Bonds was hit just as hard as Clemens.. and that was without going before Congress. Roger Clemens volunteered to go to the House for the sole purpose of lying to their and our collective faces. He was done in by his enormous ego and his incredible hubris, not because he was white. Jason Giambi and Andy Pettitte admitted that they doped up too, and received no admonishment whatsoever. Are they any less White than Roger Clemens?
You lie, you go down. Why didn't Marion Jones's blackness save her from prison? When you lie under oath, you relinquish your right to complain about how you're treated. You tell the truth like Sheffield, Tejada, and the aforementioned Giambi and Pettitte, you walk. It had nothing to do with race. That's just you guys again playing unwarranted victim.
Roger Clemens was ACQUITTED, though I'm sure that doesn't matter in your mind. The White players connected with steroids have been skewered and ridiculed far more than the black ones. Pumpkin Head Bonds was the exception, because his use was obvious in his appearance, by the very strong evidence accumulated that he juiced, and because he was a world class racist ******* who hated virtually everyone. Real class act, that Barry Bonds.
There are always exceptions, and Marion Jones was one.
Not PC? Wow. Rocker called his black teammate "a fat monkey". Most sane people would call that racist, however you refer to it as "not PC". That says quite a bit about you.
He also said Latrell Sprewell was allowed to play basketball after attacking his coach because he was black, and a white player would be banished from their sport if they did the same. Bullsh*t. Off the top of my head, Kevin Greene and Rob Dibble each physically attacked their coaches, and didn't miss a game. Sprewell missed 68, and lost over $7 million.
He also referred to gay man as a "queer".
Isaiah Washington, albeit not an athlete, but also a very popular, high profile black guy lost his job on Grey's Anatomy for using a gay slur like Rocker did. According to you, blacks get a pass. Why didn't his blackness save his job?
White athletes are constantly called racist names by blacks. Peyton Hillis has said he hears it constantly. We just reprinted an article about Chris Conte who says he is constantly bombarded by racial references. But blacks can do it with impunity; if a White like Rocker slips up even once he's finished.
The black actor lost his job because homosexuals are now a protected group like blacks. If a White homosexual actor had used the n-word to Isaiah Washington, he too would have lost his job. But both Washington and the theoretical homosexual could have used anti-White slurs and not been punished or likely even reprimanded.
Reggie White once said the Japanese could turn a television into a wristwatch, and Hispanics had good familty structure because large numbers of them efficiently and succesfully live together. He lost his CBS job because of that. Why didn't his blackness save him?
Because White was "conservative." If he had been a verbal flame thrower like Barack Obama's black supremacist preacher back in Chicago, no problem. But Reggie talked against homosexuality and for traditional values. For that he had to go.
So JaMarcus Russell ISN'T the biggest punchline in all of sport? On what planet? Who gets attacked more than he does?
Uh, Ryan Leaf, Tony Mandarich, Mike Mamula, Brian Bosworth for starters. Watch any ESPN show on "biggest draft busts" and it will consist mainly of White players from the 1980s and 1990s, ignoring the large amount of highly drafted blacks taken each year who suck. Akili Smith was as bad as Leaf, but how often do you hear his name mentioned instead of Leaf's when the topic is quarterback busts?
Minorities train and compete just like anyone else. The problem is you have an innate habit of underrating black athletes, then can't believe why people praise the successful ones you unabashedly spew unwarranted venom at. After spending every waking hour bashing someone, you'll have the natural inclination to believe they're artificially pushed high when they're not. Cam Newton is the perfect example. He scored 51 td's at Auburn and was undefeated. He won the Heisman. Won the National Championship. Had 4,000 yards in the air, 700 on the ground, and 34 touchdowns with the Panthers. Yet people on this board were in total disbelief that he was getting so much praise and won the Rookie of the Year. Your unrelenting bashing psychologically caused you to actually believe what you were saying about him, forcing you to conclude he was "artificially pushed high" when in actuality, his rewards were was 100% warranted and earned. Someone even said Charlotte should have drafted Chandler Harnish to replace Newton and that the Panthers wouldn't because Cam was black!
Newton was praised by some on this board. And no one ever said blacks don't train, lol. Go to this site's "About Us" section: it states that we respect the fact that blacks make good football players (and by extension good athletes).
Despite RGIII winning the Heisman, and having the 2nd greatest passing efficincy rating in the history of college football, you guys were all saying Nick Florence is better because he had a good half of one game. Using that logic, I guess Matt Flynn is better than Aaron Rodgers.
Nick Florence? lol
Deion Sanders was shredded on this board when he was elected into the Hall of Fame. Why? Because he didn't have hundreds of more tackles than he did. The total ignorance of his being a shutdown corner, rendering his whole side of a field irrelevent.. thereby leading to his lack of tackling opportunities was totally lost on his critic. You just saw his skin color and had to attack.
Sanders was criticized for being a pussy when he did have to make a tackle. It's amazing how weak your comprehension skills are. But that's because your hatred is so all-encompassing that rational argument is impossible.
The Cult of Victimhood is real. It's enveloped alotta you guys to the point of not realizing it
Yes it is and you're a great example of it. You believe every black dysfunction has an equivalent White one when the evidence is so overwhelmingly to the contrary. For every black athlete criminal there's a White one who's just as bad.
You seemed to have waited a long time to spew this on our board; fortunately it's your farewell post.
