Haha the annoucers are calling every white and black guy...

[JakeT.]

White guy makes a good play = he is tough
Black guy makes a good play = he is athletic

Anyone else notice that? I've just heard those two terms over and over in the tournament and they seem to be race specific.

If a team won their conference tournament and they win today then the announcers say they have momentum
If a team lost their conference tournament and they win today then the announcers call them well-rested

It's usually "smart" or "crafty" instead of tough.

 

[seanm0520]

I guess black people are SUPPOSED to be tough:think2:

 

[GoForIt]

what if he is latino like Orlando Mendez-Valdez for Western Kentucky?? This might give the announcers a dilemma, what to do? Maybe they can say he sneaks into the paint undetected making a border reference

I bet Florida St cause they were more athletic, that didnt work out.

I noticed years ago that Dick Enberg called certain black players like Tim Duncan, a "class act." I think Enberg meant he was an "Uncle Tom" and didn't give the white establishment any trouble.

I can only recall one white player being labeled a class act, but can't remember who it was, or which announcer.

 

[MackDonald]

"Uncle Tom" was a "nice" guy; Cousin Vinney was a S.O.B.
