Paul played the race card in past contests. Paraphrased here=}
"Of course, this still needs to be addressed, 100%. it's easy to disagree if you're white, not walking in my shoes. There IS racism in BBing. Anyone who is totally honest will say Yes. As we know Bob, sometimes the best men don't walways win
Bob: "BBing is a subjective sport. On the racism issue - I believe it exists everywhere. Does it exist in BBing? I'm not so sure. BBing on the whole is probably the melting pot of any of the sports.
PauL: "I Disagree. It does exists. It exists in the magazine coverage, the contracts of a black athelte vs. a white athlete. A black athlete getting 3 or 4th at the Olympia will have a WORSE contract than a white guy who got tenth or 11th."
Paul: "when you look at the cover, what do you see (whites). When you look at the shows, top 5 at the O is black".
bob: "It doesn't exist much now. I see DJ or DC or Coleman or Chris Cook or Cutler, you pick it... I honestly don't see any difference in contracts"
Paul: "have I experienced racism? No. I speak on the behalf of the other athletes."
