Players like CF Andruw Jones didn't count because apparently he wasn't "really black" ?

if they get somebody like Kueth Duany, can they play a lighter skinned person and just average it out?

ha!
The sports talk show guys who interviewed the NAACP representatives on their show following the meeting had this memorable exchange:


NAACP rep: We simply wanted to meet with Mr. Schuerholz to make sure he was doing everything he could to make sure the racial makeup of the Braves matched the racial make up of the city of Atlanta

Host: So I'm assuming you'll be meeting with the GM's of the Falcons and Hawks and encouraging them to cut persons of color and add more white players to make sure that their rosters match the racial make up of Atlanta?

NAACP rep: Look I don't want to get into specifics but.....


:roll2: :roll2:


Took less than a minute for him to show his argument was total [censored].

This is the shit that really bothers me. It's hegemonic because the NAACP abuses their power by making a group like that and demanding ridiculous things when they don't even look at the other side of the spectrum. That really bothers me to see that.
