November 27, 200817 yr That's just ridiculous. How can you accuse a guy of being racist if the entire team is made up of African-Americans? I don't understand what's going on in those peoples' heads. Just b/c you (or your kid) weren't good enough to make the team, you can't just start making baseless accusations. Racism when all of his players are black??? Give me a break...
November 27, 200817 yr Before the meeting, Kelly said he felt Tidwell discriminated against him and senior Ayron Worthington, who wasn't at the meeting, because they wore braids. But he acknowledged that two other players who were not cut also wear them. How can any rational thinking human say that with a straight face? How can you not read that and realize these this is crazy? I've heard guys claim the coach is an idiot or he doesn't like me when getting cut, but this is crazy.

I've seen it thousands of time. You call someone racist, you get your way most of the time.
November 28, 200817 yr QUOTE (shipps @ Nov 27, 2008 -> 09:24 AM) This is like a SNL Weekend update story. Its more like the skit when Bill Russell hosted (I think it was Russell), and he complains about being disciplined by his mother (Garrett Morris). "Mom, is it because I'm Black?"
November 30, 200817 yr Both McCullough and Wilson called for a boycott of classes and basketball games, and pickets at the administration building..... McCullough said he would ask students to boycott in a rotation so that they don't miss consecutive days and fall behind in their classes. of course, ditch class. that'll teach this coach a lesson!
