Burwell is a leftist racist idiot. He has a column in the Past-Disgrace, and he co-hosts a sports-talk radio program. Here in St. Louis, no one really takes him seriously. His columns are not very good, and he’s rather boring and non-insightful on the radio also. The only time anyone notices him here in town is when he leads with the racist chip on his shoulder.
You are correct, the only time anybody is talking about Burwell is when he’s kicking up racial dust. Believe me, I wasn’t going to the P-D looking for an article by the guy. I was on their website because I’m a Cards fan and was just taking a peek at the message boards.
