I may be taking this way out of proportion, but I think Rich Eisen and Deion Sanders said something racist during the NFL Scouting Combine.
Sanders mentioned that, during a commercial break, he was eating a peanut butter and jelly sandwich.
Eisen asked, "What do you call a peanut butter and jelly sandwich?"
Sanders responded, "A black man's steak."
I am not a black man, but I'm sure I would prefer a steak over a peanut butter and jelly sandwich if I could afford it. Regardless of the color of my skin.
Again, I may be taking this out of context. But it sounds like Eisen and Deion are implying that an African-American cannot afford steak, so they eat PB&J as an alternative.
