We Representin' Up in This Piece!

Watching NBC's coverage of the Winter Olympics opening ceremonies, and not surprisingly I've only counted 3 black athletes (we're already up to the "R" countries). From Kenya, Ethiopia, and Costa Rica. Oh wait, up next is Serbia Montenegro...does that count? Oh well, that's to be expected. I don't recall growing up and seeing the brothas suiting up for slalom. Maybe we're all in Iceland this winter; according to Olympics sage Bob Costas, Iceland has more nightclubs per capita than any other country north of the equator. But Iceland has a good reason why: they spend over 3/4 the year in nighttime, so pretty much everything's considered a nightclub.

BREAKING NEWS!!! Senegal is fielding the fourth black Olympian of the Winter Olympics!
