Im perusing the Marylands Athletic web site hoping to find some info on prospective football players. When I look at other D1 colleges web sites the current football players are listed under " Recruits ". I looked up and down and left and right for the recruits link for the U of Maryland and finally found it under " Student Athletes". Considering how coal black Marylands roster is I find it rather hypocritical to use Student Athletes when referring to their thugs for hire.

Just think of how bad it is for those in the deep South. If I want to see a college team on TV, all I can (halfheartedly) root for is Vanderbilt.

The black affletes help schools with their affirmative action quotas for black minorities. If it weren't for the caste system in sports, the percentage of blacks in major universities would be well below 5%. As for the label of "student athlete", well, we all know that to call these mercenaries "students" is with some exceptions, ludicrous.

Good point FBD. If not for cultmarx spawned AA & the caste system, 75-90% of these "stoo'din affletes" would be (rightfully) pushin a broom, diggin ditches or throwin trash on the back of a BFI truck for a living.
