Reese went overboard with it.

The biggest travesty and what's getting lost in all of this is the disrespect to Tony Yayo by calling it John Cena gesture

 

[nairdas]

the fact that you calling jt “crying” says everything we need to know about you. There’s a clear double standard here which we have rightfully pointed out.

You’re probably two or three post away from adding the magical “race card” to your commentary.

Maybe I'm naive but I find it hard to believe if Caitlin directly taunted Angel in the same situation she wouldn't get any backlash. Now it might not be as bad as what Angel is getting I will give you that, but she'd definitely get called out for it.

You’re not naïve, youre intentional in thinking Black people are crying when saying “this is a double standard and hypocrisy.” The same Black people who authored ESPN’s segment, celebrating Caitlin’s talk shyt. None of this bothered us either way, but you’re the one saying black folks are crying rather than looking at who cries has caused all this commentary.

Guess what… It ain’t black folks but we know it’s only black folks who are YOUR trigger, so…

I still don’t understand how people with zero athletic bones in their body telling athletes the “so called” proper way to conduct themselves in the midst of competition.

That's what I'm saying. Folks talking about she took it too far. Once again, you do not get to dictate the rules when it comes to trash talk. If you can dish it, you can take it

It sure is here, as this country gives enough evidence of how this hypocrisy graduates the policy and difference in how they respond to Black people doing the same exact thing. There was only one group of people crying after that game. But here you are looking at our response to the over doing it crying when it comes to a Black athlete.

Where is the lie here?

 

[NYC Rebel]

I’m not even going to give ESPN credit for that. The only thing I’m gonna give credit to ESPN for is allowing a black person to author that segment.

All this proves is that we are OK with trash talking, welcoming it as a part of the game regardless of who is doing it.

Its white folks who add qualfiers
