Buddy Young was an NCAA 100yd champion way back in the 40's. Then there was Olympian Ollie Matson in the 50's. The 60's saw Jimmy Brown, John Henry Johnson, Lenny Moore, Dick Bass, J.D.Smith, Timmy Brown. All great black running backs. Sure there was Jim Taylor but who else as far as stud "white" backs went? Ok..Hugh "The King" McElhenny. When the AFL came into existence in 1960 we had...Cookie Gilchrist, Paul Lowe, Clem Daneils and Abner Haynes all black runners who would gain a 1000 yds in a season. Yes there was also Keith "white"Lincoln but he never had a 1000 yd season. Today we see nothing but black running backs. Oh sure we might see an Alstott/Czonka type white cat banging the line but when it comes to a gamebreaker....black! Why do all of you "here" struggle with this so? If you "must" play this.."all those black dudes are on drugs"...well then explain all those great backs way back in the day like a Marion Mottley, Bobby Mitchell, Willie Galimore,Jimmy Brown, Leroy Kelly, Gale Sayers...were they on drugs?
You guys got off into all those fast white cats in the NFL. Yet none of you really have a clue. The fastest paleface to ever play in the NFL was a guy out of SMU named John Roderick. He was a legit 9.3 guy. As a Dolphin....bust! No Tim Dwight didn't have "world class" speed. He was a 10.33 guy wind aided. When he won the Big10 for Iowa he ran a 10.4ish. That won't win Cal State high school. No Don Beebe or Travis Jervey had "world class" speed. Go ahead try and prove me wrong, show me their track credentials while in college. Nothing special at all. Would you believe...Bob Hayes, Sam Graddy, Frank Budd, Willie McGee, Ray Norton, Travis Williams, Ron Brown, Jamaal Charles,Terrence Newman, Curtis Dickey, Willie Gault, Mel Gray, Isacc Curtis,Darrel Green,Alvis Whitted, Michael Bennett, Deion Sanders, Hercshel Walker, Cliff Branch, Phil Epps, James Jett, James Trapp, Curtis Conway, Cecil Turner, Henry Carr, Anthony Miller, Johnny Jones, Michael Haynes and Michael Bates all ran a sub 10.30m/9.4yds? Now other than Roderick show me that white cat to pull that off? Well there was Tennesse hurdler Richmond Flowers but he only ran a 9.4. Not sure what 13.3 man Jerry Tarr out of Oregon/Broncos ran the 100 in. Don Hutson the old Green Bay Packer had some serious jets for his day, a 9.8yds. Thorpe and "The Galloping Ghost" could scoot.
I'm hoping you guys "finally" figure me out. Big time track/football fan who could school this entire board on who, what, where and when. Yet because I know better than to..."well if whites only got their shot, they'd..." I get treated like a square at a circles convention. Didn't Sam McGuffie get his shot? Why wasn't he told.."boy, only blacks can..." Why wasn't sprinter Dallas Robinson told..."sorry son, wrong color!"
Are you people telling me you've... **honestly**... never noticed how far more agile/elusive/quick/fast black athletes are when compared to whites? You can't be serious if you are. Blacks kids are outrunning little white kids. We see those going to be great black backs at the high school level. Ever see a highlight video of Reggie Bush at Helix High? That Noel Devine video looks like a video game. Yes I know..."oh yeah, well what about McGuffie?" Ok cool. Now rattle off a dozen other speedy/quick/elusive white backs in the last 30 years? I can't even begin to name all those quick/agile/speedy blacks ones. Yes I could but it wouldtake wayyyyy too long. Look at NCAA football today withJeff Demps 10.01 and Trindon Holiday 10.02. Hell the SEC has had....Leonard Scott, Xavier Carter and John Capel. Before Bush USC had Sultan "10.17" McCullough. Now who here wants to try and talk "white" speed on a football field?
Wake up to.....reality...ok?
What college/NFL team doesn't have a speedy andtall black receiver? Where are those fast white receivers at 6-3? Here's where you..."ever hear of Matt Jones"...hahahaha!!!!!!!!!!!
There is a reason we have to go back to Hugh "The King" McElhenny, John David Crow, Sonny Randle and Lance Alworth from the 60's to find some fast paleface "stars" in the NFL. No it's not about the lack of opportunity. it's in the fact they can't compete with the superior black athete.
Wake up to....reality...ok?
I understand my stay here will be a short one, nobody "here" really wants to deal with that "reality" when it's more fun to live in that fantasy world you've created here so I'll also touch on some track.
Would you believe no white American has ever ran a sub 10.10? Hard to believe isn't it? Would you believe we have to go all the way back to 1964 and Dartmouths Gerry Ashworth to find a white sprinter on a USA Olympic 4x1 team? He was there because oif injuries to blacks Mel Pender and Trenton Jackson. Yes Bobby Morrow and Dave Sime were great sprinters as were Mel Patton and Hal Davis.Then after 1960..............poof!!!!! No not forgetting Georgia Tech's Ben Vaughn but he never ran on an Olympic team.
By now it should be obvious I know this stuff, hell I could talk about guys none of you have ever heard of, how about 9.2yds Andrew Hopkins out of Stephen F.Austin or maybe Laverne "9.3" Smith out of Kansas. Injuries did them in. Yes more black speedsters on a football field. For you uninformed. know little, need an education, to try and tell me.."no that's not right"...hahahahahahahaha!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Now this could read...Gale Sayers, Barry Sanders, Tony Dorsett, Walter Payton, Paul Lowe, Abner Haynes, Eric Dickerson, O.J.Simpson, LaDanian Tomlinson, Adrian Peterson, Lenny Moore. Bobby Mitchell etc etc etc etc etc etc.
