dumbblonde/step-n'-fetchit/moron whose stupidity can only be tamed by the noble Negro or wise, condescending, frigid female.
"Haha, fat white guy has no rhythm!" That's so funny!
And yeah - ALL the rapists and other criminals on those police shows are White. You know, just like in real life! Where a wise Black detective or woman psychic saves the day...
Back to football, though -- doesn't the public find it the least bit odd, that week in, week out, White players are clearly capable of playing at the highest levels, yet they are dismissed as athletically the equivalent of the Eloi?
It must be pretty hard for the PTB to convince people that what they're seeing isn't real, or at least isn't really important.
Judging by how stupid and easily manipulated the average person is, maybe it's not that hard, really.
