Russell Wilson becomes second Black QB to win Super Bowl


Quote:Something tells me if Russell Wilson had a horrible game and and put up no points on offense and seattle's defense and special teams won the game only, then this topic will still be posted in here by some one.


I'm not saying what he did isn't noteworthy. I just think it's noteworthy for the wrong reasons. I think Wilson is a great guy, mature, smart, and overall a great athlete. He had a great year, led his team to the SB and won. Congrats to him on his hard work, dedication and skill. He earned it. I'm not going to congratulate him any more or less because he was born a certain race. His skin color shouldn't be an issue. Regardless of his skin color, he earned the right to be called a SB champion. That should be all that matters.


As long as we have people bringing up who did what and what color they are, we will have the other races taking offense to it. It only fuels the racism. Like one poster said earlier, we aren't going to be praising white RBs. I'm sure if we did African Americans would be pretty upset. And rightfully so. It works both ways.


Lol you sound like the people who cry foul because blacks and hispanics have BET, Univision, the NAACP, Hispanic Federation, etc etc. I always laughed when someone said why is there no WET, as if they are totally ignorant that 99% of TV programming is aimed at white audiences.


Also if there was a good white running back, everyone would praise him. Unfortunately there are very few because there are fewer white players going to the next level at that position or others such as cornerback. Danny Woodhead for example was a popular RB in all kinds of fantasy circles. Don't start the whole reverse racism BS, it's just plain silly.
