Considering that way back in 2007, there was a Super Bowl with two black head coaches, it really is stupid to focus on the races of the head coaches anymore.

The funny thing is, even though the championship is being broadcast on their network, after last night’s game, ESPN commentators said it’s not worth watching because there is no way Notre Dame can even compete.

Another reason they don't like Notre Dame is that the quarterback constantly mentions God, but he is so likeable about it, it's hard for them to shade it. What's worse it, he's white.

After both playoff games, he brought it up when being talked to on the field after the game. After the semifinal, he brought it up three times, including the trophy award. The female reporter even mentioned it in a non-snarky way.

Coach Marcus Freeman does sign off with something about God, but they sometimes cut it off.

ESPN is horrible. It has been for a while. Sports media is at least as left wing as the broader mainstream media.

ESPN has promoted anti-white rhetoric and dialog as long as it has existed.

You just don’t notice it, because you are used to letting it slide, because a) you don’t want to cause trouble; b) you don’t want to be called a pussy; c) you “don’t see race”; or d) you are under 40 and you have been raised to look at it as normal or even laudable.

“It’s not about me, it’s about us” - that’s a head coach.

My observation of this coach is that he has studied the rules closely in an effort to find ways around them. Something Notre Dame has done since the days of leather helmets.

Tony Dungy’s quote after winning the Super Bowl:

“I’ll tell you what. I’m proud to be representing African-American coaches, to be the first African-American to win this. It means an awful lot to our country. But again, more than anything, I’ve said it before, Lovie Smith and I (are) not only the first two African-Americans but Christian coaches showing that you can win doing it the Lord’s way. And we’re more proud of that.”

Another Freeman (Morgan) once told Mike Wallace that we needed to stop talking about race.

Liberals just can't help themselves--you can't blame them for it. It is as natural as their breathing.

Race baiting, divisiveness, perpetual victimization and identity politics are in their DNA.

It is vey obvious that the media, whether it be sports, news or political, does not see its job as informing and entertaining any more, but sees it as dividing, exposing and pushing specific ideology. That is why they are, as Trump said, the enemy of the American people.

I’m a buckeye fan, but I really like this guy Marcus Freeman.

Being black does not disqualify one from becoming anything.

Likewise, being black does not qualify anyone to become something.

I thought he gave an excellent response.

From the look of the reporter, though, I think it was simply too logical for her to understand.
