“One Man’s Opinion by Gordon Curvey

As some of you know I am a huge sports fan. I am so busy producing my music program “Music Inner City TV” I really have not gave the time I should with this site. Truth be told their are not to many sites like this on the net. A urban sports website. People of color stories in the sports world.

Why is type of site needed? Because of the lack of people of color in sports radio as well as other places in the media. One of the few national sports personalities who is a person of color or in his case a African American is Stephen A. Smith. You can see him every morning on “First Take” on ESPN2 with Skip Bayless or if you are in New York City he is on radio on ESPN Radio.

For sure Smith gives his opinions. You can agree with him big time or disagree with him big time. This is what happens to me when it comes to Stephen A. At times I say “go ahead Smith!! You are right” But other times I say “I totally disagree with this brotha” That happened for instance when he was on Arsenio.

He gave his opinions on the situation on DeSean Jackson (I discuss Jackson on “Sports Inner City Radio”) and I agreed with what he said, but on the subject of Kobe Bryant STUPID comments regarding Trayvon Martin I totally disagreed. I will discuss Bryant’s comments soon right here on SIC Online. Kobe in my opinion was out of pocket with views.

I am very happy to see a African American like Smith on TV everyday along with Micheal Wilborn and others on ESPN. Let’s face it the sports media is dominated by whites. It is just a fact. Smith talks about this at times. So it is great to have the “other side” of the story instead of just one side. Like for instance the Washington Redskins story and more.

That is why a website like mine is needed. To try to tell the other side of the story on issues in the sports world. I know I been slow with stories but this is going to change. There is just to much stuff going on in sports. So stay tuned!
