"The Chiefs will travel to play the Colts. The Colts have regressed in terms of their fairness to white players, but Luck, Fleener, and Whalen make them far more palatable than the Chiefs (who even started a 5/5 black OL during various games this season)." Actually, they both start 5 whites and play a few white subs.

Speaking of the Saints, how in the world did two members of their sorry offensive line make the probowl??? Evans and Grubbs, both black of course, have played like complete garbage in both pass protection and the run game. Honestly, the Saints haven't had even a slightly respectable run game since Deuce McAllister retired, but somehow, both guards manage to make the probowl...

Manning is the unquestioned leader of the Broncos. The Broncos winning it all is far from the worst thing that could happen.
and this is why football is followed more than basketball despite the lack of White players at certain positions. As long as there are White qbs people will watch, including us, because the qb is the leader of the team, or supposed to be. Which is probably why everyone was up in arms about the temporary illusion of success for black quarterbacks last year with the read option.

If the NFL succeeded at making quarterback a black position, viewership would decline like the NBA. I think even dwfs need at least one White guy to relate to, maybe I'm wrong though, but many people don't like Scam, Vick etc.

no clue, especially Grubbs, the weakest link on the line. Evans is a known name. I guess people see the Saints doing well and figure it must be the line, they don't see Brees moving around the pocket trying to avoid pressure. The White center and White right tackle are blamed, when guard it is easier to hide deficiencies, the tackle and center can make up for some of them. Deuce had a lot more talent than the group they have, but yeah the run blocking hasn't been great either, it doesn't help that Mark Ingram can't cut without gearing down and getting tackled, but even Pierre Thomas isn't doing well, and he has been a solid all around back.

Did anyone catch Leonard Leap he put on the overrated safety Malcolm Jenkins? Looked like the bucs had a shot there for a second.

Yep, awesome play, and if I'm not mistaking, that was the last time he touched the ball... Leonard matched the production of Bobby Rainey in half the carries BTW...

Leonard: 5 for 35yds
Rainey: 11 for 35yds

"Manning is the unquestioned leader of the Broncos. The Broncos winning it all is far from the worst thing that could happen." Maybe, but if they play another team with only 4-5 white starters we will be looking at another 80% black Super Bowl (like last year). Even the NBA finals have been (slightly) better than that the last few years.

Uncle Chris has picked out his whipping boy for tonight and it's Jeff Heath. After Chris Conte's tough game today, we really don't need another white safety to take all the blame for a lousy defense.

Is the team with the best quarterback in league history, along with two awesome White starting wide receivers, interchangeable with any team that has the same number of White starters, no matter what position they play? To me there is a huge difference; simply counting White starters without putting it in context is only part of the bigger picture.

No, but I think numbers do count. Again, if it is an 80% game black people all across the world will naturally conclude that blacks are just better athletes. Why wouldn't they?

Was watching NFL highlights. Sanders correctly stated that all credit should be given to Rodgers, rather than blaming the DB. Rodgers started to scramble or run, Conte bit on it. Rodgers scrambling and running ability made it possible for winning TD. Thank God, Conte had a interception in the in zone to even things out. But "da bears" DWFs of all DWFs won't see that.

DWFs on BSPN are already laying into Conte.

Who cares what blacks think?

Bottom line for many people is that, consciously or subconsciously, they know that White people will always play "the bigger man" and accept blame or responsibility for the sake of teamwork, while Black people will almost invariably act like spoiled, rotten children whenever they are called on for their BS or ineptitude.

Hence, the sensible, mature White vessel becomes the default container for people's frustrations they WISH they could vent upon Blacks, but they know Black people will actually stand up for themselves justly or unjustly, while White people tend to just turn the other cheek in non life-or-death situations.

Therefore, Conte is blamed, Heath is blamed, etc.

When a White succeeds, which is often, he will almost without question "spread the wealth" of credit. Very rarely do you see a White athlete pat himself on the back.

Uncle Al, referring to players fighting hard today to the end of games in Week 17, "insane." Right, because they only make hundreds of thousand of dollars per game. How "insane" it must be to try hard for a few hours on 16 days out of 365 per year while making millions of fiat dollars along with worshipful media coverage.

Celek with a great catch then a TD run. Celek is emerging as a go to receiver for Foles and the Eagles. 17 to 7 Eagles.

Hope it is really cold in Philly and Green Bay next week. New Orleans and SF are warm weather teams.

My oh my.........the Eagles are almost as fun to watch as the Patriots. Brent Celek with the TD. Meanwhile, Chrissy Collingswortless continues to beat up on Jason Witten for 'dropping' a ball behind him that gets intercepted. Collinsworthless must be President of the "White self-loathers club"

Witten was the key receiver on that drive that made it a one-score game for Dallas.

the same reason why he doesn't understand the concept or mismanagement of fiat dollars. he believes that Amerika has endless reserves of cash and that minorities are discriminated against and they deserve more hand outs. He believes blacks are grown up children, who only know the most basic of concepts like "hey playas, its like da playoffs, we gots to ball extra hard to day. Cause if we don't, then we gets to go home. I wants my ring. The other games were games, dis is like a playoff game. feeling me homie?"

Cole Beasley sighting at the end of the first half. Hope he sees some action in the second.
