This. I read along and thought, I'm bound to see him say he can't be racist because he has Black friends. Tommy Potatohead didn't disappoint. Although, to be fair I thought the quote would be, "Uh-uh, no way I'm a racist. I have friends that are ni- uh, I mean Black."

Now are they really "friends?" Or are they folk who traditionally "worked for the family?" Or (and this is my guess) folks who when he pesters them yet again, nod their heads when he asks, "we're still friends right?" They only agree because hey, the family is powerful and petty.

Or were they on a scholarship, under his authority to run wind sprints in practice pads and live games televised on Saturday, all for their performances to be replayed and analyzed by Kirk Herbstreit?

Simpletons think everyone they're talking to is a simpleton too. Unlike Coach Dumberville, the rest of us actually had to attend classes, learn the material AND prove we knew it in testing. It's an injustice that anyone like him is clogging a seat in our Senate.

Injustice. He should be sitting in a backwoods outhouse somewhere putting his lifelong contributions to society into the proper perspective. That's a plop, no fizz.

You know I could beat the brakes off of him for that remark alone.
