Re: Syracuse 2021

cletus, (Angus, whichever you prefer) is not being attacked for expressing opinions. It is the crudeness with which he attacked a young freshman wlaxer in a very high pressure situation being attacked by two experienced and very high intensity D girls coming at her with sticks flailing causing her t...

Re: Syracuse 2021

It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles, or where the doer of deeds could have done them better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood, who strives valiantly; who errs and comes sh...

Anyone ever wonder why there so few people who participate at this forum? Could it be that it oozes sanctiimonious judgement of others and belittling statements about their intellect and ability to comprehend. Wow, what a bunch of uppity f**Ks!

So let's never, ever say again that Indians are good lacrosse players because that's racist stereotyping. agreed.

No, Mantum, those statements have very different meanings when someone interprets them as having a different meaniing than what the person saying them meant. It does not make the person saying them racist, it makes the person interpreting them wrong and too quick to ride on their horse, Sanctimoniou...

Am afraid it's you who is not worth having the discussion with, Mantum. Do you really think that I (and most) others don't recognize that it's culture and environment that are the biggest contributing factors to what one group might excel at? Indians are good lacrosse players. Racist? Stereotyping? ...

Re: Race in America - Riots Explode in Minneapolis

Observation isn't racist. Stereotyping is racist. The NBA could be 99% black and "blacks are good basketball players" still wouldn't be true. The NBA has a high percentage of black basketball players would be true. So if an Icelander leaves his first NBA experience (game) and says, "...

Re: Race in America - Riots Explode in Minneapolis

Question: Is observation racist? ie, What percent of the NBA is made up of black players? Is it then racist to comment that blacks are good basketball players based on that observation? Would anyone argue that in general blacks are inclined to be better dancers than whites? In their culture, music, ...

I can't imagine what attendance will be next spring.

No, but you might be able to get a few addit...
