This is a good week to watch the pre-season as it's usually the last chance for the token crackers that are on each of the Negro Football League teams to have a shot. That is, if they completely dominate and perform absolutely spectacularly, then they might have a shot at special teams. All a black has to do is show "flashes", whatever that means, and it guarantees them a year or two of opportunity.

Anyway, tonight features the Patriots, which are actually a watchable team, against Detroit. I haven't run the numbers, but it's possible that the percentage of white players on the Detroit roster EXCEEDS the percentage of white folks in Detroit. That's something to make you go "hmmmmmmm....."

Yep, I wonder if there will be electricity in the stadium without rolling blackouts throughout what's left of the bankrupt once-great motor city...:rip:

well actually 3rd preseason game is supposed to be majority starters for 2 to 3 quarters, 4th preseason game is where guys on the bubble fight for a roster spot, but its all confusing know with the ridiculous amount of injuries to football players, mostly black, which should have led an increase in chances for Whites, but more blacks have filled in their place for the most part.

Ninkovich is all over the field making plays

Not sure if there is a better LB in the NFL than Luke Kuechly!

Brandon Stokley looking good tonight for the Ravens...at the ripe young age of 37! Wish he could have stayed at Denver...could have given Welker a breather...then again he should get more PT now.

Luke Kuechly is getting an incredible amount of respect on Sportscenter. They're calling him the best middle linebacker in the NFL

Isn't if funny how the limited amount of white linebackers in the league are among the best players in the game at the position time and time again. Kuechly, Greenway, Matthews, and Laurianitis consistently put up great numbers. The linebacker position could easily be three quarters white.

I didn’t see the Patriots-Lions game, but here are some interesting observations from random articles…

Thompkins and Julian Edelman have been the top receivers on the depth chart tonight. No surprise for Thompkins, but Edelman has gotten reps over Aaron Dobson and Josh Boyce. Dobson got more reps later in the quarter.

Edelman allegedly played in 45 of 46 snaps in the first half. Apparently, he was playing in the slot in place of Amendola. I’m not sure if he played outside.

Don mentioned in another thread that New England will have an all-white OL this season. Assuming Will Svitek (who’s started all three games this pre-season) or Dan Connolly remain the starter at RG over Marcus Cannon, this will remain the case. Connolly returned from shoulder surgery last night, which is great news…

Connolly entered the game for the Patriots’ second series, and the two right guards rotated throughout the half.

With the addition of Adrian Wilson this off-season, the thought was always that he’d supplant Steve Gregory (who started at SS when healthy last season), but Gregory has started every pre-season game, even with Wilson healthy…

Devin McCourty and Steve Gregory were the starting safeties in the first game where the top three on the depth chart (Adrian Wilson) were all available.

With the rotund Daniels Fells injured (and hopefully cut soon enough), Ballard and Sudfeld started at TE once again. This is a good sign, as Gronkowski’s eventual return could leave the unit all-white for the season. The slow-footed Hoomanawanui (who is more of the FB than a tight end) is a decent blocker and could be retained instead of Ballard or FB James Develin…

At tight end, Jake Ballard and Zach Sudfeld opened as the top combination. Ballard has gradually upped his workload this preseason, with his 27 snaps a high

I knew Maryland DT, Joe Vallano, was on the roster, but I didn’t realize he was so high on the depth chart. Apparently, he started at DT last night in place of Wilfork…

Joe Vellano started in place of Vince Wilfork, who is dealing with some sort of leg injury.

Does this mean that Vellano is destined to make the squad?

Kuechy may be the best I have ever seen. I think if he stays healthy he wins the defensive player of the year.

Others to mention off the top of my head: Sean Lee, Paul Posluszny, Brian Cushing, Barrett Ruud.....

4 of the top 8 tacklers last year were white (they still are). 50% of the linebackers in the league are not white. Kuechly, Greenway, Laurenaitis, and Posluszny are in no way "freaks" of any sort. They are outstanding athletes, but they are not statistical outliers in any way. They just were lucky enough to get the chance, from high school forward.

Much the same on sacks. Watt, Matthews, Allen, and Long, all in the top 13 for sacks. None of them are "freaks" either. Actually, Watt might be a freak.

At least a few whites get a chance at linebacker, though a lot of good ones are moved to fullback the second they set foot on a college campus.

I'd disagree a bit Kaptain. The best linebacker I have ever seen was Andy Katzenmoyer. He had the perfect combination of size and speed. Sad that injuries never let him reach his potential.

Ah, the Big Kat. Of course Andy is lampooned by DWFs as a colossal bust, and was even labeled by some publication as the worst 28th draft pick ever. I had fun with the DWFs in the comments of that back when it came out.

Yet, he was the equivalent of Matt Jones in terms of affletic ability at the position.

Wilson has thrown two picks. Hope this is a sign of things to come.

anyone familiar with number 1 Gillet? for the Packers? looks White, Radio has targeted him twice, two catches

Alex Gillett. I wrote about him a couple of years ago. He was a very good dual threat QB for EMU before he was moved to WR his senior year.

Looks like Matt Flynn is going to lose the starter job to Terrelle Pryor.I guess now that he learned how to throw a football he will be the next "unstoppable,athletic" QB to be worshiped by the DWFs.

Pryor is a joke. Like most black quarterbacks he may have periods of good play but if you put him in for a whole game his stats would come out looking pretty avg to mediocre.

Raiders announcers: "The fans want Prior in there" If this doesn't speak volumes just as to how drunk the DWF's are, I don't know what does.

I saw this commercial during the Packers/Seahawks game. Watch the eyes on the woman throughout the commercial. Of course her fat boring husband is playing video games on the coach.

The Caste System just keeps on ticking. They throw you things you can't imagine, in worst case scenarios. So now Pryor may be annointed the starter, based on one halfway decent game against scrub defenders? I don't know if Matt Flynn will ever be any good, but losing out on a starting job that was considered guaranteed to be his, two years in a row, to unheralded, magical black quarterbacks, is a bit much, even for this corrupt league.

And we still have the great white purge to come, which this year may include some really big names, like Austin Collie and Peyton Hillis, and Tim Tebow, who are demonstrably better players than at least half the league starters at their positions.

Watching the midget toss 2 picks and get sacked was great. All of a sudden pryor is a legitimate option at starting qoutaback? What a joke.McGloin has more talent.It's a shame the rookie from Arkansas has been struggling.

bigunreal, I think you're not looking at this in depth sir. From my vantage point, everything seems to be coming apart in the nfl. The black players aren't really able to keep themselves under any type of control even during the season now. The league is deteriorating right in front of our eyes. If I can see this, certainly some of those owners can see it too. While we don't like the owners, I think they're not stupid. Probably, some of them are quietly looking to dump their team before it becomes a financial albatross around their necks.

I would like to believe this is true, but I don't know if this is a realistic point of view with the league being the television cash cow that it is. Unlike the NHL, the NFL is not a gate driven league. Its driven by massive TV contracts. As long as that TV money keeps coming in, they could be playing in front of empty stadiums and it wouldn't matter too much.

The main problem is that football is so embedded into the cultural psyche of America that even people like us who are racially aware, don't want to give it up. The reality is, we shouldn't have to give it up. Football was created by whites, for whites. Our cultural Marxist overlords were the ones who decided to infiltrate the system and create the caste type of environment we see in the NFL and college. A large part of this is due to TMZSPN and their desire to sell stories and entertainment over quality sports. I do notice more people are waking up to this, but we still have a long way to go.
