Ed McCaffrey's wife Lisa, is the daughter of Fifties sprinter David Sime. I looked in SI Vault and found an article from November 30, 1998 titled "White Lightning." The writer, Michael Silver, calls McCaffrey a "goofy looking white guy," and it goes from there. Lisa is quoted as saying...

A couple of days ago, the NFL Network showed Super Bowl XIII in its Classic Games series. This consists of the NFL Films with voice-over from the radio broadcasts. With the score 35-24 with over 2 minutes left, the Cowboys tried an onside kick. It went straight to a Steeler reserve DB named...

It is surprising that the Eagles would trade McNabb to a division rival whom they play twice a year. The Eagles may well believe McNabb is over the hill.

The DWFs say what Woods does in private is none of their business.

The running back who dropped the first pass of the drive was Lenvill Elliot, a journeyman in his 9th and last year in the NFL, most of which with Cincinnati. Ironically, Elliott was supposed to be a good receiver whom Bill Walsh remembered from when he was a Bengal assistant. Elliott did do a...

Today I was talking with two cousins about the game. Both expressed surprise at "how many white boys where playing."

Even Vanity Fair had an article about the black takeover of the QB position.

And why didn't the all-powerful forces that script and/or fix major games prevent a Duke-Butler final?

An ex-friend of mine is a college professor who sees white racism everywhere. I once told him that no other race but white people favors other races over themselves. I asked him what other race gives preferences to a minority in their own country. He had no answer as he had never thought of it...

44% is about as low in the polls as Obama will go. His unanimous black support along with a heavy majority among nonwhites in general will keep him from sinking as low as George W. Bush did. You can add the yuppie liberals and total media support. He might drop close to 40%. Still, if he is...

It's the exact same thing at the University of Tennessee. The difference is that football is Number 1 at Tennessee. The "everything's OK as long as we're winning" syndrome has been entrenched for decades at Tennessee now. The off-field bad behavior bothers the fans very little.

Do the members think the DWFs really would prefer white athletes?

The Big Orange fans took it pretty hard!

Teams from my home state university sure aren't very popular around here!

The NFL Network is showing Super Bowl XIII tonight (Saturday) at 8 PM ET. I believe it is the original NBC broadcast. The Steelers play the Cowboys. At that time, each team had won two Super Bowls.

I just saw this discussed on HLN. They said it was "only a few," and most of the "youths" meant no harm. They "wondered where the parents are."

This episode confirms what I already know. The Duke Lacrosse players were innocent, but was it a good idea to invite two black women into their house? Something may be technically legal but bring big trouble. It's a good thing Roethlisberger has the Super Bowl checks. He's going to need them for...

If there's no DNA, there's no case. The legal mess will probably fizzle out but has Roethlisberger learned anything from this episode?

An example of this is the Los Angeles County DA's office. The majority of its prosecutors have been women for a few years now. This office has been criticized for losing the "big ones" for a long time. These losses were almost always by female prosecutors. What do they do? They load up with...

NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell said today that he will sooon meet with Ben Roethlisberger concerning the sexual assault allegations.

There were 3 occasions back in the 1960's that I recall where a team traded for a backup QB and made him a starter, none of which worked. The Saints and Broncos in 1967 traded several draft choices for Gary Cuozzo and Steve Tensi respectively. Cuozzo was beated out in NO by Billy Kilmer and...

Funny thing. I've been observing sports for some 50 years now. I can't recall offhand seeing a big-name white athlete crying as Tebow did after the loss to Alabama. I have seen black athletes do it.

The problem with the Warren Report was lack of complete information at the time. They didn't know of the Kennedy administration plots to kill Castro. This gave Castro a motive to kill JFK or it may have made anti-Castro Cubans upset with JFK for failing to kill Castro. Jack Ruby's murder of...

If the U.S. government had perpetrated 9/11 it wouldn't have worked so well. Is this another one of those conspiracies that would have involved thousands of people, none of whom talk for money or betray their masters? The left-wing media would have LOVED uncovering a plot by the Bush...

How much production did Jim Brown and Gale Sayers have without the ball? I don't recall ever hearing the term, "production without the ball," before in discussing a running back. I'm pretty sure I didn't in the 1960s and 70s.
