He’s asking about Vanderbilt doing something for publicity. Like EVERY SINGLE THING he posts, writes or says ISN’T a desperate cry for attention. He knew the Neanderthal crowd would love this, but couldn’t do a simple google search to find out Vandy has no men’s soccer team🤡 https://twitter.com/whitlockjason/status/1332554991031246855
This is a teachable moment. And here’s the lesson: “most qualified” is subjective, and it only comes up when someone who threatens the established order gets an opportunity someone thinks they didn’t deserve. And the someone making the assessment is rarely qualified to do so
It’s especially insidious in sports. It still comes up in discussions about black coaches all the time. They seldom get the benefit of the doubt..and again, it’s all subjective. “Most qualified” has always been a potent tool in the bigotry tool box.
