Racist Propaganda from ESPN

[Don Wassall]

Here's classic Caste System propaganda from Todd McShay of ESPN's so-called Scouts Inc. in a piece rating the top 20 running backs for 2008. Four of the 20 running backs are white-Owen Schmitt, Peyton Hillis, Jacob Hester,and Doug Jones --and all of course are listed as "fullbacks," a position that for all intents and purposes doesn't even exist anymore in the NFL as a running position, whilethe other 16 running backs are black and all arelisted as running backs (halfbacks).


Then we find paragraphs like this beauty: "Fullback prospects with the exceptional skills and versatility of Brian Leonard, selected in the second round by the Rams last April, come around once or twice per decade and the 2008 crop won't reverse that trend. Owen Schmitt and Peyton Hillis are future NFL contributors, however. Schmitt possesses a rare blend of size, speed and hands, much like current Saints FB Mike Karney. Hillis is a bit undersized but gets the most out of his physical ability as a runner, blocker and receiver as well as on kick coverage."


Let's quickly translate this racist garbage: While Brian Leonard may eventually take on a Mike Alstott role and actually be allowed to run the ball now and then, he is a "once in a decade" player who "won't reverse the trend" of whites not being allowed to run the ball for the past 25 years. Owen Schmitt possess a "rare blend of size, speed and hands" but will be only a blocker and special teamer like Mike Karney. The huge Peyton Hillis is "undersized" for his future role of humanoid blocking machine.


Reality: Hillis, Schmidt and Hester -- I don't know anything about Doug Jones of Cincinnati -- are each capable of being dominating featured running backs in the NFL, but none will be given a chance because they're white. Such blatant, in your face racism, but hey we're the racists for pointing it out. Here's the article:
<H1 ="storyTitle">Michigan's Hart, OU's Patrick top running back prospects for '08 draft</H1>


The 2008 senior class took a hit at running back when eventual first-rounders Adrian Peterson (Vikings) and Marshawn Lynch (Bills) defected early. Michigan's Mike Hart is the best senior prospect entering the 2007 season but size and durability issues could easily keep him out of the first round.


Allen Patrick, Tashard Choice, Yvenson Bernard, Dantrell Savage, Ryan Torain, Justin Forsett and Rafael Little will all be competing for what is usually a limited number of running back spots on Day 1 (an average of 8.4 over the last three years). Patrick, Savage, and Forsett have shown flashes but each must rise to the challenge and carry the load for their respective teams this fall. Choice, Bernard and Torain are bigger, more bruising runners but need to show more of a speed element as seniors. Meanwhile, Forsett, Savage and Little are versatile and elusive, but their lack of size and power will ultimately hurt them.


The real story of the 2008 running back class will ultimately be an influx of talented early entries. If Darren McFadden of Arkansas were a senior, he would be the top prospect on the 2008 draft board, regardless of position. His combination of size, speed, athleticism and versatility is unparalleled. McFadden's backup at Arkansas, Felix Jones, would start for most teams in the country and possesses the size, power and breakaway speed to one day emerge as an NFL starter.


Steve Slaton, Jamaal Charles, Ray Rice, James Davis and Jonathan Stewart are also supremely talented underclass backs who could crash the 2008 draft party.


Fullback prospects with the exceptional skills and versatility of Brian Leonard, selected in the second round by the Rams last April, come around once or twice per decade and the 2008 crop won't reverse that trend. Owen Schmitt and Peyton Hillis are future NFL contributors, however. Schmitt possesses a rare blend of size, speed and hands, much like current Saints FB Mike Karney. Hillis is a bit undersized but gets the most out of his physical ability as a runner, blocker and receiver as well as on kick coverage.

great find, Don!


if you look closely at the listed numbers of the above athletes, even "un-official" as they are, any sane person would ask why aren't Peyton Hillis and Owen Schmitt considered as "running" backs.


Hillis is as fast or faster than nearly every tailback rated higher than he is, despite weighing 30-40 pounds more!


Schmitt is just as fast as most of the tailbacks listed, and he outweighs them by nearly 50 pounds!


if big and fast is truly important, and we are led to believe that coaches like "punishing" runners who have "break-away" speed, why would these physically imposing athletes not be the cream of the crop?


oh! i almost forgot for a nano-second. it is because they are white, and no one wants the cream any more. they only want the coffee.

This was the thing that made me think about the modern NFL. How can all 32 starting half backs and all 32 backup half backs be african in a nation of 300 million? That's not only 1 season, that's season after season for years.

Statistically that's very, very unlikely. The best 64 half backs are always black, every year, for 10 years in a row? Bah. I can't buy that.Edited by: nevada

Hey Don, we were just chatting about this one thing in regards to Leonard and Jackson too. And I talked with Jimmie with Hillis and McFadden/Jones. Leonard was asked to step aside in college for Ray Rice. Ray is a decent back but nothing special that I have seen to merit Leonard having to give up his share of carries. Then with Hillis and Schmitt...Just about anywhere else in the nation they would be running wild and getting 1000's of yards. But again more good white RB's stuck behind probably the only RB's in the country that are that good to take some (not all mind you) of their carries away. McFadden and Slaton are going to be special backs and are probably better than half the RB's in the NFL right now. I can't take that away from them but they shouldn't have to take away all of the carries from Schmitt and Hillis. It isn't like either one of them hasn't proven themselves or could be running a split backfield. Man, I don't know. I would have told both Hillis and Schmitt to transfer but I have the funny feeling that another back will show up to take their spots when they got there. And as for Hester, he is all but demoted for Kieland Williams. I can't speak on Kieland if he is good or bad but it happens again. I personally don't have a problem with respectful blacks and I admit I may not be as hard on the caste system as others but we can never seem to get a break. Heck we can't even get any carries. Sorry guys, maybe I just needed to vent. What should a RB in Hillis' case do being a senior, great runner but not given a chance to shine b/c he is stuck behind probably the best back in the nation and a good backup?

I think unfortunatly, thats too late. I'd say train real hard on getting speed, and have a great combine, but, unlike Leonard, I guess Peyton doesn't have a lot of video of him rushing the ball..

Going the Brandon Jacob way could be a good idea, he could transfer to a run-oriented 1-AA team. But, then, i'm pretty sure he would lose his chance of being invited to the combine.

 

[Don Wassall]

I don't think Hillis and Schmitt would be allowed to be the featured runner anywhere outside of a few of the smallest I-A programs like say Nevada or one of the service academies. A "Ray Rice" will always be produced, no matter how unqualified. Schmitt especially, as no I-A schools wanted him even as a "fullback." These guys are physical specimens who would make great power backs, but the drunk white fans have been carefully trained to believe that no whites can or should be running the ball.


A great example of this lunacy in the NFLtook placea few years ago when the Dolphins starting tailback Cecil Collins was imprisoned and his backups were injured. The team searched near and far and frantically brought in a slew of black journeymen to compete for the job. In the meantime, their "fullback" was Rob Konrad, a 6-3 250 pound mutant with 4.5 speed and swivel who broke Massachusetts high school rushing records and who was a beast in his limited role with Syracuse. Konrad was never for a moment considered or given an opportunity to compete for the job, and of course none of the fans and no one in the media thought he should get an opportunity either. It was simply believed by all involved that any black journeyman, no matter how indisputably mediocre,was superior to white Rob Konrad.

I personally don't have a problem with respectful blacks and I admit I may not be as hard on the caste system as others but we can never seem to get a break. Heck we can't even get any carries.

I would like to make a critical point about the Caste System, White kids, anti-White ESPN and the break-down of White solidarity.

A vicious and unwavering "alien entity" that wants to destroy a people would, of course, want to prevent those people from seeing themselves in a strong, positive, talented and skillful light. The Caste System gives the false impression that blacks can do something that Whites CAN'T (RB, CB, WR). Wouldn't it be great if White kids could have posters of White skill players on their walls? They could also wear the jersey's of White skill players. But, instead, it is open season on the White male; it has become acceptable to deny and belittle White athletic prowess. Or, if a Whites athleticism cannot be denied, it is implied that he must have a black ancestor. This is an extreme insult when Europe and Europeans have the most glorious athletic history the world has ever known.

Watch the Little League World Series which ESPN has been airing since last week, and it will continue to air to the end. They have facts about the kids. The most important ones are, "who's their favorite baseball player, favorite non-baseball athlete and favorite actor. Congrats to the White kids who had Whites as their answers, but they were part of a very tiny minority. Thanks to pro-black "worldwide leader" ESPN, Do many of them even know about Nick Markakis, Josh Willingham, Dan Uggla, Erik Bedard, Justin Morneau, Ryan Zimmerman, Eric Byrnes, Josh Beckett and so on ----- or is black simply better and "cooler."

(DISCLAIMER: I am not and would not attack these kids. If parents don't step up, this is then the natural result of "the design" and these kids are most likely enamored and confused by the cultural-HIV that is "pop culture." If they can't find a way to snap-out on their own, they'll become even more confused and dejected.)

If somewhere in the mind of a White kid -- he or she thinks they lack athleticism because they are White -- this is a CRIME.

What physiological disadvantage do Whites have that prevents virtually all Whites from being effective RB's, or from even getting the opportunity? Must be those massive quads and calves and strong hams...

Basically, the Caste System has done a fine job of eroding White pride and solidarity. After all, solidarity is necessary to prevent destruction.

To the poster I quoted, this post is not any kind of an attack on you. If someone asked you, who is your favorite NFL RB, and you told them the name of the ONE White guy, this would be kind of awkward when you know that more than 1 White can play the position.

 

[voice]

you nailed that Deadift!

 

[mrjohnnynofear]

No problem, Deadlift. I do understand where you are coming from and agree %100. My thing is that it seems like the caste breakers we do have are stuck behind good backs and it is a bit frustrating. And there are countless more who never even got the chance. That is what bothers me. The reason that I said what I said is because I am kinda still new to realizing that whites were being held back. I read the site for a while but I have just now realize what you guys have been saying. My stand is that yeah there are a few good black athletes but there are just that many more white athletes that are not getting their just due or even a fair shot. I do appreciate the insight Deadlift!
