Yes it is.
We’re going in circles here Beemer, we get it you wouldn’t defend your own kid if he was wrongly accused of being a racist in the national media. I would.
Thats a pretty bold and unfounded claim…unless you have evidence otherwise.

Guess im out of touch completely here. Im protective of my young children and i teach them not to care what a blogger thinks about them.
Looks like every other dad on this board would put their 9 year old on FOX to defend them against a blogger. I am a square peg in a round hole, im good with it!
Bold claim? Its an opinion.
The “I have no doubt this was a setup from the start, destroying childhood innocence over politics” is more than an opinion…
The child was attacked publicly, just like Sandmann…so the defense needs to be public as well. Remember that this was brought on by the blogger…
did it to get attention.
Ok. Still wouldnt use my child to make a political point or seek fame.
Ill dip out now, no point in arguing with the entire board.
Your dick would be hard if you could get on Fox. By any means necessary.
Ah, that mythical boogeyman “the Left,” otherwise known as one idiot.
Had the right wing media ignored this guy, the blogger would have remained pretty much unknown. But they did. I don’t’ think the dad went to Fox News, I think they contacted him and he had visions of his 15 minutes of fame.
What I don’t gtet…they said the kid was native American…yet we hear that Native Americans want the “offensive” sports teams names…like “Chiefs” to be changed. And they don’t like the tomahawk chop and they don’t like Indians to be stereotyped/ So this native American kid with what I assume are native American parents is attending a game dressed in native american war outfit. Seems like they would be the LAST people wanting to send their kid to a sporting event for an offensive team. I wonder if he did the tomahawk chop after a touchdown.
Still don’t get the relavancy
Great, neither did the dad.
He went on a national stage to defend his son, who was racially attacked on a national stage.
Like it or not, Deadspin is a national brand. They are hot garbage, but many people feel they are a legitimate media outlet.
Hear is the deal.
You “hear” that, but it isn’t true. A bunch of “white guilt” Karens want that, and they find a Native American to push their agenda.
That’s true, and they’re owned by a media company that owns many niche sites. The writer of the article is more than a blogger. Deadspin is supposed to be a sports related investigative site. Hulk Hogan sent the first Deadspin into bankruptcy when they strayed outside of their boundary. Maybe this family can do the same.

And lets not forget, it was “guys in their pajamas” who exposed the Godfather of fake news, Dan Rather.
There is University of Maryland professor who is a frequent ESPN panelist who as of yesterday was still trying to disparage this kid.
You mean this guy:
He writes for the Washington Post sports page and is a a lighter version of Carron J. Phillips. By that, I mean he is a bit more polished in his writing. I have cited a few of his columns here as examples of bad pieces.
I give him no more credence than Phillips.
You may not, but ESPN does.
Edit to add: my point being it is not just “some blogger”, alleged “journalists” from the main stream media have picked it up and are going after this kid.
