I was watching a Football Life - Randall Cunningham and they were talking about how he grew up a USC fan due to his brother Sam Bam Cunningham. Randall was not recruited by USC. The show goes on about how blacks just didn't get a chance to be a QB at a school like USC in those days.

Sounds good, right?

Except in "those days" Rodney Fucking Peete was the USC quarterback. And Jimmy Johnson, noted Black guy, was a QB on a Rose Bowl winning team for SC in the 60's.

    Did you guys hear about that one time a black guy made a statement that was incorrect? What's with these black people anyways?

    I don't see causation in this one.

    Is he well spoken?

    Yes. And he is articulate.

    You act like the great migration of homoerectus out of the african continent never happened.

    Obviously racism doesn't exist then.

    It's racist to not have a QB of non-white ethnicity now.

    My point was twofold - it was plain sloppy to say that about USC and if you're going to make a point about the lack of Black quarterbacks in the mid to late 80's, why would you single out a school that had a Black QB in the 60's and had one at the time that Randall was being recruited. A school that integrated the Crimson Tide by going down there and kicking their ass with a bunch of Black players.

    The guys that made the film were well spoken and had a lot of natural talent but clearly need more time in the film room

    While I agree with your overall poont here, Cunningham came about 3 years before Rodney Robinson Peete.

    honk em

    Facts are negotiable when discussing racism.

    So what you're saying is the coaching staff took 3 years to get rid of their racist tendencies?

    No, I'm saying Race needs to consult his research minions before making poasts about race.

    With some stuff created and produced by the millennial generation, history just can't be art unless it's rewritten. Whether it's wrong or not, biographical fiction should be expected for the study of unmentionables such as racism and religion.
