If you were so inclined, I'd say you would find....none.
Everyone that mentions race isn't racist, Kevin.
True, but those who use the words "black athletes" and "paucity" in that context are race-baiting.
Tell me, are whites precluded from making the accusation?

Of a black having played the "race-card", or being guilty of racism.

Of course whites can make the accusation.
Hell there was a white person saying he was accused of being racist when there was no such accusation.
I think this is the second time now from the same person.
Maybe he wants to be called a racist so the outrage won't seem so manufactured.

Of course, no matter if you come up with a quote saying otherwise.

We two have a difference of opinion, then.
Re: Winter Olympics 2006 Torino, Italy
the gold medalist in the men moguls was playing for team Australia, even though he was born and raised Canadian. He even lives here :dry: :frusty:
Re: Winter Olympics 2006 Torino, Italy
So there's talk of instituting a mercy rule due to the Canadian women's hockey team. :P And the men's won 7-2 over Italy.
One of the fellows from the Ukraine was knocked unconscious on the two-man luge. It was a particularly spectacular crash. Haven't heard if he's okay though...just saw the run.
:shuriken:
