That's funny. I thought Whitlock was a guy who saw white racism around every corner. Maybe we're thinking of two different columnists.

I don't think so. You might be thinking of Scoop Jackson. You need to go back and read some of Whitlock's articles. Mainly the Rutgers women bb team-Don Imus fiasco, the Sean Taylor murder(where he was completely wrong) and NBA All Star Weekend in Las Vegas.

Whitlock doesn't cry racism. He tries to push buttons along racial lines to get a deep conversation going about the black athletes, stereotypes, whatever. He tries to come off a the Ralph Wiley of this era and it does work sometimes and other times it doesn't.

naw, Whitlock harps on the brothers alot

his 2 cents on the Vick issue was that dog-fighting was the thug mentality of young black men his view, not mine, although I believe dogfighting is a lower-class mentality not limited to just
African Americans

I remember that

that's why I hate when people weigh in on a subject much too early

Whitlock suffers from the common problem of a writer being controversial for the sake of it which helps him get readers (whether we like it or not). I have read some brilliant articles by him in the past, but when you get a cross section of a lot of his articles, he's basically going against the grain to get a rise out of the readers.

I also believe he's a guy when he hears about an African-American committing a crime, he attributes it as a knock against his race, and feels that he has to cover up for it

and has the outlet to do that

Never have seen a black man who seems to hate his own race the way this fool does... I mean, he could almost qualify for KKK membership, with the venom he spews...


This article has nothing with race, it just confirming that Vince Young is too Feminine to play Football in the NFL.

Umm no, it is the complete opposite.

He likes it when it is an African-American so he can pump out one of his anti-Black/Black KKK Articles.

Marcellus Wiley eloquently called him out on it.
