Redskins coach Mike Shanahan a racist? Rick Reilly says 'No way.' - ESPN
Good article on people being so absurdly quick to try to make themselves look better by accusing people of their own race of racism, regardless of what the facts of the matter are.
Quote:
This week, John Feinstein, the Washington Post columnist, said something that reminds me of a kidney stone I once had. I just couldn't let it pass without some gnashing of teeth.
...
"I think there's racial coding going on here, and it's my belief that that kind of behavior is worth firing a coach for," Feinstein claimed Tuesday. "Dan Snyder's not gonna do it, but I think it's out of control."
...
"The first spin [Shanahan uses] is that [McNabb] doesn't know the terminology for the two-minute offense, i.e., he's stupid," Feinstein opined. "The next day, it's, well, his cardiovascular, he's out of shape, i.e., he's fat." And that's when Feinstein dropped the "racial coding" thing, i.e., Shanahan's a racist.
Just reading those lines drops a person's IQ all the way to wrestling-fan level.
Feinstein is touching a cold stove top here and pretending to burn his finger
