In 1988, CBS sports commentator Jimmy the Greek was fired after making controversial remarks about the genetic superiority of black athletes, attributing their physical prowess to selective breeding during slavery. The hosts discuss how his comments on "husbandry" and "high thighs" stepped on a major social "third rail." Despite support from black athletes like Ahmad Rashad and Walter Payton, the media fallout was swift, illustrating the taboo nature of discussing the intersection of genetics and history.
