William C. Rhoden the article of that piece.The New York Times are Floyd's people? News to me.
And tell me which undrafted black NBA player in similar circumstances did what Lin did and hardly receive coverage? I usually hear crickets when people asks this question and there is no answer.
But like I said, it's not surprising that it's mainly Blacks and Floyd's fans that are in agreement with him.

Re: Floyd Mayweather in another racial controversy
And how am I a bigot? I pointed out the obvious. It's mainly FLoyd, his fans, and many blacks that had a problem with Lin's race and the coverage he received. You guys turned it into race and nothing but race. Those are facts.Do you really not get that you're being a huge bigot right now? The irony is astounding . . . .William C.
