Hello Gents,
Here is an interesting slant to add weight to our argument.
It would take a while but a way to prove the existence of the caste system to the non-believer is to get the % of White WR's who fit into the category of Cinderella Story and made it all the way to the NFL.
For example, the Cinderella Story could be a Walk-on in college, Free Agent in NFL or small school success story making it in the pros(i.e. no large school would offer the receiver a scholarship)
If we then take this as a % of Whites WR's that are on NFL rosters then we get the Cinderella %. This would be a good way to explain to the caste deniers that the caste system exists.
Lets all use our knowledge to document the current Cinderella Stories that are alive in NFL. I will start it off
Kevin Curtis-Walk on Utah State
Wes Welker-Free Agent from Texas Tech
Mike Furrey-Walk on Ohio State who got playing time as FRESHMAN but no scholarship and had to move to Northern Iowa and then spent time at Safety at Rams before succeeding on the Lions
Drew Bennett-Free Agent for Titans
David Kircus-unhearalded out of Grand Valley State and cut and spent a year in subway despite avg 20 yrds catch rookie year and then cut!
Help me out here but just WR's and on active roster for this study..
