The Black Beast: Demarcus Ware: Black Beast of the 2010 NFL Week 17 Or Exposing The Racism in the Creation of Clay Matthews the Great White Hype

About the Black Beast title

A blog on racism in professional and college Sports...Beast, animal, and the like were the first names our ancestors were given out of their own name by the slavers. This dehumanized them and set the stage for the entire enlavement process. It was objectification. Today, adult black men who play professional sport are referred to as beasts (and required to be more athletic than their professional white counter parts who are only required to be some what athletic and intelligent so that better black athletes are cut and more white ones are given large sums of money to be professional(as if black athletes do not demonstrate intelligence) which would not happen if all athletes were equally appraised. But more white athletes is a requirement by white coaches, white owners, white ruled leagues who realize that white children look up to, even idolize these men in uniform and that role can never fall to the Black Beast alone. Moreover the self identity of the white male is at stake, for the white male must be able to compete. (The white male must!) This beastly objectification harkens back to the day of the slaver when our ancestor was nothing more than muscle to do their bidding. Here in this blog, The Black Beast is loosed to take back humanity, to demand treatment as a human being, more than muscle and sinew bid to win or loose for white males.Here in this space, it's the Black Beast walkin' down every iota of racism and vindicating all uses of the race card against those who created it.

Demarcus Ware: Black Beast of the 2010 NFL Week 17 Or Exposing The Racism in the Creation of Clay Matthews the Great White Hype

This is a bit of unfinished business. I have been quite busy finishing a novel and productive so when I do and my time is limited, then one of my hobbies suffers and well lets jes say I got side tracked by Clay Matthews a little.

If you read me then you know I love Defense. And you also know then that my favorite position is DE or rush linebacker. I also love corner which I believe is the hardest position to play. I love to watch Demarcus work he is having a Hall of Fame Career the likes of which Toy(I said that right) Toy Aikman wishes or sounds like he's tryin' to make Clay have. But on this date Demarcus got 3 beautiful one on one edge rushing sacks to take the sack crown and end at 15.5.

And I hear Troy talking about sacks don't tell the whole story when talking about how disruptive Clay is. WTF? Since the Clay didn't lead the league it doesn't matter? Your racist slip is showign Troy. And you a cowboy? I mean Black Beast Demarcus the man had a wonderful year but any account and...you wanna tell me about too slow and week to get there with out a stunt or a twist Clay for Defensive Player of the Year? My Black....

Now back to our regular programing for those who care...found this comparison of Demarcus to the great ones on line. I believe the stats speak for themselves. He is the best 3-4 LB in the game today.
Clay Matthews my Black ass....

Taylor: 4
Greene: 5
Thomas: 5

Number of Times led the League in Sacks in First 6 Seasons as Starter:

Is Clay any where on this list? Hmmm. Not so great. Not sooooo spectacular. Just White in a white mans world. But on the field where racism can't hide a cat? The Black Beast do their talking with deeds while white folk just hype up off the field.

If I was Clay I'd tell them to tone the hype down cause it sho' makes 'em look bad. And here at the Black Beast we'll be sure to put it on Blast!

For The Record

I give little to no love to any one other than Brothers in this space, even if I love them, because these other ballers have ESPN, Sports Illustrated, CNN, Network TV NFL Network and its Media Machine, The AP, UPI, Every Corporate Sponsor, TV announcers and so called experts trumpeting average or merely above average exploits daily to the detriment of Black men (and women in other sports)who routinely do the incredible in front of the either purposefully ignorant or the uninformed as an entire society ignores these feats in large part due to the previously mentioned Media Outlets, Corporations, TV announcers and experts own often intentional or unintentional racism .

The Big Picture: Why we should care about Racism in Pro Sports

Statement:

I can't sympathize with pro athletes .. A sharecropper is one step away from a slave.. The differene between a SLAVE and a Pro Athletic(sic) is at minimum 5 million dollars!!!!!!!!!!!! Plzzz..

Answer:

NO. You can not, must not be jealous of what one has. Wealth given in abundance must be shared equally. It is a difficult spiritual lesson but it is truth...Just because the numbers are larger does not mean there is no discrimination. To do otherwise is simply to objectify those individuals, yet again. No one asks for sympathy, what is sought is equal treatment. Allow them to be treated unequally and this attitude only "trickles down" to every strata of society. Your boss who accepts it as fine that there is inequality in NFL contracts, lets say, will only believe the same is fine in your contract...Unnerstand?
