I'm not a PC person, but in ESPN recounting Many Diaz's family struggles from Castro's imprisonment of his grandfather, the grandmother's escape from Cuba, the father going to law school and then Miami mayor, I did appreciate what his family had to go through for Manny Diaz to make it to where he is...Great Story.

But it occured to me ESPN didn't mention one fact on the other side of the field:

Good possibility Willie Taggert's relatives came to this country in chains; look how far he has come.

Something to reflect on...

It’s racist pure and simple

Manny Diaz was born and raised in the USA

But in TV they are talking about him like he fresh off the inflatable rubber raft boat coaching games in a guayabera and cuban fedora smoking a new rolled cigar

They are stereotyping him to fit their dumb *** racist narrative of some poor little foreigner who came here and made it big

Smh they are just using him

You’re an @$$hole. My people are still under the tyrannical rule that has had them enslaved for over 60 years, and you’re gonna talk **** about something that you have no clue about.

Go suck a dyck. My father went to prison at the age of 19 for fighting to win liberty for Cuba after Fidel had declared himself a Communist and saying that there would be no elections after promising that there would be when he first ousted Batista.

He and another 18 year old kid were the only ones not put to death by firing squad without a trial. They were given long prison sentences. My father served 10 years in a Cuban prison being tortured by these ****** butchers (like many others have and still are), and you’re gonna spew this bullshyt.

I don’t want Manolo to remain our HC. He’s a corch, in my opinion. But you’re a major douche bag for spreading lies and sticking your nose where it doesn’t belong. You should be worried about all of the corruption in your own country, instead of giving stupid opinions on stuff that you have absolutely zero knowledge about.

That ain't S**T!

My ancestors were killed and survivors run out of Scotland by the English - and when they got to Ireland - same thing - English! Came here and had to take up arms in King Philip's War and in every war the colonies, states, or US had ever since. Big time participated in kicking the English out of the colonies - so we got our payback. (still haven't gotten back at the Yankees)

Now. Are there any Native Americans that want to share their personal burdens and how they've suffered under migrants?

Are there any Mongolian Americans who wish to share their hardships under Genghis and the Chinese?

Do we have some Polish Americans who would feel better whining about every army passing from East to West, West to East, North to South, or South to North who would always have to pass through Poland?

I think we're adults here - and we can all have a real fine pity party - everyone can biitch and moan about the struggles of their ancestors - blow off some steam, and we'll all feel much better for it.

On the other hand - I thought this was a football forum -

I’ve never had a beef with you, and think you’re a good poster.

Fact remains that Cuba is still under Communist dictatorship and is an island prison to its inhabitants. Just like China and its Communist regime that has had a totalitarian regime for many decades, while enslaving and indoctrinating the majority of their population.

I don’t have a chip on my shoulder, and never have. But, too many people taking free shots at Cubans all the time on this board, and it’s okay with the mods. Anybody else says anything against any other group, country or ethnicity, and they are labeled as prejudiced or racist. Let’s keep **** consistent.

Many is a Corch because he sucks. Being Cuban has nothing to do with him sucking. Just as being black has nothing to do with Taggart sucking balls. They are both just ****** head coaches.

...and yes, this IS a Canes football forum.

Hey Bill Burr, you and I are from the same town. I know your brother Phil.

seriously though, that was a tremendous comment. I spit out my soda water on the dog. Solid work.
 

Hey @$$hole, I was born and raised in Cuba. There you go assuming again. I lived it in the flesh. Go back to selling empanadas and stay off of subjects that you know absolutely nothing about.

Only an evil son-of-a-***** like you would champion the butcher responsible for the deaths of hundreds of thousands of Cubans, as well as the destruction of a nation. He also funded all of the Communist guerrillas in Central and South America, and is largely responsible for what the Venezuelan, Nicaraguan and Bolivian people are going through.
