Missed Opportunities

Adidas is purchasing Rebook as I posted earlier this week. It’s a shame that Black athletes didn’t get together on this and purchase Rebook themselves. They (Black Athletes) are still stuck with the slave mentality. Long gone are the days of Jim Brown, Muhammad Ali and Kareem Abdul-Jabbar; the out spoken athlete who was not defined by sponsors. Michael Jordan is a prime example; he makes (for example) $400 million with Nike, how much is Nike making off of Jordan? How much is Rebook making off of Allan Iverson, 50 Cent and G-unit, Sean Carter, yada, yada, yada. I’m just amazed and tired of the missed opportunities Blacks have when it comes to making an economic effect on our society.

AL Bust Black Clinton Supporters

Al Sharpton blast Blacks for giving former President Bill Clinton our blind support.

"The whole network of incarceration (of African-American men) happened under this president and the last president. So it wasn't just George Bush. Bill Clinton -- I wish Hillary had hung around -- Bill Clinton built a lot of jails and passed the omnibus crime bill," Sharpton said shortly after Sen. Hillary Clinton (D-NY) had addressed the same panel discussion, entitled "The Black Male: Endangered Species or Hope for the Future?"
