Dan Le Batard Wonders If Rob Gronkowski Would Be "Universally Beloved" If He Were Black

[godkiller]

Dumbass, there is no issue here. It's a random thought some idiot talk show host brought up to bait ppl into discourse.

Why does Gronk being a white athlete matter at all?

Your post doesn't reply to what I said. Why is it race and ethnicity issues matter so little to you that you are compelled to attack them, but you never express the same opinion in other superfluous threads which arguably "matter" even less? Your myopia and selective posting is transparent. It doesn't matter if a talk show host, a child or a doctor brings up an issue. The value in an issue is determined solely on its own merits, and not on the reputation of the messenger who brings up said issue.

This is a sports forum. People like to talk about pertinent, sometimes controversial, issues. In the long run, none of it matters. So why you do always only attack these kinds of threads, but never any of the others'?

How is Gronk controversial? We serious here?

Dude has been portrayed as a meathead with a caveman IQ in the past week (FOX, ESPN, The Tonight Show, etc). I don't see the in this. David Ortiz POS ass gets more love in Boston than the Gronk and gets away with more too.

People are acting like Gronk didn't almost make the turn to hated.. When he kept partying and getting injured, bunch of negative articles came out..

Interesting question, Barkley might be an even better example than Shaq. Granted he's devolved into a buffoon who talks down to black people, but I think he was loved even before that.

Is there a lazier angle than the if "so and so were black" angle? Its entered into name your Mt Rushmore territory.

Typical talk radio white boy response with the inability to look inward at their own hypocrisy

White people love to deflect tactic whenever a valid race question is posed.

Just answer the question and move on.

Why are you dodging his question?

You deflect every single time he's called you out in your bullshyt, selective complaints

It's really not about Geonk it's about white fan and people like hypocrisy.

If Gronk were black, I'm certain talk radio heads like you would call in on "what about the kids" and other corny shyt they exaggerate about niqqas.

Notice, no one here complains about Gronk chilling with porn stars and other shyt. We just notice that white folks who want to protect their kids from the "evil" of guys who don't speak to the media And other things are "chilling too" when it comes to Gronk.

White folks stay giving passes to whites they don't give to blacks.

What have I deflected? That long winded non sensical post was a bunch of words without an iota of a point.

You're blind if you don't think Gronk has detractors. Calling him universally loved is a flat out lie.

But there's nothing Gronk does that's really all that harmful. He stays out of trouble and enjoys getting laid.

Black anger, racism and hypocrisy doesn't fuel AM/sports radio.

White racism, hypocrisy and denial like yours though create a WFAN
