That is such a good point.

With racism, I've found logic and reason are thrown out of the window. This is why when you bring up AA, people get so upset and the stereotypes start flying fast and furious. Their point of view is skewed by an unhealthy fear that's completely unchecked. When they see a black doctor or hispanic lawyer, they think, he/she had to have used AA to get where they are. There's no way they could have been top of their class or just the best person for the job.

Funny how that worked. After the 3rd attempt to show how "average" his score wasn't the interest stopped. I wonder why.

Knicks great calls for all-black league amid Clippers race fiasco

Knicks executive and former player Larry Johnson had a decidedly different but still strong reaction to the racially insensitive remarks Clippers owner Donald Sterling is alleged to have made.

On Saturday night, Johnson tweeted: “Black people your Focusing on the wrong thing. We should be focusing on having our own, Own team own League! To For Self!!’’

The initial indication was Johnson was calling for an all-African-American league complete with black ownership. It wasn’t the first time Johnson, who is black, concerned himself with the fact the NBA’s ownership is mostly white while its players are mostly black.

First off, he's not a "Knicks great" nor a "Knicks executive"... he was an ok (good) player and he's not an executive, he is employed by the Knicks in some capacity (consultant or some other title just to draw a salary.

But what he IS is a racist. But nobody in the media has the balls to say that because he's black. The typical double standard. Imagine if a white person said that we should have a white sports league, or a white college... god forbid.

Talk about a day late and a dollar short. Are you hankering for the days of old?
