Blacks can have 13% of the Academy Awards if they will agree to roll back their numbers in the NBA and NFL to 13%.

Since there have long been black colleges with football teams, have they had to import white players to do the opening kickoff, so that the games could get underway?

I remember watching a game years ago, circa 1979, EKU vs. Jackson St., a "historically black school". There was only one white guy on the whole Jackson St. team-the punter/kicker.

Putting aside all the controversy about Sowell’s presidential picks, I absolutely love listening to him speak. He is 85 years old and still is sharp and clear in his analysis of issues. And he presents it so well and so directly. No BS. And his command of facts and ability to marshal them for use in his argument is amazing.

The late, great, Reggie Roby was a great punter in the NFL and earlier at Iowa, where I well remember him. And he happened to be black. I’m not sure he still has the career punting average record, but he set it at the time. IIRC, had he hit his final punt two yards longer he’d have averaged 50 yards per punt over four years. Alas our gunners were too slow to cover his long kicks so he net wasn’t that good. But it sure was fun when he’d boot one 20 yards over the coverage. He didn’t hit them as far in the pros as they finally got him to kick for hang time rather than distance, but he did well enough to make all pro. He placekicked in HS at Waterloo, IA, and tried that some in college, but wasn’t accurate enough to keep that job in spite of having the strongest leg anywhere. But I did see him kick some extra points and thus have seen a black kid do that.

My favorite part of the Obama era is all the racial healing.

(Seen on instapundit.com, originally posted somewhere other than that.)

Do those who believe in genetics think that blacks are just genetically incapable of kicking a football?

No, but you Cuckservatives kept thinking we conservatives would continue running up to kick a football again and again forever no matter how many times the GOP-e pulled it away from us.

A study of military forces around the world failed to find a single one in which in which the ethnic makeup of the military was the same as that of the society.

I totally forgive Sowell for not backing Trump...

Sowell was a communist in his 20s. Until he can explain his recent relapse in style and substance in his NRO hit piece against Trump, everything he writes will now be suspect.
