Thanks for the comments.
I thought the 30 for 30 episode was fairly even handed. I mean, if you're doing a story about Meredith in 1962, a lot of bad stuff is going to be mentioned about OM and the State. It's History. I thought he did show that a lot of progress had been made since the 1960s. I'm not from Mississippi so obviously I'm not as sensitive to the issues as those of you who grew up there.
Lot's of eccentric folks tend to live in college towns. He's chosen to live in Oxford, is a season ticket holder and does appear to be a fan of the team and the School. That's got to count for something.

I believe he said also said something akin to being better than a lot of Mississippians because his father was involved with the Democratic Party and he grew up around a bunch of blacks.
I know I read it somewhere but for all I know it was here when someone like HJJ was blowing up about him

WT can't too far from his new cash cow he likes to kick around and then trot out on game weekends as his prize bull.
That doesn't count for much. I agree with everything said about him above, and add that he's also fat and needs to learn how to use a razor.
