In this excellent time-wasting game, http://www.flashgames.it/freekick.mania.html your goal is to score penalty kicks, choosing between 3 soccer stars like Beckham, Roberto Carlos and Park. You have to be blind (or at least color blind) to ignore the fact, that player have been chosen not because of their skills but because of the color of their skin. is this a gaming affirmative action, if so, where is the female (obviously a Muslim player is out of the question). i wouldn't mind scoring with that nice US soccer player that toke her shirt off after the winning penalty kick few years ago. that remind me of the same politics that assembled the kids from Captain Planet, although it made me think maybe there were more powerful and skillful contenders that didn't qualify for Planet's gang just because their skin color was already taken.
