    You get sports commentary from RedState? Unattributed, of course, and
    with heaps of hindsight in calling out commentary from a year ago.

    Gimme a break.
    He quoted the original source.

    Without attribution, so not a quote as such.

    It doesn't matter what website conveyed that. What was said, was said.

    Well, yes, it does. And what was said wasn't so great. Smith didn't
    predict a losing season, he recommended black coaches not consider
    working for the Texans, so a winning season doesn't make him "an imbecile."

    Apparently you missed the fact that the new coach was also black.

    Smith's recommendation wasn't a prediction about the 2023 season, no
    matter the ethnicity of the new coach.

    Good thing the new guy had a winning season as the Texans have a history
    of impatience with previous black coaches.
