Michael Irvin claims Tony Romo may have black ancestor

[jimmy the greek]

On Dan Patrick's radio show on Monday, ESPN analyst Michael Irvin was discussing what he sees as the great upside of Dallas Cowboys quarterback Tony Romo. About three and a half minutes into his appearance on the show, Irvin said Romo is a good athlete, then suggested that must mean he has an ancestor who is black.

"He doesn't look like he's that type of an athlete," Irvin said of Romo. "But he is. He is, man. I don't know if some brother down in that line somewhere, I don't know who saw what or where, his great-great-great-great-grandma ran over in the 'hood or something went down."

Patrick tried to suggest to Irvin that he shouldn't go there, but Irvin was having none of it, continuing:

"If great-great-great-great-great-great-great-great grandma pulled one of them studs up out of the barn, 'Come on in here for a second,' you know, and they go out and work in the yard. You know, back in the day."

(BEANTOWNJIM IS NOT A RACIST,HE IS A REALIST)

O.K. BOYS HERE IS THE DOUBLE STANDARD SEE HOW THE BLACK GUY CAN SAY WHATEVER HE WANTS WITHOUT GETTING IN TROUBLE.NOW LETS REVERSE THE ROLE LETS SAY DAN PATRICK SAID TO MICHAEL IRVIN MAN TONY ROMO IS SO MUCH SMARTER THAN DUMBERTHAN MCNABB HE MUST HAVE HAD A GREAT,GREAT,GREAT GRANDFATHER WHO WENT TO HARVARD AND OWNED SLAVES.HOW ELSE CAN YOU EXPLAIN THE WAY ROMO MAKES THOSE QUICK DECISIONS AND ACTS SO SMART ON THE FIELS COMPARED TO MCNABB AND VICK.HOW COME THESE WHITE QUARTERBACKS ARE SO SMART IN THE NFL AND THE BLACK QUARTERBACKS ARE BONE HEADS.I REMEMBER A POSTER NAMED BEANTOWNJIM WHO ALWAYS BET AGAINST THE BLACK QUARTERBACK BECAUSE UNDER PRESSURE THE BLACK ATHLETE CANT THINK AS QUICK AS THE WHITE ONE SURE HE CAN RUN BUT WHEN YOU NEED A CLUTCH PASS FORGET ABOUT IT.

THE BLACK QUARTERBACK EXPERIMENT IN THE NFL IS ALL BUT OVER IT DOESNT WORK THEY ALWAYS CHOKE UNDER PRESSURE.
