If I were in charge of one of these black organizations from the U.S. that loves to cause controversy, I would be more concerned with why 3 out of the 5 starting players for the Wolves are from Yugoslavia, Russia, and Spain rather than worry about what color their skin is.
That's exactly it. They clamor for diversity, but do you think they would be complaining if the whole Wolve's roster was black. NOT A CHANCE.
There are plenty of valid racial issues out there to get involved in and they pick something like this? Completely clueless.

Adelman has coached FOREVER and just turned racist in his 2nd year at MN?
And trust me, Adelman is the one making the majority of the personnel recommendations. Kahn is just a puppet. An incapable puppet.
Another thing I find funny.....every player who was on the team last year says the additions have made a big difference. Even Adelman has said they have a ton more flexibility. But then again, he's racist.

To actually accuse the Wolves of going "white" to sell tickets is laughable. They sold plenty of tix when Garnett, Cassell, and Sprewell were making a run.
They sold a ton of tickets early last year because they were winning and were actually a very entertaining team to watch (Rubio didn't hurt, but it's not because he was white!!!).

Unreal! Great post/thread HUTCH. Always seems it's the same people bringing this crap up. Amazing point by slovak regarding the birthplace of the "white" players.

From an outsiders perspective i get the vibe that racial differences/issues between Whites/Blacks have increased during the Obama administration, But the thing that puzzles me is why would Blacks still feel paranoid about their value in society??? If having a Black President is not enough to make them realize that there is no witch hunt against them in life and that they CAN achieve anything if they get off their arse then i honestly don't know what will.

Just because a black person was elected president doesn't mean racism doesn't still exist in the US....or anywhere for that matter. There were plenty of people who didn't vote for Obama because he was black.
But when black "leaders" choose to make their stand on issues as petty as the racial make up of the T-Wolves roster, they lose all credibility. There are plenty of legit things to complain about.....they don't need to make any up.

I never said racism should of been wiped out because of a Black President, My point was more towards the Black folks who still feel like they are being held back in society because of their race. If a Black can become President of the country then you lose all credibility when you continue to play the 'We're not given a fair chance to succeed because of who we are' card.

So the team that has the most ethnically diverse starting lineup is racist? These people are insane and just trying to cause shit cause they have nothing better to do.
I'm sure they're the same people that accuse the grocery stores of being racist because they sell more white milk than chocolate milk

Blacks as well as most minorities in this country have taken a refuge under a blanket of media protection. The media are always willing to overlook gaffes such as this, but are all too ready to pounce on those who dare try to have an opposing point of view. The balance of reason and responsibility leans left.

What pisses me off is that they don't treat everything the same way. If MN's roster was 100% African American, you wouldn't have heard boo from these folks about diversity. They only play the card when it benefits their cause. Disgusting.
They should be thrilled that MN has players on its roster from all over the world. But no. They are just pissed because it doesn't contain enough black guys.
Diversity? My ass.

HUTCH .The most politically correct douchebag on covers finally found something he didnt like about someone else imposing their ideas on others. You made your bed now lay in it, dumbfuck. You reap what you sow. When you allow unchecked liberalism and big government go unchecked for decades this is what you get.

Where is Scab??? I have not seen any of his postings in a while...
Y'all don't think he has abandoned us do you???
I must admit he did bring a unique and "interesting" perspective to discussions... I wish I had his email address I would drop him a line letting him know he is missed and we all hope he is doing well...
