Adam Posted February 1, 2007 Share Posted February 1, 2007 Their reference to Martin Luther King on their front page is absolutely shameless. He was referring to things a lot more important than the freaking super bowl. The superbowl is very unimportant in contrast Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RuntheDamnBall Posted February 1, 2007 Share Posted February 1, 2007 Their reference to Martin Luther King on their front page is absolutely shameless. He was referring to things a lot more important than the freaking super bowl. The superbowl is very unimportant in contrast It is and it isn't. What's equality if not the idea that everyday dreams are attainable for all, so long as one works hard? At the same time, I recognize what you're saying wrt the struggle for rights and a much more difficult struggle with life and death consequences, vs. the game of football that's comparatively fluffy. It's pretty cheap for ESPN to reference him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JimBob2232 Posted February 1, 2007 Share Posted February 1, 2007 It seems that ESPN has been very desirous of a black head coach to do well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Equal opportunity is found in the hiring of the coaches, not in their achievements. It was about getting a chance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
