By now you know who won Superbowl XLV: the Green Bay Packers easily crushed a late rally by the hapless Pittsburgh Steelers to win the game 31-25.
There were so many things wrong with SB XLV, but one good thing that resulted from the game is: we no longer have to hear that lame “Black and Yellow” song or any of its remixes every 5 minutes. Thank God for that!
I didn’t catch the game, but I did hear from a couple of friends who complained bitterly about the “wack” Black Eyed Peas halftime show, and from a reader who sent me the link to a controversial Pepsi Max® commercial that aired during the game. I noted some of my readers commenting that the ad was racist when I peeked in yesterday.
I never knew it was considered racist for a black man to appreciate a fine white woman’s body?
The problem that I had with the commercial was that it implied domestic abuse routinely takes place when a black man stares at a white woman. Sure, the commercial was for laughs. But with millions of young eyes watching, do we need them to see an aggressive black female physically abusing a timid, submissive black man on national TV?
It figures that she would be brown skinned.
