I’m sure he has and that’s the point. White running backs that produce at a high level are basically non-existent in P4 or NFL.
Next week, Andy will be wearing a white sheet with a pointy hood and talking about the University of Iowa's football program and basketball roster.
You'd be a lot happier with our 6-0 cyclones if you stopped paying attention to Andy fales
The only thing I'm offended by is the people who keep explaining the joke. We all got it, the first time and the 10 times after that when he just repeated it.
If a "joke" has to be explained, it is neither a joke or funny.

plausible, however he has a track record of making bits around race and equating racial injustice from the 40s/50s/60s to white athletes today.
I couldn't even get all the way through that. It was just really weird.
Got it. I don’t watch his show- but that would track…he sounds like he’s just a tool.
Fales missed the mark on this one. More cringy than funny. I'd say the same thing regardless of which team/player he was talking about. It was equivalent to a bad SNL skit that just keeps going.
To me that was the biggest problem. It just kept going and going. A one-off joke about it may have gotten a laugh and people would have moved on, but he just kept dragging it out saying it over and over, which just made it more and more awkward.
Hassel is great, replace with Eickholt.
They said last week that they've gotten more downloads/views on the new show than they did on the old show. I'm guessing that doesn't take into account live listeners on the old show.
You know what I think is the most cringy/possibly offensive part of it? The fact that he goes on for a while 'trying' not to say white. If you want to make the joke, just ******* make the joke.
Either way, it is a dumb and lazy joke that is fairly offensive and possibly racist. And, like I said last night, this isn't the first time Sales has tried to compare a white athlete to a black athlete in a way that makes it sound like the white athlete is being discriminated against.

Do that once and it's funny. To build a whole skit over it is cringey. It's the difference between The Simpsons having Sideshow Bob step on rakes for an episode, and Family Guy popping that drawn out injured knee bit across multiple episodes.
My brother told me it was all about Hansen being white and I couldn't believe it. the last 2-3 weeks have been BIG swing and misses from him.

Hok fans/IA media shouldn’t be that surprised by a good RB who happens to be white.
You shouldn’t be surprised about the softies on this site that get offended by the dumbest ****. It’s comical really what offends people on here.
