  1. When the story broke this is how is was characterized (It was even on the front page of Yahoo)- http://www.nypost.com/p/blogs/zach_braziller/despite_tragic_death_muller_memory_guQoHxYL9o8PjvnfZEXoKJ Sounds like a good kid defending his father from a 2-1 assault at the hands of a couple of thieves. Until the video was released yesterday.... http://www.myfoxny.com/dpp/news/video-of-fight-that-ended-with-death-of-football-star-isayah-muller-20110708
  2. The Jets will implode this year, I'm calling it. 6-7 wins, no playoffs, and a stream of off the field nonsense.
  3. http://newsone.com/newsone-original/boycewatkins/no-independence-day-for-black-people/ You mean media outlets are owned by corporations? That's crazy! How vague can you get? An example would be nice. I realy have no idea whats he's getting at with this. If Pre-K kids are listening to Lil Wayne that's the parents fault. And Lil Wayne is on a record label founded and run by two black guys! Source please. It's not like a college degree could help alleviate that poverty.... I must be imagining that blacks are over-represented in the federal workforce for their percentage of the population.
  4. Buffalo has traditionally been a good team for UDFAs hoping to make a pro roster.
  5. It's a business decision and many Myrtle Beach businesses just can't make money during BBW. I'm sure that if the Harley week was as chaotic as BBW they'd be shutting down then too. Unfortunately, and I'm sure I'll take heat for even suggesting it, but large crowds of young African Americans invariably leads to violence. Just look at all the mayhem that happened over Memorial weekend- Boston http://www.boston.com/news/local/massachusetts/articles/2011/05/31/fights_break_out_at_carson_beach/ Charlotte http://www.wcnc.com/news/local/Victims-family-city-leaders-have-questions-after-Uptown-shooting-122846569.html Nashville http://www.newschannel5.com/story/14750758/police-shut-down-wave-country-due-to-unruly-crowd Chicago http://www.wlsam.com/Article.asp?id=2200256&spid= Long Island http://www.myfoxny.com/dpp/news/long-island-beach-riot-20110531-apx Miami http://miamiherald.typepad.com/gaysouthflorida/2011/05/gay-activist-herb-sosa-south-beach-a-war-zone-demands-end-to-urban-weekend-with-video.html The NAACP should stop vilifying businesses and condemning behavior like this that only serves to reinforce stereotypes. lol
  6. How many kids fresh from High School (some as young as 17) are physically ready for the NFL? Wouldn't this be a potentially dangerous inducement for High School football players to use performance enhancing drugs? And they get something even more valuable than the education-name recognition. If you're a graduated player for Ohio State with a degree in (insert random major) don;t you think that when submitting resumes for jobs in Columbus/Ohio that being recognized as a Ohio State football player would be a great way to at least land an interview? I read a study somewhere where they actually quantified a dollar value for the name recognition a D1 athlete possesses and it was really amazing.
  7. http://www.thesunnews.com/2011/05/27/2184575/naacp-in-town-to-monitor-fairness.html NAACP in town to monitor fairness of rally compared to Harley Davidson event I'm sure it has less to do with serving black people than it does the violence that Black Bike Week brings with it annually. http://www.wmbfnews.com/story/14746715/myrtle-beach-police-see-busy-weekend-for-crime MBPD investigates weekend violent crimes and on and on and on...
  8. It's getting worse. Report: ‘significant inquiry by NCAA’ underway for Terrelle Pryor http://collegefootballtalk.nbcsports.com/2011/05/30/facepalm-report-significant-inquiry-by-ncaa-underway-for-terrelle-pryor/related
