Maybe, but now any talk of race in regard to coaching staff has become toxic

Claire Standish Walk-on

And negative. So it is time to stop. It's not productive or helpful or even remotely true to say true a certain culture related to an ethinic group is causing the team to lose games.

Yes, it's time to stop for the love of hades.

If that's what you're saying, race was a part of it from the very beginning...

When you start blaming problems on team on race, it's very dangerous ground

You're using "culture" as being interchangable with "race" but there's another definition and use of

Stereotyping is a vicious form of racism and very hurtful to the target

I think that you are drawing incorrect conclusions about what people write here.

jaromp

1/12/18 2:05pm

You're missing the point. We're not talking about the "culture" of any particular race or ethnic heritage.

soupie

To be fair I think you are both right. Their have been racist comments on

Another common usage of the term "culture" is in business.

Great post, So sad that you even have to explain this

BYU Sociology Professors stated Stereotype is often based in facts.

Agree, many on here do not use "culture" to mean "race." I would say most don't.

Stereotyping an ethnic group has been done in this very thread

Claire Standish

1/12/18 3:24pm

No, that post is trying to explain the difference and to help you understand. In what why did that post stereotype?

soupie

1/12/18 3:28pm

What I know is it's wrong to stereotype individuals based on their ethnicity

Claire Standish

1/12/18 3:34pm

No one on this thread has done that. Please point it out if you see it and explain.

soupie

1/12/18 3:35pm

The only thing this thread is showing is that you are the one that thinks about the ethnic heritage of the players on

You have serious reading comprehension issues if you take soupie's post and

BYUMizzou

1/12/18 3:34pm

No, at least by some here, "culture" is being used as a means to stereotype

Claire Standish

1/12/18 3:37pm

That's not what soupie's post said though. You're being worse than what you're

BYUMizzou

1/12/18 3:39pm

You are the only one taking it to mean that.

That post is not the one that you cited before. That also doesn't reflect the general feeling on here, in my experience.

jaromp

1/12/18 3:46pm

The post I cited hints at the same thing as do many others on this board

Claire Standish

1/12/18 3:52pm

That post was widely criticized by the board in general

What do all those red thumbs down by that post mean? I can’t tell

JohnnyComeLately

1/12/18 3:54pm

Absolutely nothing in that post is referencing an ethnic group

CougarBlue08

Or its not. When you start attributing success due to race, it's very dangerous

Fans come here to talk sports. In that context, when culture is discussed, it is team culture. Not race or ethnicity.
