I know the R word can make folks uncomfortable but this is exactly what happened. Dude called a team full of (mostly) fair skin girls “America’s Sweethearts” and a team full of (mostly) dark skin girls “dirty debutantes”.

I agree with Mulkey that it's more sexist, not racist.

Exactly. Noone cares if the white girls talk shite. But as soon as you have a team full of black girls talking they are trash.

Imus used the term “nappy headed ho’s”. That is egregious. Dirty debutants is bad but doesn’t reach the level of nappy headed ho’s.

It's not racism, ffs. Angel is the leader of this team. She is very pretty and looks like she'd be just as comfortable in a pageant. But she goes for the trash talking street tough angle. The name seems to be the mindset the team is trying to project.

The best example of this is the Clark/Reese reaction difference. Clark can bitch and moan anytime anyone touches her, can’t see me celebration, f-bomb the WVU crowd to the point her father gets upset in the stands, f-bond the IU bench. Crickets. Angel does one can’t see me to Clark. It blows up and Angel’s a “thug.”

According to LSU President William Tate.

Willie F. been very silent since he was thrust into the position by the Ultra Woke LSUBOS and you know he was told early on to stfu in regards to all the CRT BS.......

Some people want to bury their heads in the ground. They want to argue that everything is racist; therefore, nothing is.

That way, they don't have to think about it. They don't have to process it.

They don't want to deal with reality. They don't want to deal with facts. They don't want to deal with details.

It doesn't affect them, so they don't care.

It’s definitely racist and sexist. When Clark acts like an arse she’s described as competitive, when Reese does it she’s trashy.

At the end of the day they’re both competitors. The women’s game has long been way too soft, they need people like clark and Reese.

That's exactly it. Double standards are literally the definition of racism. They don't even realize they are racist.
