If Gerhart wins, anybody interested in making a movie with me? We'll call it "The Fast Lane" and it'll be about the trials and tribulations of a white man in a black man's world. It'll show how Toby Gerhart was the first white running back to win the heisman....in a very long time. Dennis Quaid...
I feel talking about discrimination against white athletes in the mainstream media is sort of like going to see a comedian who makes jokes about black people. I'm going to use an analogy here: The white people (white sports writers) in the crowd will look around to make sure the black people...
Leonhard is Strong Safety and Smith is replacing Rhodes at Free Safety, so yes, we can expect to be starting 2 white DB's! (Although with Leonhard's athleticism, he should be cornerback, but i'll take it)
I hate when white players get caught from behind. Floods of criticism comes in, he lacks a "2nd gear" and dumb stuff like that. Even the best players get caught from behind. Example, Adrian Peterson (of the vikings) was caught from behind by a detroit lions db who caused AP to fumble and cost...
its just amazing to me how well everyone here knows the things announcers will be saying, like its from a script. Why isn't peyton manning or drew brees ever described as "just winning"?
I feel like "Vince Young just wins" is code for "he's not good, but since he's the QB, we'll give him all...
Its just another way of saying "how much does the public like this person/company/whatever." Its more often mentioned in politics.
Ill try to give an example. During the 2008 presidential campaigns, there was lots of "Get out the vote" crap on mtv. As you can guess, MTV would be much more...
I dont think its as much about Young being better than Collins, but the fact that Collins is 36 years old and was just a stop-gap solution. everyone knows Collins is better than Young, the titans want to see if there is a future with Young (which anyone with eyes can see that there isnt...
they seem pretty set on using Danny, we'll find out sunday I suppose. It should be a pretty good cast breaking game, Jets have Danny with Leonhard and Smith as DB's and Dolphins have Hartline, Camarillo, and Fasano.
Matt Jones
-July 10, 2008 in Fayetteville, Arkansas, Jones was arrested at gunpoint and charged with felony possession of a controlled substance
-March 9, 2009 in Washington County, Jones was arrested again after failing a drug test which showed that he had alcohol in his system. This...
I found this article after looking up Jim Leonhard today http://blogs.buffalobills.com/2009/10/14/ryan-raves-about-jim-leonhard/
This is the last paragraph, pretty amazing what Rex went through just to get Leonhard
"Of course, we had Ed Reed and Duwan Landry, so we were set at our...
I dont mind mixed marriages. Its not my place to decide who you should marry. I just dont like the media portrayal of how the only interracial mixing is with a white girl and black guy. I wish i could give evidence to back that up but racial mixing isnt as big of a deal to me so i dont feel like...
good job steve gregory. its very rare a white db isnt the one blamed for secondary problems whether he is really the problem or not. Steve Gregory has obviously proven himself to the Chargers.
these are good things to be called, theres no doubt about that. I too would like to be credited for hard work ethic. However, many people at this site have noticed, over time, that these descriptions are given to white athletes (almost exclusively) again and again. Hearing these sort of...
wow, that guy did so many things for those student-athletes and for the team and to get kicked out like that is a disgrace and definitately takes a notch out of that school's credibility. Then again its a school in Atlanta, the same city that showed unwavering support to Vick before going to...
its amazing he was picked up at all in 2005, being a DII player with an injury for a year and having only 2 real years of play...Belichik has a knack for picking up diamonds in the rough.
