Yup. He's using no excuses. Love our warrior, 88.I agree with Dez 100%. Way to go Dez. Hopefully, he won't backpeddle and retreat once SJWs and PC police come after him.

Did you really think my response was serious? Smh.Well, just sayin. Your post was a reach.
Nmh.Did you really think my response was serious? Smh.
I was looking for a post here yesterday on this when I saw it. I guess I should've posted when I didn't find it but oh well. Basically a introduction into a broader conversation but both of them are right when taken into context.
There are some valid points that he makes, but I don't agree with him 100%.I agree with Dez 100%. Way to go Dez. Hopefully, he won't backpeddle and retreat once SJWs and PC police come after him.

I have no idea what that means.Nmh.
Didn't you enjoy the low-key shade at ODB, Miley?
Which part? Help me out here, Miley. Don't be intentionally vague, please.I have no idea what that means.
I'm not sure that pointing out flaws in a system equates to making excuses.Maybe so, but Dez talks about moving forward and Shannon just makes excuses. Shannon also said that Dez needed to 'read up" so that he can be more informed. Hey Shannon, maybe Dez just has a different view on things.
No issue with what Dez said. Sharp's interpretation of it reads like an attempt to hijack the conversation to promote a tv show. Hard to take it seriously if that was the case.
Dez is completely right in his tweets. Shannon is an excuse making fool.
Love the show, too, brother. I take it for what it is. That's why I'm surprised I missed all this. I usually catch every episode on DVR.I for one actually enjoy listening to the banter on Undisputed... I find Skip and Shannon to be refreshing in many ways however Sharpe's hate for my Cowboys tend to rub me the wrong way at times lol. Skip can go overboard at times as well...
I don't think Slavery is a flaw in our current system. It was a black eye in our country's history, but it was almost 200 years ago. Dez's message about moving forward was correct.
The wideout's initial remarks can be found below, courtesy of the Dallas Morning News:
Dez' comment:
"First and foremost, I would like to say I do a great job of minding my own business, but it's pressing on my heart to share my thoughts about white Americans and black Americans (racism).
I saw a person quote Charles Barkley when he said, "We as black people, we're never going to be successful not because [of] you white people, but because of other black people."
I hate to admit it, but I understand that quote.
I've been [racially] profiled on numerous occasions, but not once has it influenced an ill feeling inside me about anyone outside of that issue. REAL SLAVERY is different from what's going on in our world now. We all (every ethnicity) have the opportunity to lead by EXAMPLE.
Instead of making videos about the history of racism that get applause or people with influence merely doing things to post for social media, we should focus on individual accountability to be better as a whole.
I recently ran into a guy I grew up with who spent his adulthood dealing drugs. While we were catching up, he shared with me that he wished that he chose a different and better path. He said seeing my success was inspiring and that it encouraged him to do better with his life.
Real question: What is wrong with being sophisticated and black? Why do we associate those who choose the straight-and-narrow as not being "black enough?" Why was it that I was one of the first examples of success to my friend?
We focus hard on fighting the realities that exist instead of creating our own reality. The ones who came for us (Martin Luther King, Rosa Parks, Malcolm X) paved a new path for us to follow. The struggles and hurt they endured created new life for us today.
It is not our job to carry the burden, but it is our job to lead by example.
Not that my opinion matters, I'm just sharing my thoughts."
