Christian McCaffrey IS being discussed for NFL MVP.

Note J.J. Watt's weak (some would say pathetic) tweet on the subject. At the moment the major sports media is not paying much attention to it. I wouldn't be surprised if a crescendo of support for the comment suddenly appears. But it might just vanish from the news in a few days.

He could say, "All White people should be killed," and nothing would happen to him. He wouldn't lose his job, assuming he has one.

This was part of Rose's act: A White guy with limited athleticism who did it with desire and hustle. I've seen Rose quoted, "I have no athletic ability." And "I run pretty good for a White man." He said things like this often, especially late in his career. One of his biographers noted that...

Christian McCaffrey had already passed Larry Csonka in regular season 100-yard games. CMC now has 20 to Csonka's 16. Playoff games are counted separately.

He threw the lateral on the Music City Miracle.

The MLB Network has a new two-hour show on George Brett, premiered Thursday night. It shows George Brett as the greatest hitter of his era. It's amazing how many big home runs he had in big games, playoffs especially. A great White player gets a worthy tribute. It will be repeated several...

In 2022 CMac gained 393 yards for Carolina and 746 for the 49ers, totaling 1139. It is correct to say this is the first year he went over a thousand for the 49ers.

It's easier to adopt a black kid because there are so many more of them available for adoption than White kids. I read somewhere that black couples rarely adopt.

Yes, the gambling is the main reason. The DWFs are too stupid to understand statistical probability.

I'm something of a True Crime junkie. For a long time there was a quasi-official position of "there are no black serial killers." A FBI "profiler" declaimed this regularly.

Jim Taylor of Lombardi's Packers with 1474 yards and a 5.4 per carry average in 1962. Taylor had five straight 1000 yard seasons 1960-64. He finished second to Jim Brown four times, led the league in 1962.

I sometimes wonder if Christian McCaffrey had been named Christian Smith or Jones and from a small town in Tennessee or West Virginia he would have been a walk-on.

Being traded to the 49ers was the best thing that could happen for CMac.

The key to the slant of this SI story on Lasse Viren is that Kenny Moore was a friend of Steve Prefontaine, who was a White American distance runner of the early 70s. Prefontaine was killed in 1975 in a traffic accident and had been training to beat Viren in 1976. Steve Prefontaine was highly...

Have you ever heard this expression? "We fought them the same way they fought us."

Cody Schrader is a White American running back.

I remember in my childhood baseball being the number one sport and how big the World Series was. They didn't need the hype machine used for the Super Bowl. Until 1971 the WS was played during the daytime. People would tell each other what the score was.

The Nashville authorities ae more concerned about the release of the three pages than they are about the contents. They don't appear bothered much by the killer's motivation. And they flat out lied by claiming there was "no political content" in the killer's writing. Tennessee is a Red state...

I remember Frank Howard hitting a long HR for the Dodgers in the 4th game of the 1963 World Series to help them beat the Yankees. Sixty years ago. I recall a long HR by him in the 1969 All Star Game. Both I saw on TV. With Frank Howard the home runs were always long.

The Cowboys were stacked for CMac which enabled others to get free and the 49ers won big.

I referenced that 1968 SI series on this Forum some 15 years ago. A good many of the things it claimed only black athletes suffered from also happened to White athletes. For example, coaches taking a dislike to a player for no good reason, being buried on a depth chart even if a good player...

I checked Curly Lambeau's Wiki entry. The name Lambeau Field is so imbedded in NFL history that the Packers refused to sell the stadium name, instead selling corporate names to entrance gates. The Packers being home owned is a factor in this undoubtedly. Ironically Vince Lombardi 60 years ago...

I well remember the 1970 World Series and the impression Brooks Robinson made with his phenomenal fielding. He also hit .429 with 2 home runs. Brooks Robinson won the 1970 Hickock Belt as the top pro athlete of 1970. The Hickock Belt was a big thing at the time.

I saw him on TV's Game of the Week constantly in the 60s and early 70s. His play at third base was phenomenal and he got a lot of big hits.
