I definitely think there are a group of people who will use any excuse to justify their racism. For years, football fans used to mock black quarterbacks. Doug Williams wins a Super Bowl as MVP and he never really received any credit for it. Black QBs are still mocked today. See Cam Newton.

Now Evander Kane might be a d1ck. I don't know him personally. But he's been a target ever since he's been in the league. But guys like Georges Laraque and Jarome Iginla never received any negativity towards them. At least I can't recall any. I'd never say anything bad to big Georges. 😂

Grant Fuhr was called a cocaine abuser in the 80s because he was one. PK Subban draws alot of disdain because God forbid a black hockey player would dare to have a personality. I think his teammates in Montreal were just mostly jealous of him. The Habs chose Therrien a total douchebag over him. By the way, PK seems to be doing just fine in Nashville.

I don't know. Maybe a lot of sports fans just like to pretend it's 1955 and only white athletes should be the stars of hockey. To me, I don't care what colour a player is. If he's good, I'll call him good. If he's bad, I'll call him bad.

We'll, Disco Dan was of the superior opinion that Iginla didn't understand which side he should be playing - so he played him on his off side because that's what the sensible thing was to do!
