If you have to quote "Hollywood" Hendersen to prove a point then you have no point to prove.

I was watching terry bradshaw a year ago, and he talked about hollywood henderson's jab, and terry said, 'yeah, I'm so dumb, I have to hire a pilot to fly my private jet.'

Hate to come across as dense but what did Bradshaw say that was offensive? Where can one go to find the complete list of things you can't say if you are white? At one time sports commentators in basketball used to refer to all 5 of the players suddenly running down the court as a "jailbreak". That would seem to me to be much more offensive. Well I think I will have a bucket of chicken for lunch and collard greens followed by a slice of watermelon. And I don't care what anyone thinks.

My sister-in-law shows horses at many of the same venues as Bradshaw. She is amazed that some think him dumb. It's an act and it's been a financially lucrative one, but Terry Bradshaw is a smart and very intelligent man.

I don't know if it a regional company mostly Southern-based, but arguably the finest chicken restaurant in my area (Central Texas) is called Bush's.
Their sweet tea, which they also sell in by the gallon, kicks butt.

Is Terry Bradshaw a "Clinton crony"? I think he is very entertaining.
So many expressions - like "chicken" and "watermelon" - are now racial code. I think it is chip-on-the-shoulder rubbish.
Our family has always been crazy about fried chicken and watermelon, and we are not black. Deal with it!

Someone tried to compare this to what Rush said, I nearly smaked them. All Rush said was that the media wanted McNabb to do well as he is black. He also said McNabb was not that good, which is wrong. Bradshaws statement is flat out racist and wrong.

So I guess only Black people can make jokes like chasing buckets of chicken. Everyone knows that Terry Bradshaw says crazy stuff from time to time but the truth of the matter is that he was a Superbowl winning quarterback and is a smart guy. As a Black man what he said was funny. Everyone needs to get a grip and stop being so offended at every darn thing. Come to think of it it's lunch time and a two piece with biscuits and mashed potatoes sounds good right now. KFC here I come.

I've met Bradshaw and spoken with him for about an hour. The person you see on TV is what he is in real life. A real what you see is what you get kind of guy.
Why is watermelon and fried chicken so grossly offensive to negros? They're not the only ones who love the stuff. Now, if Terry had said he was, "Chasing the 'crack' pipe..."

The University of Minnesota sold nearly $1 million in beer and wine at TCF Bank Stadium last year — and lost money. (Snip)How can anyone lose money selling beer at $7.25 a cup? (snip) The list of startup expenses that cut into the school’s beer profits ranged from extra security to $12,000 in plants to screen the A gate beer kiosk from the view of visitors to the Tribal Nations Plaza. The university brought in a dozen extra campus police officers, 10 more ushers and two security supervisors to keep tabs on the football crowds once the alcohol started flowing. The extra manpower cost almost $50,000, but police incidents actually went down at the stadium, compared to the previous dry season.

Recent research indicates that the number of people who do not consider themselves a part of an organized religion is steadily on the rise. Interestingly enough, though the number of those religiously unaffiliated is increasing, there is little to no trend in the number of those who express atheist or agnostic beliefs. People aren’t saying they don’t believe in God. They’re saying they don’t believe in religion. They are not rejecting Christ. They are rejecting the church. This begs the question, “Why are we losing our religion?”

Itar-Tass also quoted the U.K.’s Sky News as saying North Korea currently has eight nuclear warheads.

Put out an all-points bulletin: Millions of Americans have gone missing from the workforce. Every month that those would-be workers are gone raises the odds that they might never come back, dimming the prospects for future economic growth. The vanishing trend is more than a decade old, but it accelerated during the Great Recession. Throughout 2012, economists held out hope that it had stopped. But then came Friday’s jobs report, and hopes were dashed. The Labor Department reported that the U.S. labor force — everyone who has a job or is looking for one — shrank

Gluten-free diets are all the rage, but they can be dangerous if not done right. What is gluten? It´s the spongy complex of proteins, found naturally in wheat, rye, and barley, that gives elasticity to dough and allows it to rise. When flour is moistened and either kneaded or mixed into dough, gluten molecules form an elastic, microscopic latticework that traps the carbon dioxide produced when yeast ferments, causing dough to inflate like a hot air balloon. Baking hardens the gluten, which helps the finished product keep its shape. Wheat — and gluten — is ubiquitous in the American diet.
