I'll wager that Cooper has endured FAR more insults regarding his race from black players in college and the nfl than he's given.
It doesn't make what he said right, but It would be interesting to have him mic'd up this season to see what the black players say to him week in and week out.

You can't assume that. Young black players have grown up watching numerous ELITE white wr playing in the NFL..
