He probably wasn't white either, so why is it OK for white people to take liberties and think of him as similar to themselves, but not black people?
*disclaimer* I don't know what the tattoo meant, either, and I do think Amare is arrogant.
Best two consecutive posts of the thread.

Re: Amare's neck tattoos.
This thread is a classic. Not a week after Spur fans call out Phoenix as "racist," we get posts about "######s" and black men being "owned." AWESOME. :downspin:

The original Black Jesus was Earl "the Pearl" Monroe.

Yeah, I think it was along the lines of, "I don't use the word, but SOME people call 'em ######s." :rolleyes

No, he said that a common derogatory term for a middle-eastern person was sand ######, though he doesn't use it. What's your point?

Re: Amare's neck tattoos.
I'm not sure that tattoos on the neck would really hurt. The only tattoo I got that hurt (I have a couple on each bicep, one on my forearm and calf, and one on my back) was when they went over my spine. That hurt like all hell, but the rest were fine.

"Some people call Hispanics 'spics' and 'wetbacks.' Some might say Jews are greedy, sneaky, and good with money. However, I don't." WTF?

I don't see your point. He was acknowledging racist terms but not condoning them. :rolleyes

hey jockstrap, you do realize this thread is from 2005, right? and E20 specified what he meant, if you want to make a big fucking deal about the issue, its because you are the one with the "issue".

I know what you're saying but "nappy-headed hoes" is not a RACIST term.

That's just looking for racism where it doesn't exist. If you've been on sports forums at all you've seen any number of players, teams, and other members being "owned." It has nothing to do with Amare being black. Racism is still prevalent in society, but not in this example. BTW, Amare is pretty damn impressive against the Spurs.
