Angry White Dude: The Great White Dope

Lets just tell the truth for a change.  

Ever since Larry Bird hung up the sneakers, parts of America have been waiting for the next Larry Bird.

Well, the wait continues, and I don't think there's anything close to a Larry Bird on the horizon.

Many Duke fans thought it might be Grayson Allen, but many Duke fans -- like Kentucky's -- are delusional.

This Allen kid is a real pain in the azz, neck, ribs, crotch, face, and shins.  

In other words, dude's a total pain wherever he can kick, punch, elbow or maybe even bite you! I'm sure you've seen how he plays. Temper tantrums, pouting and violent outbursts!

Is this guy the Johnny Manziel of basketball or what?

I used to have tons of respect for Coach K. I also use to wonder how long indefinitely was.

Now, I have zero respect for the coach, and I know exactly how long indefinitely is: One game! One damn game!

Yep, one game. That's how long coach sat out this great white dope.

How and why does Allen get away with this type of behavior?  

Well ... could be the color of his skin. Maybe Coach K is felling the pressure tobwin at all costs. Perhaps a bit of both. In any event, this kid has a pattern of behavior that's proven. He's a dirty player and a cheap shot artist. He should've been sat down for at least five games after tripping players earlier this season.

And after his elbow to the face of a North Carolina player over the weekend, he should get another three-game suspension, at least

His actions on the basketball court are going cause a big problem one day. It might not be while he's in college, but we all know that the NBA is for men

When Allen pulls this stuff in the League, he'll be dealt with swiftly and it might not be by the commissioner.

Each NBA team has at least one enforcer. When Allen takes a cheap shot in the NBA, the horn will sound and the enforcer will enter the game and deal with Allen the way men take care of problems and bullies.

Case closed.

Allen is not misunderstood. He does not come from a bad background or bad home life. He's a punk and a spoiled brat.

I presume I can say this about him because he's white and so am I. If either of us was a different color in todays society I'd surely be called a racist!

Coach K or the ACC should step in and do the right thing, but the coach has already failed to do anything of importance and the ACC just might be unwilling to sit down their white star player.

Again, Allen is notthe next Bird. In fact, he's not the next anything, with the exception of being a felony waiting to happen.
