Uh, why do you think the organization is constantly savaged by every African American ex-jock and sports writer in the country? Of course, you cannot label "white hate" as racism. Only whites can be racist.Jason Whitlock routinely smears the Patriots with racist tinged remarks.Wilbon routinely goes beserk on Brady and his "too white" life.The National Association of Black Journalists sports a membership that have shown continual rage and animosity specifically aimed at the NEP. ESPN's Freddie Coleman is as pernicious a bigot as there is on sports radio today, yet always couched under the guise of "impartiality". Marshall Faulk, Ray Lewis, LaDainian Tomlinson, Shannon Sharpe etc etc..ALWAYS delivering that edginess of hatred and bigotry.
People just refuse to talk about it and SAY it is what it is...but that doesn't make it any less real. If any white person said anything about Can Newton even remotely close to what has been uttered by these aforementioned black sports "journalists" about Tom Brady, for example...there'd be a national conflagration of nuclear proportions led by Rev Al and Stephen A Smith.
Don't fool yourself, there is a decidedly racist undercurrent to the hate leveled at the Patriots nationwide since this flabbergasting nothingness about deflation first broke.What keeps it somewhat beneath the surface is the outright classist bigotry of the rest of this country constantly leveled at the northeast. Too white, too educated, too wimpy, too effeminate, too spoiled, too arrogant and yes, too racist. You all see it and hear it every single day.
