Wow, what's it say when a sports writer is putting forth more daring social commentary than any political pundits?

 

I think I'm going to hang myself.

 

Damn! I feel like I'm eavesdropping on a converstaion not meant for white peoples' ears.

 

Oh no, here we go again......

Note to self -- stay out of this one.

(And I am starting to wonder what others do -- is this guy and Jemele Hill the only columnists in America? And why does someone see the need to post everything this guy writes....)

 

Sorry zagoshe, I'm new here. Just thought this was a controversial column worthy of discussion, especially since he's putting his money where his mouth is.

 

I repeat ... I think I'm going to hang myself.

 

Can we ask Webby or Moddy to develop another section of the board just for Jemele Hill and Jason Whitlock columns? It would probably make SportsJournalists.com easier to manage.

 

Oh god, nevermind. Someone delete the thread if it's such a big f'n deal. Sorry.

 

It isn't.. don't worry about them...

 

JUST DON'T CLICK THE THREAD.

If you don't want to read about Whitlock, why would you click a thread called "Latest Whitlock?" What did you think it was going to be about?

I enjoy the Whitlock/Hill threads because they post under their real names and you get to better understand how they crafted their arguments. I think it is interesting.

 

You can delete it. There's a button on the left.

 

I liked it. I liked it a lot. Others on here might say I have no opinion because I'm not of the same race as someone I have called a friend for 13 years, but he's right: Social change comes from small steps. And if he wants to call for an end to black on black exploitation, good for Jason.
