Unless you believe only black people act that way.
You must be an older MSU alum who wears pleated khakis with snakeskin cowboy boots and a silver-tipped belt wrapped around itself, with a mild mullet, who is not aware that your student body has a large number of WHITE students who act like characters from "The Fast & the Furious."
Good job at trying to spin that post.
But it won't work. We're all mature adults here. We're of various races and ages. That post was so racist that any objective disinterested party would recognize it as such.
Your best bet is to stop trying to defend it, pretend like it didn't happen and move on to something else.
So you are saying ONLY black people dress and act like he described?
Man, you're a racist.

I remember a few years back a FedEx employee (he was either an executive or a high level manager) was fired for refering to "those monkeys in the hub" during a meeting. There is every ethnic background imaginable represented in the Memphis hub but everyone was clear enough on who he was talking about that he got fired.

That's better than the typical Ole Miss alumnus comeback: "Hey I have a lot of friends who have black friends"
Except that's not what I said. I said I have black friends I consider as close as brothers.
Meanwhile, Memphis is segregated into white and black, with schools segreated pretty much along those lines.
I'll bet most of you live in suburbs.
You must not live anywhere near the Memphis MSA.
I live in the city of Memphis. Though there are areas that are primarily one race or another, all other areas have a mixture of races.
On my street, which is only two blocks long, there are Asians, Hispanics, blacks and whites.
The ONLY problem I have with my neighbor is he's a Razorback fan.

Right. Since my black friends are fairly preppy, to be quite honest.
And when I picture MSU fans I pciture cheesy, hip-hoppy whites.
You can keep repeating what you see, but when I think of old myth fans I think of a bunch of drunden preppies dressed in white sheets, belittling blacks.

Man, that is painfully ignorant.
When I picture a Memphis State fan, I picture a few basic models:
1. The WHITE kid in the tricked-out Honda Civic with wispy facial hair, a fake platinum chain, some type of huge sports jersey, big baggy low-riding jeans...your basic wannabe gangster redneck.
2. The older, respectable, normal person.
3. The older just haggard looking person in acid-washed jeans, mustache, tank top, big fat wife, etc.

Many Mississippi fans have their own custom designed motor homes that they take to THE GROVE. Here is one of the nicer ones. The driver was nice enough to stop and let me take this picture.

Yeah yeah yeah...same old photos fans of Team A have circulated as examples of Team B who is their rival...
But what's funny is that photo y'all posted of the face-painted dork who is an ACTUAL MSU fan.

Wow, what a link! Hey, EtolonelColonel, tell your dumb*** mod it's too late - we copied the post!
Email and distribution works. First, I sent it to one of the football managers (I know him and his father, who is a big time TIGER fan) with a request he show it to ALL our players. Excellent bulletin board material.
The recruits will definitely see it during the season so they can see firsthand just exactly how the Rebel faithful think about blacks.
Let's cut to the chase here - smack talk about the final score is one thing. That happens each and every week regardless of the opponent. But racist posts are simply unnecessary.

Yeah; right next to my black neighbors and across the street from my black neighbors.
Where do you live in proximity to your black friends as close as brothers? I'm sure that would be frowned upon in your "suburban neighborhood".
Memphis segregated? Not!

Dont worry about it... Let them talk all the trash they want...
We'll see what happends this year... Down in OxFord...
We beat thiem it'll be two years in a row, and thats gonna be awsome...
I'm feeling confident, as long as we can stop Spurlocks running, which we wont
do completly im sure, but if we hold it to a bare minimum, and not allow many
passing TD's... With that young defense of theirs, we're gonna score all day
on that so points arent the concern, just shut them down on defense a little,
and its in the bag...
GO TIGERS!!!
