I get why people get riled up over it, but I don't know man, I would rather just ignore


Pause...you keep isolating things to one person here and there....but there's a permiating body politic of people who live in racially coded rhetoric and carry a group think that I won't ignore or have you tell me is minimal.

Big difference between giving one fool flack for her outright unsophisticated bigotry and ignoring away the huge swath of fans married to racially coded language and beleifs.

No...there's tons of them starting with the analysts who start their conversations

I would never argue that Cam's negative backlash is minimal or isn't based on his race. I just wish twitter trolls and yuppie mothers didn't have the outlet that they do. The scouts and analysts in the article you posted.. they should have the things they said brought back to attention and receive flack for it because they're getting paid to spout that crap.

Why do American white people hate celebrations? Every other race loves them except white people. Look at the world cup every country is turnt.

"Hand the ball to the ref and walk to the sideline. Act like you've been there before."
:camby:

Canadians are the same way. It's the reason why guys in the NHL are so boring, and anyone with personality is looked at as a threat to "good ol' Canadian hockey"

I always hate when other white people say stupid shyt like "When I do a good thing at my job, I don't break out into a dance and pat myself on the back" Of course idiots without an athletic bone in their body would try to compare their office job to an NFL game where the compete level is through the roof and emotions run high.

White Americans don't hate celebrations nor do they hate flashy arrogant brash personalities. They hate black people who celebrate exhibit flashy arrogant brash personalities and aren't afraid to speak their mind. Look at how they've embraced trump. Look at how they embrace Tom Brady who talks shyt and celebrates all the time(albeit swagless but he still celebrates). Look how they turned Rodgers celebration into a national marketing campaign.

Whites are just racist. It's as some as that.

I hear what you're saying, the issue for me is this is a cyclical thing.

The fans eat up the twisted media narratives and develop and appetite for more. The media sees the market and keeps it coming.

This is what @NYC Rebel was bringing up w the stuff from Camps draft.

I, and I think most of the people who get upset about this is because it doesn't feel like it's just 'going to peter out' but that it actually seems to be gaining momentum.

Its not like I give a shyt what racist trailer trash in Carolina thinks of their quarterback, lol, their very existence is their own punishment for their ignorance.

But rather that without pushing back on this bullshyt it will continue to get stronger.
