Bernstein has continually question Rose's intellegience likening him to an untamed beast that needs to be corralled. He should just call him a dumb genius and get it over with.

As bad as his constant questioning of Rose's mental capabilities is, his wonderment when a black man can actually do mundane everyday tasks like opening mail and drinking coffee is much worse. Anything more complicated that that though, the brother should get guidance from a Really Smart Guy before taking action.

Dan may not be wrong, but it is funny to see him being treated like a caller.

The great irony here is that 2009 Dan Bernstein would be calling 2014 Dan Bernstein a racist too!

Can't wait until Bernstein cites Rose not taking his own SAT to defend himself!

Jesus, the comments there are quite a thing:

Doc Nalls · Top Commenter
Just leave it to a jew in the media to discredit the best of a black man s efforts. That jew can't dribble, jump, run or play basketball and that is why he should not have a job relating to sports. As a non participant he is incapable of understanding anything how sports

Jeanette Jackson · Counselor/Guidance Director at MSD of Warren Township
For a reporter, Dan should first learn basic subject/verb agreement and consistency with case before making any commentary. (He jumps from conditional to nominative). Who's not articulate????

Florenda Lee-Hall · Works at General Motors
Im so tired of white men telling black men how to express themselves. Derick Rose really don't need to answer to him. It amazes me thst white men feel black men owe them an explanation for everything. The reporter is the onr who does not have a clue. He really made a fool of himself while trying to get at Derrick.

Saleem Sansbury · Top Commenter · Philadelphia, Pennsylvania
Racist white people excel at divide and conquer black people

Larry Sullivan · Top Commenter · Works at Self-Employed
white men excel at one thing: DEFLECTING ATTENTION from THEIR COWARDLY ACTIONS and shifting it onto something COMPLETELY IRRELEVANT to the issue. BARFFF! SlEG HElL! What a bunch of duplicitous hypocrites. .... No wonder only foreign born prostitutes find white men interesting...or MANLY...unless said white man walks, talks, sings, and dances LIKE HE'S BLACK! PATHETIC!

Phil Smith · Works at Here and there
I love Tabasco sauce.

In a vacuum, i think the commentator makes a lot of strong points. As someone who has closely covered Rose's career as part of the Chicago media, it's easier to see where Dan is going to assume that Rose can't or won't further articulate why he is wearing that shirt.

Shirtgate doesn't bother me a bit. The fact that he doesn't seem to care about playing does.

You mean in his suggestion that Rose is dumb? Yeah, he probably isn't wrong about that. But you could say the same thing about most professional athletes. The Chris Youngs and Ron Darlings are the exceptions. And his attacks on Rose go far beyond just calling a dumb athlete dumb. They're almost personal in nature.

And there's something especially distasteful about his comments being that they're coming from a privileged son of the North Shore. If Nas, for example, were to make similar comments about Rose, I might not even notice. And not simply because Nas is black (although being black isn't merely coincidental to the dynamics), but because he came from the same school, if not the same neighborhood, and some of his life experiences are necessarily going to be similar to Rose's because of that fact.

You don't need to be a genius to understand the concept of police violence and its disproportionate use against black men. Like you say, Rose grew up in Englewood. I'm sure he's aware of the problem of police brutality.

Bernstein is simply using the question of Rose's intelligence to invalidate his politics.

I flipped on the radio late Friday night to hear the voice of Huge on a national broadcast. Dan is still safe...for now.

Along with that he sewed up his bona fides via his rec league injuries.
