I bet if Rich Tandler said Black player flocked to the Eagles because they wanted to play with a Black Qb he would be run out of town.But its ok For Ivan Carter to say Palmer got traded because he is white and a black player wouldnt be treated the same. And ok the say Bryce Harper get calls and treated differently because he is white.

What is wrong about trying to stop racist comments whether they come from a white person or black person? I have seen many bash people for making questionable comments about black QBs here. But i guess your saying as long as its not coming from a white person, people can be as racist as they want. Good to know.
Exactly, and I mean exactly what did Carter say that you consider racist? I just did a quick google and found nothing. Do you have a clip? A quote? (Sorry, the tweet means nothing to me, it is simply made without any context or - not being a "tweeter" - proof it came from Carter ).
Racism is racism but I need something more than one person's allegations - please show me the source.

On July 26th 2011 he said that Bryce Harper gets calls and get away with things because he is white. With no context or no proof. He didnt give any example of how another of different race was treated. Thats racist. making a statement or judgement based on race. And recently when Carson Palmer got traded to the Raiders he had an entire segment about how if a black QB help out like Palmer he would never get traded and would be killed in the media while Palmer got a pass because he is white. But never once gave an example of black QB being treated different, because its never happened, but didnt bring that up either. He made his decision about it strictly on race. And again thats being racist.

And Bryce Harper and Carson Palmer have to do with Joe Paterno how? If you're going to rant on his "race" issues, the JoePa article should not have been a jumping-off point.

@kevinjames73 ask yourself this: had Vick or McNabb pulled the same thing, would they have been more harshly criticized? I say yes.

read what i said. Never said his comments on JoePA were racist. Only that if a white reporter talked about a black coach the way he is talking about JoePa BEFORE any proof or final judgement was made, they would get fired.

Well, why don't we go to the videotape
Washington Post Live with Ivan Carter, Al Koken (oh my god, he's a white guy!!!) and Brian Mitchell discussing an SI article where a Nationals official compared the scrutiny Harper is under to that of Jackie Robinson. So again that's comparing the scrutiny of a high school phenom about to make millions before he can even legally drink to a man who broke the color barrier
WPL: SI article compares Bryce Harper to Jackie Robinson-7/26 (http://www.csnwashington.com/sportsnetWashington/search/v/45717676/wpl-si-article-compares-bryce-harper-to-jackie-robinson-7-26.htm)
Man, you're so right. The racism is just rampant there. I think we all owe you an apology

I did read what you said. The problem with you is you stopped half way through what i said. Or you could see that my point is that it isnt fair for a black reporter to be treated differently than a white one. That they need to be held accountable for their comments. And when asked i gave several other examples of Carters careless and wreckless "reporting". My reason for using what he said today about JoePa was used to show how a racist black reporter is treated differently than a white one.

The SI article had nothing to do with what he said about Harper getting calls because he is white. nice try though. You showed half of what was said that day. Gotta love when someone is obviously trying to use bits and pieces to hide the truth. Will bet my entire years salary that your black. And will bet another years salary that you would never say a bad word about any black reporter making racist comments. Whether its true or not. almost like the KKK or Nazis. Attack the ones you dont agree with to hide the truth. A shame your a moderator. Can only imagine what you delete or do to people who make a bad comment about a black player.
