Helen Thomas: "Say One Word About Israel and You're Anti Semitic!"

[BrooklynBomber]

I always thought they made fun of her because Palin's a white Gentile woman.

Why do commentators like Teddy Atlas, Al Bernstein, Steve Farhood, Max Kellerman and writers like David Rosenberg, Eric Raskin, William Dettloff, etc constantly discredit and often sarcastically ridicule every good non-Jewish white boxer?

Why do those commentators always say the white guy has some advantage (youth, experience, size, etc) when the fight is starting? Why did Bernstein go on and on about how Ben Tackie was old and shot at age 30 when he fought Hatton, but never mentioned Tackie being old and shot when he fought Kendall Holt five years later at age 35?

Since BJ Flores is fair in his commentary during the Klitschko fights, why can't Teddy Atlas be? Since Antonio Tarver, Manny Steward, George Foreman and Fran Charles are fair when commenting during fights involving white boxers, why can't Bernstein, Kellerman and Farhood be fair?

Since black posters on boxingscene like SecondzOut and Mangler are always fair in the comments they post about white boxers, why can't daggum and Benny Leonard need to constantly discredit and ridicule them?

First of all, you are pick and choozing your examples.
But this does not even bother me, because frankly, who gives a ****?
And besides, why does it never occur to you that maybe these commentators are under pressure to say certain things, because in our culture we can not openly say that a boxer of our own ethnicity is great, especially if we both are white. Its the reality of it, and maybe one day we will grow over it.

But when you sit down and think, who cares what these people like Atlas or Kellerman say, because in the end they are proven wrong. Maybe instead of trying to find some world conspiracy, you just sit down and think what will that achieve. And maybe before you accuse HBO of some evil mega plan to bring down klitschkos, you will remember that after Mayweather and Pacquiao they have been the most showed active boxers on that network. But times have changed, Klitschkos are european, and that means they can not accomodate to the US, its harsh, but its true

PS on bolded, these guys are NOT fair, especially Foreman
