Pigeonhole: Race and Roles

[FootballDad]

I ran across this article while skimming around the web looking for an argument. It's posted on Fannation and is a nice caste-exposing article. It's well written despite the author's constant backpedalling when it might be perceived that he is bashing "affletes". I haven't posted a reply there yet, but I'll get around to it. It might be a good thing for some of our outstanding journalists here at CF to weigh in as well.

Nice find football dad.  The writer certainly exposes many of the truths about the caste system we already know all too well.

College coaches would be put on trial in any other country for this behavior.

Great article. My favorite line was, "Did Jacoby Ellsbury lead the majors with 70 stolen bases because he's really, really crafty?"

For lack of a better forum, since there is no "Semi-Pro" category, this works just as well since this has to do with Race. As soon as I saw this video posted, I knew that an afrolete would be the one to mess up. Check this Las Vegas Cobras YouTube video out, it's a hoot!
