I thought the team did a beautiful job at the press conference. I know it was long, but it was really powerful and explained how personally hurtful the comments were. It was full of grace and didn't get into the whole demand for Imus to be fired. I'm really impressed with them, especially their coach.

Yea - she was eloquent. But, I have a five minute rule on speeches

Man, Y'all should live here in Oklahoma, you'd see some racist **** (Yes, some still burn crosses in yards here - stupid I know).

Right now, the latest controversy is still the Freedman vs.the Cherokee Nation. Now the Oklahoma Black Caucus is calling for its members to not vote for ANY Democrat in upcoming elections since the Democratic Gov.Brad Henry & his staff members, had a luncheon with the Cherokee Prinicipal Chief Chad Smith days after the election was held to decide if the Freedman would be removed from the tribe (It passed by 76%).
