He is wearing a oversized pastel pink sweater. His blond hair is draped across one shoulder. Apollo is wearing an oversized purple hoodie. His nails are painted purple. He is sleeping on Klavier, smiling softly, head against his collarbone, one hand on Klavier’s chest, the other on Klavier’s back. Klavier has a hand on Apollo’s shoulder and another on Apollo’s back. He is kissing Apollo on the forehead. The background is in pastel colors of blue, pink, and yellow. End ID.]

pace & power (iconic sketch): describe black athletes as dependent entirely on their physical gifts. a way to imply they are neither skilled nor intelligent, and effectively lock them out of leadership positions and post career coaching / analysis roles.

lazy: taking the gifted athlete argument to its conclusion, saying they don't work hard in training or in game. as though any pro athlete isn't incredibly disciplined and the margins for getting replaced aren't incredibly fine. also who fucking cares about training, in game quality is all that matters everyone loved eden hazard.

lifestyle issues: describe black athletes as uniquely irresponsible and distracted by doing normal celebrity things like modeling fashion, featuring on rap music videos, buying houses or partying. this also comes up with a dose of classism in the context of black athletes who may have made it out of the slums or projects.

ungrateful: fans usually want all athletes to be thankful to them, but they want black athletes to never ever challenge this compact even when they break it by racially abusing their own players. its also a way of disciplining players who command power by virtue of their reputation and skills – how dare you, have more power than me, a white person who pays for your career? white fans already feel ownership over their teams, but society tells them that all black people should be even lower than the white athlete you already justified calling wanker. and therefore the black athlete who can negotiate a big contact is ungrateful.
