“WOW..I knew some folks believe..'­They All Look ALIKE'.
Confusing Black Women with Black MEN???
.....Congr­atulations­, YOU are extreme with your stereotyping!

btw for your benefit;
She is Absolutely Beautiful!!
Rodman is NOT”

“Your Tailor called...
.He said your White Hood is ready!!!”

“I'M SO glad that little detail was caught...
Other than that everything in 1960's America is accurate.
We all know there were only 4 Black People alive then.
Two elevator operators. One Black woman who was dating a 'Mad Man'.
And of Course Martin Luther King, Jr......”

“Shawty?..
.......You are trying TOO HARD!!!!”

“Those AD's and ANYONE who defends racism has NO COURAGE!!!”

“I have noticed that almost every week you are featuring
video of some Brave young athlete being maimed in a most
gruesome manner on the field of play. What is your fascination
with the worst of all outcomes in the games we play?
I find this trend in your 'Sports' section troubling. Should we be
shielded and delude ourselves to belive that these injuries do
not occur. Absolutely not!! But neither should you cover certain
events merely for their rubber-necking, horrific nature.

If you continue to do this I hope you have the journalistic integrity
to follow-up and inform your readership about the recovery and
courage these young people show to get back to the field of play.”

“Gay or not..I could care less...

This guy is an overly dramatic Cabaret Singer. That's it!!!
He should go to Broadway where his talents are better suited.”

“This was indeed catchable. But if you ask ANYone who played the game they will tell you one of the most difficult catches to make is the one where the ball is coming directly over the top of your head: as this one is. Furthermore in this same game Mr Edwards made a catch in heavy traffic at the 10 yard line and bulled his way through three defenders to score and give the Jets a lead that they did not relinquish.

Mr. Edwards is becoming branded with the 'bad receiver' label when nothing could be further from the truth. His first game with the Jets after a trade during a short week he made some amazing catches and was solely responsible for the Jets remaining in the game verses the Dolphins. Did he have some drops with the Browns/ Indeed he did. But drops are a function of how often one is thrown to and also the quality of the offense which relies heavily on the skill of the quarterback. I think we can all agree Cleveland has neither a quality offense, QB or for that matter a quality franchise.

One more thing? Why are WRs saddled with their dropped pass, yet QB rarely have to be reminded of their numerous over/under throws??..­.JAY CUTLER for instance!!!”

“TRUE....TR­UE”

“**********­*********K­.W.R.*****­**********­****
Kanye Was Right!!!!”

“It's sad that so many use this hard working/ac­complished young mans actions here to rationalize their own small, limited and ignorant world view and also to perpetuate stereotypes.

Anyone who has watched college football and most certainly if you've watched FSU you know that their offensive line coach, Rick Trickett, teaches/stresses this technique which has become known as the 'Freeze Play'. The purpose of the freeze is to help draw attention to a defensive line violation. Typically all five offensive lineman remain in their stances throughout the play. This has occurred several times this season; effectively, might I add. In this case there was obviously miscommunication between the offensive line(the center) and the QB. or Mr. Sanders saw something and assumed the center and QB saw it as well and they obviously didn't.”

“Regardless of the year;
Doesn't always seem that there
is only ONE Interesting
Black person in the country(or the world)
per annum????

“Instead of perpetuating amateur psychoanalysis of an entire race, consider the hypocrisy that those who have never been embraced by the animal rights movement see. Those folks witness many in animal rights leadership who are blind to human suffering and will overlook this suffering to save an animal.

For example a few years ago PETA had a brazen and heartless campaign that compared the slavery of African Americans to the plight of animals. Google it!!”

“So let me get this straight. I make a definitive statement AGAINST stereotypes and presumptions about individuals based on negative perceptions of groups that those individuals are associated, and your response is that I SOMEHOW have a worped view???!!!­..
,,,,,,,,,,­.WOW!!”

“I feel Lambert was attempting to shock in an effort to deflect from a performance that was abysmal. Frankly, I am more offended by his lack of respect for the art than anything he did with his or anyone else's crotch. Before we get into Madonna v Adam Lambert. Lets remember Janet Jackson(who has never been regarded as a wild iconoclast as rock/hiphop/r&b stars go) has been crucified for what was essentially a costume mistake at the Super Bowl years ago.

One point no one seems to recognize is that Madonna(love her or hate her music) and other performers who have gotten passes from the networks in the past, generally have banked credibility because of their ability to move the ratings needle and ring cash registers. They are tried and true STARS and they get the benefit of the doubt because of their established bonafides.

Adam Lambert does not come close to this status. Thus far All he has done is win a talent competition.”

“Your assumption that a league like the NBA that draws the best players from nearly every continent on the face of the planet would be comprised of players that are ALL lazy, soft, noncompetitive and willingly allow themselves to be embarrassed by their opponents nightly flies in the face of common sense.

Furthermore, allowing yourself to fall prey to bad information and stereotypes will ultimately lead you down the path toward arrested developmen­t..
...Good Luck”

“"....When Melvina(Melvina Shields-their common ancestor) was just 6-years-old, she was sent to a 200 acre farm in Rex, Georgia. At 15, she was 'IMPREGNATED'(?) by a White Man, presumed to be Charles Marion Shields...­."

MRS. MELVINA SHIELDS WAS NOT IMPREGNATED. SHE WAS RAPED.....­RAPED!!!

It's amazing and socially irresponsible how this detail is intentionally overlooked and glossed over in cases like this such as the Sally Hemmings Thomas Jefferson saga.
I wonder if Ms. Smolenyak will apologize for the criminal/inhuman actions of HER Great Great Great.....­.Granfathe­r?....”

“After the photo shoot clad in leather/al­ligator/cr­ocodile that evening on the way to her
steak/seaf­ood/chicke­n/duck/lam­b/pork loin/ dinner that
very evening in Manhattan/­Chicago/At­lanta/LA/S­an Francisco
she walked by/over/un­der/around a multitude of homeless citizens
with a sense of fulfillment that she had made the world a better place..for PETA
and by scoring a multi-platform media advert for her upcoming vampire flick.”

“'Pop' music is not a genre of Music. It is a designation that denotes the popularity of an artist, based on sales and their ability to attract a diverse audience. Beyonce is a Soul Singer.

I am continually amazed at the lack of knowledge some people have when it comes to the history of American Music. Beyonce Knowles comes out of a LONG tradition of African Music that traces its roots back to the Slave ships, plantations, The Southern Black Church, Jazz and Juke Joints, Freedom Songs. Blues, Rock & Roll, Rhythm & Blues and Soul. They are all connected. I'll never forget my wifes and my freshman year at Yale we had a cadre of friends that actually thought Elvis, The Beatles, The Rolling Stones, Pink Floyd, hell EVEN KISS(lol) and the like actually invented Rock and Roll. They had never heard of Bo Didley, Chuck Berry, Big Mama Thornton and Howlin Wolf.”

“You have to forgive me Sonny
...... I'mm SOO OLD and uninformed”

“Y'all are straight Stalking Sen Burris at this point. You do realize that RIGHT!!?? You sit here in judgment of his dialect and the way he speaks and not long ago you accused him of not helping an elderly woman off of a plane based on a tip which turned out not to be reliable.

The guy has stood up for vital things like a Public Option when folks like Lieberman and Blanche Lincoln who are literally on the dole for Big Pharma et al barely get a mention until they have already plunged the stake firmly in the BACKS of those who support the progressive agenda.

Get Real...”

“*KUDOS*

I made curiously similar comments concerning this whole MJ book
fiasco but I assume my more pointed comments were not deemed editorially germane.
Boteach has lost all credibility on this subject after his opportunistic and disingenuous handling of the Michael Jackson issue.”

“*PREACH & TEACH*”

“What is 'Amusing' is your reaction to initially being called on your own inconsistencies. You lurch and flounder about and feign ignorance and attribute your ignorance of the term 'BOY' to you being a Brit. I live in London. I have lived and worked here for quite sometime. Every aware Brit of a certain station understands the history of that term.

As for your view on race in the culture; An evolved world view begins with ones understanding of where he/she fits in the world. If you assume you have no racial or ethnic heritage, as you plainly state, what are we to assume is your view of race in society??”

“I LOVE IT!!.
..Don't be so quick to anger my friends. I meant no harm to your notions of the the way things should be. I'm simply a voice of truth in the wilderness. Quite frankly, I expected a tad more toughness from folks who have had so much cultural control...­.For So Long!!!
......*SMH­*..LMAO”
