#414. The Reality of Cook County

Black people love life under Mein Obama, the General Zod of Black people the world over. Regardless of the sorrowful state of the economy and the massive job loss for Black people, the admiration that Black people display for Obama will never cease.

More importantly Zod-Obama has empowered the most diverse cabinet in history with a plethora of color that no amount of bleach could ever impair:

"There are those who will never accept that and who seem to think that white males have a monopoly on merit. For them, this entire diversity accounting system is silly and even offensive. They insist that staffing a Cabinet should be like picking a doctor, where you choose the best person regardless of race or background. It's easy to say that when many of the people in government look like you."

No, when you go to a doctor, Black people prefer that that doctor look like them as well, regardless of their merit. Had Michael Jackson not practiced this logically line of thinking, he might still be with us today:

"Michael Jackson’s personal physician will be charged with manslaughter within the next two weeks, a law enforcement source told FOXNews.com."

Of course, no discussion of the greatness of Mein Obama could be complete without mentioning his move to anointing into paid government positions numerous Black people as Czars. Attorney General Eric Holder famously challenged white America (those cowards) to a debate about race:

"Race, Holder said, "is an issue we have never been at ease with and, given our nation's history, this is in some ways understandable. ... If we are to make progress in this area, we must feel comfortable enough with one another and tolerant enough of each other to have frank conversations about the racial matters that continue to divide us."

In his speech, Holder urged people of all races to use Black History Month as a chance for honest discussion of racial matters, including issues of health care, education and economic disparities. He also used more blunt language.

"Though this nation has proudly thought of itself as an ethnic melting pot, in things racial we have always been and I believe continue to be, in too many ways, essentially a nation of cowards," Holder said."

A debate on race? That would probably mean Hate Facts would have to be brought into the equation and in polite society, that is just unacceptable, the truth be damned!

However, the cowards that are white people were presented with the disgraced former Czar of green jobs, Mr. Van Jones, and an interesting argument, as he said:

“You’ve never seen a Columbine done by a black child. Never. They always say, ‘We can’t believe it happened here. We can’t believe it was these suburban white kids.’ It’s only them. Now, a black kid might shoot another black kid. He’s not going to shoot up the whole school."

Now, you cowards who might be reading this, prepare to engage Attorney General Holder and the rest of the people who fall lock-step into formation behind Zod-Obama with the reality of Cook County, where a veritable Columbine happens daily in the streets:

"Chicago police geared up to provide extra security at Fenger High School on Monday as they reviewed a graphic amateur video showing a student beaten to death with wooden two-by-fours.

The nearly three-minute video, shot by a girl who attends Fenger, captured the gruesome melee as it unfolded. Derrion Albert, 16, is seen being struck then stumbling to the ground; teenagers then continued to viciously punch, kick and strike him with the wooden boards. The additional evidence is aiding the investigation, Chicago police said."

Ah, Chicago, the proud home of Zod-Obama, where in 2008 more murders were committed in the confines of that glorious city than soldiers were killed in Iraq:

Combine the two stories, and the whole 2008 picture — the picture unpainted by members of the media — is made clear:

• 314 U.S. soldiers died in Iraq;
• 509 people were murdered in Chicago.

Chicago is roughly 33 percent white, 33 percent Black and 33 Hispanic (okay, Mexican - but Black people don't like to acknowledge that they are now the #3 most populace racial group in America), yet this wonderful racial trifecta hardly correlates into a peaceful utopia (in 2009):

"Since January, according to the Chicago Police Department, one in 10 homicide victims has been 16 years old or younger. Since the last school year began, an estimated 45 Chicago public school students have been murdered, the majority of whom had no gang or criminal affiliation. According to the Chicago Sun Times, Chicago is also home to four of the 25 most dangerous neighborhoods in the country. In many instances, the elderly are being murdered in their own homes, women are being raped and killed coming home from work, and children are being shot - at an alarming rate - while riding their bikes, playing in the park, standing on the street or coming home from school.

Chicago Police Department said that, since January, more than 280 murders have occurred on the streets of Chicago, the majority of which have been with a firearm."

It would be rude to stop there, because Mr. Holder is correct, a national debate on race is vital to understanding the core problems of our nation and, alas, Van Jones was wrong, as Columbine didn't transpire on streets of Chicago over the Fourth of July, but a full-blown reenactment of Mogadishu did:

"The Chicago Tribune - which tracks murders in Chicago on a monthly basis - reported that July 9th, when one woman was strangled and another six people shot to death, was the deadliest day of 2009. During the 4th of July weekend - the bloodiest weekend to date - there were at least 63 shootings and one stabbing, resulting in the loss of 11 lives.

The ethnic breakdown of the victims and the perpetrators is also disturbing. In 2009, 88 percent of the murder victims were male and 78 percent of those victims were black. In 2008, when 511 murders were committed in Chicago, 74 percent of the victims were black and 76 percent of the perpetrators were also black."

Barack Obama's adopted home town, where he spent so many years as a community organizer is awash in the blood of Black people, at the hands of Black people. The building of the great racial bridge that would forever change Black people's fate in America - Zod-Obama's election - has failed to materialize.

Black school children are constantly under attack by other school children in Chicago, a horrifying problem that white people in St. Louis recently were exposed to on a bus, as the lust for violence is migrating to wherever Black people can be found:

"Chicago police officers secure the scene of yet another slaying. The city is setting a grim record this year and many of the victims are young people, as CBS News correspondent Dean Reynolds reports.

Thirty-two Chicago public school students have been killed so far this school year, according to the Chicago Police Department.

And what is almost as disconcerting is the adjustment the that city - and even the children themselves - seem to have made to this uncommon carnage."

The always interesting Drudge Report (Drudgereport.com) has been inundated with truculent images of Black people of late, from Serena Williams, Boise State, Kanye West, St. Louis bus beatings and now the nightmarish sight of Black people attacking a Black student - a straight A student - and beating him to death:

"This is the hard lesson some students at Fenger High School have to deal with after a day of learning. For them it's a hard lesson of reality on the streets.

Thursday after school, two rival gangs got into a fight three blocks from the high school.

In all four students were beaten in that melee -- one was released from the hospital Friday morning.

While police continue their investigation, some students say they don't want to go back to Fenger next week.

Rival gang members have been fighting for a month -- and each time one of their fellow classmates is injured.

No knives and no guns were used in Thursday's fight. Just fists, feet and boards."

Mein Obama failed as a community organizer in Chicago, as evidenced by the community he left behind in Chicago when he sought the US Senator seat in 2004. Van Jones failed in his attempt to denigrate white people as monopoly-holders in the Columbine massacre card, as any viewing of the local nightly news would show. Attorney General Holder has failed in his efforts to stem the growing tide of MARs and white people who are prepared for that national debate on race.

Each moment that ticks by that we as a nation refuse to confront the severity of the problem, more innocent lives like Mr. Albert in Chicago and Michael Jackson, will be lost.

Chicago is a wonderful city, as anyone who saw that metropolis act as a stand-in for Gotham City in the 2008 Hollywood mega-hit "The Dark Knight" could tell you.

However, Stuff Black People Don't Like dishearteningly includes the city that Zod-Obama cut his organizing teeth upon, as the reality of Cook County is beginning to cause those cowards that Mr. Holder caustically dismissed in February of 2009, realize Pre-Obama America wasn't so bad after all. If disingenuous white liberals and crusading white pedagogues ever realize that same reality, well... the chance of that happening is about the same as the Cubs winning the World Series.

Update: Youtube is deleting all videos of the horrible beating in Chicago. Click here to see the tragic death. You will need to verify your age.

#641. United Nations Declaring Rape a Tool of War

The United Nations is an organization dedicated to helping colored people, especially Black people, on a global scale and simultaneously dedicated to making white people pay for this humanitarian effort.

Recently, the United Nations has decided to debate whether or not rape should be included considered a tool of war, as nations in Africa are seeing an epidemic of rape in war-torn countries:

"Beyond climate change, nuclear proliferation and other hot topics of this month's annual U.N. gathering of world leaders, the international body will address another threat to humanity: the epidemic of rape in conflict-afflicted areas, especially the Democratic Republic of the Congo.

Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton, who appeared genuinely moved after her August visit to rape victims in eastern Congo, is expected to chair a special U.N. Security Council session at the end of the month to review U.N. efforts to curb the epidemic.

"Meeting with survivors of rape, which is now used increasingly as a tool of war, was shattering," Mrs. Clinton told a New York audience Friday. "The atrocities described to me distill evil to its basest form. These are crimes against humanity. They don't just harm a single individual, or a single family, or village or group. They shred the fabric that weaves us together as human beings. This criminal outrage against women must be stopped."

Contrary to disingenuous white liberals - who believe racist white babies are the pre-eminent threat to the safety of General Zod-Obama and his new America - the greatest threat to peace and stability, according to our Secretary of State, is rape.

It had been hoped that when Pre-Obama America was defeated, the undeclared race war that Civil Rights activists had been waging against every institution in America would end. After all, the nation had just elected overwhelmingly a post-racial president in Mein Obama, who would bring about a new understanding of race and an age of nirvana for all the people of the world.

Instead, violence and aggression is rising throughout America, as the transition into "This is a Black World" now, and the ghost of John Brown is ostensibly leading the wanton violence that comes from Black people, aimed directly at those they seek to dispossess.

Stuff Black People Don't Like is working extra hard to chronicle 365Black and if you glance at the contents of this three-month old website, you will see plenty of examples of the strange rise in vicious attacks aimed squarely at stopping those who they have dispossessed from voting.

Rape, as the United Nations is debating, is one of the worst tools of war and in America, the reality of rape is hard to stomach:

"In the 111,590 cases in which the victim of rape or sexual assault was white, 44.5 percent of the offenders were white, and 33.6 percent of the offenders were black. In the 36,620 cases in which the victim of rape or sexual assault was black, 100 percent of the offenders were black, and 0.0 percent of the offenders were white. The table explains that 0.0 percent means that there were under 10 incidents nationally.

The table does not gives statistics for Hispanic victims and offenders. But the bottom line on interracial white/black and black/white rape is clear:

In the United States in 2005, 37,460 white females were sexually assaulted or raped by a black man, while between zero and ten black females were sexually assaulted or raped by a white man.

What this means is that every day in the United States, over one hundred white women are raped or sexually assaulted by a black man."

The election of Mein Obama was a Pyrrhic victory for race relations in America, as Black people called a ceasefire in their undeclared race war against Pre-Obama America to rejoice in his coronation as Zod-Obama.

That ceasefire is off, as recent actions on a St. Louis bus, Boise State's football field, and a casual viewing of the nightly newscast in your city will unfortunately display.

SBPDL is 365Black for a reason, as we believe McDonald's efforts to educate the world about Black people will ultimately fail. The reason? Outside of sports stars, Civil Right agitators and entertainers, Black people haven't done much, thus the reality is all of the Black achievements could be discussed in roughly a 30-minute infomercial on late-night television.

We work hard to fill those other days with the reality of Black America, even in The Age of Obama.

The United Nations is doing a good thing discussing rape in Africa, as the problem in the Congo is getting bad, but still not near American levels:

"Every day, 10 new women and girls who have been raped show up at his hospital. Many have been so sadistically attacked from the inside out, butchered by bayonets and assaulted with chunks of wood, that their reproductive and digestive systems are beyond repair.

“We don’t know why these rapes are happening, but one thing is clear,” said Dr. Mukwege, who works in South Kivu Province, the epicenter of Congo’s rape epidemic. “They are done to destroy women.”

Eastern Congo is going through another one of its convulsions of violence, and this time it seems that women are being systematically attacked on a scale never before seen here. According to the United Nations, 27,000 sexual assaults were reported in 2006 in South Kivu Province alone, and that may be just a fraction of the total number across the country.

“The sexual violence in Congo is the worst in the world,” said John Holmes, the United Nations under secretary general for humanitarian affairs. “The sheer numbers, the wholesale brutality, the culture of impunity — it’s appalling.”

The days of chaos in Congo were supposed to be over. Last year, this country of 66 million people.."

Of course, the copious amounts of rapes by Black people in the Congo and by Black people in the United States has absolute no correlation, but the reality of rape in South Africa is much worse:

"One in four men in South Africa have admitted to rape and many confess to attacking more than one victim, according to a study that exposes the country's endemic culture of sexual violence.

Three out of four rapists first attacked while still in their teens, the study found. One in 20 men said they had raped a woman or girl in the last year.

South Africa is notorious for having one of the highest levels of rape in the world. Only a fraction are reported, and only a fraction of those lead to a conviction."

What does this tell us about Black people, when we are confronted with the numbers from the Congo, South Africa and the United States? It tells us the United Nations is doing a good thing in combating rape and trying to define it as a tool of war, and since the UN is located in New York City, it needs look no further than the United States to view a real war.

Of course, white people in the United States don't really count as a collective people at all, as they are just individuals and previously engaged in open warfare against the indigenous people of America and for centuries raped the colored populations of the world as they tried to take it by force.

So consider the actions of Black people now payback for centuries of being raped by the white man.

Stuff Black People Don't Like includes the United Nations declaring rape a tool of war, for the numbers indicate that 100 white women are raped everyday by Black people in America, a number that correlates to the number of Africans raped in the Congo each day.

A real war is being waged in America - just like in the Congo and if the UN is serious about stopping rape, they need look no further than within the borders of the country that houses that global institution.

#318. Sportsmanship

Sports. The final frontier for Black people. Sports offer "a way out" for Black people who live in broken home without fathers, or in the ghetto surrounded by misery, and the possibility of riches and fame comes with this promise.

In 21st century America, professional and collegiate athletes enjoy not only vast quantities of fiat money, but also fame, endorsement money and the adulation of millions, if not billions of people.

Black people are on the top of the list of highest paid athletes (in numerous sports) and best compensated in terms of endorsement dollars as 60 percent of the top 10 earners in 2008 are Black people.

Sports Illustrated, the most widely-read magazine devoted to sports in the world, routinely puts Black people on their cover:

Athlete	Number of covers
Michael Jordan	56
Muhammad Ali	38
Tiger Woods	30
Kareem Abdul-Jabbar	22
Magic Johnson	22
Jack Nicklaus	22

The adulation and notoriety that follows being on a Sport Illustrated cover is immense and solidifies in the general publics mind the superstar status of these athletic Black people.

Even though obscene amounts of money and fame are bestowed upon Black people who have the uncanny ability to entertain the masses through the cognitively difficult task of shooting a ball through a hoop or running with the football, an aura of bitterness surrounds them.

Take Tiger Woods, the highest paid athlete in the world and arguably the biggest Grouch in the world this side of Sesame Street:

"Tiger Woods has outgrown those Urkel glasses he had as a kid. Outgrown the crazy hair. Outgrown a body that was mostly neck.

When will he outgrow his temper?

"The man is 33 years old, married, the father of two. He is paid nearly $100 million a year to be the representative for some monstrously huge companies, from Nike to Accenture. He is the world's most famous and beloved athlete.

If there were no six-second delay, Tiger Woods would be the reason to invent it. Every network has been burned by having the on-course microphone open when he blocks one right into the cabbage and starts with the F-bombs. Once, at Doral, he unleashed a string of swear words at a photographer that would've made Artie Lange blush, and then snarled, "'The next time a photographer shoots a [expletive] picture, I'm going to break his [expletive] neck!

It's disrespectful to the game, disrespectful to those he plays with and disrespectful to the great players who built the game before him. Ever remember Jack Nicklaus doing it? Arnold Palmer? When Tom Watson was getting guillotined in that playoff to Stewart Cink, did you see him so much as spit?

Despite his pension for using profanity, Tiger Woods was recently rated America's favorite athlete:

Harris surveyed 2,177 U.S. adults online June 8-15. The Harris top five:1. Tiger Woods
2. Michael Jordan
3. LeBron James
4. Kobe Bryant
5. Derek Jeter

LeBron James, one of the worlds best tippers, also is one of the worlds worst sportsman, as he failed to shake the hands of the team that beat him in the NBA Playoffs in 2009:

"All athletes are taught from a young age to be good sports and shake the other team's hands, even if you lose.

LeBron must have skipped that part.

Professional athletes are supposed to be role models for young athletes all over the world. What is a young, aspiring LeBron fan suppose to think when he sees his idol storm off the court without shaking anyone's hand after losing?"

Serena Williams, who looks like the sister/brother of disgraced South African hermaphrodite Caster Semenya, is a superstar tennis player. She was famously disqualified in the 2009 US Open for threatening the judge with bodily harm after the judge awarded a point to her opponent:

"Williams’ subsequent outburst -- during which she glared at the linesperson and reportedly said, among other things, “If I could, I would take this fucking ball and shove it down your fucking throat” -- represented a regrettable loss of composure, but one that, under the circumstances, was somewhat understandable."

Here at SBPDL we have recently discussed the Boise State-Oregon football game, when a Black player- Lagarrette Blount - punched a white player after his team lost 19-8; the Miami-Florida International college football riot; the 2008 Montgomery Riot at a high school basketball game, and we will continue to discuss events that highlight Black people in situations that fit a clear behavioral pattern.

After all, who can forget the infamous incident between Latrell Spreweell (Black player) and his white coach PJ Carlesimo, when the basketball player went UFC and tried to choke his coach out?

A cursory glance at ESPN provides a cornucopia of highlights for the masses to indulge in and also provides the masses with incredible examples of Black people acting like the kid whose parents refuse to buy him a new toy:

"Brandon Marshall, openly unhappy with the Denver Broncos, was suspended by the team through Sept. 5 for what coach Josh McDaniels called "detrimental" conduct."

Black people have a profound ability to display selfishness, unsportsmanlike conduct and fascinating indifference to the rules and we must always remember young people believe that sports and the athletes who participate in these games set a wonderful example for young people to emulate.

Charles Barkley, a former professional basketball player turned perennial DUI suspect, had this to say about athletes being deemed role models:

"I'm not a role model... Just because I dunk a basketball doesn't mean I should raise your kids."

Barkley is wrong. Kids (and adults sadly) are greatly influenced by what they see on television and Black people know this very well. Perhaps that is why COPS, a long running television show about real-life police officers, has aided Black people in helping them craft their criminal vocations?

Sportsmanship is defined as:

"conformance to the rules, spirit, and etiquette of sport. More grandly, it may be considered the ethos of sport. It is interesting that the motivation for sport is often an elusive element. Sportsmanship expresses an aspiration or ethos that the activity will be enjoyed for its own sake, with proper consideration for fairness, ethics, respect, and a sense of fellowship with one's competitors. Being a "good sport" involves being a "good winner" as well as being a "good loser"."

Stuff Black People Don't Like includes sportsmanship, for only Serena Williams would threaten a judge with a tennis ball being shoved down her throat; Tiger Woods can enthrall millions with precise shoots, but cause everyone to wince when in earshot of his famous profanity-laced tirades that would make even George Carlin blush.

And to think, we didn't even mention Michael Vick in this post. Oops.

#544. The Memory of that Miami - Florida International Riot

Continuing our drive to make SBPDL the ultimate 365Black destination, a rehashing of a previous story is in order so as to explain the importance of today’s entry.

College football kicked off last week and people of all races were glued to the television screens as ratings for the opening weekend reached record highs:

“The NCAA season kicked off Thursday, Sept. 3, with a matchup between unranked South Carolina and N.C. State, which drew 3.26 million viewers between 7 p.m. and 10:04 p.m. The Gamecocks’ sloppy 7-3 victory outdrew ESPN’s 2008 season opener by 38 percent.”

“A nine-minute edition of College Game day Scoreboard drew 3.89 million viewers, leading into the Boise St.-Oregon throw down (3.86 million viewers).

“For the week ended Sept. 6, ESPN drew an average nightly audience of 3.73 million total viewers, per Nielsen live-plus-same-day ratings. The network also swept the three core TV demos, drawing 1.87 million adults 25-54, 1.8 million viewers 18-49 and 818,000 18-34s.”

During the opening weekend of college football, a seemingly isolated incident transpired in Boise, Idaho, as the Boise State Broncos defeated Oregon 19-8. Black running back Lagarrette Blount of Oregon decided to sucker punch a white player from Boise State and then challenge everyone in his path.

Seemingly isolated until you weave this incident into an interesting pattern that has been repeating itself in college football games in the 21^st century as Black people causing massive riots during games is now a common sight.

Blount was suspended for the season for his actions after the Boise State game, but in the annals of thuggery and football his actions barely elicit a blip.

In the 2006 Miami-Florida International football game, a brawl broke out between the nearly all-Black teams that took more than five minutes to breakup and ended in the suspension of 31 total player s(all-Black people) from the combined squads:

“With 9 minutes left in the 3rd quarter, Miami H-back James Bryant caught a 5-yard touchdown pass…

During the ensuing PAT attempt, FIU safety Chris Smith wrestled Miami holder Matt Perelli (white player) to the ground after the kick and appeared to punch him in the chin. FIU cornerback, Marshall McDuffie, Jr., kicked Perelli in the head.Miami players, including Calais Campbell, came to Perelli's defense, separating Miami and FIU players. FIU's Lionel Singleton punched Campbell in the back of the helmet, which was quickly followed by retaliation from both teams, escalating the fight to a bench-clearing brawl. Miami's Anthony Reddick swung his helmet at FIU players and Miami's Brandon Meriweather kicked an FIU player. FIU's A'Mod Ned, who was injured, came onto the field and swung at Miami players with his crutches. The fight lasted less than two minutes with Florida Highway Patrol State Troopers and FIU Police coming onto the field to restore order.

Officials needed several minutes to sort out the penalties. Ultimately, 13 players were assessed 15-yard penalties for fighting and ejected from the game (eight from FIU and five from Miami). Although the unsportsmanlike conduct penalties for fighting offset each other, Miami was forced to kick off from its own 10-yard line due to the original penalty against Bryant (penalized at half the distance to the goal).”

The incident made national headlines and was replayed on ESPN and other sports channels over and over again and of those 31 players who were suspended, all were Black people:

• For FIU: cornerback Marshall McDuffie, Jr., cornerback Chris Smith, offensive lineman Michael Alls, offensive linemen Chad Sales, linebacker Mannie Wellington, linebacker Michael Dominguez, linebacker Scott Bryant, defensive lineman Roland Clarke, fullback John Ellis, defensive back Cory Fleming, defensive lineman Reginald Jones, defensive back Robert Mitchell, linebacker Quentin Newman, defensive lineman Luis Pena, defensive end Jarvis Penerton, running back Julian Reams, defensive back Lionell Singleton, tight end Samuel Smith and wide receiver Chandler Williams
• For Miami: cornerback Carlos Armour, offensive tackle Chris Barney, H-back James Bryant, offensive tackle Tyrone Byrd, tight end DajLeon Farr, wide receiver Ryan Hill, cornerback Bruce Johnson, running back Charlie Jones, safety Brandon Meriweather, punter Brian Monroe, offensive guard Derrick Morse, cornerback Randy Phillips and safety Anthony Reddick

Miami ended up winning the game, but the evidence to support the notion that the University of Miami is the quintessential “THUG U” was cemented forever.

In 2003, a prominent Black player for Miami, Kellen Winslow, went on record as being a soldier for THUG U and more importantly, articulated a code of conduct that Black people at all schools live by:

"Yeah, I don't give a hell. It's about this U, man. I don't give a flyin' you-know-what about a Vol. I don't give a damn! He would do the same thing to me. It's war. They don't give a freakin' you-know-what about you. They will kill you. They're out there to kill you. So I'm 'a kill 'em. You write that in the paper. You write that. You make money off that. No, man, I'm pissed. All y'all take this down. I'm pissed, man. We don't care about nobody except this U. We don't. If I didn't hurt him, he'd hurt me. They were gunnin' for my legs. I'm 'a come right back at 'em. I'm a fuckin' soldier!"

Black people would love for the story of rioting and college football to end here, but in 2004 a brawl occurred during the rivalry game between Historically White Colleges the University of South Carolina and Clemson University, which both field nearly all-Black teams:

“…a massive fight resulted during the after two Clemson players hit a South Carolina wide receiver on the helmet after an incomplete pass with 5:56 left to go in the fourth quarter ^[2][3]. Some players on the field from both teams engaged in shoving and punching and both benches practically cleared as chaos erupted on the field. State Troopers, as well as other local law enforcement officers, entered the field to restore order. No fans ever entered the field. Play was suspended for six minutes.

"The fight overshadowed the last game Lou Holtz participated in as Carolina's head coach, as he retired at the end of the season. Holtz quoted that he "is going to be remembered along with [former Ohio State coach] Woody Hayes for having a fight at the Clemson game". Holtz then handed the coaching reins to Steve Spurrier. Clemson won the game 29-7.”

Black people have a historic record of rioting in major cities in United States and this has carried over into the football stadiums on college campuses where thousands of white people now pay to watch these riots occur for their enjoyment.

Stuff Black People Don’t Like includes the memory of that Miami – Florida International riot, for it shows that the Blount incident at Boise is not an isolated occurrence. Rioting and unsportsmanlike activity is a part of college football and the pervasive THUG U mentality helps to ensure that it stays that way.

#457. The "Doak Walker Award" Name

The 2009 college football season has started and already we have one causality: LaGarrette Blount. He has been suspended for the 2009 season for assaulting a white Boise State player after that team was victorious over Blount's Oregon Ducks 19-8.

Unfortunately, his suspension removes him from contention for the Doak Walker Award, given annual to the nation's top running back. Blount was expected to compete for that distinction, but his well-place right hand leaves him more suited for the Octagon of the UFC.

Who was Doak Walker, you might ask?

Doak Walker was a famous running back for Southern Methodist University, where he was an All-American and a Heisman Trophy winner:

"Walker attended Southern Methodist University (SMU), where he played running back, defensive back, and place kicker. He also threw and caught passes, punted, and returned kicks. Walker's impact on SMU and football in the Dallas area led to the Cotton Bowl being referred to as "The House That Doak Built." Walker was also a member of Phi Delta Theta Fraternity and lettered on the SMU basketball and baseball teams. In 2007, he was ranked #4 on ESPN's list of the top 25 players In college football history."

However, a problem exists, as Walker played football and went to college in Pre-Obama America and more importantly, well before integration. You see, Walker is a white person that played running back and still has his name attached to the trophy given to the top collegiate running back every year - a position that is dominated by Black people:

"There are 117 colleges playing Division I-A football in 2004, and none was scheduled to start a white tailback this weekend. Two schools -- Nevada, with Chance Kretschmer, and UAB, with Dan Burks -- have starting white tailbacks who are injured. Kretschmer, who rushed for 1,732 yards and 15 touchdowns as a freshman in 2001, received no scholarship offers and attended Nevada as a walk-on. Burks was a star high school player in Birmingham who was thought to be too slow to play for any "major" school."

In college football, rarely do we see the strange sight of the white running back, an oddity on par with the Black professional golfer or swimmer. Luke Staley of Brigham Young University was the last white running back to win the coveted Doak Walker Award (in 2001) and if Black people have their way, the last for a long time.

Many college football teams haven't had a white starting tailback for decades and this entrenched dominance by Black people appears to be set in stone:

"When Florida State Coach Bobby Bowden was asked to explain the decline of the white running back, he laughed so hard, he actually grabbed on to the reporter posing the question. When NFL spokesman Greg Aiello was asked whether the league kept statistics on white running backs -- perhaps the same way the league does on its black coaches -- he was incredulous.

"White running backs?" he says, laughing. "No."

Sam McGuffie, a high school star running back out of Texas, was signed by Michigan and immediately had a chance to start for team that would finish 3-9 in 2008. However, few school's looked at him, because yes, he is a white guy:

"Michigan hasn't had a white player start at tailback since Rob Lytle in 1976, which also was the last time a white tailback led the Maize and Blue in rushing..."I really don't have too much to say about that," said McGuffie, who ran for 1,711 yards and 23 touchdowns as a senior at Cy-Fair High School in Cypress, Texas, and gained YouTube fame for hurdling a defender. "If you can play the position, you can play the position."

In that same article quoted above, this quotation stands out as to Black people's belief as to why so few white running backs get a chance in college football, and why the Doak Walker Award should be renamed for a Black running back:

"I don't ever want to put a spin on it and say it's profiling," said Floyd Keith, the executive director of the Black Coaches Association. "I think it has a lot to do with the quality of player."

There have been a number of talented white running backs this past decade that refute Mr. Keith's stance, but the Black executive director the BCA has only one goal: to ensure that Black people populate as much of college football (players and coaches) as possible.

Numerous talented white players have played running back for major colleges this decade including: Tre Smith and Heath Evans at Auburn University; Brock Forsey at Boise State; Toby Gerhart of Stanford; Chance Kretschmer of Nevada; Peyton Hillis of Arkansas and Brian Leonard of Rutgers:

"I didn't get as many carries, and I could have come out after my junior season, but I felt that I wanted to go back and help Rutgers become a championship program," Leonard said. "The scouts know that I can carry the football as well as catch it and block it, even if I didn't carry it as much last season."

None of these players formed a White Running Back Association (WRBA) to ensure that white players trying to play running back are treated equitably, and they played a position that Black people believe it is their birthright to play.

However, one name does stand out among the rest of the white running backs as being the supreme player for a team that won the 2007 BCS national championship; Jacob Hester of the Louisiana State Tigers:

"LSU won the BCS national championship in college football, defeating Ohio State 38-24, with a white runner as its primary ballcarrier. Is this the first time in the history of the BCS? Jacob Hester had a standard Jacob Hester game against #1 ranked Ohio St., rushing for 86 yards on 21 carriers, finishing with over 1100 yards for the season."

Hester led LSU to the national title and was looked at as one of the top players of the 2007 season and found himself the subject of a Sports Illustrated cover-story:

"The consummate throwback player, the 6-foot, 224-pound Hester is a gifted inside runner and underrated receiver who'd sooner run over a would-be tackler than sidestep him or slap that defender's helmet in good sportsmanship than beat his own chest. Such selflessness can seem downright antique by today's standards. "

Later in that same article, a telling statement was made by Hester, as he related a tale about Black people and their defense of the ownership of the tailback position:

"Still, there have been other instances in which Hester has removed his helmet without meaning to pull a fast one—like when he's trying to towel off the part of him that is most an anachronism: his white face.

"The fact is, in today's game, it's rare to see a white running back playing the role of dominant rusher on a college football team, let alone a national champion. And Hester hears about it. In 2006, after shedding his headgear during a first-quarter timeout against Tennessee, Vols linebacker Jerod Mayo reacted as if he had seen a ghost. Said Mayo to Hester, "Shouldn't you be playing running back for Air Force?' "

The Air Force Academy still has rigorous standards, and the football team almost always starts 22 white players, thus the question from Mayo to Hester.

We have been discussing college football this week at length, because the game dominates the thinking of so many people in this country and yet, so few Black people would be attending major college's were not for the fact that they play football.

Sports are the only manner in which many white people come in contact with Black people (largely through their television) and the games help shape people's attitudes toward them in a very positive manner.

Stuff Black People Don't Like, however, includes the "Doak Walker Award" name, for white people playing tailback is a silly notion, considering that Black people dominate the position and how few white people actually play that position now. Remember, the goal in THE AGE OF OBAMA is to make everything Black - coaches and players a like - and any vestige of Pre-Obama America must be swept into the dustbin of history.

Or, if white guys want to play tailback, they can play for the Air Force Academy. We do need fighter pilots still.
