If so, get over it. If not, then you need to give your degree back, because you sound like a fool! And no, I'm not white. I'm a proud black woman that doesn't hold every black man to the stereotypes given to stupid black men by white folks. You sound like a black woman whose man was taken by a white woman.

Exposure is key. In fact, today I was speaking with a guy, and I asked why he started selling drugs and not me. "Exposure," he answered. In other words, I watched my daddy get up everyday to go punch the clock. This brother watched his daddy sell drugs.

Some black comedians say the dumbest things for a laugh; remember they're comedians not educators and it’s not funny at all its stupid. I think the thing that is missing in this whole story is the aggressive behavior of white women has toward black athletes. I've personally witnessed it. I've been to NBA parties where these white girls are all over these men and damn near taking their clothes off just to sleep with them! Really? I remember the first time I saw it, my sister and I could not believe our eyes. In my extensive travels I’ve seen white stewardess throw themselves at black business men and celebrities. It’s interesting that you don’t see many black women caught up in celebrity/athlete love triangles and woes. There is a difference in culture and how black and white women and are taught to behave and approach men. I know my three sisters and I were taught to allow a man to approach you and to act like a lady in public. Aside from the fact that it takes two to tangle, Tiger hardly represents Black Athletes, he's caublasion remember? He's never said he was black even though we know he is. It's ironic that his victories are associated with his multi-ethnicity, but his short comings are associated with his black heritage. The media and social obsession with this mans shortcomings is absolutely amazing! It shows that we have become a society that thrives on tabloid gossip and mess! Wow what a noble country we are. This also shows there is a double standard, if this was David Beckhams story this would've been on the news for one short second and then we would've been back to the White House crashers. At the end of the day white America and the racist far right pundits are ecstatic that Tiger has flaws. The white male agenda is one that is evil and vicious. No person of color is supposed to beat or supercede the image, money, or status of the white male or white dominance. White people are happy that Tiger has this indiscretion and they’re pulling off the gloves to tear him down, based on color alone. Again if this was any other athlete, we wouldn't be talking about this at this length. There are so many popular men who are known cheaters, Bill Clinton! After his ordeal everyone was all forgiving etc.... But not Tiger, which is a shame. I personally don't care for him, because of his refusal to accept his black identity and his choice of women. However, I think this ordeal should not be played out on the news all day everyday! Come on people there are bigger and better more important issues to talk about in the news. This is an issue between him and his wife and um 9 plus other women, who by the way are skanks form coming on TV, really, now that's what you call white trash. These same skanks are sleeping with just as many white athletes and powerful men too. Tiger is just one of them. White athletes are sleeping around just the same. There is nothing black about this ordeal. I liked your article very much.

I must admit that until now I never heard of you or read any of your articles. After reading you’re article it became immediately clear to me why I never heard of you. The stereotype that you perpetrate in your article is appalling. I hope that any African American males that know you set you straight. You could have made (just as polarizing and stupid) a comment about typical white women that are always seducing these African American athletes. It would have been just as stupid as the one you said about African American athletes always going after white women. People like you offer our society nothing but hate and stereotypes. You are no different than any other hate mongers in our society. Terrorist groups like the KKK love folks like you. How can you sleep at night? I can't imagine any African American male wanting anything to do with you. Most people do not do wrong. Most people try to do the right thing. That is why folks (including you) who do wrong stand out. I hope that I will never get a chance to hear or read anything you write or say.
