Obviously, he has received the attention he deserves
as the future of quarterbacking. Yet, he is quite an all-around
athlete. Sadly, I once heard him say, "I'm completely
white". He used it in a negative sense. There was no
comment about Ben's comment. Of course, he was just joking.
Anti-white phrases have entered into the lexicons of today. When
someone successfully throws a crumpled piece of paper into the trash
they proclaim "I'm so black". The best free throw shooters are
Italian in general. At least judging by the Olympics.

With a solid grind it out offense, Ben should be
able to throw some deep play action passes when defenses move up to
stop the run.

I hate it when people say thigs like that about their own race. I didn't know Ben said that, but I think if he keeps performing the way he has, it will end up being a good thing, no matter what he meant by it.

I believe he said it against Louisville towards the
end of the season. He was talking about how good his
offensive line was . He ran a 4.75 forty yard dash at the combine.</span>

I don't even remember who he played college ball for.

Cool, I knew it was in that region but I didn't know the school.

As good as Ben may be at football he sucks in general as a person. I know this guy who grew up in Findlay(Ben's home town) and he said that Ben was very arrogant and pretty much an a$$hole. Also my friend used to buy bud from the same dealer at Miami U. as Roethlisburger. I'm just glad to hear he's a smoker.

I'm not doubting your source CB, but I have known college football players who other people talked bad about all the time. I think its an epidemic in the US. Whether its true or not, all I want him to do is set it on fire this year, as he is my starting fantasy QB.
