I can't see this because if Leslie Frazier cared about playing black QBs, Joe Webb would have played over Ponder.

uhh.....no. Webb is flashy but most of the time can't find the endzone. Ponder is much better.

Ponder was better than Donavan too, but if you claim that Donavan got the spot due to race, then why doesn't Webb get the spot then too over Ponder?


I think that's what BC was getting at

OK, let me clarify what I mean. I don't think Leslie Frazier is going to pick any black QB over a white QB. I don't think there's inherent racism or anything in what he does. I just think that Donovan's career combined with his race had a lot to do with how long he kept the starting job in Minnesota, though he played like shit the entire time.The season was lost early. They should have played the kid by week 3.

Because Joe Webb shouldn't even be classified as a QB. That's how bad he is. He doesn't read the defense, most of his big plays are broken plays when he can improvise. And like Bware said, he's not going to choose any black QB.

Yeah, that's what my point is. I'm not trying to say that Frazier initially picked McNabb to start because of race. I just think it was a factor in how long he kept his job.

Dont'a Hightower changed his number to #54, Tedy's old number.


But more importantly, thats the number Brian Waters wore last year. Looks like he isn't coming back :(

I picked the Cowboys to win, but now that Jenkins and Ratliff are out, I'm taking NYG

Who you guys got tonight? I want the Cowboys to win badly (for obvious reasons). But I think the Giants will pull it out. Only weakness for the Cowboys is Tony Romo. I just don't think he has it anymore. I guess we'll find out tonight though.

I can't bring myself to root for the Cowboys so I'm rooting for NYG (although that's pretty hard too)

Wouldn't mind if it ended in a tie, personally.

Hahaha. Giant/Cowboy fans wouldn't like that.
