Mr. WEO Posted October 27, 2014 Posted October 27, 2014 "a report that suggested Wilson was not "black enough" for his teammates, which also created a divide." "About me not being black enough, I don't even know what that means," he said http://www.nfl.com/news/story/0ap3000000418578/article/russell-wilson-seahawks-more-together-than-ever
SmokinES3 Posted October 27, 2014 Posted October 27, 2014 I saw Mike Wilbon talking about this being a legitimate problem. Reminded me why I don't watch ESPN if I can avoid it.
JESSEFEFFER Posted October 27, 2014 Posted October 27, 2014 And Andre Reed wasn't "black enough" for Ronnie Harmon. This is a real issue in the locker room and some sort of workable balance needs to exist, imo.
NoSaint Posted October 27, 2014 Posted October 27, 2014 I saw Mike Wilbon talking about this being a legitimate problem. Reminded me why I don't watch ESPN if I can avoid it. it seems like reports are that in the seahawks locker room this may be a legit thing. im not saying its smart, but espn might not be wrong in reporting its existence.
A Dog Named Kelso Posted October 27, 2014 Posted October 27, 2014 Maybe we should take a flyer on Lynch: http://finance.yahoo.com/news/marshawn-lynch-doesnt-talk-pete-134700710.html

It very well could be, you're right. I just didn't care for Wilbon speaking on behalf of all black people to break it down for us "white folk". Edited October 27, 2014 by SmokinES3
Doc Posted October 27, 2014 Posted October 27, 2014 Sadly, it is a problem for some. Charles Barkley commented on how stupid it is.
Big C Posted October 27, 2014 Posted October 27, 2014 TJ Graham just oozes street cred. You saw him give Stephon the bizness, didn't you?
infernus Posted October 27, 2014 Posted October 27, 2014 He definitely knows what it means, but good on him for refusing to add fuel to that ****-fire
Max997 Posted October 27, 2014 Posted October 27, 2014 Is he supposedly an uncle Tom like future in 8 mile?
Billy in 4C Posted October 27, 2014 Posted October 27, 2014 93% of African Americans voted for Obama in the last election. How is it an issue exactly? The significant majority of African Americans overlooked the mixed race "issue" on one of the most important decisions that one can make.

It think it a personality thing.
clayboy54 Posted October 27, 2014 Posted October 27, 2014 93% of African Americans voted for Obama in the last election. And how it that working out for us?
Cugalabanza Posted October 27, 2014 Posted October 27, 2014 Wow, that's some crazy ****. Maybe they should sign Flavor Flav to play QB. I know that the majority of the players don't feel that way. It's just too stupid. If there's any truth to it, I'm sure it's something that one guy said and was blown up.
johnwalter Posted October 27, 2014 Posted October 27, 2014 this thread is going nowhere. close it before it closes TBD.
buffaloboyinATL Posted October 27, 2014 Posted October 27, 2014 I heard Kiko Alonso is not white enough for some, I hope that doesn't create any tension in the locker room.
Mr. WEO Posted October 27, 2014 Author Posted October 27, 2014 (edited) Maybe some of the Seattle guys would prefer Mike Vick as their QB. Maybe he is of the appropriate...hue, for them. In other news, I heard Eric Wood and Kyle Williams complaining that Orton wasn't "white enough"... Edited October 27, 2014 by Mr. WEO
