The Wiz Posted August 31, 2016 Share Posted August 31, 2016 Because he sucked. So does EJ(to a lesser extent) but we can't seem to go 3 days without starting the same thread about him over again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Magox Posted August 31, 2016 Share Posted August 31, 2016 How many DMVs in Buffalo? Ha! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LeviF Posted August 31, 2016 Share Posted August 31, 2016 Not that much, though. Yes, as zonabb so eloquently pointed out. I know in the suburbs things have been moving a little bit (and I do mean a little). Downtown may be a different story. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nanker Posted August 31, 2016 Share Posted August 31, 2016 You can think what you want, but it's a pretty popular sentiment by a lot of people based on their experiences. You dont have to pry to hard to get someone to admit it. That's sad Dr. D. Sorry you feel that way. Sorry anybody does. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DrDawkinstein Posted August 31, 2016 Share Posted August 31, 2016 Can't even win at being racist. Typical buffalo. Middle of the pack as usual. LOL :beer: Buffalo has never had an issue of black QBs - James Harris was drafted by Buffalo and was just 2nd black QB of the modern era. Good counter point to the article. I cant say that Buffalo isnt a racist city, but it's true that the Bills haven't had an issue with black QBs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kelly the Dog Posted August 31, 2016 Share Posted August 31, 2016 For awhile Jason Sehorn of the Giants was the only white CB in the NFL. Don't know if there are any now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jon in Pasadena Posted August 31, 2016 Share Posted August 31, 2016 From the article: a surprisingly mobile Greg Roman, the offensive coordinator, chasing them around and whacking them with what looks like an inflatable Twinkie on a long stick.

Freddie's Dead Posted August 31, 2016 Share Posted August 31, 2016 (edited) Wow. Until I saw this thread and read that idiotic article, it never even dawned on me that we had three black QB's, or that anyone put any more significance on that fact over the other facts we discuss here. Namely, that TT is God, EJ sucks and needs to go, and that Cardale is the second coming and should get the backup job over EJ. Most racist city in the North? I bet that Rashad Brown never spent any time in Central PA, Philly, or Pittsburgh. There's a reason that the Mason-Dixon line is the southern border of PA. I grew up in the 70's and 80's in lily-white NT, but you can't say the same about the demographics of NT now. "Pattern of segregation?" Tyler Tynes should be ashamed for writing such a blatant agenda piece under the guise of a news reporter. This was an opinion column.

Don't know if there are any now.Dustin Fox was the last one in the NFL, I think. Played for Bills at one point. He has a (really good) sports talk show in Cleveland on 92.3 the fan.

BringBackFergy Posted August 31, 2016 Share Posted August 31, 2016 You can think what you want, but it's a pretty popular sentiment by a lot of people based on their experiences. You dont have to pry too hard to get someone to admit it. I don't think I'm alone in wanting to enjoy football apart from a discussion of race relations. The author chose to "fan the flames" by intimating that racism somehow plays a role in coaching decisions. A ridiculous thought since every coach looks to maximize talent no matter what color of skin. If this was about governmental appointments, presidential elections, or fair wages, then the race discussion may be appropriate; I just don't believe (don't hold it against me) that racism is alive and well in the selection of players on a professional football team. Just my opinion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If the author really wanted to start a **** storm, he would have analyzed the all white WR's/TE/QB's on NE and questioned why Bill Bellichick is considered a "genius"....but nobody wants to offend the hoodie.
