Is race still an issue for NFL QBs?

[JL21]

I have a serious issue with the lack of black placekickers and punters in the NFL. I cannot wait for the day when we can celebrate the first black punter to appear in the Super Bowl.

Reggie Roby says you already saw it.

Did I say "appear"? I meant "win".

What about Vick, Garrard, Freeman?

If you read the article you'll find that it's not the lack of black QBs but how many opportunities and how much criticism they get.

And white cornerbacks and running backs deal w/ the same thing.
It's all bogus.

At the rate we're going, the entire league will be Samoan by 2026, rendering this whole discussion moot.

But aren't Vick and Freeman are being praised for their QB work? Maybe I'm missing the point, or maybe the point is to just stir stuff up for webpage hits.

I think it has way more to do with Black America's perception of how Black Americans are treated.

I didn't know that Jemele Hill spoke for Black America.

I'm inferring that you think my comment is baseless.

Jamele Hill is like Scoop Jackson's younger sister who doesn't yell all the time.
