Ryan Day vs. Marcus Freeman = Fantastic

For the first time in the history of the sport a Melungeon American will face off against an African American in a national championship game.

What will their different lived experiences bring to the field of play as we all watch the game?

How will the hardships, racism, exploitation, poverty, and misery both Day and Freeman have faced due to their race add to the complexity of the game?

Will this elevate both their respective communities as they reach the pinnacle of American college sports in the United States?

It would have been just as big a story if Sarkisian had prevailed, considering his Armenian American background. So many millions of disadvantaged and dispossessed Armenian Americans had their hopes and dreams of athletic supremacy and recognition riding on his broad shoulders.

Joe Mannix would have certainly been pulling for him if he were still with us. And the Kardashians have to be heavily disappointed that one of their brave and strong clan members didn't succeed.
