I think Janis is pretty much screwed at this point. What he's being put through is worse than a racial apprenticeship. With a racial apprenticeship the White player is very slowly brought along and gets a bit more playing time each season until he's finally allowed to start. Janis has been firmly placed in the doghouse and will likely be cut next season and will either end up as another team's benchwarmer or will be out of the league altogether. Unfortunately that scenario happens a lot more often than the prolonged racial apprenticeship.
I despise blacks playing the qb position more than anything else in sports and I don't find much solace when I see a small spike in white WRs when compared to the systemic push to eliminate white qbs - it pisses me off to no end.
The reality is black QBs have to be half as giid and white non qbs have to be twice as good. Totally backwards.Stephen A. Smiff is going for the Big Lie strategy. The idea that black quarterbacks have to be "twice as good" as whitey to get the same level of respect is beyond ridiculous (try maybe one-third as good), but Smiff is an approved talking head with a high melanin content on a big cable network. He must be hoping that people will think, "Wow, I should definitely trust him then!"

I couldn't stand Porter when he played for the Steelers. Big obnoxious loudmouth, but the Pittsburgh media loved him and always went to him first for quotes. It was sickening. He routinely got in fights on the field, even before games, and while I can't remember all his off-field troubles, I do remember him getting shot in the ass one offseason in Colorado.
Riggins44 is right, if he was White he'd be recognized as a sociopath; but he's black and so his career trajectory goes from obnoxious troublemaker to. . . respected coach. During the thug-a-thon that passed for the Steelers-Bengals playoff game last year, "Coach" Porter illegally went on the field near the end of the game to push and shove players when Vontaze Burfict and Pacman Jones were leading Cincy's self-destruction and giveaway of the game, feeling right in his element. His black privilege will ensure that this latest incident is swiftly swept under the rug and forgotten by the team and the media.
Jordy is officially ruled out for this week's game. Hopefully it means the Packers might be desperate enough to use Janis
That's just wonderful, this is the same guy who ran a 4.7 40. Talk about black privilegeNot gonna happen. Geronimo has already been annointed as the savior. Now, if a couple of other WRs get hurt, like last year's AZ game, then Janis may be forced into action and have a 150 yard game with 2 TDs.
Just to wrap up on Joey Porter, he had a felony charge of aggravated assault against a police officer, and charges of simple assault, trespassing, and resisting arrest all dropped by the DA and is now only charged with two summary offenses: public drunkenness and disorderly conduct. "Justice" doesn't work any faster in the most corrupt third world countries.
But black privilege doesn't exist
