If you are a connoisseur of sophisticated social satire in the tradition of Mark Twain and Jonathan Swift, prepare yourself for Martellus Bennett's latest opus. It is entitled-simply, eloquently-Black Olympics.
Yeah, so it's not exactly Voltaire. If you don't care to watch the whole Mac-manipulated ouevre, Martellus Bennett and his brother (Seahawks DE) Michael Bennett engage in a series of slightly-very-racist eating contests. Round 1: Fried Chicken. Round 2: Kool Aid. Round 3: Watermelon…and so on and so forth.
Honestly it's really more uncomfortable than offensive. The problem isn't so much MartyB doesn't know how to handle touchy racial stereotypes as that he seems generally oblivious. (What can I say? The man likes his chicken.)
Anyway, should you want something slightly more deft to cleanse the palate:
And perhaps less relevant, but probably the funniest thing I have ever seen:
