They shouldn't drink. Gamble. Golf. Fishing. Hunting. Anything men engage in should be and was taboo, for women and everybody else, and many of us remember how our grandmothers or great-grandmothers avoided some if not all of these activities.<br />The favored get more time before decending into decay.<br />Black doesn't work in the SFBA. They are too far back and can't afford a temptation as big as a good black sport leader/coach. "Barry Bonds." Something was wrong with Barry Bonds.<br />And with this most recent message of the SFWhiteys winning the World Series shoudl help people understand. The white Oakland A's was designed to keep blacks out of the Colisium for years now. The only black they kept around were novelty blacks::Milton Bradley, CoCo Crisp, etc.<br />Now I don't think the problem lies with Mike Singletary. I believe he transcends the color of his skin. But all the black coaches on his staff is the problem.<br />Of course the safe play is get rid of them all, but I do believe Singletary can be successful if they just create the right equation with the 49ers.<br />It's true in Oakland and it is true in San Francisco::::The blacks of this region are too disfavored, have fallen too hard into disfavor and now can't afford it. It's much like the Raider Nation::::If they went to church like their (great) grandfathers regularly the gods would offer them a winning Raider franchise to tempt them, see if they skip church for games, etc.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-411939643357638479.post-1246581156404725132010-12-18T05:35:46.237-06:002010-12-18T05:35:46.237-06:00Lovely post Mish....great ideas for us....by the w...Lovely post Mish....great ideas for us....by the way, over here in Northern Ireland we still have cheques (checks to you) just like you describe....they will not be phased out until 2018!!
