Yea it's a shame that Spaziani has blind devotion to black quarterbacks. Makes it hard to fully support this team. BC has been a pretty white friendly team throughout it's history.

I'll add BC (with NW) as a team to root for this season. Too bad they don't sit the black quarterback. :-(

I have always found it hard to root for a team with a black black quarterback. There is ALWAYS a White man that would be better for the job. I dont care if he is the teams only negro starter, I cant root for a team with an affirmative action QB.

It helps if they have a White Tailback. I have noticed that a lot of teams that have a stud white Tailback will often have a black quarterback as well. The Ohio Bobcats pop into my mind as I type this. They have had several good White RBs the last 15 years or so, but always seem to have a black quarterback that drags them down.
 

white is right

Catholic schools traditionally only recruited Catholics. Back when football was dominated by the rust belt states Notre Dame had a monopoly on the best ethnic White players because most were Catholics. Most Black Americans are protestants, so they never went to Notre Dame or to a lesser extent BC. Obviously denomination means little these days as Muslims play for these teams but back in the 50's that would never happen.
