why do white people get the headlines in sports?

jon asked:

for example Brett farve, Tim tebow
also they gave Peyton manning the MVP over Chris Johnson and he rushed for 2000 +….. thats racist
all sports cast are predominately white they throw about 1 or 2 afro- Americans in the mix (shaking my head)….

    You’re kidding, right? Watch any football highlight show and it’s about 20/1 Black to White.

    I agree Tebow gets way too much pub. But he gets that because he won 2 NC’s and went 3 for 4 in bowl games, all three wins coming in BCS bowl games.

    And the Brett Favre talk is because he’s one of the greatest QB’s of all time, and he may retire (or not, who the hell knows).

    What about Ingram RB from Alabama. Jerry rice while he played. Barry Sanders, Emmitt Smith the list is endless you just focus on the white players who make headlines. The draft has been all about Suh of Nebraska last time i checked he isnt a white guy. The big Free Agent on the market is Julius Peppers who by the way isnt white and has made headlines as people try to figure out what team he will go to.

    wtf? chris henry? OJ simpson? donte stallworth? michael vick? tiger woods? they all made major headlines.lol

    but brett farve is one of the best qbs ever, tim tebow is one of the best college qbs ever. but thats just because they have a lot of records not because they are white. dont be such a racist. what about all the love walter peyton gets, qb is predominately a white position like wr, rb, cb, are predominately black.

    first of all, that is completely untrue, is seems you’re talking about the NFL though and the reason that it might seem that way is the most important position (QB) is about 90-95% white

    LOL, are you kidding me? Here is a list of black athletes in the headlines:

    1. T.O. and his constant Diva behavior
    2. Donte Stallworth and his DUI/Jail time for hitting and running over a pedestrian
    3. Michael Vick and his dogfighting issues
    4. Chad Ochocinco constantly changing his last name

    These are a few examples and I could think of many more, Ha Ha.

    The consensus on this page is that you are ignorant.

    My favorite football player is white, AND A QB, and he is Peyton Manning.

    This is the most important position in football, and it is predominately white.

    I believe that this is all that you are focusing on, otherwise you are DEAD WRONG!

    Well because every time the blacks make the headlines it is from the Police Blotter for example Adam Jones and Micheal Vick.
