FSU & Miami

Big college football game tonight. I hate the Seminoles but have to admit that their offensive line is gonna make this one lopsided in their favor. Just kidding haha. 34-13 Miami. As a sidenote, FSU's star free safety Myron Rolle will not play on the team this year. He is pursuing a medical degree and studying @ Oxford this year after being selected as a Rhodes Scholar. He is also gonna be a 1st round draft pick. Impressive. Yet the two announcers have said at least 3 times that he is "black." Hmm....why the need for that?

    I don't think the announcers do it intentionally. I watched the same game and didn't notice it. I think its just natural. Haven't you ever mentioned someone's race when just giving someone a basic description of someone else? Just think of aim.
