Equal Rights

In the book Third And A Mile Doug Williams said Eddie Robinson told him that every man is born equal to become unequal

and after thinking about the statement for about ten minutes I concluded that Robinson meant that everyone should be given the opportunity to achieve more than their peers.

It is a great sentiment that could have been made a little clearer or put a little better.

However who am I to question a great man for his choice of words

and when you coach football at Grambling for over fifty years there’s a lot to consider

and when you fuck around for forty eight no one gives a shit what you think.
