As far as pulling punches on black figures,they were all over Ray Lewis during the SB. Also,they have been pretty mean to Devin Hester over the years. I do think they hate the "grindy" white guys more then anybody though.

I'm not sure about that but I know I've heard dan going on about how being a murderer has helped Lewis' brand and he is hands down the best linebacker ever. Maybe he should slip in the fact that Alford was one hell of a spot up shooter in between disparaging him for his lack of morals.

Dan can't move on because he wants to dwell on the negativity of sports. What Alford did was wrong without a doubt, but it is old news. Since the topics of Penn St., Paternos, and Lance Armstrong fail to elicit a reaction from the audience, and instead of focusing on White Sox, Cubs, and the Blackhawks wins, he chose the Alford story. His goal is to goad stupid people to call so he feels intellectually superior to feed his own ego. Instead of focusing on this case, why not explore the case of the Rutgers coach assaulting his players and throwing basketballs at them? This is something current and should provide a day or two of show material.

Even someone like me who believes tough love is still needed in sports today disagrees with his conduct and he should have been fired when the tapes surfaced initially.

Jimmy is correct. They were all over him. Incessantly.

They only went after Lewis when he went all stupid and started accusing people of practicing witchcraft on him or whatever. As long as he wasn't being an outspoken Christian, he was a rippling stud and the greatest linebacker ever.

It's an ESPN story, so it will be ignored until someone (anyone) else furthers the story without attributing ESPN.

The worst part of the show was the caller telling Bernsie how great of a job he did with the PSU stuff, and that he probably made a impact in the case. Really? Then he tells Bernsie not to let people forget about Alford and the Iowa stuff. This guy should have been kicked in the nuts a million times.

I wish Mitch would control his hosts more. B&B stray to bullshit topics to often. Nobody cares about PSU, Alford, CTE, Armstrong, or Bernsie's weird kids.

I'd rather they talk about any of those things than Dan's tedious NBA flights of fancy, where he makes Terry guess the top 10 highest free throw percentages in the league, and for each one Terry says he doesn't know and then after the name is read, he did know. Or that that can't be right because that guy's no damn good.

It comforts me when people like this call Dan's show because it reminds me, no matter how pathetic my life may be and how little I've accomplished as a human being, I haven't stooped so low as to verbally fellate the host of a sports talk radio show.

I'd rather he just stick with odd conversations on eugenics wherein he laments breeding on with a tiny Jewish woman as opposed to a large black woman. dan could have been the father of a big, black NBA stud, dammit! Maybe he should consider breeding with an Asian to get the family IQ up.

He should combine the two and give us basketball-reference's top ten interracial players. Did the way Rex Walters combined grindy whiteness with crafty Asianness outrank the way Shane Battier combined diligent whiteness with athletic, studly blackness?

#1 on the interracial coach list is the half-man, half-god...Popovich

I didn't realize it either till Dan wrote that one column on why Jeremy Lin shouldn't inspire Asian-Americans to play sports. "Guys, this isn't a big deal. Rex Walters was in the league once!"

That's right. I enjoy listening to bernstein the 5'8.5" wondering if it would have been worth procreating with Brittney Griner to produce a studly specimen. Might I suggest Skylar Diggins instead?

I don't really think it's about the show or what's said on it anymore. It's more about being next in line to say a Bernstein meme. There really hasn't been actual discussion here for awhile. The section has morphed into something else is all I'm saying.

Wasn't it just like The Dating Game? The one thing I remember about that show is that Congressman Phil Crane's three daughters were on there and they were hot.

I'm not sure if breeding an athlete is a meme yet, but with all the time that is sure to be dedicated to Alford, I doubt it will have a chance to become one.

I believe you're seeing the natural progression of things, Kid.

The show hits critical mass and the ancillaries follow.

The first sentence and the second sentence are not mutually exclusive.

Why do you think the memes are said so much?

Probably because they say them on the show and they are ridiculous.

I'm not debating the ridiculousness of Bernstein's statements. My issue is that for instance, "Big Black Studs" hasn't been uttered on the show in awhile, yet it's a part of every show thread. Not just the show thread either, but any basketball discussion on this board of any kind, whether college or NBA. Don't you see how that gets to be a bit much sometimes?

Again, just wondering what the end game is. JORR, Brogue, Curious...these are guys with good thoughts. I'd just like to read some insight instead of the low-hanging fruit of meme-hunting. That's all.

Sure.

Many things here get beaten to death.


The thing is, Big Black Studs and the rest of the idiocy that comes out of Bernstein's mouth are sooo ridiculous its hard NOT to bring them up.

Especially when the host's whole game is to point out other's stupidity.

Think about how you feel when you see a post by Scorehead criticizing someone's thoughts.

Thats Bernstein

Bernstein is Scorehead (as far as self awareness goes)

Bernsie was in Jimmy the Greek territory with his breeding stuff. He wants to breed with a large black woman and then goes on to imply that he wouldn't touch Brittany Griner because shes either a man or lesbian. How he first doesn't get called out by CBS people or second doesn't see his hypocrisy especially when doing important radio is beyond me.

Yeah, it was a weird mix. I'm not easily offended, but I have to believe a bunch of listeners were. Somehow, in their zeal to show Alford for the scum he is, they basically pass over the real bad guy that gave Alford the clear opportunity to show what a slime he is. There's a Christian angle in there somewhere and a possible reluctance to paint a black sexual predator as exactly what he is. And amongst all of that, bernstein throws out a thought about his regret in not impregnating a black woman. A joke, I know. But it was just strange. And it obviously had to offend somebody. He's the guy switching back and forth between offensive humor and Very Important Radio. And that takes a deft touch that he definitely lacks.
