Im black and am not offended by this. Why is this a problem? His skin is the exact same color as the football its a fact we can all see! I bet Lamar is aware of this and it is a slight advantage I would think. [Reply]

Me either.
But Nate will get nothing because when your offended you can say anything. When feeling are hurt and one is offended everything is in bounds. :-) [Reply]

It’s really stupid given today’s climate, but I don’t think he’s necessarily wrong or racist :-) [Reply]
It wasn't smart to say it but I don't think it's racist either, if someone said I could hide a baseball because my hands white, I wouldn't get mad about it. [Reply]
What I find hilarious yet sad is the same black people that literally refer to white people as “mayo” jokingly are the type to immediately label this guy a racist and want his life ruined.

I don't think this is that big a deal, but if you think your having white skin is the same experience as someone having black skin you aren't paying attention. [Reply]
