Merrill Hoge, ESPN's 49 year old resident punk, opined last night that Flacco is now the best quarterback in the league. Trey Wingo and Eric Mangini both snickered at that assertion, but the point is that no longer will the CM media and DWFs be able to dis Joe after winning the Super Bowl, and becoming the first quarterback ever to lead his team to a playoff victory in each of his first five seasons in the league.

Hoge and Mangini both listed their top five QBs in the league right now, and refreshingly neither pandered and mentioned Griffin or Newton, all listed were White, as they should have been.
The media tends to go overboard on whomever leads their team to a Super Bowl win. But there is no doubt he is among the top 6 qb's in the league. I think even if Baltimore lost in a tight game I would regard him as that as players like Rivers and Palmer have dropped back and he has taken his game a level higher in the past two years. Ps the same Hoge types hyped up Eli after his win last season and were stating he wasn't elite by the middle of this season....

Donald Driver probably isn't at the skill level of Boyd Dowler or accomplishments of Boyd Dowler. If any receiver besides Hutson is on the Packers Mt. Rushmore it's probably Sterling Sharpe. The only reason Driver is viewed so highly is because he played in pass friendly era. Even Sterling Sharpe had tougher pass coverage to deal with as the safeties in his era could head hunt more and horse collar tackles were legal.

Driver was a very good possession receiver who was durable and played a long time. He also came from a troubled background and by all reports was a good citizen with a room brightening smile during his time in the NFL so he became "beloved" by the media and the DWF masses in the way that only blacks can. What got me was the "Mt. Rushmore" reference. Saying he belongs in the Packers' hall of fame or ring of honor or whatever is fine, but the reference to Mt. Rushmore is over the top and disrespectful of what that monument is supposed to represent.

But then again give it time; would it be that surprising if 25 or 50 years from now the men now sculpted on that famous mountain have been replaced by Martin Luther King, Barack Obama, Tiger Woods and Snoop Dogg (or maybe Oprah Winfrey)?

I'm having a hard time to come up with a player of his caliber in baseball, but he would be something akin to Bill Buckner or Harold Baines? With all of the great hall of fame Packers somebody of that caliber doesn't belong with Hutson, Starr, Nitschke, Davis, Farve etc.

Those are pretty good comparisons. I wouldn't compare Driver to Dale Murphy, who has been soundly rejected by the baseball HOF voters, or Jack Morris, but I'd say it's 50-50 he sneaks into Canton eventually. There's a good chance there'll be a bandwagon attempt at some point, much like what was used for Art Monk.

As said before on the Forum, Jim Plunkett was never considered a "minority" QB. He was thought of as white during his playing career.
Since Hispanics/Latinos are a growing group that the NFL wants to regard football as their sport(not soccer). I have noticed that many historical good to great players who had partial to full Latino heritage are being trumpeted as Latino first and maybe White second(or maybe not White at all like Plunkett). I noticed that Tom Fears is now a "Latino trailblazer", Ted Hendricks is now "Latino" and the late Steve Van Buren is another "Latino trailblazer". I guess the NFL is following the lead of MLB and is blatantly ethnic pandering....:frusty:

Just looking at the HOF inductees this year just tells me that the NFL is peaking and soon even the slob DWFs/"BigFans" are going to be mocked much less the apes taking over the sidelines. (yes I said apes, look back at the SB, every big play was followed by a sideline camera pan with a black male glowering and stomping like Jambo at the zoo) The CMs that mock the clean cut white man image are going to get what they deserve, the NBA with concussions and lawsuits.

Implicit whiteness? Not necessarily. Madonna might have gotten the same. Implicit exhaustion with garbage culture (which is connected to implicit whiteness) ala the train-wreck-gazing with the Kardashian Mudsharks. Yup. Still a ways off though...

She looks like she was given the "good stuff" from Madonna's personal trainer.....:tongue:

Is it just me or does Beyonce in that photo, strike a bearing resemblance to Mama June from Here Comes Honey Boo Boo, albeit a bit thinner?

Most DWFs hate the Patriots, but many bettors don't. According to the daily Vegas rag, New England has been the betting favorite to win the 2014 Super Bowl since sports books opened on the game during the weekend the conference championships were played. They're currently sitting at 6-1 odds to win the Big One.

Beyonce is about as attractive as black females get, but her body language and some of her facial expressions are disturbing -- she comes across as extremely hard-bitten and nasty and a hater of men, as the lyrics to many of her songs make clear.


Good insights here:


The Desexing of Beyonce

by Colin Liddell

The female pop star is akin to the mayfly; a delicate little creature that appears briefly, in the flower of its life, flutters around, oohs and aahs, and then disappears…no one knows where. This is its essence and natural law. If it continues past its sell-by-date it has to evolve into a different creature and jettison much of what makes it it.

I use the term it advisedly, in order to reflect the great wisdom and discovery of our gloriously enlightened age, namely that gender is just another color painted on the canvas – or a squiggly line on the etch-a-sketch – of human nature.

An it can be a he when it wants, or a she – lift up the toilet seat or lay it down; a pitcher or a catcher, a patcher or citcher; the possibilities are endless and we haven’t even introduced sheep, children, or dead people yet.

By abolishing this arbitrary distinction between one half of humanity and the other, think of all the human kapital that can be unleashed and marketized in the same way that we were able to marketize the ability of the financially illiterate to pay off mortgages!

But back to Beyonce and any other female pop star who’s been at it too long. Blinded by the limelight’s glare they flutter unthinkingly across the Faustian line into rather too much success and somewhat too lengthy a career. But instead of their souls, which possibly remain locked up in their little toes, what they end up losing is their femininity.

We’ve been here before: Madonna at the start of her career. If not exactly virginal, there was nevertheless something girlish, sexy, even cute about her; typified by her mascaraed doe eyes, downy eyebrows, and candy-store costumery: a guilty pleasure, a furry peach, a naughty little girl, innocence begging corruption.

But then she also strayed beyond the chronology of the pop mayfly, something she could only do by jettisoning all femininity. That and that alone would make the God of Pop-Death turn away and bestow his amnesia-inducing attentions elsewhere. From the faux-innocence of femininity that evoked thoughts of deflowerment, she turned herself into a desert of sexless depravity.

The form this took was a bundle of rigorously honed muscles on bone; a gyrating automaton that robotically aped sexuality in all its absurdity; sex on a stick projected at a fast retreating public; one giant car-crash with a million rubber-neckers, a freak-show for the name-recognition generation, the great unwashed collectors of unlistened to CDs.

We see the same thing with Beyonce. Widely regarded as the most beautiful “woman of color,” she has been trapped by that vital PR role and the R’n’B references of her ethnicity to pump and grind and shake that booty like the flywheel of a steam engine till every hint of femininity has been stripped away, leaving only a ghastly marionette show; a grinning death’s head caricature of sexuality that fits perfectly into a stadium-filling aesthetic that has its roots in the earlier part of the twentieth century.

“The Fame Monster,” Lady Gaga called it without knowing what she was referring to. We want our Whores of Babylon, but they have to be mighty. But they can only be mighty by losing all feminine weakness and becoming pure Will-to-Power dressed in leather lingerie. To drive the machine of global fame, they have to accept a kind of "unigender fascism," a mixture of masculine muscle, howling, and pain comingled with the feminine desire to be loved and coveted: emotionally feminine; physically masculine.Spengler said apropos the approach of Fascism:


“Hardness, Roman hardness is taking over now. Soon there will be no room for anything else. Art, yes; but in concrete and steel. Literature, yes; but by men with iron nerves and uncompromising depth of vision.”


If he had known the popular culture of our times, he would have recognized Beyonce as a misplaced manifestation of his thought. Show business is a Fascistic realm of ruthless competition. The competition may be towards the crassest, the lamest, or the lowest common denominator, but it is competition all the same and just as ruthless as the Stalingrad front.

The dynamic of show business is vertical not horizontal; it is masculine not feminine, and those women who push themselves to get to top can only excel by becoming its and not shes.

Because she’s Black – despite her mulatto blood, skin lightener, and hair straightener (wigs?) – Beyonce can go a lot further along this road before anyone dare notice that the empress, while not exactly naked, looks pretty ****ing gruesome, and more like the emperor or Conan the Barbarian.

Her half-time show at the Super Bowl brought this into focus. Called on to outdo her usual schlock, she overreached herself causing her mask to slip beyond the PR recovery zone, presenting photographers with the chance to capture a scowling, she-Hulk monstrosity, with thighs like pistons, and unnatural hair that seemed stapled on in an ironic comment on her lost femininity.

A woman that prostitutes her sexuality in the manner of Madonna or Beyonce can justly be called a bitch – even though this is an insult to many a decent canine – but when such a bitch aspires to Whore of Babylon status she risks becoming merely a dog.

Watched most of the game but not the half-time filth ritual. Too bad that mess has been the talk of the month by many on radio. Enough already! Glad Flacco was MVP and that his team won, but was depressed by the racial composition of the two teams that were involved. Hopefully it will be better next season. While we're at it, let's have a few more decent college bowl games.
