Are you fucking kidding me? Whites are favored in sports? I can't take ESPN anymore... this is ridiculous.

Here is all you need to know about society. MLK dies and we get a day off work for it. Jesus dies and rises from the dead, and we have to work.

Why do I get an ad for Full Sail University that says "Build Character" when I click on this thread?

I want to know why I've never seen a black field-goal kicker. Clearly some racist bullshit going on here, yes??

I liked how they made a big deal about having black coaches in the Super Bowl for the first time when Dungy and Smith did it. Forget the fact that 85% of the players in the SB were black as well, they just needed an angle to exploit.

It's not like they were the first 2 black head coaches, just the ones that actually had a team that made the SB is all.

The more the media focuses on trivial things like this, the more it will create a rift about race in everyday life.

The whole thing wasn't done with very good tact. Basically it went on to say "Hey, look at these differences in opinion! Aren't whites jerks and blacks sensitive??" It shouldn't be dividing the opinions based on race anyway. We're all people, that's what matters.

There's a Michael Vick joke in here somewhere, but that'll probably be considered racist by ESPN.

Harry Potter died and came back to life too. We should totally get a day off work for that too...

Don't know where you work, but I totally get the day off for Christmas. And since Easter falls on a Sunday...yep, off for that too.

No day off for MLK day at my job though.

The day to observe the death of Jesus is Good Friday, not Christmas. No one gets Good Friday off :(
