Better ing hope Kanye West doesn't see it.
So i wake up this morning and go pick up the paper, sit on the ter and start reading the sports (baseball = im in the dominican republic) but anyway i look at the team usa page and there in a little box is an article about manu, it says something about manu saying that his only problem winning the world championship was the "Tall Blacks" , is this some sort of diss on team usa? i mean theres a bunch off tall blacks on team usa but manu doesnt have to call the tall blacks, i mean jeez most of them play with you on the nba and the term tall blacks if ing offensive.
Better ing hope Kanye West doesn't see it.

ohh and acording to wiki... the tall ninjas suck
The Tall Blacks competed at the 2000 Sydney Olympics and finished with a 1-5 record, their only win coming against Angola in the playoff for eleventh.
The Tall Blacks qualified for the 2004 Athens Olympics but again finished with a 1-5 record and lost to Australia in the playoff for ninth place. Their most noted moment was on the 7th day of the games, when they beat Serbia and Montenegro (the world champions) 90:87.
Probably the most well-known New Zealand player in the National Basketball Association is San Antonio Spurs forward Sean Marks, who is in his fifth NBA season.
hehehehehehe
actually, what is most interesting is the fact you chose to read into it as a racial thing. What pro basketball player in their right ing mind would invite that kind of press onto him by referring to the American basketball team as those tall blacks???
ing kiwis man... seriously, they couldn't figure something more creative than tall norcals?
well the news paper clearly states that manu had two problems ... one was that he hated playing in the morning, and the other was the tall blacks... so i asumed that he was speaking about team u.s.a and their tall black players.actually, what is most interesting is the fact you chose to read into it as a racial thing.
