I didn't say, nor do I think, he should be fired. Read what I said. I also don't think he should be fired if this was his opinion and he expressed it. I meant exactly what I said. If you choose to misread it so be it. And by the way, he didn't say unconsciously.
I didn't say you said that. Read what *I* said.

You said "It's also unclear why Wilbon should be fired for expressing an opinion about the way *other people think.". Sorry if I misunderstood.

That's correct.
Wilbon said that other people would discount McCaffrey because other people discount white running backs. Wilbon is not expressing his opinion that white running backs are inferior, he is expressing the opinion that *others* believe white running backs are inferior. It is unclear why someone would fire Wilbon for expressing other people's opinions.
