ESPN will cover "Mayweather Jr. tirade" in a bit..

Put it like this if Chad Ochocino did the same sh!t Ben Rothlisberger did at the same time ESPN would have covered Ochocinco way more because of ratings and skin color. ESPN is like a sports tabloid magazine they are not that credible when it comes to certain things. Complete bullsh!t you are trippin with that sh!t. Where are you from to say some fake sh!t like that. That R. Kelly setape was bottlegged and sold on the streets like CD's and mixtapes. GTFOH with no tape. Look at the Ron Artest incident and how it was portrayed as some out of control young black men who ran into the stands for no reason. A white man threw a drink on him not one time did a ESPN analyst say that the white man wrong for throwing that drink. Now why do you think that is? Truth of the matter is that no matter what color anybody is no man should throw a drink on another man and except that man not to do something about it. Between Barry Bonds, Mark McGuwire and Roger Clemens who steriod story ran more, longer and was more vilified? If you answer honestly it would be Barry Bonds and why do you think ESPN did that? Clemens and McGuwire are just as famous espcially Clemens and they both were loved more by the American people. So why show Bonds more? You're completely wrong about the Ron Artest incident. They absolutely crucified the fan who threw the drink, and by the way the first fan Artest attacked was not the fan who threw the drink. ESPN and it's commentators are constantly harping on fans who get drunk and do stupid things. Clemens is in the middle of being vilified to a level Bonds didn't, and his story isn't even halfway done. McGwire hasn't been that bad, but that's more because he stays out of the media and says nothing, so they have nothing to cover. Bonds was breaking the home run record while all his suspicions were coming out, that's why it was such a long process with him. Are you kidding trying to pretend Roethlisberger hasn't been heavily criticized? He's been covered and criticized as much if not more than Pacman Jones, who has way more incidents than Roethlisberger ever has. I don't know where people are getting this idea that ESPN is harsher to black athletes than white athletes, that's insane. They're barely talking about Floyd's rant, they're talking about Roethlisberger more than Floyd, and Roethlisberger's crap is over.

Proof of the bold please. Like I said more black people clown Sharpton than respect him. Obama is no dummy why not hire one of your critics and make him a puppet. Strange that once Sharpton get a job from Obama he no longer critcizes Obama. Now in Washington, D.C. which has a population of 600K of which as of 2009 54% are black yet all the amount of people Sharpton could draw to his 2010 March on Washington rally estimated at 5,000 people. Yeah Sharpton really has a lot support!!!! The proof is the fact that Obama appointed him to that role. Obama is no dummy. And with regards to the part about Obama appointing him to silence a critic, that's all heresay. Follow your own advise and prove to us that Obama did what you accuse him of doing.

Didn't watch the stream; did Mayweather say anything about wanting to fight Pacquiao?

majority? i see more black ppl supporting them as opposed to denouncing them. sharpton is just president obama's ambassador to the black community. now why would the president appoint an ambassador that has little or no support to the demographic in question? actually, lemme rephrase that... do you know more than the president?

Basically what you just said is that no matter how many times the majority of black people stand up and denounce Sharpton and Jackson since that is who TV executives want what they say matter for black people. Can't you see how fvcked up that looks and sounds? majority? i see more black ppl supporting them as opposed to denouncing them. sharpton is just president obama's ambassador to the black community. now why would the president appoint an ambassador that has little or no support to the demographic in question? actually, lemme rephrase that... do you know more than the president?

They were crying before he got elected. Damn can you imagine how they felt the things said when Obama got elected. Can someone please explain to me what some people mean when they say they America to go back to its glorious past? I mean hell less than 50 years ago black people couldn't even drink at the same water fountain as white people and ride at the front of the bus. those ignorant middle america white dudes were crying their asses off. what's sad is that they actually feel there's a difference between bush and obama.

Been awhile since I seen it, but I do remember ole boys crying. It was funny and pathetic all at once. But you know what they mean when they say that. They wish they could just push minorities around with no repercussions. I see thread posters in my local online paper say it all the time. "I wish it was like my daddys day".

Is that the one where the white guys were crying when Obama got elected? They were crying before he got elected. Damn can you imagine how they felt the things said when Obama got elected.

I hope Al has an opinion on this Floyd matter as well. lol that would be a sight to see.

why not bring them up? anytime there's a high profile case where someones polished toenails were stepped on, they show up. like i told the other guy, whether you deny it or not, they do represent african-americans in the eyes of many that's why they get face time when these types of issues are on the table.

Since the Native Americans land was invaded everything in this country has been about race that is has been and the way it will always be. I have a problem with people denying this and acting suprised by this. How many of yall have seen the HBO documentary "Right America Feeling Wronged" If you have no way people can say because Obama was elected racism doesn't exsist. It had people on there who still thought that women shouldn't vote!!!!! Is that the one where the white guys were crying when Obama got elected?

So they pick on Floyd because of his skin color? They likely called him out because he talks smack, is being publicly perceived as the one caused the biggest boxing match in a long, long, time to not happen, and now is saying negative comments that can very easily be seen as racist against perhaps the most popular boxer in the world. Plus, Floyd doesn't care what people think about him, so he says what he wants. These other top athletes mess up and then keep quiet about the "incident" when they are asked about it and have their PR agents give money up so that stuff stays hush-hush. You know Floyd isn't paying out any extra cash for a guy to smooth things over for him.....instead he goes on U-Stream and airs his dirty laundry....what did he think would happen anyways? ESPN did do a piece on the Big Ben rape thing and it was all a "no comment" issue. There was no R Kelly video of the act uploaded on the web to be used against him either. Floyd wanted his comments to be heard and it got him what he wanted, he is the talk of the town right? That is what he wanted to happen Put it like this if Chad Ochocino did the same sh!t Ben Rothlisberger did at the same time ESPN would have covered Ochocinco way more because of ratings and skin color.

I guess ESPN is probably racist....since over half of their staff are former NBA and NFL stars and they toute Kobe, Lebron, Tiger, and Mayweather as the best players in their respective sports......I guess I see the pattern.

Nobody gives a **** about Poochie being a congressman Nobody!

it seems like the only time boxing is coverd on espn is when it has something to do with mayweather I noticed that too bro, espn covers floyd about him being a coward and him being a racist, what a great way to be covered by one of the biggest media in the whole world. :lol1:

there's always an ignorant black person that the white news reporters always talk to when there's plenty of smart and informed black people around.. that ignorant black person today is floyd.

rolf all the ESPN viewers gonna be laughing at manny LAUGHING at pac? Beat! Beat! Drums!: Actor-Congressman Manny Pacquiao's glory shines even more * September 3rd, 2010 4:46 am ET Brief Sidebar on Poetic Intervention, Hollywood, California - "Character and personal force are the only investments that are worth anything," said Walter Whitman (May 31, 1819 - March 26, 1892), an American poet, essayist, journalist, and humanist who published his poem "Beat! Beat! Drums!" as a patriotic rally call for the North America. But, Floyd "Money-Pretty Boy" Mayweather,Jr.'s recent acerbic tirades against Filipino headline celebrity, Manny Pacquiao, calling the latter a "midget" and etcetera ,are nothing more than just beating the drums for entertainment, however offensive they are. Sure , his character is one such of an abomination, which may have gone to the lowest level of the abyss. For Maywearther, Jr., it is his way of patriotic rally for all his fans. But, whatever verbal attacks Mayweather, Jr. has, one thing is clear he has broken the boundaries of poetic form of entertainment. It's just Pacquiao's entertaining power has become a threat to the man from Grand Rapids. Enviousness is what gets in the head of this self-righteous monicker - under the prompting of his sanctified name - "Money-Pretty Boy", all because Pacquiao's rising popularity in the mainstream America may have railroaded over his antics, even over his best at the "Dancing with the Stars." Conversely, give thanks to Money-Pretty Boy of his vulgarity because Pacquiao's glory shines even more...lifting, in fact, even much higher.

Yeah ok. I got some beach from property in North Dakota to sell you if you believe that So they pick on Floyd because of his skin color?
