Hypocrite: ESPN Prettyboy Calls Non-Obama Voters "Racist" (Free Republic mentioned)

But apparently, the bigotry of his own employer was lost on ESPN prettyboy Chris Fowler. The "College Game Day" broadcaster announced to viewers that if you didn't vote for Barack Obama, you won't hire a Black coach. In other words, if you didn't vote for Obama, you're a racist.

Makes you wonder how people like this muster up enough brain power to keep to their heart pumping.

We need to hire more black game day college analysts. I’m sure that ole’ Chris would be more than willing to give up his job on the show to a black man/woman to balance things out...

They are not racist... they are NON-SOCIALISTS and patriotic Americans who care about America and its core values, founding documents, our laws, our liberties and our national strength and leadership in the free world.

THAT is the difference. Nice try libs you race-baiting filth.

I wouldn’t hire Herm Edwards, Ty Willingham, or Marvin Lewis.

I would hire Tony Dungy (in a heartbeat) or Lovie Smith.

Because of their coaching ability and record, not because of the color of their skin.

90% of the folks on ESPN are morons anyway (including their Sportschick Barbie clones).

1) Fire him - he just insulted a healthy percentage of his viewers.

2) Hey, moron, what do you say about the fact that 95% of blacks voted for Obama? If 95% of whites voted for McCain, I’d say it was racism - so what about the actual fact of black racism in this election?

This kind of crap only works if we flinch. The old adage "bit dog hollers" applies if we launch into a bunch of denial...it implies defensiveness.

The best answer for these libs comes from my 13-year-old granddaugher...."whatever".

I agree. How is what he said any less divisive than Rush's comment on the Chris Vermin drivel-fest on Sunday morning? Another reason not to watch ESPN.

I watch ESPN College Gameday all the time. I must have missed him saying that. I would be disappointed, if I wasn’t so numb from years and years of being told by credentialed mental midgets that I’m a whatever-ist or something-phobic if I don’t believe in blah blah blah. I just tune it out anymore. Chris Fowler is a douche, he blends right in at ESPN with the rest of the merry gang of douche’s that work there. I just can’t get worked up over this.

Lots of black head coaches in the NFL these days. In addition to the ones you mentioned there's Romeo Crennel in Cleveland, Tomlin in Pittsburgh and Singletary in SF.

Lewis was a great defensive coordinator in Baltimore but I'm not sure he's a head coach. Ditto for Crennel.

I'm not ashamed to be a racist. In my entire adult life, I have never voted for a black socialist. I have never voted for a black communist, whether a national socialist or a soviet socialist. I have never even voted for a black anti-American terrorist sympathizer. I refuse to vote for a black man whose past life totally lacks accomplishments, and I even shun black candidates who are ashamed of my country. I have never voted for a black man whose greatest strength as a candidate was being black. This is what is known as racism, and I plead guilty. It's not relevant to the discussion, but I also refuse to vote for white candidates and even Asians to whom comparable descriptions apply.

During one game some announcer made a gleeful comment about Obama.

Dumb jocks.

When ESPNDisney let Hunter S. Thompson continue to write for their website AFTER DECLARING THAT THE ABU GHRAIB ABUSES WERE MORE HORRIFIC THAN THE WORST OF THE ACTIONS OF THE NAZIS, they showed their political bias.

Let's Go To The Olympics. (Such the Barf Alert!!) (ESPN 24 May 2004 By Hunter S. Thompson)

Not even the foulest atrocities of Adolf Hitler ever shocked me so badly as these photographs did.

Oh sure, they later edited the article when it brought them negative press but they never died fire him. Not like Rush.
