Colts-2007

[Colonel_Reb]

The Colts will have 24 whites on their 53 man roster, which seems to be the highest number of whites an NFL team can have in the current Caste era. Although WR John Standeford was just cut, Anthony Gonzalez should get a chance to make an impact this year.

The question I have is, since we know the coaches and many players know what the racial make-up of teams are, what will it take to see a majority white roster again? If a few of the whiter teams had kept all the whites they cut last weekend, we would have at least 2 or 3 majority white teams this year.

Even though the Colts are the whitest NFL team, I will still just root for my favorite white players to succeed until the double standard and discrimination against whites is gone from the league. Edited by: Colonel_Reb

I don't think that if a team had a slightly majority white roster the media would pick up on it unless certain individuals or organizations would start whining. Very few sports reporters are that knowledgeable or tuned in to the exact racial breakdown of every team. But the NFL is aware, and so are many black players, black organizations, white Cultural Marxistsubversives and "overseers". . . and us, the organization for white athletes whether they realize it or appreciate it or not.It seems to be a self-imposed barrier that no coach or franchise will go over.


I believe the NFL should be about 80 percent or more white based on objective factors and the incredibly large pool of talented white high school players to draw from to develop in I-A college ball. But there's no question that the majority white roster is a huge hurdle to be overcome and one we can take great satisfaction in when it happens.

I was just thinking of something regarding the Colts WRs. I am wondering if Roy Hall was kept in place of Standeford b/c he is probably good friends with Anthony Gonzalez considering they both went to OSU. I couldn't see Dungy cutting a guy who has a great college resume and talent like Standeford for a project like Hall unless he thought it would really benefit team chemistry. The Colts don't need a speedy project like Hall with all the talent they currently have unless they are looking far down the road. Maybe they think Hall will be a supporter to whitey Gonzalez.

Aaron Moorehead should have been cut though if that was the case. However, I think he had an even longer tenure on the team than Standeford and he caught some passes last year. I still don't know why the Colts would think Moorehead deserved a roster spot more than Standeford unless Moorehead was much more popular with the blacks on the team than a whitey WR like Standeford. White WRs are anomalies in the NFL and aren't respected by most black players IMO.Edited by: ToughJ.Riggins

Moorehead is OK in my books. Along with Eric Parker he's the whitest Black in the NFL.

lol... what about Nick Goings and Will Demps?

Never heard of 'em.

rotoworld reports:

Colts released TE Bryan Fletcher.

Another unanticipated move, and one Peyton Manning probably won't approve of. Fletcher was a consistent performer for the Colts, catching 18 passes in each of the past three years as a No. 3 tight end. GM Bill Polian apparently feels comfortable with Jacob Tamme and Tom Santi behind Dallas Clark

one black skill player less!

 

[Don Wassall]

Now if they'd only ditch Aaron Morehead and/or Roy Hall and give a real wide receiver or two a chance. Morehead is slow and has questionable hands; Hall had a lackluster career at Ohio State and is still "raw." It's probably too late now for John Standeford, but there's plenty of NFL caliber white receivers who would more than fit the bill.

 

[GiovaniMarcon]

I just hope the Colts don't fall into the "fatboy lineman" trap and surround Manning with a herd of slow, huffy-puffy hippos and go Hollywood on us.

 

[referendum]

Very good news about Fletcher being released as I was worried that with Utecht going to the Bengals Fletcher could have been number two behind Clark. Now, it looks like all white back-ups for Clark, and maybe Utecht gets more field time in Cincinatti.

 

[Angelcynn]

Maybe Dallas Clark can get his first 1000 yard season? He's certainly capable of it especially with Peyton throwing to him.

Luke Lawton is traded to the Eagles, never to be heard from again.
<H1>Colts trade running back Lawton to Philadelphia for draft pick</H1>
2 hours ago


INDIANAPOLIS â€â€￾ Colts reserve running back Luke Lawton was traded to the Philadelphia Eagles for a conditional 2009 draft choice.


Lawton played in 11 games last season at running back and special teams. He had five rushes for 13 yards and four receptions for 29 yards, including a one-yard scoring reception against Jacksonville on Dec. 2 for his lone career touchdown.


Lawton spent part of the 2006 season on the Colts' practice squad. He played for the New York Jets in 2005.


The Colts have shored up the running back position this off-season, making Lawton expendable.


They drafted Mike Hart from Michigan and got Dominic Rhodes back on the squad. Rhodes spent a season in Oakland after playing his first six NFL seasons with the Colts, culminating in a 113-yard rushing performance in Indianapolis' Super Bowl victory over Chicago.

He's currently a toss-up to make the roster as a FB. There is a rumor circulating that he can long snap, which would greatly help his chances. Anyone know if that's true or not?

 

[Realistic]

I've watched Jacob Tamme during his career at both Boyle County High in Danville, KY and at UK. He's a quality individual as well as an excellent football player. I have NEVER heard anything but praise regarding the young man's character and behavior on and off the field. I hope the Colts give him a chance.

Quinn Pitcock is retiring after just one season.

He had 30 tackles as a rookie in limited play, which is an excellent total for a part-time tackle. Now there's one fewer white player at a ridiculously caste position.

[guest301]

I wish that article specifically said why he was retiring and what other opportunities he was going to pursue. I guess Pitcock was not that forthcoming with a answer. There are probably some underlying personal issues here. It's a disappointment to see him go but maybe he will do a Favre and come back.

 

[whiteknight]

i think the hall of game proved that the colts are white friendly the amount of white player that played the 2nd half was amazing (i know they are back ups but they are getting a shot)

saw white Db's all over the feild white DE's

lets hope some of them make the roster and push for starter spots

 

[jared]

I didn't even see the WR from Sherbrooke on the field. Did Giguere get hurt or cut already?

 

[lumsdenpower]

he is gonna be the kick returner, punt returner starter next game

 

[Don Wassall]

Second year safety Brannon Condren is looking good. But they already have Matt Giordano and Jamie Silva. Silva may be the odd man out.


Bob Sanders was the AFC defensive player of the year last season, but he is quite injury prone. Condren or Giordano may play a lot in '08 if Sanders can't stay healthy.

[celticdb15]

Well at least we will know Silva had a shot at making the team and the reason he was cut was because there were better guys ahead of him. No race card is to be played here Giordano and Condren havegotten fair shots.
