All the talk of judging by the “content of their character” goes out the window for some, when they can judge based on race. I hear Blacks always talking about not wanting to be judged based on their race, but then they go and root based on race. If their boss is White, they don’t want their boss pulling for their White co-worker to do better than them. But now we have this football game coming up tomorrow and the hypocrisy is glowing across the nation.

Suddenly we see not only hypocrisy in the choices of who some Blacks will cheer for and why, but also hypocrisy in the media. What if Dungy and Smith had lost in the playoffs and a reporter wanted to do a story on Whites cheering for coaches based on race? Oh then it would be racist. But to trumpet from the highest hills when Black people want to cheer based on race is A-OK.

The article mentions something that folks should think about. It was mentioned by the radio personality mentioned in the quote above.

…
“In today’s society, race is still an issue, even though we try to say it’s not as big a deal anymore.”
..

Now just how will Blacks help America to overcome this issue of race, the issue Liberal Blacks cry about daily, if we continue making it the big issue ourselves? Whites can never get away with playing on race the way Blacks do today. Maybe Jesse Lee Peterson is correct when he says the biggest racists today in America are Blacks.

update 2/4/2007 1:09PM: Today Ray Lewis was asked by ESPN’s Stewart Scott about this matter of having two Black coaches at the Super Bowl. He provided a great response, in saying that what really matters is that these are 2 coaches that love Jesus and that is what makes them great. How they treat their families and are great role models. He mentioned the racial aspect is a great milestone, however what really matters is that these are two great men, regardless of their race. He pointed out that because of the lives they live they are great, it’s great for them to be there and it would be so no matter what race they are.

And with that statement, we see what really matters to many in America. Because it is rare that you hear people cheering for the CHRISTIAN COACH. Instead many people would rather dwell on skin color. It shows you what really matters most them.

As Jesus said, you know them by the fruit that comes from their lips.

And folks I think that’s all that needs to be said!

update 2/4/2007 10:16PM: After the game, Tony Dungy said he and coach Smith are more proud that they are Christians, that did it “the Lord’s way” than that they are Black. Amen brother!
