[TSN] Evander Kane says criticism racially motivated

I think he's trying to play UP the stereo type, by use of the "gangster rapper" with the big stacks of cash, and identifying himself as a "Young Money Cash Money Billionaire"

He's going out of his way to use black stereotypes so he can pull the race card when people think his antics are unbecoming of an athlete.

The fact remains that he is a Canadian kid born in Vancouver, not Compton or College park. He's not a creation of his circumstance, he went out of his way to act like this. Its not like he's from the hood and all his friends acted and talked like this, and shaved their head with cocky slogans that only (predominantly black) rappers would understand.

This is a sport where respect is king. There is a tradition of paying dues and putting the team before the name on the back. Showing a giant money stack on a balcony in Las Vegas during a bitter lockout that was mainly about money is INSULTING to the fans who in the end made it possible for him to have that money.

He should have donated that entire stack of money to charity.

Black people don't act like that, assholes act like that.

People like Evander Kane give actual racists an excuse to hate.

People who dont like his antics might call him racial slurs - not because they actually dislike his race, but because he's acting like the negative stereotype of the racial slur. He deserves whatever names people want to call him.

It's crazy that don cherry can go one TV and say the most degrading things imaginable about Russians or Europeans with nothing but chuckles as a reaction.

Kane pulls racism out of his bum with no actual basis and its a huge story on TSN.

If we are all created equal then why is it ok to publicly make fun of a Russian or swede yet its borderline Satanic to criticize a Canadian born black person that is currently sucking at playing a "game" for millions of dollars.

This guy is a joke.
