A little context here- Earl was the 6th out of 11 children born and raised in the poor part of Tyler, TX when segregation was still in full effect.
Was it offensive? I mean, I guess if you’re really offended by what he said, maybe consider the source/ context, put on a sweater, and curl up on the couch with a cup of tea and blog about it.
Segregation has NOTHING to do with IQ.
What are you saying? "Earl wasn't around White people so he isn't real bright."
I'm just laying it out as the harsh truth. You seem offended by the truth. You immediately went searching for your "Blame Whitey" card.
Earl has always been known as a nice guy, but will never be confused with a rocket surgeon. That is just how it is in real life.

Earl has never had a very high IQ.
He has always been known as somewhat of a dim bulb off the field.
There are stories that he was so dumb in high school and college, that they didn't even teach him plays, they just Forrest Gumped it, and told him when the QB handed him the ball, run for the end zone.

That’s a true story
Vince Young is very similar, he only reads at a 4th grade level despite having a college degree from texas
Rice recently made fun of their celebrating a junior college academic standard for texas athletes

Guess he's not looked at the Super Bowl winning qb's over the years. It's dominated by whitey.

Herman had black QBs at Texas State, Iowa State, Ohio State and Houston. He's got 2 on the Texas roster right now. Does Earl think Herman is all of a sudden a racist?

Imagine if someone said you need a white anything to be successful. There’s are a lot of good black QBs but the numbers are still saying that there are more
Successful white QBs. Also, he’s an idiot to assume
White guys cannot be athletic. The best RB in the nfl is a white dude.

You have to give EARL some slack. He took a lot of shots to the head.

Give earl a break, he was the victim of many racist attacks by texas students while playing there
Maybe, but he never considered .aggy once he found out they were an arm of the KKK

You can't teach equality then allow one race to make unfettered racist remarks.
It breeds contempt and deepens a division amongst all people.
To Hell with EC and his racism.
Race only matters to a racist.

What he said was light years more racist than anything any other sports figure has said (outside of Riley Cooper)
