Whitlock: Michigan coach Juwan Howard feels ‘untouchable’ in racist world liberal elites constructed - TheBlaze

Wow!

The Blaze is still a thing?    

As perspicacious an article as I’ve seen on the incident.  

He usually has some fairly keen insight on things.  

Whitlock is a race baiting clown

How is he race baiting?

Whitlock is a huge race baiter and this is why he is essentially unemployed. He's doing this YouTube thing. His videos have an insane amount of commercials. It's the only way he can generate revenue because he doesn't really have the views nor subs.

He is extremely talented, and has some great takes on many subjects. Many think he is a Tom. I even used to. Truth be told, Whitlock is blacker than most of these black sports reports, not including those that are former athletes. He is a race baiter though. Here is a perfect example

 A week or two ago I'm listening to one of his shows. The leading topic was Richard Sherman. Specifically a take Richard Sherman had on Matthew Stafford. The take was that Stafford wasn't necessarily a HOF'er, even after winning the Super Bowl. He posits that while Stafford does have numbers, based on playing in a pass heavy era, where guys like Derek Carr will end up with high career passing stats, that alone does not make a HOF career? He asks, "Was he a perennial All-Pro? Was he top 5 of his ears. Was he ever MVP, O/DPOY. These are the things that make a HOFer.

Now Whitlock proceeds to say he agrees with the take. He agrees with the reasoning but he thinks Richard Sherman had said take, with he himself agrees he is valid, because Richard Sherman is racist. He then proceeds to play the "probably game". The probably game is where a guy concocts a narrative, or assigns a stance to someone else, simply to have something to counter. This is always based on personal whim. We see if often on covers when guys say things like, "You probably got that from Fox News." "You probably got that from CNN?" "You're probably a racist." "You probably wear two masks all alone in your car." We create these bogeymen just to have someone to best. A dragon to slay in an internet chat room.

Whitlock states that Sherman is probably racist. The left was probably planning on making him a left Charles Barkley. He was ready to move right into a career in broadcast but had that criminal incident with his in laws, so now he's trying to build his resume by launching a podcast. Whitlock ignores the irony in the fact that he himself once had a broadcast career, and is trying to rebuild his brand through platforms such as YouTube. And that he is using Richard Sherman as click bait in this pursuit. And in doing this be is bringing race into a topic where it doesn't belong. He had no reason to assume Sherman's take had anything to do with anything except football? Has Richard Sherman ever indicated that he is racist? He is the definition of a race baiter. He gambled on this at Fox Sports and it backfired. Fox Sports leans pretty neutral. People think Fox Sports is the right answer to ESPN but it isn't. So now he has less followers on YouTube than me. He was doing some stuff for Outkick. I'm not sure if his content is somehow still connected with them or not. He is an extremely talented writer. Played college football. Actually had a very traditional black upbringing. People will scoff but I hear it in so much that he says and it takes on to know one. He has some really good takes but nobody will ever hear them because he chose to be a race baiter.
