True...
Also Jimmy the Greek said something along the line ‘they are bred that way - for speed’...
Also
Howard Cosell commented on a Redskins (the Potato) Running Back ‘look at that little monkey go’...Alvin Garrett, I believe, known as a “smurf” due to his dimunitive size.
In same vein
Rush Limbaugh on how the ‘press’ had a vested interest in having a Black QB do well. (Something along that line)
“WE”
have to love ALL Blacks lest ‘we’ be deemed racist,
have to love ALL women lest ‘we’ be deemed sexist,
have to love ALL Liberals lest ‘we’ be deemed hateful and confrontational
Ahhhh man, you beat me to the Howard Cosell moment...I thought he said “Jungle Monkey”...My memory has faded over the years since that happened...And even then it had made little impact on how I view the American Black citizens of this country...
Of course I was a kid back at that time...So I guess I was lucky NOT to be influenced by the racial faux paux presented on that program...
