It's more than just meatballism. Remember that Dan was 100% behind Rose moving at his own deliberate pace and when it was the meatballs who wanted him running around on a bad knee to be Chicago Tough. The tipping point was when Derrick Rose and his handlers defied the wishes of wealthy Jews.
Good point. Dan has changed his thoughts on this.
But so have many here. When Rose was not playing after being cleared by doctors there was a big group of people here railing on him continually. But now that Dan has went after Rose they have changed their tune as well.
Was it racism that pushed Dan to call out Kane when he was having issues?
But criticism of Rose can be of different types. Here and elsewhere you'll find guys getting on Rose because they think he's soft and selfish. Bernstein's critique/invective is different, as the excerpt DiC provided illustrates.
Yeah I get that it can be different types.
I just think you guys are holding him to a different standard than you hold yourselves to--or even people like Jason Whitlock. Whitlock can have negative opinions about white players, even make fun of "whitey" as a consitent part of his show/schtick, but yet is he considered racist in everything he does?
But in the end I guess it is Bernsie's own fault. He is part of a show that uses racial stuff consistently. So I guess it is only natural for people to call him racist for having an opinion about a black player.
