MLK Jr. Jr. makes news with ESPN for Black History Month. In addition to being a subpar public speaker, he is apparently a sports fan.

QuoteYour favorite sports moment, either as a player or as a fan.
Tony Dungy winning the Super Bowl. We had two African-American coaches, so it was difficult to decide who to root for. I went with Tony Dungy because of his style.
Oh please. That's such a fake stock answer. I'm sure he was very happy to see two black coaches in the Super Bowl. But favorite sports moment? If that's it then he's not much of a fan.

It was at that moment that I knew that Jews were respected, unequivocally, as athletes.
