    Justin Fields on Black QBs

    Thanks for posting that. The reality is that some of the "slowest" QBs were/are also the best at avoiding sacks. Hmmm. But that can't be explored in depth because it involves intelligence, feel, and innate abilities that can't be compensated for by being able to run like a deer in headlights...

    Minnesota Vikings General Thread

    Another nice signing by the Vikings. Gotta believe Williams can beat out Jonathan Bullard, who in 8 NFL seasons has a career total of just 5.5 sacks and 180 combined tackles. ESPN’s Jeremy Fowler reports DT Jonah Williams is expected to sign with the Vikings. Williams recorded 49 tackles and...

    Great comeback win over the weekend by Scotty Scheffler to become the first man ever to win back-to-back Players championships! He edged Wyndham Clark, Brian Harman and Xander Schauffele by one stroke, winning with a score of -20. Great tournament. Scheffler is really ensconced as the world...

    Justin Fields on Black QBs

    Tomlin is pretty much the GM. He's now in his 18th year, GM Khan is just in his third. Tomlin is an egomaniac, that's why after all this time there's no Tomlin "coaching tree," which is pretty amazing when you think about it. He only hires assistant coaches who don't threaten his ego and I'm...

    Justin Fields on Black QBs

    A good tell is that none of the "five teams" supposedly interested in Fields in addition to the Steelers are mentioned, nor are any of the alleged better offers. Why not? Would it be giving away state secrets or imperil national security? Articles that make claims with no specifics or...

    Cleveland Browns General Thread

    I don't think "every average White fan" is too far gone. Some are oblivious, others notice and like it, others notice and don't like it, but there's no reward in speaking out. To publicly notice what an anti-White league the NFL is, is to be branded a "racist." As with everything else the...

    Justin Fields on Black QBs

    This fake news blurb made me chuckle. We're supposed to believe the Bears turned down better offers out of the goodness of their organizational heart, so that Fields has a better chance to develop. I guess it's possible in a league built on "lifting the Black man," but it comes across to me as...

    2024 PGA Tour

    Going into the final round, Xander Schauffele leads at -17, one shot ahead of Wyndham Clark. Reigning British Open champ Brian Harmon is two back at -15. 2022 U.S. Open champ Matt Fitzpatrick is -13, while Scottie Scheffler is lurking at -12. Three other players are within a half dozen shots...

    Los Angeles Chargers General Thread

    This looks like the only team without a general thread so might as well get one started. Will be interesting to see if Jim Harbaugh improves the team demographically as well as on the field. OurLads currently surprisingly lists Morgan Fox and Nick Niemann as defensive starters along of course...

    Cincinnati Bengals General Thread

    There were some rumors last season about the Crawfords trading Watt, the idea being to see what kind of haul they could get for him before he started to decline. Fortunately it hasn't happened, yet, but given the direction the Rooney Plantation is rapidly going demographically it can't be ruled...

    Cincinnati Bengals General Thread

    The Bengals re-sign Trenton Irwin to a one year $2 million contract. Hopefully he'll remain their fourth receiver with Charlie Jones replacing Tyler Boyd in the slot. This article predicts Jones will start. With Mike Gesicki their new tight end, Joe Burrow and a likely 4/5 o-line and their...

    Pittsburgh Steelers General Thread

    Got him for just a conditional sixth round pick in '25, which means the Bears all but gave Fields away. Looks like the Crawfords are giving the Browns a run for their money in the AFC North.

    2024 NFL Draft

    I did a search for Steele's pro day 40 time and found this description from an article: 1 day ago — UCLA Pro Day Report. UCLA hosted its annual Pro ... The first drill of the day was the 40-yard dash ... RB Carson Steele - 4.50. RB Colson Yankoff ... The article itself is on a pay site and I...

    Kansas City Chiefs General Thread

    LB Willie Gay signed with the Saints, leaving Drue Tranquill and Leo Chenal at the top of the depth chart along with Nick Bolton. The Chiefs often have just two LBs on the field so we'll have to see how things shake out but it's certainly a plus that Gay is gone.

    Pittsburgh Steelers General Thread

    Here's a good article, written right before Pickett was traded, about what really happened when Pickett didn't suit up against Seattle late last season. Mark Madden and others portrayed it as Pickett throwing a temper tantrum and refusing to play if he couldn't start but it was nothing like...

    Denver Broncos General Thread

    Glad for this signing, the Broncos are now saying that Drew Sanders is moving to the outside which I'm not thrilled about but at least they'll still have three talented White LBs after Jewell left.

    MLB 2024 Season

    So 11 White starting shortstops. That may be the least White position other than maybe one or more of the outfield spots. . .

    MLB 2024 Season

    The best way is to put the names of the White ones in bold, or alternatively list only the White ones.

    Los Angeles Rams General Thread

    Rams re-sign LB Christian Rozeboom. They also tendered Michael Hoecht, so two of their three White starters on D last year should be on the team again this year.

    Los Angeles Rams General Thread

    Jimmy G signs a one year deal with the Rams, always a good team for a White QB to be on. He'll be suspended for the first two games of the upcoming season.

    Pittsburgh Steelers General Thread

    Art Rooney, the founding owner of the Steelers and nicknamed "The Chief," came from a working class Irish background. He was fond of betting on horses and the story goes that he bought the Steelers franchise in 1933 for $2,500 after having a particularly good day at the track. Art never...

    Pittsburgh Steelers General Thread

    Many have been for years, easily the majority. Even many local media members snipe at him, in contradiction to the way they usually carry water for the Rooneys and everything they do. The attitude toward Tomlin is totally different locally than the way the national media still fawns over him.

    Pittsburgh Steelers General Thread

    That's why I've been writing of late that I hope they don't draft McConkey, Pearsall or Shipley. Same goes for Payton Wilson, Cooper DeJean, Braden Fiske and any others. Tomlin has always been one of "the (black) boys," enjoying the prima donnas on the team and former ones like his good buddy...
