    2016 NFL Week 3

    I seriously thought about filing a complaint after my son was told by two D-1 coaches that they would not recruit him because he was a white RB. I was standing right there beside my son when they told him that, however, after he tore his ACL, twice, I didn't pursue it, because he received and...

    2016 NFL Week 3

    As many here have said and I hate to argue this point again, but I feel I should correct people who just don't know any better. FashAnonymous, I have been to AAU Track meets and many a' HS combines. One combine comes to mind was in Atlanta, the southeast regional combine,probably the toughest...

    2016 NFL Week 3

    BTW, welcome FashAnonymous! What was his 40 time ? His fastest hand time, which is not the most reliable was 4.49. His fastest laser time was 4.61. He was 5'11, 210lbs. His fastest shuttle was 4.0, which was the fastest among all N.C. RB's during his Junior year. BTW, 3 of the top 5 RB's in NC...

    2016 NFL Week 3

    Right FootballDad. I also had a son who not only dominated at combines in both the shuttle and 40 times. He was also an all state RB that rushed for over 3,000 yards during his junior season, and averaged over 11.0 yards per carry, only to tear his ACL twice, in the first game of his senior year...

    It's probably a lot like rap music. It's not the blacks that drive the sales, it's young white kids that buy that crap! There's not enough of the black population that have the money to buy all his jerseys. It's more likely white people doing the buying. I've said this before, but my wife once...

    Sports Double Standard

    .....yet the Nationals manager Dusty Baker can say white players are slow and get away with it. Someone in MLB or anywhere else needs to bring this to the Mariners attention!

    Trea Turner

    Good article in USA Today on Turner. Calling him the Nationals indispensable "burner." He's batting .341, 27 SB, and 12 HR's in 63 games. He's leading the NL in total bases, (156)since the All-Star break. He's one of only four players with 10 HR's, 25 stolen bases, and a .900 OPS, joining Mike...

    Most of the reaction among people I know, face book, etc. here in NC has been negative towards Colin K. When I discuss this with people I know they seem disgusted by his antics, then I say I no longer will support the NFL, they in turn shrug shoulders and are at the next Panther game on Sunday...

    Mike Trout

    I agree. He's probably my favorite athlete too. Although he tends to finish slow, he hasn't really had a huge hitting slump this season. I think he went o-10 one time this season. A lot of his stats are up this year including runs(115), RBI (95), BA: .316, SB 26, OBP .436, and OBP .992. He also...

    Mike Trout

    Mike Trout is now at 10.o7 WAR! He's the first player to have a 10.0 WAR since......Mike Trout in 2012. In this millennium, Trout (twice), Barry Bonds (three times), Sammy Sosa, and Alex Rodriquez are the only players to put up a 10.0 WAR season. The difference between Trout and the other three...

    2016 NFL Week 1

    Yes Heretic. What little I heard today centered around the greatness of Belichick. When Garoppolo's performance was mentioned, the discussion steered toward Belichick, not wanting to give Jimmy G. any credit for his one game performance. No mentioning of Edelman, Hogan, or Amendola either.

    Kaepernick refuses to stand during National Anthem

    Although I agree with you booth, I wasn't able to send my children to private schools past elementary age. I have 5 children and if I couldn't send them all, I wouldn't send any of them. We are Christian and I taught my children from an early age about all the crap they would be taught in public...

    Scott Podsednik

    Don Wassall said "We had four Podsednik threads going back in 2005 and 2006": Thanks Don. I searched for him in the baseball thread, but nothing turned up. I thought there might have been talk about him.

    Scott Podsednik

    We've been discussing Mike Trout and Trea Turner and stolen bases somewhat here on the baseball forum and just wanted to mention Scott Podsednik. Does anyone remember him? Podsednik had what I would call a brief career in Major League Baseball. Podsednik was drafted out of high school and had...

    2016 College Football Week 2

    I posted this on college football stars also, but in case you didn't know. UTC's Derek Craine 108 yards/7 carries, 15.4/carry in the first half. At 5'10 205, they may say he's too small for the NFL. I'm sure they'll find some excuse!

    Trea Turner

    Turner hits 2 HR's last night, giving him 8 in 52 games. He also has 77 hits/21 steals which projects to an astounding 240 hits and 64 steals over a 162 game schedule. It will be interesting to see what he does over a full season!

    2016 MLB Season

    PhillisFan said, "Trout's BA is now 5th in the league. You're right, on a better team Trout would have more RBI's and overall better stats." Trout has also batted 1st, 2nd and 3rd for most of his career, which hurts RBI total somewhat. Pujols,(110) is the guy benefiting from Mike Trout with...

    TV - Television Series Reviews / Discussion

    Pretty good thread. I'm one of those watching less and less TV, because of the what you have described and what we all know about modern shows. I'm one of the older men here and I prefer to watch 50's, 60's, and some 70's shows. However, as you've said if there is some decent new movies or...

    2016 MLB Season

    Tuesday night Rizzo was 2-4 with HR's number 27 and 28. Wednesday night Rizzo 2-4 again with HR number 29. He's seems to be having a good September. Bryant will be the NL MVP! However, with Donaldson,(TOR), slumping just a little, and Trout who should be the AL MVP on a terrible team, the MVP...

    Trea Turner

    I remember seeing a youtube video I believe of Mike Trout, Cincinnati's Hamilton another wiry black player stealing second and comparing their times. Trout was just barely slower than Hamilton, but what the commentator's failed to mention was that Hamilton is about 160 lbs., while Trout is 235...
