Re: Lenny P cracking on the Postons

I don't want to unnecessarily bring race into this, but how much of a factor do you guys think that the fact the Postons are African-Americans, played into Winslow's decision to select them as his son's agents?

The only reason I bring this up is that wasn't there some sort of situation when KW II wanted to go to U. of Washington and his dad said no go to Michigan State and they compromised and "settled" for Miami. And the point of contention, if I recall correctly, was that Winslow (the dad) felt there weren't enough African-Americans in a position of power at Washington and had told his son something like "if you don't see people in power that look like you that's a problem"

Like I said, I don't want to turn this into a racial thread. And I'll be sure to lock immediately if it gets out of hand. I'm just wondering if that wasn't a big deciding factor for Winslow, and perhaps for others.
