Oh i fully agree with you. Its a stereotype. Just like the stereotype,athletic black QB's aren't smart. Thats garbage too, look at Russell Wilson,RG3,Warren Moon etc.

Now imagine a sportscaster saying Lamar Jackson is sneaky smart, and his co-host saying thats code for he's black and i can't believe he can think like that.

Until people disregard color completely nothing will change.
