Swede: My expertise in this area is extensive. The essential difference between a "battleship" and an "aircraft carrier" is that an aircraft carrier requires five direct hits to sink, but it takes only four direct hits to sink a battleship.

Can we not start asking to lock threads any time there's actually anything interesting to talk about?Originally posted by Tony Oday View PostCan we lock this thread? Nothing about football anymore...
Head on over to the infinitesimal details of the proposed sub-amendments of the CBA if you don't want to talk about the underlying race issues involved in the NFL draft."You're all very smart, and I'm very dumb." - Partial

HAHAHAHAHA....you crazy bastard.Originally posted by SkinBasket View PostIt's like god sent a messenger today. A white guy came over to give an estimate on exterior painting today and spent half an hour re-caulking a second story window. When I asked how much I owed for his efforts, he just said, "don't worry about it." Then promised to come back later in the week to seal it better. White people are crazy nice.

First off I typed "like clock work" for the simple reason every time I make a post your right on my ass like a dog in heat trying to make some dumbass point. You obvisouly want some response out of me so dont go ape shit when I do respond.Originally posted by SkinBasket View PostWhat? Your racist accusations that you refuse to back up? Maybe you were one of those racist and/or unskilled guys digging dirt at our house that did such a terrible job. I mean really, how can you fuck up digging dirt?
You want to elaborate or are you just going to stand there looking stupid per usual?
Second I've never called you a racist. Do I think your a prejudice asshole? Without a doubt. You want to jump straight to fact that the reason you have been getting better service is because your service people are white. I'm sure it has nothing to do with them being from a different company, you living in a different area, I'm guessing newer house, and the fact maybe they have more experience at their job. If I get bad service from a company and the guy doing the work is white I'm not going to single out all white people for that one guy who did a shitty job, I'm going to single out that company. You on the other hand made it pretty clear in your post that you prefer whites providing your services over colors. Its a reason we have equal opportunity laws in this country and its because of assholes like you.

Do some research before you make dumbass statements. Do you even know what Moon had to go through to get a shot in the NFL? Warren Moon a racist, give me a fucking break.Originally posted by Pugger View PostMoon is way off base here. There have been a boat load of crappy WHITE QBs that were taken in the first round the last few years but no one brings up their race:
Ryan Leaf
Tim Couch
Cade McNown
David Carr
Joey Harrington
Patrick Ramsey
Kyle Boller
JP Losman
Alex Smith
Matt Leinart
Brady Quinn
People like Moon who bring up the race card when someone slams a black athlete are the true racists in my book.

Has a lot changed? Of course but that doesnt mean we still dont have a long ways to go. The color of a man's skin should be no more significance than the color of his eyes. BTW I'm not blaming you for what happened in the past man, but anyone can adknowledge that the black community is where its at today is because of slavery. So for you to state that you didnt understand why they give out blacks scholarshisp and not white was pretty naive to me especially when I'm typing this while sitting in class right now as only one of three blacks of over 60 students.Originally posted by Brando19 View PostYou say some people aren't so privileged to come from a good family...are you referring to blacks, mexicans, etc.? Because i know a shitload of white people who need alot of help, too. I like you, Brandon so this isn't being thrown at you...i'm just voicing my opinion...but when you were joking you said WE set their race back...i ain't done shit. That was over a hundred years ago. These so called minorites need to get over it. I agree that racism is still alive, but it is alive both ways. Warren Moon needs to step the fuck back and take a look at what he is saying. This ain't 1850...hell...it ain't 1985. Alot's changed, but it won't keep changing for the better if we can't move on.Last edited by Brandon494; 04-05-2011, 04:42 PM.

I didn't say that. I said I've gotten better service from white workers than black. I didn't say the service was better because they were white. I'll give you a pass on this one though, since I know blacks don't test well on reading comprehension, and I wouldn't want to be racist and assume you're a bad reader only because you're black. I'm sure it has more to do with not knowing how to read.Originally posted by Brandon494 View PostYou want to jump straight to fact that the reason you have been getting better service is because your service people are white.
I've had a large sample to deal with over the past decade. Your excuses all fail. Not because of exceptions, but because of the rule. The fact that I've had so much experience with "colors," as you call them, proves your accusations of prejudice false. You fail. Again.Originally posted by Brandon494 View PostI'm sure it has nothing to do with them being from a different company, you living in a different area, I'm guessing newer house, and the fact maybe they have more experience at their job.

And it brings me back to the question... Is it simply because the white workers are better at their jobs or because the black ones were racists who were intentionally providing subpar service?"You're all very smart, and I'm very dumb." - Partial
