NBA OFF TOPIC THREAD

[fightinfunbags]

@trojanfan12 please shut this down

Why? Race in sports is a legitimate discussion piece in the Off Topic thread. Who the fuck are you to tell people what they can and can’t talk about?

Michael Vick used to get the same can't read defenses tag when he committed a TO. And being a running QB....

But, people will DENY it. LOL.

And that was what 20 years ago? People like you trying turn things back.

Like fightin said it happened with Dak last season and people not giving Hurts enough credit.

We still have a looooong way to go. Unfortunately. It is what is.

It is what it is, people like you trying to make excuses for people that don’t need them.

Still said about Lamar and Watson. They’re the first two that immediately come to mind.

Link?

 

[bksballer89]

Should easily be found via youtube or google so would be great if you can provide some type of evidence of this

Because you want to turn it in to something it isn’t. This is a sports board, and it’s not sports people saying the stuff you are trying to make up. Sports people judge people for what they see on the field. It’s people like you that try to get in their heads and turn it in to something it isn’t.

It's not like we are talking about Trump and Biden in here and you know it. Race has always been discussed when it comes to sports.

Just stop it already. You are sounding really pathetic.

Done with you.

 

[bksballer89]

So nobody going to post video or link of this happening recently? Got it lmfao

 

[bksballer89]

Done with you.

It took so long?

I know there is lingering prejudice from some in regards to black qbs but in no way shape or form do I feel the criticism towards Lamar or Deshaun has anything to do with race.

I think Lamar is a dumb person because he talks like he has a 12 year old education level. Not because he's black. I've definitely heard criticism about his throwing ability at times but this comes with him having a good team and 1 playoff win.

I just don't think it factors in decision making whatsoever any more. it definitely did as recently as the early 2000s.

I try to give everyone the benefit of the doubt, it’s just a message board. Screw loose though.

People saying Hurts is just a running QB and nothing more and the criticism about Dak last season is a perfect example. That nobody will address.

You big mad or just triggered?

What is there address about dak? He and the cowboys continues to fail in the playoffs. When you are the biggest/most popular team you will get criticism for failing in the post season

Gotta work my guy. Settle down. I’ll find something in a few hours if Nathan Bedford Forrest is successful in shutting down discussions on culture and sports.

 

[bksballer89]

Dak is 2-4 in the playoffs but lets not criticize him.

Peyton Manning who is WHITE got criticism as well for not showing up in the playoffs early in his career

He was 3-6 before their superbowl run

He got a lot of criticism last season before the postseason even started. Because he is a black QB throwing INT's and turning the ball over.
