After a breakout 2018 season Laird is long overdue his own thread! Nearly 1500 all purpose yards as a Junior! Here's to consecutive 1K season's.

Nice interview here

Excellent article/interview. This kid really has a great mind. That is as important as the physical
attributes he has. Just look at C.McCaffrey. Very excited to see him have a chance to lead the
Pac 12 in rushing this fall.

It's mentioned in the video highlights that he was the 4th back the year before, and had NO scholarship offers out of high school.

Laird should be fun to watch this year......

Was just watching these highlights again, Laird's a very impressive runner. And, like Jack mentioned above, the announcer says in wonderment at 2:26, "He had no scholarship offers coming out of high school." Yet another announcer feigning ignorance of the Caste System. Just once it would be great to hear an announcer say, "And to what should be no one's surprise, like most star White running backs, receivers and defensive players, he had no scholarship offers coming out of high school."

The kid has very nice moves and toughness to go with it. He has the top end speed to take it to the house too. I'm
very excited to see if he can build on last year. If he can rush for over 1000 yards again on a poor Cal Team, he should
be a lock to get drafted into the nfl. Of course that is in a fair world. I think he is going to have another big year!

I cant imagine how exhausting it must be to have to deal with these trolls all the time as a moderator. This falsehood will no doubt be plastered on a Rachel Madcow episode shortly and work against the message of this site.

Laird has the best chance to shine as a true RB if a series of injuries and good fortune take place. Could be Zenner like.

Dude you’ll learn soon enough.

You just proved everything that has been said about DWF on this site. Your attitude of being smug and condescending just pours out of your sarcastic remark. The only thing I can say is to keep watching Rachel & Ellen and one day you might get to move out of your parent's house.

Thanks for the advice, i’m hoping to move out of my sister’s basement one day but need a couple of Schlomo's checks in order to do so. I would work very hard to be controlled opposition online for reddit, youtube and here. A real good Hollywood Nazi-type Larper as well and willing to work on one of the 50 some Yom Kippur-like holidays. Can you please put in a good word for me?

Lurked here forever, theres only about 10 real posters who make this site work.the good news is that there are a **** ton of lurkers either directly or indirectly who are now openly mocking BSPN caste-speak.

I remember the old trolling days of multiple ( Jason Kidd is the best white PG) threads. That clown who used to give racial breakdowns of forty point underdog football teams and act shocked when the slightly whiter FCS school would get beat by an SEC team. I always pictured a yeshiva computer lab of kids working a class project for the majority of the other posters.

Many apologies to Patrick Laird, may this make an awkward first page of hopefully 1000 page+ career.

DWF Upside, what upset you in this thread? I honestly can't figure it out. . .

The part about “we” staying in power and positions of influence is begging to be taken out of context and publicized by some commie organization. It assumes this is 100% self inflicted. That we need to hold others down instead of merely creating an equal playing field.

The post by its self its not the biggest troll post ever but in combination with multiple questionable other posts its a dealbreaker.

It drives me nuts because there is a certain group that owns the majority of the pro sports teams, the media, the recruiting services, etc. and its not normal guys like us. These caste coach/GM’s might look like us but are merely pawns with little to no real power. If they step out of line they're memory-holed, without even a Rest in Peace thread on here, they're just gone.

This site does a wonderful job of pointing out the flawed system the powers that be have created, but its such an uphill battle to change things. Ran over. Good job with this place though.

Very good points. I keep a close eye on new posters and appreciate feedback, though sometimes it's better done through pms than posts.

Speaking of new posters, we've had a fair amount of promising posters over the past year or so, but for some reason they rarely post. They start off by making some quality posts and I see them on the site -- but they post rarely or not at all, or disappear altogether. As you mention, there's a small number of posters doing a lot of the heavy lifting these days, so new posters are very much encouraged to post and help build traffic and interest. And that goes for veteran posters too -- we need more participants and fewer passengers.

With that said, from here let's get this particular thread back on topic. The other things mentioned can be discussed elsewhere.

Thank you for all your help. I browsed this site a couple years before joining and I’ve shared it with several brothers already.
So not just I but WE ( all of us whom agree with the cause of this site and want to fight for truth and fairness in sports and other arenas) thank you for this site.

One thing I’ve learned about our situation in the western world is those that are are against us will always take things out of context and they will always lie, twist and distort the truth. It’s a part of their corrupt cowardly nature and their mental derangement. They have their agenda of destruction, obfuscation and corruption...

We have our agenda of truth, faith, family, patriotism and union.

Thank you Castefootball.us

Now back to our regularly scheduled programming...I’m hearing Patrick Laird is looking very hard and has really transformed his body. He’s is the best physical condition of his life without question! His agility scores were among the very top of all players signed via draft or free agency.
