    See The Stache for example.

    2 championship rings and he still doesn't get any respect.

    It is hard for a white guy to get a fair shake in this country, but maybe this play by Dirk will get him some recognition as a good player.

    Nope, just on this board. For some reason, a lot of the Einsteins here like to make fun of white players--which they would never do to black players, of course. They're much too "politically sensitive" for that.

    I agree, it's pretty reprehensible to make fun of players for having the handicap of being white. What makes it worse is that it's mostly white guys doing the fun-making. They should know better, since they know what it's like to be white.

    I don't remember you ever making fun of Eduardo Nájera, though.

    The Census Bureau says the US will be majority-Mexican in 30 years, so you dumb honkies better move to Canada if you don't like it. Global warming is the most self-destructive thing conservatives could possibly back, because it's getting comfie up North. Today the Southwest, next we take the Northwest! As we say where I come from, tally-ho and away we go!

    See comments on Yahoo after articles.

    That's not how to spell marshmallow.
    Maybe it's marshMell-o, like Jell-o (not jello).

    Racism is racism, no matter where it comes from.
