Prejudice

         ~ Prejudice ~

   O, that's a snappy book jacket
   That book looks interesting
      I think I'll buy it...

   Doesn't she have a wonderful smile
   It just lights up the universe
      She'd be a terrific goodwill ambassador for the WNBA*...

   Wow! Look at how long his fingers are
   Looks like he can cover two octaves on the piano with one hand
      I'll just bet he can really tinkle those ivies...

       ~  Prejudice  ~

Indeed, performance be damned without the good fruits. I have given up on all spectator sports, and most athletes, though there are a few who are real champions.... Who speak their freedom loving minds openly. I don't follow much of what they do and say, so I am at a loss if you are referring to a particular incident.
