typical Boston scumbag move

Boston the most racist place in the Union wot else is new

Liberal city my ass, they hate us DAHHHHHKIES as much as any Southern city

Even if fake I bet that jersey would be a huge seller in Boston thou

Seriously, how can any black man be a Pats fan?

I have only set foot in Boston once in my life and it was on a connection flight to the UK. What a black dude at a bar in the airport told me about Boston was all i needed to know. See highlighted part below of when i told the story back in July of last year

Truth is people from the North have this perception of the South that is off. The South, while more segregated, tends to have less tension between blacks and whites. Neither races get in eachother's business and there is no beef. When i go to NY and Boston I come across mre situations of racism than i do in Atlanta and Miami.

Quick Example: One time i was flying to London UKand was connecting in Boston. 4 hour layover. I'm in the Boston airport and go to a bar and have a seat between 2 white dudes. Some black dude comes and sits next to me when one white dude left and we start talking. He picks up on my haitian accent and asks where i live and i say Atlanta and he goes "you must not live in Boston because you sitting there in the middle of these two white guys is a big no-no up here"

I was shocked when he told me this but oh well

 

[Listen]

I mean, it is possible to be offended by this, yet still realize that it was an automated process that slipped through the system, right?

While i agree with you, you must also realize it is possible for you to feel that way because you are biased
*points to avi*

I know where you're coming from, breh. When it comes from one of yours you tend to scramble for possible explanations other than what's being speculated. You want to think your squad is better than this.

Not saying you are wrong. Just want you to aknowledge you are biased and understand why you'll get the look form most posters

Black people can't sit next to white folks in Boston? At the airport?

Child please, that's complete and utter nonsense.

THIS! A photoshopped jersey is automatic too?

I used to get the NBA Store catalog mailed to me and on the back page they would show a customized jersey with my last name on it

So either some dude is sitting there painstakingly changing the picture for every single catalog that gets mailed every month, or yes its done automatically

EDIT:

To celebrate the utterly useless "accomplishment" of being the first NFL team with one million Twitter followers, the Patriots are creating custom avatar jerseys for anybody who retweets this tweet.

Doggy, I'm paraphrasing a bit but I can swear on everything and everyone i care for in this world that dude told me this.
And dont fukk with me you know damn well i dont troll. I take my credibility very seriously
Now, how much truth is there to his statement? Done ask me.: You have a lot of cats who blow sh!t (especially about racism) out of proportion on a daily basis. I always take racism claims from people i dont know with a grain a salt until i examine the issue for myself so I i did the same in that case too but i'm saying.

We see it everyday with black people quick on the trigger to pull the race card. It's not just black americans or only in America either. Racism is everywhere. Racism has plagued our race so much that it haunts us so we see it even when it's not there. But listening to the Coli you'd think it only exists in Northern Florida.

I don't care what you were told at Logan by some random person, the notion that Black people can't sit next to white people at bars, or that it is frowned upon or anything like that, is patently false. I'm gonna call bullshyt on that every time.

Of course Boston, of all cities, has its issues with racism. Wasn't too long ago that Harvard's Black student association found out how current some of those issues still are. But to perpetuate this nonsense that blacks aren't allowed (implicitly or explicitly) to sit next to white folks at a bar would be akin to insinuating that you can't drive through northern FL at night cuz you gon get lynched. It's bullshyt.

Again, like i said in my post Ive never been in Boston the city. Im talking from my experience spending 30 mins in a damn airport and the impression that i got from it. I dont know the city and dont claim to.

As for Nothern FL ive driven through there many many many times and aint sh!t happen to me. As a matter of fact about to drive through there again for ThanksGiving.

Just last month my car broke down there in the middle of "Mossy Head, FL" and i had to get it towed to the nearest shop in "Defuniak Springs, FL" dealing with a bunch of redneck looking mofos. Aint sh!t happen to me there. Black people and white people seem to get along just fine from what I saw and dont get it twisted i was not comfortable at first because of, again, "perception" of northern FL. Now, that we got perception on the brain, the dudes warning to me gave me a certain "perception" of Boston just like whatever you saw in the news gave you a "perception" of Northern FL.

How you let that "perception" affect your opinion of what/who someone/somewhere is is entirely up to you

So you should refrain from sharing your useless anecdotal tale. You're just perpetuating bullshyt.

"I didn't play for Boston, I played for the Celtics and Red Auerbach.
Boston is a flea market of racism. It had all varieties, old and new, and in their most virulent form. The city had corrupt, city hall-crony racists, brick-throwing, send-’em-back-to-Africa racists, and in the university areas phony radical-chic racists... Other than that, I liked the city."
- Bill Russell

Dude won 11 NBA titles but Boston folks didn't care. They actually hated him since he was very active in the Civil Rights Movement. Fans broke into his house, put racist graffiti on the walls and defecated on his bed... They wanted him out of their neighborhood.
shyt was so bad, he didn't even show up when they retired his jersey and also when he was inducted into the Hall of Fame.
In 1999, the Boston Globe did a citywide poll on who was the greatest athlete of the 20th century in Boston... Ted Williams won in a landslide despite bringing zero championship to the city

WHy? YOu feel im passing judgnement on your beloved city without knowing anything about it? Dont you mofos do that every damn day about other cities and countries?

I made it a point to state how long i was there instead of just saying "ive been to Boston blah blah blah" so people would have the full story so spare me you perpetuating bullshyt

Always funny to my how black people will come to the defense of their turf no matter how racist against them said turf can be
