I watch a ton of NFL football (thank you DirecTV NFL Super Fan!), and Joe Buck rarely, if ever, says anything complimentary about black NFL stars, especially opinionated, outspoken ones. He will kiss Brett Favre's backside, no matter how many ducks he Favre heaves up for grabs (okay, so will Madden, et al.), but will only refer to the "athleticism" of black players. It's really appauling. He jumped all over Moss for pretenting to moon Packer fans (obnoxious, at most), yet remained conspicuously silent about the Mark McGuire debacle or how Big Mack's chemical assistance helped his beloved Cardinals.

If only I could be such a slave! So let me get this straight, someone spends half their life dedicating themself to a sport they love, overcoming all the competition, to be fortunate enough to play the sport professionally, thereby making more money than virtually everyone in America, and that makes them a slave. I must respectfully disagree. I believe there is a profound difference between NFL players and someone who was taken against their will, traded like an animal, shipped to a new continent to work and live without freedom and without getting paid. In fact, I find your description of NFL players as slaves to be disrespectful to those who actually suffered under slavery. Hey, you know who else is a slave? Will Smith! He's just a $20 million dollar per picture slave to the studios in a world of white agents, lawyers, bankers, accountants, and studio heads.

That's good news for Fox football. Whether the country has become more racist under Bush or not is not really the issue (though, it probably has), the real issue is that the networks love keeping Whitey comfortable. If that means uncontrollably bashing yet another black athlete in yet another double-standard debacle, then so be it. Ad dollars are ad dollars. So what if all the players are black - they're just <a href="http://www.leagueoffans.org/blog/index.php?/archives/38-Forty-Million-Dollar-Slaves,-by-William-C.-Rhoden.html" rel="nofollow">$40 million slaves</a>. When black fans and athletes start organizing and sticking together, then the Joe Bucks of this world won't continue to have the opporunity to dance on the backs fo black men whenever they want to get off.

The packers probably deserved more than they got after letting a fucking band rile up the most dangerous receiver in the NFL…

Notice that certain commentators getting quite a chuckle out of that crafty band.
