Cleveland Browns Running Back Peyton Hillis: The Great White Hope
-
Just some guys trying to gain an edge and get under hillis's skin and in his head..
Im sure at the end of the day they have respect for his ability to dish it out and take it...

So its perfectly ok for white players to tell Vick and Mcnabb, "Come on black boy, you can't throw!" then, too, right? What's good for the goose...

Jesse Jackson, people like him. They won't LET racism go away, they thrive on it, and find it everywhere, mostly where it isn't.
In that, they made it a political grenade launcher, and a living for themselves.

people say i'm crazy when i say it, but i've been making this statement since i was a senior in HS.
"the white male is the most discriminated against combo of race/sex there is."
why do i say that? well........................
it's okay to say anything about white people..........why? i don't know, but black comedians don't feel like they're doing their job unless 1/2 of their bit is racist comments and stereotyping of white people (males especially)
there are hundreds of programs for women.......single moms, beaten women, women's shelters, etc......ad nauseum. what about the "single parent, white male shelters"?
there are hospitals dedicated to only women's health.
there are colleges that actively advertise that they're a "black" college. could you imagine if a college described itself as a "white college"?
there are "recognition" months for just about every ethnicity and also a month dedicated to women.
minorities even get into college more easily than white males. most colleges go off of a point system that you earn points for varios things (GPA, class rank, exracurricular activities, leadership in school clubs, ethnicity, sex)..........well, a couple yrs ago boston college had a story done about how a student needs a score of 600pts to be accepted, and just for being black, indian, oriental, or hispanic you got 400pts right off the bat!!!!!!! and if you were a woman, you got an aditional 50pts!!!!
and don't even get me started on affirmative action.

lets not get in a race debate..
You can use many examples of it going both ways.. For instance when lacy peterson was murdered it was a huge story, cause why she is white..
Of all the children who get kidnapped watch cnn and see how many kids are white, casey anthony, ect..
does anyone really get offended when they get called a whiteboy?

rants like this demonstrate a fundamental understanding of the history of the United States, the role of the white male, and the experiences of people who are neither white nor male in said society. i usually don't dignify this sort of shit with a thoughtful response. if you really believe that the white male is the most discriminated against sector of the population, you are delusional beyond comprehension.

It goes both ways. Notice how black QBs get treated by some people. See Big Ben vs. Vince Young. Imagine if Vince had done the things Ben did, and Big Ben did all the things Vince did.
Vick is really lucky he's got the media behind him, if you ask me. Sort of an anomaly. There's a presumption made by a lot of people about any black QB that they're great runners and athletes but terrible passers, or they don't "get" the game, etc.
Obviously many people are beyond all this, but it's there. QB is a "white" position and RB/WR are "black" positions. I applaud anyone who successfully breaks the stereotype, and Hillis is a great example. Donovan McNabb hasn't been a perfect QB, but he's been very, very good and probably would have been given more respect by some people had he been white.

in america, in the modern day?
name one that is more discriminated against.
maybe, and only maybe in recent times i would say latinos are making a push with all the "illegal immigration" crap being thrown around.
and that's ANOTHER thing i can't stand.........the term "illegal immigrant". you want to talk about "illegal immigration"? how bout the genocidal treatment of the native americans that inhabited this country before it was ever discovered by uropeans.
but i'm getting off topic. if you can think of one.........pm me it. i'd love to debate why you think the white male isn't the most discriminated ethnic/sex combo there is.

no, mcnabb would have gotten respect if he'd been drafted anywhere but in philly. worst fanbase in sports.

Great conversation. Racism lives and many people of all races make decisions based upon their biases.
Regarding black QBs part of the problem is that the coaches want them to use their athleticism, it makes their teams better. And it really wouldn't matter whether those guys were white or black, coaches in college want you to run if that is a great skill. It creates big plays and makes your offense and passing game harder to defend. So a guy who can run will not receive the same emphasis on learning the passing game that a guy without athletic talent would. If a great runner has been playing QB for a long time they know that when things get tough you take off and hope to make a big play. I remember that Mark Brunell said that he didn't really learn how to play QB until he had an injury that kept him from running.

Oh yes, the ever persecuted white male.
You are absolutely talking out of your ass.

I could care less what race any of our players are as long as they do their job and help us win.
Hot women with big boobs rule the world anyway.

"Let me clear this up, I'm not saying white people are better. I'm just saying being white is clearly better, who can even argue with that? Seriously, if you're not white, you're missing out because it is thoroughly good. If it was an option, I'd re-up ever year. Here's how great it is to be white, I can get in a time machine and go to any time...and it would be awesome when I get there. That is exclusively a white privilege. Black people can't fuxk with time machines. A black guy and a time machine and he's like 'Anything before 1980, no thank you. I don't want to go there.' But I can go to any time. The year 2... I don't know whats happening then. But I know right when I get there, 'Welcome we have a table right here for you'. I can go to any time...in the past. I don't want to go to the future and find out what happens to white people because were going to pay hard for this shit, you gotta know that. It's not like were gonna fall from number 1 to number 2. They are gonna hold us down and fuxk us in the ass forever and we totally deserve it. But for now... weeeeeeee"
"If you're white and you don't admit it's awesome you're an asshole. And I'm a man, how many advantages can one person have? I'm a white man, you can't even hurt my feelings. What could you really call a white man that really digs deep? 'Hey, cracker.' 'Uh, ruined my day. Shouldn't have called me a cracker, brings me back to owning land and people.'"

I don't agree with the black QB thing. Moon was unreal.......and all ben does, hate to admit this, is win. Mcnabb brought it on himself with the stupid comments after choking, again. Vince is a headcase.
Win and bring home a trophy or two, no problems. Be one of the best and no problems. Quinn was made fun of too. Leaf? LOL!
