Very true Backrow. One only has to look at Ansah from BYU - he is even more inexperienced as a player and less athletic then Hunt yet the NFL and DWFandom are both hyping him up. It is a perfect illustration of the double standard that exists.
As I've noted before, I don't follow college sports much, but this is about the time of the year when I start to read up about the draft, because I do follow the NFL quite close. Anyhow, I was absolutely shocked to see that Ansah has a grand total of 4.5 career sacks in his 3 seasons at BYU. Yet Todd McGoy of ESPN is talking about him going #1 overall?
Can you imagine a white "goy" with 4.5 career sacks being drafted before the third round, let alone being talked about as a top 5 pick?
Also, it must be noted that Ansah, who is now a Mormon (converted) is already 24 (at least). He lied once to scouts about his age -- claimed he was born in 1990, now changed it to 1989...Who's to say he's not even older that? In photos, he looks like he's well over 30?
Another quick note: I believe Mike Mamula -- the man DWF's dubbed the "ultimate workout warrior" -- had 29 sacks in his final 2 seasons at Boston College**. So much for all the 20-something Jewish internet writers (or bloggers), who are too young to remember the 90's, saying he was just a "Combine Wonder" and did little else to warrant being a 1st round pick? Had Mamula been used properly in the NFL (as a 3-4 OLB), he could've had a much better, longer career. As it was, he did put up decent numbers, when healthy.

As far as Greg Cosell is concerned, why is he even qualified to be taken seriously as an NFL talent scout by Weenie World? I believe we discussed him here last spring. Turns out he was a like D-III walk-on (scrub) basketball player. He's best known for being the Nephew of Jewish broadcasting icon Howard Cosell.
