    Just like black quarterbacks aren't smart enough to make quick decisions, at least not quick/smart decisions, which ends up resulting in piss poor NFL quarterbacks.

    Example: Steve Mcnair during the superbowl. He felt pressured, and instead of throwing the ball into the endzone, he didn't process the info as fast as, let's say, a Kurt Warner, so he scrambled, and made a quick decision, by throwing the ball 5 yards short, forcing his WR to try making up for his mistake against one of the faster defenses that season. If roles had been reversed, Kurt Warner would have thrown the ball into the endzone. Perhaps it would have been dropped or picked, but Warner would have put his team into better position to tie that game. Why? Because what Warner lacks in athletism, he makes up for with football intelligence.

    None of us actually want a black quarterback leading our team. It's not because we're racist, it's because black quarterbacks are some of the most ignorant athletes in sports. I repeat, black QUARTERBACKS. Am I saying black people are stupid in general? Not at all. I know many intelligent black people. I also know a few intelligent black athletes, just not intelligent enough to play the quarterback position.

    That's life.
    Great to have you back Nuke.

        What about Brown QB's like Mark Sanchez? Is he destined for mediocrity!?!? When i was young I always wanted to play QB but my dad always told me I was never going to be good enough. I asked him why one day and he said because there is no such thing as Mexican QB son, its just life. I told him, "But I look white!" He said it didn't matter I had a Hispanic last name.

          Nah. Sanchez is okay.

          But what about Tampa Bay? Just be glad you aren't a Bucs fan. Black Quarterbacks are so awful, Luke Mccown is looking like a starter. Brown QBs are only half retarded.

                    Can't say there isn't some shred of truth to what Nuk said.

                    And Ralaw, if Fargas is half white and wants to say he's white, then he's white. At least that's the new rule set forth by Obama.

                        There aren't even any white RBs in college. I think the last true white tailback to go to the NFL was Kevin McDougal from Colorado State, and he had a cup of coffee with the Colts a couple years ago.

I know that there has to be a white guy out there that could play the running back in the nfl, hell my highschool had the top running back in the state four years in a row and he didn't get picked up by a div1 school. Does race come into account when scouting and drafting a player to play this position? I know this may come off as racist and I apologize if it does but it just seems a lil perplexing to me that no caucasian running backs play at the professional level...


                          Edit: After further investigation it seems there maybe some physiological reasons why it is a predominantly black postion. Tendon and muscle structure being one of the main reasons I am coming across. Sounds like proof of evolution to me but what do I know....


                          because all the lazy white kids dont go to P.E. class anymore.

                            White guys get hurt too much. Their bodies just can't take the pounding. I can't imagine a white RB getting 350+ carries. Even big white FBs like Alstott get beat up. I honestly think its somewhat genetic. Look at Ivan Drago...even with drugs he still got cut.
