"Rush might want to apply this to the NFL as well."

And college football, at least here in Florida. Bowden has had his share of gangstas and felons at FSU.

And baseball isn't that far behind.

Hit da ball ... get da check.

Wait. Miami far outshadows FSU in that department in look and style. Bad first choice for Florida.

What everyone thinks but is afraid to say - "We need an NBA that looks more like America".

Every argument the left makes for affirmative action could be applied to professional sports. Surely athletic ability is distributed equally among all ethnic groups. So if an ethnic group is not proportionally represented in a particular sport it must be caused by defacto institutional racism. It is not necessary to prove particular instances of racism. The end result is proof that it exists. We need outreach and special development programs for under-represented groups.

Finally, shouldn't Title IX apply to races as well as gender in school athletics? Shouldn't sports teams in high schools and colleges represent the student body in all respects?
