Hardball: Barack Should Have Played Hoops

March 31, 2008 | Jim Vicevich | Comments Off on Hardball: Barack Should Have Played Hoops |

What are the Hardballites actually saying here anyway. Is it Black people can’t bowl. Or is basketball the way to get in touch with African Americans. What does bowling have to do with race. I’m white, grew up in a blue collar town, bowled on Saturdays and I suck too.

It’s clearly not racist other than why do we have to bring race into everything. And what is the point of mentioning his basketball ability … to show he is an athlete?
