Most Redskins fans are white? Isn't Washington DC predominantly black? This doesn't even make sense. Is he really trying to CREATE a QB controversy.

He loves trolling. It's a shame cause when he first started and wanted to have a real take he could break things down and make a new, well thought out take.

Virginia (where I was born) has a lot of Redskins fans. Skip Bayless must have run out of Tebow hype and he's reaching for anything that will get him some attention.

So he's like a backwards GoChiefs.

I don't give a flying **** what color a player is as long as he is helping my team win games.

I'm not sure of the context and Skip is an idiot but....

1. White fans do favor white players in general. I don't know how anyone could think of another reason the Boomer Grigsbys, Andy Studebakers, and Mike Mazlowskis (maz sucked) are/were so over-valued by fans.

2. Most Redskin fans ARE white. Just like most NFL fans are white. It's called an ethnic majority. White people have one in this country.

People are WAY to oversensitive about race. I mean people start calling everyone racist just for bringing up racial issues.

Having said that Skip is a moron and was probably just saying it to *shock* get attention.

1. I would agree with this for the most part. Ive often mentioned on here that if Jared Allen were black, alot of Chiefs fans would not have supported him the way they did.


Yea, i have no idea about the Bayless comment....theres no link and ive not seen it talked about anywhere else? Dude has always seemed like a first class D-bag to me though. Its his job to incite the masses.

Saul Good 08-21-2012 08:33 AM

How is his comment anything more than common knowledge? Look at the Asian media circus that follows players like Ichiro around.

Look at how Mark Sanchez was covered by Mexican media.

Look at all the hype that guys like Jason Sehorn and Mike Alstott got for being the only white guys at their positions.

Bayless may be wrong in this instance because white guys aren't underdogs at the QB position, though. People tend to pull for guys of their own race when their race is an extreme minority in said activity.
