I'm lacking in motivation today but I do think Jackie Joiner was a great athlete so there is that.:-k

Not much into track and field but for something totally unrelated... Charlie Joiner as a member of "Air Coryell" was fun to watch as a kid. Fouts, Muncie, Winslow, Joiner, and Jefferson were the original Greatest Show on Turf.

WGAF about a ball slapper? Do you know anything about Bessie Coleman without using Google or duckduckgo?

So the self-righteous virtue-signaling haven't a clue who was the first black woman aviator in the US.

Bessie Coleman was an early American civil aviator. She was the first African-American woman and first Native American to hold a pilot license. She earned her license from the Fédération Aéronautique Internationale on June 15, 1921, and was the first Black person to earn an international pilot's license.



This reminds me of the time they sent out a crossword puzzle for Black History Month at work. All the answers were related to Black history. There was only one person that scored 100%, unbelievably, it was that old white guy, me.

Back in the day my two favorite AFC teams were the Chargers and the Oilers. Who doesn't like Earl Campbell with the tear away jerseys. I had an action figure of Earl Campbell when I was a kid. He had speed, agility and wrecking ball power.



In my opinion, he's right up there with Barry Sanders and Walter Payton as the mostest funnest RB's to watch in their era. Problem with Sanders and Payton is my Packers had to face them at least twice a year which was painful for my home team.

Gene; does that qualify you as a racist, or educated? Either way they will be offended.

Just a good reader/observer, but someone will be offended, but I hope offended enough to do reflect on that image in the mirror instead of people.

So, let me be clear... if IDGAS about some previous tennis player, or if I feel it is an inappropriate topic for the 500 "bullchit" threads... that somehow makes me a racist?

Nope. I reject that notion completely.

I really DGAS either way... I'm just trying to follow the fked up logic going on in the thread.

My last 500 I named after nero... zero complaints on your end...

Now a black woman whose professional tennis career contains exactly zero amount of controversy by today's standards is mentioned in the 500 thread title and you think it's "inappropriate"...

That doesn't sound racist at all...

Yeah. I'm married to a Filipina. My brother in law is Puerto Rican. Got nieces and nephews that are half white-half black, more that are white/hispanic/black... a family reunion literally has black, white, hispanic and asian... and I'm a racist.

LMFAO!

I thought the nero thread was dumb, too... but you won, so you named it. Okay.

I don't have a problem with this one, either. What I have a problem with is you assuming anyone who objects is racist.

That's just absurd.
