CARMELLO ANTHONY SAYS CALLING HIM SELFISH IS LIKE A SLAP IN THE FACE.
the media is now referring to the Knicks as LINS' TEAM.
7 games and already this chinese fella is the second coming.
the media is using his rise to dig at blac basketball players...and the BLACK Major professional league..the NBA!

i doh want to put down lin either. but I really dont care man.
and the starting five does not do that either. and deh seem to care! thats better than I.
but the underlying aim of the mass media is racist/racism...attack on blac players...like setting up Anthony to tak a fall
if yu have been following the sports media yu would see that that is always what they do..especially with blac players.
yu want to see something! look at how they treat Tebow as opposed to how they treatee blac running quarterbacks in football, who are the prototype of the running quarterback.
Remember Randall Cunningham, Mike Vick, an early Donovan McNabb?
those guys could do nothing right for the media. they very skilla which Tebow is given credit for they were exponets of and far, far, far, far, far better tha Tebow is now, and will ever be.
Tim Tebow can never be as good as any one of those guys. he cant even throw the damm ball, is usually a perfect embarrassment as a Quarterback.
and yet look at how he is treated to how those others were and are.
when these golden boys arrive this questin smacks all iin the face and we ignore it. look at how many far, far, far, far, better blac players who were nto even given a chance, far les sthose who actually played and established standards Lin or Tebow can never match.
yet there is the adulation, recognition and treatment that is never given to the deserving who happen to be blac.
and again...the issue for me is not that positive treatment is not given to blac players. I dont care about that. as long as they can play, win and earn is fine by me.
but in doing so they must run a permanent gauntlet of media obstacles in their way, throug their careers, that actually threaten those careers..actually have ended careers under media harrassment.
now here we have lin..harvard, chinese, christian... and the world is unfolding as it shud.
hypocrissy from start to finish
