(By 'sides' I refer to the divisions, the area divided by the knitting lines, of course.) |

One could get too picky and say that kind of soccer ball has 32 sides, 12 'pentagons' and 20 'hexagons', thus making all 'pentagons' of one color and all 'hexagons of other would still result in a majority, while a 16 by 16 division would result in a 'ugly' ball.
However, that is for the too picky to debate about. |

And then a Latino team went to play against the victor and the problem started all over again. |

Pretty good! South Africa (and everyone else for that matter) needs to remember that both sides are part of the solution. They only need to look north at Zimbabwe to see what happens when you "blame whitey!" and throw them out. |

Stupid video. Yes, rascism is bad, but that doesn't make this a good video. Anvilicious and ham fisted. |

I thought you'd know the unfortunate answer to that by now... |

@froggy:
Well the blacks and the whites were about to play a game on equal footing, and the black guys said NO NO NO! There's no black on that ball!
What's the problem with that? That's why I think it's poorly used.
The message is racial equality, which I agree with, but the video implies that the minority was pissed that they weren't included in something they were included in. |

Yeah that's about right.
The minority refused to be included, unless they were included? |

"They refused to play soccer because of the color of an INANIMATE OBJECT. "
Its a metaphor for society. Look up South Africa and apartheid and Nelson Mandela.
Sheesh.

Why does everything have to be so politically correct? They refused to play soccer because of the color of an INANIMATE OBJECT. drat them, somebody else will be willing to play instead. Why didn't the white players not play with the black players because they were all black and not white or black and white? Sounds pretty unrealistic considering how incredibly racist everybody in the video was. I mean, you don't see people boycotting football because the ball's brown, do you? What about basketball? Who's supposed to play that? I mean the ball's orange, not rainbow colored. In conclusion: Only racists tie inanimate objects to racism, like the dumb asses portrayed in the video, or the guy who made it. |
