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.

Troy Palamalu, Steelers, Defensive Black Beast of the 2010 NFL season

Troy Palamalu Pittsburgh Steelers
This cat here laid it down every min. he was on the field. to borrow a line from Troy Aikman Stats don't tell the whole story. When the Steelers needed a play and he was on the field, he made it. Time and time again. But in amazing fashion often traveling 10 yards a second from a dead stand still each time.

In Amazing Black Beast fashion. I've enjoyed this young brother all year, laying it out until it hurt. Singular plays made to look easy without any help what so ever. Repeatedly. Outside the frame work of the defense cause his role was truly one of Rover. On the line one second 20 yards deep with in 2 sec. later and 1 sec before the snap of the ball.

And hitting. It was a wrap all year long.

So too is this a wrap. Sometimes White Folks, I mean the AP gets it right(with one caveat*). Congrats to an Amazing Athlete and Defensive Black Beast of the year Troy Polamalu.

(*Clay Who? 2nd? Get the fizuc outta here...Matthews has yet to do one, I mean one amazing thing)
