    That's fair, but all I pointed out was the term colored is rooted in incredible racism in this country and to use it is either incredibly ignorant or blatantly racist. There's no way you can use colored in any serious conversation and expect anyone to assume you mean all people. At no point in...

    Exactly, because people like you still use the term colored like there is a difference between black and white. There shouldn't be, that's the whole reason they make the argument of BLM. If there wasn't a difference, like there shouldn't be, there would be no reason to protest or make the...

    And that's further to my point, classifying any individual based on anything but where they were born is inherently racist. If someone was born in the United States, what does it matter how they look or what color skin they have? Just because current statistics ask those questions doesn't make...

    Neither Hispanic or African American have anything to do with skin color. Soler would be considered Hispanic by that definition, so where does the "colored" or "person of color" legitimacy come in?

    My point was the term "colored" hasn't been used in 40 years and it's amazing that anyone would try to use it in any discussion legitimately. Unless it was being used ironically, which he's proven wasn't the case, how can anyone think that's an appropriate term?

    By where he's from and not how he looks. He'sCHe's or Cuban American if he has citizenship, how do you identify him?

    That was the whole point of my calling you out... You are claiming anyone that isn't white is "colored", which not only is the whole problem but also has incredibly racist connotations historically that you are pretending not to know about. Trying to argue that white as a race is commonly...

    I mean if you want to be scientifically correct white isn't a color but I digress... Do you really think there's nothing wrong, or at least no legitimate stigma, with referring to any minority as "colored"? And no, saying a "person of color" is not the same or better because even by your own...

    So it's cool you refer to all non Caucasian people as colored? It's literally a term that hasn't been used in at least 30 years, if not 40, and even then was derogatory. You can't be serious, right?

    Fleck and Minnesota.........

    As of March, according to an article on the other site, Fleck has averaged 7 decommits a year even when you exclude his first class right after he took over, not including 2021 recruits. Several players over the years have talked about how Fleck pressured them to commit early or on their visit...

    Ezra Miller

    You haven't been paying attention have you? The back issue, while real but not really as serious as originally thought, was a way for Miller & Iowa to get him a medical exemption to retire from football while maintaining his scholarship to deal with depression. Once you medically retire from...

    Purdue Transfer Denied Admission To Michigan

    That part I hadn't heard, but it was pretty consensus on the Purdue, IU, and even Michigan boards that his mom/family played a large role in why he decided to transfer. But when Painter makes comments about transfers making the NBA, it's like connecting the dots from the rumors to his comment.

    Purdue Transfer Denied Admission To Michigan

    When Eastern first announced his transfer, the rumors on the internet were that his mom was forcing it because she thought Painter was holding back his ability to make the NBA by not allowing him to be the focal point of the team on offense. Whether that's true or Eastern in fact did not put in...

    Iowa sporting events in Minny

    People are moving??? Man then idk how they're ever going to have sporting events in Minneapolis again, what with how every teams' lives are at risk just entering the city. Apparently if Minneapolis defunds or gets rid of police it will become Escape from NY...

    Iowa sporting events in Minny

    The amount of old white men on here who think just stepping foot in Minnesota or Minneapolis means your life is in danger is quite hilarious. Last time Iowa played @ Minnesota, did they only get out alive because of a police escort? People aren't randomly attacking each other or innocent...

    Why didn’t Iowa do more?

    Why didn't Nebraska do more in the 90s or last year with Maurice Washington?

    Could be worse, we could choose to play kids who like underage porn and still not win.

    Yeah I'm a bit behind and I'm glad the players were able to talk. If you didn't tell me any different I would have thought this was KF talking Monday morning after a game.

    Iowa YouTube channel link for today's pressor

    This was the most Iowa/KF press conference in the world. Not good, not bad, but 100% unnecessary and we are no more informed that we were 2 hours ago. It's unfortunate at times that the media either can't or feels they can't press more for actual answers. Maybe they will with Barta but probably...
