It all begins in the trenches. That's why Penning is still available. (sarcasm)

The usual suspects desperately trying to blacken up the O-line as they've been trying to (and failing) for decades

And just like that we'll never see another White OL again..

Someone from ABC said that Zion Johnson apparently "learned how to build computers" in high school, and "looks like a Fortune 500 CEO", whatever that means.

Whenever a White-friendly team wins the Super Bowl, there seems to be an order from above to make the following draft even more coal black than usual. Not going bigunreal, just real.

The ultra-dark 2015 draft followed the Patriots' epic victory over Pete's Plantation in the Super Bowl.

So much for this being a "copycat league" right?

Actually, this trade is probably for an offensive lineman. Penning would be the best pick here, but Tyler Smith wouldn't surprise me.

They sure do go out of their way to show black prospects with their girlfriends/wives if they happen to be white. There's no way that what they've shown is proportionally representatives of all black prospect couples.

One out of every three picks so far has been a WR. Insane.

Trevor Penning is bigger, faster, stronger, quicker and more agile than Kenyon Green. Penning's RAS is 9.95 while Green's is 5.98. Penning plays OT which has more positional value than a a guard, which is Green's position.

The selection of Green over Penning is almost certainly because Penning is white.

Penning to the Saints. Will the Steelers get Pickett? Will Tomlin get his quota and the Steelers convert back to the Crawfords?
