Nothing against Vig Raines or black actors in general, but why are they remaking Kojak as a black guy? They could have called it 'Blackjack'What's next, a gay 'Shaft?' An Amish 'Mannix?' ------------------ '70 Mustang Mach 1 351C 4V/FMX/3.25 Open '70 Mustang Convertible 250 I6/3 speed/2.79 Open '72 Mustang Sprint Hardtop 351C 4V/FMX/4.30 Trac Loc '94 F-150 XL 5.8L/E4OD/3.55 Limited Slip

exactly what I was saying when Wil Smith play James West in "The Wild Wild West" remake. Nothing against Wil Smith, I like him as an actor just fine, but come on.------------------ "It's better to have loved a short girl, Then never to have loved a tall" http://webpages.charter.net/adragon8u/mystang

Kojack drove Buicks so the new Jamal Kowhatever will drive a LaCrosse. They're black ofcourse and coupled with Steve's French translation of LaCrosse, the show will be another handj*b!! LOL!
