He's the typical "everyone is against me" black guy. So tired of it! Might as well hire Al Sharpton. Boooooooooooooo score.

ah, no. He actually strikes me as a sane and calm guy who talks about race in a nuanced and honest way--the idea that "loving talking about race" is a problem is fucked up on spec. There's a big difference between finding racism in everything (which I definitely don't hear Goff doing) and simply acknowledging that race is a big part of the sports/pop culture world. Oh, and that he happens to be a "Gateway Brother" for a lot of us white folk who may not actually have in-person relationships with many black guys.

hey goff, as the board's resident aceyalone jockrider i hereby dedicate this incredibly apropos-to-the-topic song to you!

it's not something that will get you "cred" with "good quality people" like christmas in hollis, but hey at least some goofy white backpackers might think you're kind of cool for bumping something off one of their old mixtapes.

He had his "white people can't hear Jimi" moment last week. He claimed that only brothers can truly taste Hot Cheetos.

Does Goff have his own weird struggle saying the word YEARS or is is a cultural thing like ask/axe that I just never noticed.

He acknowledges differences, nothing wrong with that, it is what it is, dont think he talks about it in a negative light at all.

J Goff is a good people, that doesnt mean a better show couldnt be produced from the product they are cranking out. I like that J Goff seems to be driving the show at this point.

Tuning in tuesdays at 12 for Joe Maddon is a reason to tune in and a solid addition, but its not something the hosts did, but it is a start.
