You missed the point about cursive. They don’t teach people cursive in schools anymore. 

I didn’t miss it.

What’s sad is that when something like this is said the first reaction of so many is that it IS racist.

Tell me more. Is is sad that’s the reaction because there are racist people ? 
 

Or because we want to pretend it doesn’t exist

Racism does exist and is a big enough problem on it's own accord that it doesn't need to be brought into things when it's not likely the issue. It gets used haphazardly quite a bit, which only fuels the divide.

Agreed. Nobody thinks it doesn’t exist. But to take that post about cursive writing and wonder if a 21 year old can read it and immediately jump to “it’s racist” is a Gumby sized reach

Hey all—in the interest of staying on topic let’s move on from discussions of cursive writing and implications from insulting Trayce, and get the thread back to college basketball.

Thanks

I don’t doubt racism exists, same as I can’t tell 100% sure it WAS racist.

What I CAN tell you is that every time something happens, when a person of color is involved it doesn’t automatically mean it was intentional racism.

This very easily could be a idiot Purdue fan trying to dog on an IU player, period. All because someone is a tactless idiot doesn’t necessarily make them a racist.

Sad, racist, despicable human beings. 

Jumping to conclusions quite a bit here.

Why is that a racist statement?  What's more sad is that you would immediately jump to that conclusion.  Please use discretion when trying to label someone a racist, it's a very powerful accusation in today's climate.

Rutgers up 24-17 at the half against Maryland. Terps ended the first half with a 3 just to get to 17.

Once again.

Brice Sensebaugh is already easily one of the top ten players in the B1G.

But, but I really want to discuss your wedding calligraphy side hustle

Ohio State has lost BOTH Zed Key and Sean McNeil to injuries early in the game against Puredoo.

Good news? They’re rolling Puredoo so far—17-7 Bucknuts nine minutes in.

[TheWatShot]

A lot of bumping and grabbing by Purdue so far; refs letting them do it. 

[TheWatShot]

Can't believe how quiet Value City Arena is. 

 

OSU had a chance to go up 14 after Edey gave the ball away up top, but the Buckeyes gacked the fast-break. Had a feeling that would be a turning point, and sure enough, Purdue went on a 19-7 run after that.

Students still are not back yet from break.   Another break for the Boilers
