Hi guys, about the handle, I just wanted to make a stupid joke. I'm not going to post much (reasons outlined below) so I don't guess it will be too grating.
I've been lurking here a couple of years and just want to express my appreciation for the board. I don't watch college football, have only watched pro for ten-twelve years, and never played in HS (I did go through spring training once, but an unanticipated move aborted my career as a C-team member), and so I couldn't handle my end of the caliber of information posted here. But I just wanted to say thanks, and to post this link. Absurd. I don't know much more to say.

Thanks for finally registering to post DWFan! Lapchick (more like lapdog) is full of it and we have discussed his work here before. Funny how they never look at the lack of diversity when it comes to whites in the skill positions of the NFL.

NFL Network gets an A, though. I mean, it must. All black all the time. There's usually only one annoying white guy around per broadcast, screwing things up for the diversity crew.

I also wonder who the "Asian" players are. I don't think there is a pure blooded asian in the NFL right now. They are probably counting islanders as "Asian".

Let's not even get into the huge, huge problem of figuring out which guys are "Latino". Changing the definition of that word from it's original and correct usage into it's modern usage will prove to be one of the biggest mistakes in US federal government history.

A B+ in diversity meaning that there are still numerous white players in positions that the caste has worked hard to make all black, like QB and OL, but haven't yet accomplished. The Asian and Latino stats are just baloney to muddy the picture, they could care less. If the NFL was 100% black, no one in the media, or the race hustlers at UCF would have any problem with it whatsoever. All diversity has ever and will ever mean in relation to America is "Non-white."
