Recognizing the idiocy of Irvin's comments, Dan Patrick said, "Oh, that's the only way he can be a great athlete?"
"That's not the only way, but it's certainly one way," Irvin said. "If great-great-great-great-great-great-great-great grandma pulled one of them studs up out of the barn [and said], 'Come on in here for a second,' you know, and they go out and work in the yard. You know, back in the day." |
I learned long ago to only pay attention to Irvin on the Football field.
Now that he is retired he is all but invisible to me.
I hate the line of reasoning he takes. It is followed by ' well just look at all the players in the L? what color are they?'
Well what color are most of the Professors at MIT? What color are most of the scientists at DARPA? Does that mean that we are stupid?
I am a black man and I hate the Irvin Bojangling act.
