Perhaps you can take a break from your obsession and contemplate the last paragraph of this article.
"Do you have a “list of no-good [n-word]that you keep around the house? Maybe you use the notes app on your phone, or even a Google Doc?
Paul Smith has a “list of no-good [n-word].” He’s the chief of the Cecil Township Fire Department, about 20 miles outside of Pittsburgh. On Sunday, he felt so comfortable announcing to the world who had just been added to his “list of no-good [n-word]” that he posted it as a status on his Facebook page.
We’re not quite clear on how exhaustive a list Smith has built over the years, but this much we do know, thanks to the Facebook post: Pittsburgh Steelers head coach Mike Tomlin has now found himself on Smith’s list. What’s strange is that Smith didn’t put Tomlin on his “list of no-good [n-word]” — instead, Tomlin put himself on that list.
“Tomlin just added himself to the list of no-good [n-word]” Smith wrote. To be clear that he wasn’t fooling around about Tomlin being on his list, Smith finished off his post with, “Yes I said it.”
The Intercept reached out to Tomlin to see when and how he added himself to Smith’s “list of no-good [n-word],” but we have not heard back yet.
Later, after the post, Smith offered something of an apology and said he simply couldn’t help himself, offering something of an explanation along the way. “I was frustrated and angry at the Steelers not standing for the anthem,” Smith
texted a local reporter — and when Smith gets angry and frustrated, black men add themselves to his “list of no-good [n-word]
We also learned something from Smith’s apology: Tomlin added himself to Smith’s “list of no-good [n-word]” during the
unprecedented NFL protests over the weekend, when more than a dozen teams and about 200 players participated in some form of demonstration in solidarity with Colin Kaepernick. Tomlin’s Pittsburgh Steelers did not emerge from the locker room on Sunday during the national anthem. That seems to be how he landed himself on Smith’s “list of no-good [n-word].”
Yet
Seattle Seahawks Coach Pete Carroll or Tennessee Titans Coach Mike Mularkey did not add themselves to Smith’s list. Or, if they did add themselves, Smith simply forgot to write a Facebook status about it. Those two coaches, both white, also chose to keep their entire teams off the field during the national anthem on Sunday, as did Tomlin, but doing so seemed to only earn Tomlin a spot on the “list of no-good [n-word].”

Afraid to answer? You're not usually at a loss for words. I do understand how hard this is to spin, though..
