You could have actually done that through action, not words.

Yeah, that's the funny part. I am happier with our QB situation than I have been in years, and it took this turd of an article for me to even notice the main premise....bit of a stretch. (And NO, I'm not denying racism as there are @#$%&'s everywhere.) And to whoever brought up Marlin Briscoe in the 60's, thanks for making me feel ancient! Like yourself - so take THAT! :)

Not only that, but the Chipotle. He already doesn't look as tight as TT or EJ, he better knock that s*** off.

Chipotle is what you make it. It can be very healthy, even vegan.

instead of reading the entire thread (I read about 1/3), But having skimmed/read the OP's linked article, I came away with one thought.

 

The article paints Buff as one of the most racially divided cities in the USA. Prolly is. I havent lived there since the early 90s. But . . .

 

I believe it was the 1980 census, where we were waiting with baited breath, for what we saw all around us to be confirmed (or not).

 

And yes, finally, the City of Buffalo was more than 50% black.

 

OMG it was dancing in the streets. Any of y'all remember?

 

(Edit: Apparently I was misinformed. Or our elders mistold us. But still it was good times back then. See pg 63. https://www2.census.gov/prod2/decennial/documents/1980/1980censusofpopu80134unse_bw.pdf )

 

No..............But, I do remember Talkin' Proud that year.

 

We had an issue in the 60's with Marlin Briscoe. But that was an issue league-wide. Not just Buffalo. Ralph Wilson was a lot of things but racist is not one of them. You know UB was the first D-1 school with a black AD, head football and head basketball coach? Good thing this writer didn't know that or he Would have written a massive expose on racism in Buffalo. <_<.

 

Actually, Denver had the issue. He totally got screwed by Lou Saban. He was a receiver when we got him. He led the league, so it was probably pretty hard to have him switch back to QB at that point.

 

 

Why would he have his main picture be a bunch of good to great white quarterbacks?
