No need to put them on a pedestal all the time because they are good at sports. Try doing something to lift up white people once in a while.

White people have done so many great things throughout history, and continue to do so. It just irritates me how these beasts are hailed like the second coming of the Messiah, just because they are born with physical advantages.

We both know football is merely a delivery system for social engineering and mass formation. It was never about the ball.

IIRC Okoeye only played a few seasons before injuries forced him out? (Didn't watch the vid)

Divorcing myself from professional sports was even easier than doing so from Hollywood. I know the Jets signed Aaron Rodgers, that was a mainstream new story, but other than that I couldn’t name a single player on the team.
