    2017 NFL Draft

    Nothing like getting and playing a white wide receiver to turn me, at least speaking for myself, into a fan of a team I can't stand otherwise but Austin Gayle from Raiders Wire makes a great case for Ryan Switzer as their slot man of the future. They need one and I think he fits their system...

    Doug Adler suing ESPN after being fired for using the word "guerrilla"

    There is more. If someone can link up Chris Beck's article found on splice today much appreciated. Shockingly the Adler comment went viral when a New York Times tennis writer Ben Rothenberg claimed Adler was being racist by saying "gorilla". Then after the internet hanging mob grew momentum...

    Doug Adler suing ESPN after being fired for using the word "guerrilla"

    I was unaware of this story but one has to travel outside reality to suggest that Adler used the word Gorilla when describing Venus Williams. He in fact was saying "guerilla effect" which of course is not offensive. ESPN caved into twitter trolls and since the firing and being wrongfully branded...

    2017 NFL Draft

    Celtic I think the difference between the fastest times run by blacks at these combines is way more than slightly better than the whites. I can only think of three white wide receivers who ran 4.3 40 yard dashes in the last 12 years. Devon Wylie, Ryan Swope and back in 2005 Matt Jones. Jeff...

    2016-2017 season

    Here is a stat line you don't see like ever. Katie Lou Samuelson went 10 for 10 from three point land on her way to 40 points in the AAC title game. She got to 40 with only 4 made free throws and 12 of 14 shooting. Throw in 5 assists and a couple of steals. And she sat out a quarter plus! I am...

    2017 NFL Draft

    I think these occasional black outbursts are too sporadic to amount to much of anything that lingers. Only Chris Carter, who comes across as thoughtful, has been somewhat consistent over the past year or two in pointing out stereotypes. He was once a constant presence on the Mike and Mike show...

    2017 NFL Draft

    A few parting shots from another caste reinforcing combine. These NFL combines only reinforce the "black superiority" caste theme and it does not help that we had so few skill athletes, as usual, and none of them came close to running a 4.3 40 yard dash. Sure I know shuttle times etc. are...

    2017 NFL Draft

    Good points Van and Switzer is physically more gifted than Welker.

    2017 NFL Draft

    I am glad you are a Switzer believer. This should not be shocking news to us but it is not a slam dunk he gets drafted which would ruin the entire draft for me. Edelman has been the premiere slot receiver the past four years so if Ryan gets anywhere near that level I will be satisfied. Julian is...

    2017 NFL Draft

    Even though I have never seen Hendrickson play he is shooting up draft boards. A fast DE who according to scouts should have been playing at a major school. I have seen Anzalone several times at Florida and liked the way he moved in space this past season. His biggest issue is injuries. Lets...

    2017 NFL Draft

    Saturday was mostly excruciating if you ask me. When a black player like Ross burns rubber it just adds another building block to the caste world. Hope the guys tears his knee up because I don't want to hear stuff crammed down our throats every time the guy takes the field. I had mentioned...

    2017 NFL Draft

    The bench press and even the vertical leap are meaningless for running backs lets get real here. The vertical can come into play for wide receivers though. That said even though Fournette can't jump to me the problem is he is too heavy and could get fat. The early buzz coming out of day one is...

    2017 NFL Draft

    OK day one and all eyes here are on gee I wonder who? The second run where CM ran a 4.59 is mainly incidental. Luke Kuechly had a slow second run. Why they run twice is a mystery to me. Mental stuff starts creeping in and guys usually run a slower second. They don't run twice in track and field...

    2016-2017 NHL Season

    Terrific article on the Oiler's Connor McDavid in the latest Sports Illustrated (March 6th issue). He is managed by Bobby Orr's agency and they do a great job of tracing McDavid's hockey lineage with the all time greats so at just 20 his future looks boundless. The only downside is he wasn't...

    NFL News, Rumors and Musings

    Terrible to hear. DD were very informative and fair. I was always punching up their site. Along with Sports Illustrated reducing their number of issues I am getting very concerned that a mature balanced approach to sports could give way to caste mayhem. ESPN has some what I would call fair...

    "Blacks are fading from baseball"

    Don the incident between Fisk and Sanders took place in 1990 and is described beautifully in the Fisk biography called "Pudge" written by Doug Wilson. Sanders was a rookie for the Yankees plugged into the lineup not because he earned it but because he was an undeserving showpiece. I said it was...

    "Blacks are fading from baseball"

    Yep I went back and edited my post a few minutes after I posted but yes 1975 was the year Lynn won the MVP. For some reason I temporarily spaced out and kept thinking of 1977 but that was the one game playoff year with the Yankees. The Fisk battle with Sanders is written about in Fisk's...

    "Blacks are fading from baseball"

    Evans was initially overshadowed by Lynn and then of course Jim Rice and lacked their excitement. He was not the natural hitter that those two were but he became a real solid hitter during the course of a surprisingly long career. He was the afterthought to Lynn, Fisk and Rice. Evans was the...

    "Blacks are fading from baseball"

    A couple of more names who played CF from the late 70's plus early 80's. The Met's Lee Mazzilli and Rick Manning from Cleveland. I recognize the name Manning but do not remember him. Fred Lynn who was mentioned earlier had Joe DiMaggio qualities. He went to USC and was a wide receiver and then...

    Class of 2018

    Dolphin a quick update on Austin Schultz. Even though he is from Nebraska where football is a religion he has signed with Wichita State to play baseball as a SS most likely. A 6.5 60 yard dash is quite fast.

    2016-2017 season

    To follow up on what JL mentioned about future classes I might at some point go over the girls classes of 2018 and 2019 which at this point could land some McDonald's All Americans. The boys 2018 class looks dry at the top but it is possible Joey Hauser, a better prospect than his brother and...

    2016-2017 season

    Nothing like diversity the new catch word on so many people's lips. The boys and girls 2017 McDonald's All American game will feature 40 players. They are all black. No honkies. And do not expect any white players to be invited to the 2018 boys event either. Nothing like diversity or is that...

    2016-2017 season

    As so often happens to top flight high flying white athletes they get lost in the shuffle and never truly emerge on the national stage. Notre Dame's Rex Pfleuger is a perfect example of this common trend. Now a sophomore I figured he could emerge this year like Duke's Luke Kennard as someone...

    "Blacks are fading from baseball"

    Will this bs ever end? The new commissioner Rob Manfred just announced that he will see to it that black participation in the MLB will increase and will use various resources to achieve his goal. For sure Jackie Robinson is the most important American black sports pioneer and is universally...
