Im as big of a sports fan as the next man but since ive woken up and am aware of the racial undertones and motives behind most things, i cant help but to look at sports sideways now. Its cringworthy seeing the visual of thousands upon thousands of white people cheering for mostly black men to run up and down a court and dunk a basketball or to run and catch footballs. Shyt just doesnt sit right with me anymore. We all know that the only time a white person sees a black person as anything other than a "n1gger" is when he's making money off of him or being entertained by him. The fact that most of the "higher-up" positions(owners,GM's, head coaches) are white/jewish is unsettling also to me. Alot of "others" are living extremely comfortable/rich lives off the blood, sweat and tears of black athletes. Im talking on down to assistant coaches, team doctors/physicians, sports radio/t.v hosts, agents, sports columnists,etc. And most of these positions are NOT held by us. And lets not even mention college athletics where the players arent making a dime. Old white coaches going to urban neighborhoods to recruit young black players that he wouldn't otherwise have anything to do with if he couldnt dunk a ball. And all of that is just the top layer. Ive seen cats compare sports to slavery(especially around NFL Combine time) but im not gonna disrespect our ancestors who went through REAL slavery by making the comparison,BUT i wont knock those of you who do feel that way. So my question is: how do you sports lovers feel about whites being in aww of our athletic prowess yet still not seeing us as equal human beings?
