To be honest, there are a ton of people that cheer for athletes from other races while not wanting to have any further association with "those" people.



Kinda like Roman gladiators??

The truth of the matter that nobody wants to admit is that it's man's natural state to have a preference towards those who are of his own kind. This is true of all races and thd biggest racial problem we face today is that people are too scared to face this truth.

i'm black, and I generally hate all black people. This post is bull shite.

Hypothetical. Your dream house comes open for sale, and you can afford it. Only thing is everybody in the community is Black or Mexican. Would you buy the house?


No, first of all because my dream house is in the country and not in the middle of a neighborhood. Secondly, I wouldnt want to live in a neighborhood full of the typical black or mexican public. Yes, it may be racist, but it's not without merit and exposure.

What's to stop extraterrestrials from pitting race against race? The Native Americans didn't unite against the Europeans; Africans didn't unite against the Europeans or Arabs; Americans of any race won't unite against illegal immigration.

I think it will be with us forever unfortunately. In the pas I worked with people I admired for their professionalism until I heard racist comments come out of their mouthes.

A manager at OLOL referred to African Americans as pickaninis! I should have reported her arse!

If you haven't done so do a look up of Jim Crow and also segregation laws. I was floored. Enough to say I am embarrassed to be a citizen sometimes.

Well eventually the races will homogenize and everyone will look like Jessica Alba and Blake Griffin.

But not in my lifetime.

Racism doesn't bother me. I've been called an n-word straight to my face, so not much phases me anymore.

It seems to be a burden to me, to be preoccupied with something so trivial. It's natural to have a preference towards your own race. That's not racism. But those that harbor bitterness and anger over having to be around or associate with people who are not of their race, feel sorry for them. There's so much more to life.

That's not very Christian.
and censorship here is paramount to a degree b/c to keep it the BEST COLLEGE SPORTS message board around and KEEP it free, El Pollo needs these folks to advertise here. So racism and posts about how to turn off ads will get your arse bannt.

You out that way tonight? I'm slangin.
I got bidness to tend to after work. wyd.
