From the article

ESPN hosts Stephen A. Smith and Ryan Clark don’t want to hear white people talking about NFL players swinging their helmets at each other.

On “First Take” Friday, Smith and Clark took issue with former NFL player Geoff Schwartz calling for the suspension of Aaron Donald, who swung two helmets at Bengals players in a joint practice this week.

It’s not so much that Smith and Clark have an issue with the suspension talk, it’s that a white person said so.

Clark, the crybully who refused to work with Sage Steele because her politics weren’t like his, began:

“I saw what [white guy] Geoff (Schwartz) tweeted yesterday. We start getting into where [white guy] Adam Schefter is saying ‘assault,’ where all of these people are saying these things are criminal. To me, that puts these players in a position where you’re making them or you’re putting them in a category with people that rob, with people that steal, with people that assault, with people that commit domestic violence. And we have to be very careful when we start to toe that line.”


Smith responded by saying whites talking about Donald might just be racist:

“When you got white analysts talking that way and using that language about black dudes, that’s another level. And that’s why I appreciate RC bringing that up. I’m not accusing any analyst of racism or anything like that, I’m just telling them how we take it. Now what I want to do, if I’m looking at whoever sent that tweet out, I forgot his name, it was Schwartz or whomever, but it doesn’t matter. Whoever sent that tweet out and whoever thinks like that, now I want to see if you say that about the white dude that does it. Because if I don’t hear the same verbiage, if I don’t hear the same language if something like that happens with somebody white, now I’m looking at you with a raised eyebrow and saying, ‘what the hell you trying to say?’”

I don't listen to what either of those guys have to say about anything anyway.

Stephen A especially.

He's an entertainment tool.

i’m actually surprised they covered it in the first place, but i guess they had no choice when a white guy chimes in with their views on it

It's simply to get clicks. It's all theater, from the initial tweets to the responses.

Can we have an example of a white person doing it and people reacting the exact opposite?

Pretty much time to just appoint reps to divvy up the country and go our separate ways

Sure. Point out which white NFL player assaulted someone by using a helmet like a fricking club and I’d say the same thing.

Why are you all biting their hook?

They win when any oxygen or outrage is pointed towards them.

Remember, white people are not allowed to criticize black people bc “it’s racist”, even if the criticism has absolutely nothing to do with race. It’s propaganda that continues to be perpetuated by racists, which both Smith and Clark proudly are.

Bill Romanowski acted like an unhinged animal. So did Aaron Donald. Guys need to grow the frick up. Both the "journalists" and the players

I always remember my dad couldn’t stand Bill Romanowski for all the shite he did throughout the years.

-White people don’t defend their shite heads.
-Hispanic people don’t defend their shite heads.
-Asian people don’t defend their shite heads.
It’s ok to admit that a shite head happens to look like you, Stephen A.
