I'm hearing the 'high motor' tag put on a lot of these black picks. Perhaps the plethora of fat & lazy sumo linemen has forced the media to defend these affeletes before they even get on an NFL field.
Congrats to Adam Scott! Super exciting golf. Golf really doesn't need Tiger as much as the media keeps saying. Give the public a chance to get to know some other golfers instead of relentlessly focusing on Tiger and golf will be even better.
I wonder if the media will mention Scott's room...
I mentioned the avatar situation to Don when we got the new and 'improved' website format and he said it was just the limitations of the new site. I do miss my animated bear!
This site is a great site. It really is one of a kind. The problem for me is the feeling that we are all like a hamster running on its wheel. The hamster loves his wheel but he just isn't going anywhere. Well, neither are we here at Castefootball. I agree with Don that this site has helped...
That famous picture of the iron workers having lunch on the steel beam is circa 1932 and was taken on the Rockefeller building, which is now the GE building. I have it on the wall in my den. There is controversy over who the actual photographer was but my money is on Charles C. Ebbets.
Saw Bill Polian on PTI the other day and he said that the combine is worth 10% when they evaluate players. Polian seems like an intelligent guy who tells it like it is. So this is a lot of hoopla over 10%. I forget his complete breakdown of how players were judged but game film made up most of...
As the posts wind down on this thread I want to say how proud I am of all those who posted on this thread. The Ravens are the blackest team in the NFL. Not by numbers of players but by the presence of their team leaders. The black community was overwhelmingly in favor of a Ravens victory so Ray...
I have a feeling that Murray has been bulking up recently. Perhaps not just with weights. I watched the whole match against Federer and Andy not only looked more strapping than he did at last year's Aussie Open but he was blistering the ball past Federer in a way I have not seen before. His game...
When I listened to Brent he sounded a little more excited than he should have. Brent, you're 73, not 13. ESPN needed someone there to say down boy, down. Not way over the top, but enough.
This might be the most black QB's to play on one weekend in NFL history. Joe Flacco was just pulled for some black replacement so that makes 9 teams with a black QB. The Ravens not starting theirs.
Most are lousy, all will be praised.
I always thought that a team had to sellout a game to avoid a blackout but I just read this on the Raiders site:
'Sunday’s game between the Raiders and Kansas City Chiefs will be televised locally, a Raiders spokesman said.
The Raiders on Thursday were granted a one-day extension in an effort...
The bottom line is that I saw something that didn't look on the up and up. And I was not the only one who saw it. I have no doubt that scanning the NFL forums would bring many other comments about this from people who saw the same thing. And while other posters can question me for seeing it I...
Couldn't agree more. The last five minutes of this game is a classic example of why the integrity of the NFL should be in question.
I don't support the 'every play is scripted' accusation but how often must I see this blatant manipulation of a game and still be told I am crazy for questioning...
I saw something during the Texans game that nobody seems to have mentioned. J.J. Watt, the Texans best defensive player, was being chewed out on the sidelines for some reason or other. The same type of sideline chewing out was shown last year between Brady and a coach.
I never see a black stud...
Well, I for one like Bigunreal's posts. For two reasons, the first one being that I agree to a degree that the NFL is fixed. Not fixed in the normal sense, but fixed in the way white skill position players are handled. You can call it the status quo of the NFL or just say that there is no...
Congrats to Andrew Luck on taking the rookie record for passing yards in a game away from Scam Newton. It wouldn't surprise me at all to see Luck rewrite this record before the season is over.
I hope he gets the season record for passing yards as well.
When I first read Don's initial post, I mistakenly thought he wanted to start a radio station. Not sure how I drew that conclusion but now that I see he is talking about just a radio program I am all for it and will gladly chip in to help make it happen.
Jaxvid, Dixie, this site is fine the...
I love this site. Sadly, I have been an absentee poster the last couple of years because I had to switch jobs and am now working the night shift. The new schedule leaves little time or energy for too many things that I did when working day shift.
That said, I still completely believe in...
Here's a few cool shows that promote white men and white values.
Shows to check out:
Burn Notice - White stars, white enemies, white, white & more white. USA Network
Suits - A stud lawyer and his gifted protege are the stars. The head of the law firm is a black woman but the star of the...
In case anyone missed Sunday Night Baseball last night, it was the Rangers vs Angels and Mike Trout was the main feature.
ESPN went above and beyond in making Trout the focus of the Angels and the game. We would expect this with a black athlete but Trout got talked about relentlessly the whole...
Clemens has the same problem as most of the juicers. While technically there is no evidence that he juiced, he easily fails the eye test. By that I mean one only needs to look at his numbers to see the problem. Until steroids, every single star who played the game saw his talent and his numbers...
The extended beating Rodney got helped usher in the taser, which cops are abusing worse than they ever abused the nightstick. At least cops wouldn't take their nightstick to a six year old or 80 year old back in the day.
The funny thing about these kind of decisions is the notion that the judges are somehow looking for things that the fans aren't. What was it the one judge said, "Pacquiao missed a lot of punches". So what! How does that help Bradley win?
The truth is that you could put a five year old kid at...
Before this series gets underway I just want to predict that this is going to be one of the worst played Finals in history. Don't expect to see any team concepts from these two teams as the NBA wants its stars to be on display and anyone who attempts to play defense will be in foul trouble by...
