Don't disagree. The region has a lower tolerance for missteps off the field and on the field for this starting black QB. It's my biggest concern. I look at what happened to Renteria, Manny, David Price, Dice-K, Ray Allen.
This region has no more or less racist arseholes than any other region. What a crock this Boston is racist stuff is.
Ray Allen was blasted by his own black ex-teammates more than the fans ever did. Was he shard on for going to the Heat? So what. I'll raise you with Roger Clemens, Johnny Damon, Adam Vinateiri, and many others.
Renteria and DiceK vastly underachieved their bloated contracts, so they got shat upon. I'll raise you Kevin Stevens (Bruins fans will remember), JD Drew, and Jack Clark.
David Price is a friggin sensitive crybaby. Anyone remember Mike Greenwell or Tony Eason being treated with kid gloves?
Manny is a piece of garbage human being, so I don't really care about his supposed mistreatment. I'm sure he and his bank account are scarred for life though.
Anyway, isn't it NOT racist to treat non-white athletes as crappy as white athletes? Yes, the fans and media can be complete douche bags to all of the athletes. Asking them to go easy on the poor defenseless non-white ones is kinda, I dunno, racist!
Or it's guilty white pandering as the non-whites in my family call it.
