My Opinion: More reason's to keep politics out of sports

Former NFL Star Shannon Sharpe Says The Hardest Job In America Is Being Black

Here's the video (pertinent portion begins at the 1:50 mark):

                       

I have really had enough with this "ism" shit. So let me get this straight, Shannon "Not So" Sharpe says that he had a talent, worked hard, graduated college and now has a platform to speak. So, he just completely shattered any notion of racism. You know what Shannon's problem is? He is just dumb. In that entire ramble he did not formulate one single complete thought. The reason is, if you listened to it carefully, is that each individual subject of thought was going to lead to a conclusion that didn't add up to racism. So he switched to something else, and then cut that off and switched to something else. Sharpe is a racist. And he simply rambled until he found what he thought was a coherent stopping point. 

This idiot literally got a six-figure salary for  catching a football, and now he gets a six-figure salary to sit around and air his stupid opinions to the world. Yes racism has been getting worse since the first of the year, and mainly against white people. You are nothing but another race baiting POS. You need only look at BLM hatred, the Black Panther hatred, the hatred that came from the Trinity United Church, you know Shannon, the church who's pastor is Reverend Jerimiah Wright, Barack's pastor, who preaches hatred towards white people. You see, racism works both ways. Hatred breeds hatred, no matter the color. What is hampering the Black American you talk about is you listen to and believe race baitor's like Sharpton, Jackson, Holder, JayZ, even Obama, and you tune out and call real successful Black American's like Thomas Sowell, Ben Carson, Herman Cain, Clarence Thomas, Condi Rice, and many others Uncle Tom's and sellouts. If more people read and followed these upstanding black Americans, we wouldn't have many of the problems we have today. And you wouldn't have to spew your racist bullshit. Please answer me this Shannon, what other country would you rather be black in than the United states? Well? And that goes for the LGBTQXYZ community and any other victim group. I don't give a damn what color you are, or your sexual prefrence, just do something positive with your life, step up and help instead of crying the I'm a victim, "wo is me" bullshit.

God gave me a talent, I cultivated and I rose up through the ranks. But even as I became more famous and more financially secure, guess what I still was? Black...

Oh really, well "Guess what", I'm not famous and I'm not well off, God didn't give me the talent he gave you and guess what, I'm still white. I guess I'll have to blame it on God. You pathetic whining bastards make me sick. God gave you the incentive, initiative, and physical ability to do all you want to do and you still bitch. Makes me sick. 

So, according to this moron, no other race has dirt poor people? No one else has to 'rise through the ranks' and prove themselves worthy, except black people? What a joke this asshole is. You know what the hardest job in America is Shannon? It's having your health ripped away, regardless of your race, with a crippling illness and waking up every morning knowing it is going to be a battle just to get through the day and back to sleep again that night. But yeah you go ahead and keep bitching how difficult life is for you. Oh, and speaking of the hardest job in America, on behalf of injured and disabled veterans and those with genuine disabilities, GO F**K YOURSELF!
