Scoop Jackson:Another day in Sin City

He actually played the race card by comparing the NBA All-Star game to the NHL All-Star game!

"We should remain quiet as if there's absolute truth to what is being communicated about the behavior of the "hip-hop thugs and their baby mammas" (code: young black people) who went to Vegas and displayed a side of ignorance that had veteran reporters and columnists "scared" to go out of their rooms? But in Dallas a few weeks ago at the NHL All-Star Game these same cats felt safe as kittens."

Seriously, whether you like Scoop or don't, that is as idiotic a comparison as you will ever see. A weekend in Vegas at an event billed as "Black Thanksgiving" by Wilbon versus a midweek game airing on Versus to an audience of 537 people in Big D. Wow.

 

There's nothing funnier than the pathetic attempting to defend themselves.

 

AHHHH, a Scoop Jackson Column - Smell that fresh air?

Now go hold your nose in a Whitlock column.

 

Hey pony, how about learning another trick?

 

You follow him around like a lost dog.

 

Fact is, Whitlock, both of you had strikingly different columns about the same weekend.

Scoop's was reactionary. Yours was just filing a throw-away at your newspaper and then helping AOL bring in the hits. I would be pissed if I was your KC Star editor.

 

In Whitlock's defense, at least he managed to write a good one.

 

Scoop can't win with you guys. Stats are stats, but since you don't want to believe, you ignore or discredit the fine print. You guys are amazing. Scoop's article, forgive me for saying this lol, was good. He did his due dilligence and I'm gonna compliment him for it.

 

What's wrong with clarifying the actual number of arrests?

 

Wow, I don't feel like that has been conveyed at all. Everything I've read I've assumed there were 403 arrests. Never got the impression that it was that many more than a typical weekend.
