That's all fine and dandy. I don't think many, if any at all, are discrediting what RC accomplished on the field.

That's an opinion that most people do not share.
I know this is hard to believe, given what is shown in the media. But a very very very large majority of the population is NOT racist. When you paint everyone that way, as RC tended to do, that large number gets tired of hearing it. He is not a victim. 99% of the time the people he defends aren't victims. And people don't enjoy constantly hearing that nonsense, especially when they are trying to listen to something about sports (which should be a break from all that mess).

I used to wear 14K dropletters (my initials stacked on top of each other) on a chain until I lost it. I see people wearing their name on a chain.
Different strokes for different folks.

Please don't let him get a job of any form in BR media. I would kindly appreciate it if he just went away.

Maybe a sports czar at MSNow

That won't happen. This is a chance for him to kick the victim mentality up a notch. It will elevate his wokeness but his platform will now bc much much smaller, along with his paychecks.

but Ryan stands for something different. Unlike you, he is not just an anonymous hater; you will remain an unknown Tiger fan wishing for a taste of Ryan's success.
And I dont give two fricks he was a LSU Tiger, his Racist arse is a embarrassment

I honestly can't even imagine what would go through someone's head to conclude "I need to commission gold large scale initials that I can wear on my lapel".

I appreciate you post but this is where you lost me. Most racist people hate hearing people call out racism in the act. He and most of the people that look like him including the majority of our team have felt differently about matters involving race. Some people just hate to acknowledge racism. Kudos to anyone who decides to call it out every single time.

As someone who didn’t really watch the programming that Ryan Clark was on, can anyone give me some examples of some of the racist remarks he made?
Anyone?
No examples?
Hmmm
You obviously have internet. Figure it out genius!

Some people like to make everything about racism, when it isn't.

I don't think many people at all condone racism. And if actual, real, racism is happening, then calling it out is fine. The problem here is he makes EVERYTHING about race, and that's simply not the case.

If something thats posted is factual, but those facts negatively reflect on a race, can that be considered racist?

That's is incorrect and a running lie amongst a certain group of people. The only people who feel the way you do are people who did not agree with his takes each time a race related issue took place. This only took off because he sided with the players who felt like they did not have the support of our coaching staff at the height of racism in 2020 after George Floyd was murdered. I agree wholeheartedly with his actions. It was needed.

Ok. I can see where this is going, and know your stance. I'll see myself out. Carry on.

I spend less than 5% of my time on this board on the OT. So I don't know specifics, or specific posters you are talking about. Not going seek it out, just to look for a reason to be offended by something isn't ignoring it.
