Racist Comment Or Not?

December 13th, 2007

“If Michael makes a mistake and eats fried chicken and French fries in prison every day and comes out at 250 pounds, he’s not going to be able to play football,” Blank said. “How he’s able to keep himself in shape, stay athletically tuned and mentally tuned, I don’t know.” — Atlanta Falcons owner Arthur Blank,  commenting on whether Michael Vick has a future with the team after serving nearly two years in prison.

If Vick were a White player, or Chinese for that matter, would Blank have mentioned fried chicken? I’m just asking. Share your thoughts.
