That article disgested me to the point that I might become a McNabb fan. Athletes are going to lose mobility as they age and as injuries pile up. McNabb isn't being an "Uncle Tom" by changing his style he's adjusting to reality. Something I'd like see a lot more of in this world.

The best type of quarterback is a multi-dimensional composite who can adjust to defences faster than defences can adjust to him. To hell with this "white pocket passer" "black scrambler" CRAP! Learn to do both and don't let the effing media push you into some kind of a box based on the...

Why are the only sportswriters who will critize Vick Black? This has always baffled me. There is nothing unique about him, hell half the QB's in the CFL have the exact same skill set.Edited by: Ta Waki Mumba

I've noticed that most "African-American" Hockey players are actually Canadian-born children of immigrants usually from the Carribean that grew up in Toronto. So much for American diversity... Now will the media please cover the actual players on the ice instead of wondering Hockey would be like...

George. The defenceman was Steve Smith and the goaltender was Grant Fehr (I think)

I think that's almost exactly what would happen. Not just for Irvin either. Let's just say ESPN had best not raise the issue.

In Canadian Football any player can punt at any time (even accidently) Any player on the kicking team that is onside (behind the kicker at the time of the kick,)can recover. The kicker can also recover their own kick. Still desperation Quick Kicks like that are rare enough that you maybe see...

Make no mistake I like Robert Edwards. Coming back to pro football after what for 99% of pro athletes would have been a career-ending injury shows nothing but balls... and two big brass ones at that. Hell the doctors didn't even think he was going to walk again!

Just a heads up people. Montreal native RB Eric Lapointe will start in this Sunday's Grey Cup (CFL Championship) for his Hometown Alouettes after coming off a big game in the Eastern conference finals where he had 100+ yards and 3 TD's despite playing mainly in the second half. Lapointe...

A funny well timed touchdown dance is part of the rituals of football. ----> Just try not to make an ass of yourself! <----

An Olympic quality female athlete (and NOTHING less) could play men's football at a decent level but would be limited to only a handful of positions. Kicker being the obvious one but that's been done and doesn't really count . I could see a small sprinting WR having success... actually that...

No. I should have thought to mention that. On a side note both Ranek and Joseph were on a sports talk show last year and the subject of race came up. Both players showed clear knowledge (and disgust) of the caste system and IIRC Joseph went so far as say that the only reason Josh Ranek was...

I don't know... damn it's hard to find single game CFL stats I believe Ranek had about 70 yards rushing in that game and went over the thousand yard mark for the season. This is the second time they've started against each other. So the official score is Ranek 1, Lumsden 1 Couple...

Looks like I spoke too soon Hamilton takes it and Jesse Lumsden is the difference with 180 Yards from scrimmidge and a TD. He also wins the games 'Glenn's Gladiator' award. Very impressive game. Damn I wish I hadn't fallen asleep in the 3rd quarter (missed the TD)

Game is on! Lumsden just got a 40+ yard rush to the 4 which led to a Brock Ralph TD. I still think the smart money is on Ottawa though.

You know I really can't think of a better way to put it.

Of course I live an igloo, it keeps my beer cold! But in order to break the caste system we must first stop it from spreading. God knows Canada is full of spineless wannabe-Americans (cough-cough... Toronto) who blindly worship all things NFL, NBA and NCAA. A small victory is still a victory...

Hamilton plays Ottawa again this week so we'll get the chance to see the wonderful sight of two white tailbacks starting against each other. Ahh... nothing kicks the caste system in the nuts like the sight of a black QB handing off the ball to a white RB play after play

It's official Lumsden is now the starter... (Edit first Link didn't work) http://www.ticats.ca/modules.php?op=modload&name=News&file=a rticle&sid=5198&mode=thread&order=0&thold=0 To make the trade even more interesting for the Caste Football crowd. WR Brock Ralph was sent to Hamilton...

I'm going to say Conservative-Liberarian.

Sports ARE more important in "black culture" as opposed to "white culture" so the number of blacks would be higher than the population ratio. My WAG would be about 20-25% Black, and about 65-70% White with good (and very entertaining) mix at all positions.

Nice article here http://slam.canoe.ca/Slam/Football/CFL/News/2005/09/18/12226 47-cp.html
