Ok, ill play. At the acceptance speech for the golden spikes award crews says, I owon this to prove to white kids from decent family's can still succeed too
Why did you shift from your Burrow example? Was it because he actually made a similar point that Reece made and it destroyed your argument? So you shift to a wealthy white family instead of just a white family. Dude you’re a joke

I am in no way, shape, or form, a leftist. Whitlock is objectively a moron.

Jason Whitlock is an American hero. Shut your mouth.

I was actually about to post this. Directly from Joe's Heisman speech:
quote:
Coming from southeast Ohio it’s a very impoverished area and the poverty rate is almost two times the national average. There’s so many people there that don’t have a lot and I’m up here for all those kids in Athens and Athens County that go home to not a lot of food on the table, hungry after school. You guys can be up here, too.
A really uncharitable reading of both Joe's and Angel's comments would be "the system is skewed against poor black/poor white people." I choose not to see it as that.
And his earlier example of "they felt like Clark was disrespecting a black SC player" is uncharitable too. It's silly to think that Angel and Morris were teaming up on Clark because they felt like she was insulting black players. And that's why Whitlock's statement about "Reese was upset that a white player was doing well" is bad too.
Say her celebration was ill-timed or a bad look. I disagree, but you're well within your rights to say that. But I don't like throwing race around in it

I could, but I’d be lying. I honestly have no idea what political affiliation Whitlock supports (I guess I do now), but every time I see a quote of his it’s laughably stupid.

You have got to be joking. I am not sure if I just thought better of people, but I assumed everyone treated him like the joke he is. Anyway, I’m done talking about this clown with other clowns. This isn’t the board for it.

There are plenty of "ghetto" kids that have been successful at not only basketball but other sports as well. So there are plenty of role models out there. It was a poor excuse.
She acted poorly. It happens. Move on.

I, for one, would have showed more sportsmanship but I understand that this is who Angel Reese is. She has done the “too small” sign all year and at some points, affected her ability to get back on defense. She has also been T’d up a few times for her trash talking this season. At one point, I felt her antics would eventually cost LSU a game but thankfully it didn’t.
This is pretty spot-on. She's a great player and at times goes overboard with the trash talking, but this is how sports are now, so it shouldn't be something that shocks people.

This times a thousand. The one person in the world who has the right to be offended has totally blown this entire saga off for what it was. Inconsequential.

Whitlock is infinitely more intelligent than you'll ever be. Who did you vote for again?!

Meanwhile white liberals are shitting all over the black team. Take your L and shut the frick up.
Watching Keith have to back track after being called out for his racism is always good.

I remember Larry Bird was a legendary trash talker, but he didn't do that at the end of the game.
This is the key difference between Clark and Reese both doing the “you can’t see me”. Clark did it during a game and very briefly. Reese did it at the end of the game after winning a NC and running down the other team’s star payer to do it in her face. Seriously who does that after winning a championship game? Completely child like and petty. And then she makes up a narrative that everyone calls her too ghetto or too hood. No one was calling her that. She’s the only one calling herself that. And then to top it off she says something about inspiring girls that look like her. The sport is dominated by people that look like her. Clark is the one who should be talking about inspiring little girls that look like her. She’s an extreme minority fighting her whole life for respect in a sport where the overwhelming majority of players don’t look like her. Angel Reese’s take on this is so ridiculous.

You can get out of the ghetto if you're good at basketball...or maybe if you can rap...
That's definitely the message we want to push. Not learn to read, write and speak well and try hard in school and everything that you do. Not win/lose with humility and treat other people with respect. No, get good at sports and act a fool if you feel disrespected is the message.
Trying to get into the opponent's head with trash talk during a game is part of sports. After you've won, it's time to show humility and shake the other guy/gal's hand and say "good game", not follow them around calling them a ho and rubbing it in (unless said person was playing dirty). It's insane that we're acting like this is only how white people act and they're forcing our values onto black people. This is understood by 99.99% of athletes across all sports and ethnicities. This is what 99.99% of parent's teach their children from the time they can hold a ball.
The other .01% are sociopaths or narcissists who could give a shite about other people or societal norms.
