Not sure if any of you saw the games yesterday . . . but after the AFC Championship game Shannon Sharpe stated:
". . . this is the first time that a black - er African American coach will coach in the Super Bowl."
For those of you that don't know - Shannon Sharpe is black - er African American.
Now - I as a "White" man I do not care what we label people - but I think that is because I'm racist. I mean technically, I'm not white - I'm more like transparent I'm so friggin pale - but I digress.
I can see Boomer Esiason correcting himself if he said something like this, but which is it?!?
I mean we are so mindful of not hurting each other's feelers that we confused poor ol' Shannon Sharpe - he doesn't even know how to refer to himself. He caught himself - he didn't want to offend himself?!? He didn't want to offend others?!?
I just chuckled when I heard this.
