 CALIFORNIA -- Lolo Jones needs an education in manners
Ms. Jones is a student of the new internet world. Ms Jones should know to take the time to do research before making anything public.
Ms. Jones did not do so and now she is paying the consequences.
This is just another form of Black on Black crime, another form of telling Black Disabled americans they don't count.
My fellow Black Disabled writer, poet, Hip Hop artist or as he describes it, Crip Hop artist Leroy Moore Jr. from Berkeley, California makes it clear. |

by Desi Cortez, desicortez@Blackathlete.comDenver, CO.----Here’s
a stark reality; most folks won’t be robbed by a gun-toting thug. No,
instead far too-many of us will be taken to the bank . . . by a banker -
a serpent in alligator loafers, shark skin suit and claiming Ivy
League/Wall Street credentials.
Everything is not as it appears . . . .
Eradicating
organized labor, undermining worker-ant solidarity, that’s what’s
really going on right under our noses. Class warfare waged by the world class wealthy against us workers bees. |

In the show, Rose, the show’s executive producer, stated that Duke recruited only black players he considered to be “Uncle Toms.” Grant Hill, a player on the Duke team that beat Michigan in the 1992 Final Four, reflected on Rose’s comments. I am a fan, friend and longtime competitor of the Fab Five. |

Stringer trains women to lead in more than sports by Joy Buchanan and Luke Visconti NEWARK -- Rutgers University head women's basketball coach C. Vivian Stringer wanted to be a cheerleader in high school to get close to the boys. She was only the second Black cheerleader in the history of her Pennsylvania high school; she had to sue to get on the squad. No women were closer to the male players than the cheerleaders. She wanted to be with them so the players could hear her shouting instructions to them on the field. |

Another chapter in the Tebow 'legend'
by Desi Cortez, BASN Columnist,
DENVER (BASN) --Tim Tebow can't possibly grasp the enormous expectations riding,
. . . mounted-upon his modern-day semi-mobile gladiator type
shoulders.
Just visualize the coming Bronco head coaching
interviews. "So Coach Dungy, are you a Tim Tebow Christian soldier for
Christ?" This kid's an updated
"Rocky" come to life, toting a pigskin covered bible around, n'
touting the "good word," an authentic, genuine American
