You sir, are a racists. "Facts are facts."

You are entitled to your opinions, but consider this a warning to keep your racist comments off this board.

And for future reference, if you ever want someone to take your seriously, instead of making ridiculous gross generalizations, maybe you should learn to back up your statements with facts.

What I wonder is if Aaron Brooks were white, would you have said, "I think the Saints will not want to build their franchise on another white quarterback..."

I do believe I am right, and am no racist and that there is a lot of logic behind my point. However I realize this may have offended people and I apologize for the comments I respect your wishes so I will refrain from posting anything like this.

And as for Young I guess we will have to wait and see.

I guess I don't know much about McNair, but from what I have heard he was (I would say is but...) pretty intelligent on the field. I may be wrong, but someone with more knowledge of the Titans from about 5 years ago could let us know. Last time I checked, he was African American.

My girlfriend is black, so I don't take kindly to stuff like this. To be honest, I was surprised at the stereotypes I found hidden in myself over the 3 years I have been with her. I, after all, considered myself nothing of a racist, but I found some disturbing stuff inside. You do need to realize that the comments you made are racist (if you deny this still, check the dictionary); you made a statement that implies all black quarterbacks are incapable of doing what Manning does. You generalized and said that a difference in race implies a difference in certain characteristics. I do not think you are A racist, but you made a racist comment, and as much as they are socially taboo I also think they represent a bit of immaturity. You cant organize the world and you can't categorize it. Cliche time: Don't judge a book by its cover.

I realize I made a mistake. I appreciate that you do not think that I am a racist, and I already apologized for the comments. Again my apolies for the comments.

There aren't many great black quarterbacks in history because they never got a chance to play due to racist fuckwads. I can think of a few good ones, notice how they are all from the eighties or later. Doug Williams won a Superbowl, Warren Moon, Randall Cunningham, Donovan McNabb, and Steve McNair. Moon is a hall of famer. Cunningham is close but won't get there. I think McNair has a great chance at being a hall of famer. McNabb too if he can rebound from all the bullshit in Philly. Byron Leftwich is very promising as well. Of course there's Culpepper. I don't like that guy though, heh.

There isn't a person on earth, black, white, yellow, puerto rican, or haitian, who is dumber than former Bears quarterback Cade McNown.

And Ryan Leaf?
