Smh i think people need to pick up a dictionary anf learn the true meaning of "racism". Wiley has been riding for Lamar for the last year and has been saying Lamar is better than Pat since Lamar won the mvp title. But if you go back and see what he said after Pat beat Lamar the first time you would see that he was well and trully on the Mahomes train and was actually one of the first media guys to hype up Pat because he attended the Chiefs vs Chargers opening game in 2018 and was very impressed. Now do some black players and media figures prefer Lamar because he rocks that hairstyle, speaks in ebonics and is closer to black culture? Of course...because the reality is black qb's who look like Lamar were stigmatised for so long and now Lamar has risen to great heights and he still "keeps it real" and folks like that about him. Whereas Pat appears to be more comfortable in white culture. Most of his friends are white, his trainers are white, his fiance is white etc and you don't see him around black people much off the field....so of course that's gonna impact peoples pov.
But I guess Pat is trying to change that notion as after the sb he went on a black talk show like the shop..plus he's obviously stood up against racial injustice and made it clear in an interview that he's a black man and is proud of who he is.
Deep down black folks are very proud of Pat though imo..Pat just isn't a flashy guy so the vibe around him is very lowkey. But people aren't stupid...everyone can see that we're watching greatness..black, white and everyone else.
