Race and American Football

I just came across this interesting story on ESPN.com. It is another example of how issues in society and sport mirror one another. For example, the issue of racial profiling is discussed in this article in the context of the National Football League and NCAA Football.

that was interesting. even more interesting, to my mind at least, was the reader comments. in particular I'm thinking about how much hostility was directed at the author for daring to take up such a topic. Comments like "why can't she just write about sports?" were pervasive.
