Good on Marcus Freeman

[Laner2]

So tired of talking heads bringing race into discussions. Marcus Freeman, like Tony Dungee and other Black coaches aren't having it.

Exactly.

Not sure. He looks like he's mixed race. I look forward to the day that no one notices someone's skin color.

Yeah I've enjoyed his interviews. Seems pretty genuine and down to earth

Listen, red. We all do.

 

[cruelhalo]

He's a hell of a coach. Need to stop with the skin color crap.

One day, we will all be mocha colored. Well, except for that last holdout in Coeur d’Alene.

It's weird that the talking heads won’t let it go while most everyone else don't care about it. Virtue signaling has to die.

That’s funny but it won’t happen.

Yes. Mother is Korean.

Like Tiger.

Bears should give him a blank check.

it's ridiculous to act like we don't " see race" ... we do... 3 of my grandkids are children of color... it would be stupid to NOT notice... the deal is to not care and it not matter... of course we notice.

Agree, silly example. We have a foster son plus some bio kids. Neighbor called me early on and said someone she didn't know was taking the dirt bike. I asked "teenage black guy?" She said "yes, I think that's the person to which you're referring". Lol, the foster kid and I had a good laugh about that one! He said I could tell her that he knows he's black.

I'm not angry... the opposite... I just hope we can SOMEDAY not have to worry about it ...

So many interesting side notes to this issue... ongoing... one reason I liked watching Ted Lasso... obviously fake show but i loved what mixing races COULD look like...

Blessings

I’m bettin that is exactly what was meant in the post I responded to. I really don’t think he was saying “I really hope some day nobody notices the different colors of people.”

Never going to happen. And modern media (I'll keep it at that but there's more) is taking advantage of this very attitude to promote racial fetishization.

Coach from ND is being a good coach. Said he hopes for opportunities for minorities and mixed race people, but this is about his team, not him. The dude obviously knows his skin color and knows what time of day it is on that side of the street.

 

[RedBaloneyPony]

Thank god’s hes part blasiann, might be roooting for taliban

 

[SomedayHusker]

The media owners want to see the world burn and try their best to make everyone obsessed with race. This will be in full force during the championship on MLK day. ND has a lot of WEIRD shit going for them and noooo one is going to give them a chance to win this..should be interesting.

It is an insult to all the hard work that one does

And it involuntarily calls into question a person’s qualifications. If you say we have to hire more (race/gender/ethnicity) how does one know they are actually the best qualified candidate? Why should you believe you’re the best candidate and why shouldn’t you believe you’re just the best female/black/hispanic available?

Express that you want to hire the best possible candidate. And when you hire a minority that individual will actually be the best available candidate. They will more likely believe they’re the best candidate, and will be empowered to succeed. Rant over/
