The Black Beast: Clay Mathews Great White Hype and The Thanksgiving Turkey or Howie Long Drinking the Cool Aid

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.

Clay Mathews Great White Hype and The Thanksgiving Turkey or Howie Long Drinking the Cool Aid

So I'm at the rest. Chillin'. Watchin' a little ball. GB and Dtroit. I'm expecting a blow out and a lotta pancakes of Clay The Great White Hype. Soooo game's a little closer than expected at the half. Only got to see one or two pancakes of Mathews where he got laid out like a Thankgiving turkey and his same ole weak pass rushing just getting there AFTER the ball leaves...7-0 at he half. Watchin' the talking heads. Howie, Mike Strayhan and Terry Bradshaw when the Mic flips to Howie and he sounds like he met Jim Jones in the green room....

Clay Mathews brings a vast array of pass rush moves and demonstartes his outstanding ability to movie in space guard against the pass. Yatta yatta yatta....

Huh? Did they miss the pancakes? And dropping back to pass GWH (Great White Hype) knocked down a ball and caught one that was thrown right to him. Did I miss something? Great White Hype made routine plays and a Hall of Famer goes crazy. Oh sure. The truth is GB's secondary is playing differently than last year so that the Great White Hype doesn't have 5 seconds to get to the QB this year. His "array" of pass rush moves are ineffective, boring, and with all due respect non existent. Please see Kamieron Wimbley Black Beast of Week 10 video for pass rush moves. See Highlight video of the God LT, or Some Reggie White video. Those are pass rush movers, Howie. What's Clay got this year 4 or 5 through week 12? What's the excuse injury? Pass rusher my ass.

With all due respect, and I know you balled out when you did your thang, but you gotta stop drinkin' the cool aid. What I see from The Great White Hype is a really bad year befitting of a cat who suddenly got off the juice and forced to play without a stiffening back end ..soon you cats will be panning the bench talking about how good Mathews looks sitting there, because somebody will realize the emperor has no clothes and tell you cats from the production booth... Will you please stop talking about a marginal performance? You make us sound racist....

Ya know? For real. Here at the Black Beast we been sayin' that for a minute.

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?
