Some good-natured ribbing

My friend Wes posted a particularly well written piece about his school’s women’s lacrosse team, which is going to the national championship game against Duke. Not content enough to shove our faces in the implication that His University Is Better Than Ours Because It’s A Serious Academic University, As Evidenced By Its Horrid Athletic Program, he even resorts to outright race-baiting:

Until our women’s lacrosse team went on its wild streak in ‘05 our strongest sports teams were the very clubbiest of white-people sports, tennis and golf.

In contrast, I present to you a Wikipedia article about the best golfer of our times, as well as not only one tennis champion, but yet another tennis champion! Clearly, Wes’s horrid race-card move is a sadly outdated relic of the early 1990’s and other sad times when successful black athletes were limited to nearly every other popular spectator sport.

In all seriousness, Wes is a great guy. I just wanted to play the demented, outraged right-wing blogger for once.

    I think you should color your hair pink.

    Or better yet, you should color it green with pink stripes, then mohawnk it in all its glory. I think a picture of that would get you to blog. Anyways, I know where you sleep, so I could drug you, tie you up and dye your hair… except you’d enjoy that too much, wouldn’t you. Both ways, then maybe you’d blog about something worthwhile :)
