I'm not sure how many different ways i can express just how little the average black person looks to Sharpton or Jackson for leadership or cues. The media loves to give them a platform because they know they will be sensational and push a lot of buttons. Once again, players were voicing this in immediate reaction to the announcement...not after Jackson or Sharpton distributed the official black response or whatever you guys think happens

griese said montoya was out gettin a taco, he got a weeks suspension, he is a football guy anyway, not political correct ususally gets people in trouble these days, dt
As to Griese, yes I agree that political correctness is running wild, but he should have known better than to go this route. Like I said whenever you're dealing with someone who is a very dramatic minority or a first "of their kind" the stakes get dramatically higher.
It would be something like having a field where a born-again Christian is the first born-again Christian in their arena...and an atheist announcer made some sort of comment about them being probably being out speaking in tongues or praying to baby Jesus as a joke. It may be somewhat based in truth, but he should expect some sort of backlash from Christians.
