I haven't watched this series all that much, but to the extent I have I've noticed something that I've commented on before, namely that the black players of the '50s, '60s and into the '70s are on average much better spoken and seemingly of bettercharacter than the black footballplayers of today.
The earlier black players were for the most part brought up pre-"Great Society," LBJ's massive expansion of the fedgov that decimated the black family and turned black urban areas into matriarchies totally dependent on the government (more specifically, handouts, including "rewards" for having illegitimate children,paid for by the taxpayers).
The laughingly called "Great Society" was an important part of the Permanent Cultural Marxist Revolution unleashed by the Washington/New York/Hollywood Axis in the mid to late 1960s. One of the most obvious present day manifestations of its many negative affects is"modern" black athletes, many if not most of whom would be in prison in pre-Cultural Marxist America if they tried pulling the same things they routinely get away with now.
But of course, in the U.S., the "solution" to obvious problems is always to inflict ever greater doses of the poisons that caused the problems in the first place. Anyone who points out that the "multiculturalism" and "multiracialism" pushed non-stop 24/7/365 is destroying the country is demonized. Thus, the endless pandering to black pathologies and dysfunction rather than permitting honest discussion on this and so many other vital issues.
