Idiotic Comment Needlessly Repeated by a Sideline Reporter Babe

So yeah, during the Indy-New Orleans NFL game, the idiotic sideline reporter lady tells a story about Indy coach Tony Dungy. Turns out a bunch of professors at Dungy’s daughter’s college think that Dungy winning the Super Bowl as a coach is equivalent to blacks getting voting rights. (Dungy being black and all.) Yeah, I just don’t see it. I almost would have to think that is the one of the dumbest, most racist comments I’ve heard by a non-race baiter. Is a black coach winning a Super Bowl really that important? No, definitely not. Dungy’s skin color doesn’t mean a dang thing. Remember, it was a white quarterback that played the game with both black and white players. Then again, there have been 40 other Super Bowls, with a white coach each time. Does a black coach mean that much to black people? Who knows? But remember, it is a sporting event. I don’t think it really equates to truly life-altering events, events that change the lives of more than just the players and the employees of a football team. Focusing on race is racist. That idea may be obvious, but it is usually forgotten by black commentators. Idiotic statements don’t mean much, unless they are praised by people who don’t think of what the statement actually means. I will give these commentators the benefit of the doubt. Maybe these guys would have changed their quotes, revised what they said, like politicians do all the time. At least, I would hope so because this was a dumb comment.
