  1. I wonder what it would be like to live through the 50s-60s and hear someone say the n-word today. Would I be desensitized, because white people said it and “it wasn’t a big deal” or would I understand it’s social context even moreso and why it shouldn’t be uttered?

    Bob Lamey was a young man when Jim Crow laws were in full swing. Black people being denied access to public restrooms because white people thought they were dirty and carried diseases...That was his generation.

     

    I’m not crucifying Bob Lamey, btw. It’s just something I’ve been thinking about with so many “it’s his generation” comments. 

     

     

     

  2. You’re right @PrincetonTiger, here is the WTHR story https://www.wthr.com/article/13-investigates-colts-announcer-bob-lamey-accused-racial-slur-days-retiring

     

    It gives more details about the situation. This is reminding me of the scenario that just happened with John Shnatter and how toxic that became for BSU. I think a lot of people will agree with you, @2006Coltsbestever

    I’m not giving my opinion on this, just reporting because I know this will be a big deal.

  3. I wouldn’t expect Luck to have all the zip and power on the ball yet. He’s said as much himself. His arm is getting stronger and stronger every day. With that logic, you can go ahead and assume that he’s not getting his max power behind the ball. We aren’t even to September yet, I think it’ll be okay. Lol
