how can these guys keep printing this crap. has nothing to do with skin color...its about ability. people are critical of mike vick, aaron brooks and kordell stewart because they stink. just like joey harrington, cade mcnown and tim couch stink.

they compare vick to manning and say that, in a situation where the play is not there that vick is taught to "make something happen" and manning is taught to "throw the ball away"...then imply that this is some sort of racist agenda. this may in fact be what they are taught but it is in no way based on skin color...it is based on ability. coaches probably asked fran tarkenton and steve young to "make plays" all the time. but, i doubt jack delrio wants byron leftwich or david gerrard running up the middle on 3rd and 12.

just another ridiculous article defending poor play by implying racism. i'm sick of it.

journalist: boss, i have a great idea on an article...i have a brilliant arguement for a college football playoff system. it will keep the bowl games intact, generate more revenue for all the schools and give us a clear-cut national champ. can i print it?

boss: hhhmmmm, sounds a bit contrived. how about a piece on how black quarterbacks are not treated fairly by coaches, fans and the media.

journalist: come on boss...not that again.

boss: do you want your crappy christmas bonus?

journalist: uummm, yes.

boss: then, get crackin'

journalist: ok...:nopityA:

Complete and utter bullshit. Really no other way to look at it. BS articles like this do nothing but deepen the racial divide in this country

exactly. and, they diminish instances of true racism which, unfortunately still occur in this country.

Vick sucks so bad at QB that they're debating moving him to a new position, but this jerkoff thinks it's all about race? I'm with Blue - of course there is racism out there. Always has been, always will be, but that doesn't mean we ought to start making up imaginary cases to sell some ads online.

Pathetic - Yahoo Sports should be embarrassed that they have an editor who would actually allow such rubbish to get published. Oh, and as for coaching turnover -- Brees and his bum shoulder with a new team don't seem to be having any problems, so maybe it's actually possible for talent to overcome adversity.

"Over the years, Vick, Brooks and Daunte Culpepper have consistently been sacked more than the likes of Manning and Brady."

Umm, maybe because Manning and Brady are drop-back passers that know when to get rid of the ball, and Vick, Brooks, and Culpepper dance around behind the line of scrimmage like morons.
