Wtf is your problem with it?


Someone saying, “your asterisk title won’t mean anything” isn’t racist. Over the last many years we keep hearing of all of these racist things being done only to find out later it was all made up.

Let’s say the racial comments were made. What did the Vandy AD accomplish? Nothing. His statement is a hollow “look at me and how noble I am” move. If he went and found the person that said such things and let them have a piece of his/her/they/zer mind, then that would be standing up for your players parents. But making a public statement to no one in particular and just creating controversy for no good reason is old and tired.

Condemning racism/racial slurs seems so unnecessary in 2021 America. It’s understood that the the overwhelming majority of mainstream American society is opposed to such things. When someone murders an old woman or rapes a child, nobody feels the need to publicly condemn murder and child rape. It’s just understood those things are universally seen as immoral and we deal with them accordingly.

There was a time when speaking out against racism made you somewhat unique and was noble. Now it’s completely unnecessary and just nonsense virtue signaling. Throw the assholes out, press charges if a crime accompanied the racist behavior, and be done with it.

The Undefeated: Eh we don't cover college baseball

Someone: What if I told you some people might have said racial slurs in the stands at the college world series?

Be prepared for piping hot takes like “this is why college baseball isn’t mainstream because of all the systemic white supremacy built into the sport”

I do know that in 2021, the only things that don't get recorded instantly by five people standing next to each other all recording the very same incident are things which likely did not warrant yanking out a phone to record it or did not happen at all.

Exactly. If this was not recorded on video in todays world, then there is no chance I believe it happened. As much shite that doesn't need to get recorded, get's recorded and this doesn't. No chance this is legit.

You actually believe people are throwing slurs around in public after the insane racism witch-hunt our country has been partaking in the past few years? You are such a shallow leftist clown. Think a little bit. This story has a 0% chance of being true.

quick! Come up with something tangentially related to racism so we can get everyone to forget about NC State and the huge competitive advantage we gained from not playing them or possibly losing to them!

So far, that is still the case considering that woman in Alabama threw an insane amount of slurs on video.

But she didn't know she was being recorded, that's different than someone just throwing this stuff out there in public.

Did someone check to see if Tennessee still had fans lingering around? May be a good place to start for the racist comments.

question: how far does the blast radius of these mean words go? are your feelings hurt by the said insults having not even been there? because this is a safe space little buddy, we want you to feel comfortable to let your guard down and share with us.

You may have missed the black guy bombarding the Asian cop with “chink” for, like, five straight minutes.

They aren’t apologizing for them. Sounds like they are tattling on State fans.


We should “tattle” on people using racial slurs at sporting events.

Do you think we shouldn’t 3piecespicy?
