Mendenhall: Ben's a racist

[Steel Mike]

Here's his first tweet (that got ratio'd big time) from approx. 7 hours ago:

Alright, I’ll end the mystery... B’s racist and @AB84’s black. He had to catch balls from a racist quarterback. Every honest player knows it, it’s not a big deal. He was just supposed to take his lickings and move on, like a slave for real.

and a follow up approx 4 hours ago:

Clearly it’s no fun, when EVERYONE’s the accused... Please allow the dialogue in sports to be equal. Why’s it so easy to shoot at one player, but not the other? B’s not racist. Just like AB’s not a dirtbag. #letsbefair

So... is he walking back his accusation after people shit all over that tweet, or was his point all along that people shouldn't paint with broad strokes?

fucking Socrates is back....he just couldn't stay in oblivion....

Probably wasn't till he met AB.

what a stupid fuck trying for his 15 mins I guess

[Kodiak]

shocked that another turd from the Tomlin-era runs his mouth off

Mmmkay Spinderella. Whatever you say...

Anyone else starting to hate the NFL? I used to enjoy it. Now it's just non-stop drama. Obviously it's impacting me more now as a Steelers fan, but it's pretty widespread around the league. I'm close to just not supporting this league anymore. It's not exactly fun to follow.

Looks like I'll be watching more baseball and EPL.

The Superbowl fumbler just needs to go back to sleep. Freakin weirdo.

The race card - the last bastion of a scoundrel. Socrates Mendenhall is now the most hated Steeler of all time for me. I hate this fucking scumbag with a passion.


Ben's racist wedding. Look at all the Klansmen he had attending. Surprised they didn't burn a cross:

Hopefully rock bottom for this shit. I liked Ramon's response.

[steeledge]

...you mean, he's trying to make his point by painting with broad strokes?
I mean, from his own statement, the only reason Mendenhall, the black guy, could have for thinking BR is racist, is because BR is white...

...brilliant...just, brilliant...

I long for the day when a douche can be called a douche without some other whiney douche crying the other douche was only called a douche because of their color.

Thought Socrates Mendenhall was a deeper thinker than this.

Just another dumbass reducing something to race

[Donnie Brasco]

So does throwing the ball to JuJu make Ben a racist or not?
I'm having trouble keeping up here...

I heard he made all the non-Klansmen be ushers and valet attendants.

The fucker is backpedaling now because that's what excrement does.

Mendenhall - let him go back in the hole that he crawled out of. Ben is a racist, I remember Ben wearing the racist logo on his shoes after the murders in the Tree Of Life Synagogue. The Jewish star Pittsburgh Steeler logo. He also wore it on his practice jersey. The clothing of a true klansman. Mendenhall is a piece of shit.

Except he didn't say that kind of thing the first time, he said "B’s racist and @AB84’s black." and then added gems like "He had to catch balls from a racist quarterback." and "He was just supposed to take his lickings and move on, like a slave for real."

While I completely disagree on the racist comment, I guess he is entitled to his opinion (warped though it is). However, comparing being paid millions of dollars to play a game to being a slave shows a total lack of understanding about what a slave really is.

Glad we have Tomlin to navigate through this and provide some leadership and guidance during these turbulent times

Tomlin needs to address the team and their perception of Ben the plantation owner

[Legacy User]

Mendenhall is the only racist in this scenario

Mendendouche actually had defenders on this board. That's funny as shit!

Mendy is late to the party..........

Calling everyone that you do not like or do not agree with................ a "Racist" is so 3 months ago.

Its now "White Nationalist"

[Legacy User]

It so annoys me when NFL players refer to themselves or other NFL players as slaves. Here Mendy, let me give you a primer:

1) When you are a slave, YOU DON'T GET PAID. You assholes are making hundreds of thousands/millions of dollars a year.

2) When you are a slave, YOU CAN'T QUIT. If you assholes don't like being NFL players, you can quit anytime you want.

On one level it annoys me that these guys have it so good but they're trying to elicit sympathy for their plight by comparing themselves to slaves and on another level it annoys me because it takes lightly what actual slaves had to go through.

Go away, Mendy.

[Kodiak]

Ballers is probably wrapping-up and so Mendenhall is trying to increase his public profile to help find his next gig.

[955876]

Carlin had it right. Think for a moment how dumb the average person is, then realize how many people out there are even dumber than that. Something along those lines.

Spinderella falls into the latter.

We’ve sure had a string of dipshits, dumbfucks, and douchebags cycle through this team in recent years.

So well put Polt.
Wonder what these guys would say if it was explained to them in this way.
