Amazing how about 3/4 of projected first round picks are black in this draft, and there can still be a perception by anyone that blacks are being discriminated against in the scouting process.

I think that's too great a generalization. Moon suggests that white scouts/ journalists think black QBs a stupid, lazy dopeheads waiting in line for sentencing. Certainly, a top 10 pick shouldn't be wasted on a top 10 QB.Originally posted by get louder at lambeau View PostAmazing how about 3/4 of projected first round picks are black in this draft, and there can still be a perception by anyone that blacks are being discriminated against in the scouting process.

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.

It's about a 1,000 page book that covers the political world of the third reich - it's all inside politics. The war operations are just background. The book is all about what the various players were thinking and doing at every step along the way, from Hitler's youth to his suicide, based on a thorough review of all the available documents. And there were a lot of documents to be had.Originally posted by Tarlam!

I dont know about scouts but a few people on this board have already compared him to J Russell even though their games are nothing alike. I think he'll be similar to VY without being a headcase. Won't have pretty stats but he's going to win you some football games.Originally posted by Tarlam! View PostI think that's too great a generalization.

After your initial reference i googled it. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Ris...he_Third_Reich It's hardly considered free from criticism it seems.Originally posted by mraynrand View PostIt's about a 1,000 page book that covers the political world of the third reich - it's all inside politics.

My positition on this is The Treaty provided the possibility for Hitler's rise, based on what I've seen/read. Living here, I can tell you that I find it so difficult to imagine these people allowing a Hitler to rise again. You never know. About a decade ago, the Austrians voted for thinly camouflagued fascist party into government. Europe alienated them until the leader of the party resigned from vice chancellor. He killed himself in a DUI a few years ago. Subsequent investigations revealed he was gay!
The last prominent leader of the current nazi party in Germany died 15 years ago. Of AIDS!! These days, there's no real figure that has emerged as an heir apparent to Hitler. The party has never collected enough support to be in our Congress and we don't have an elected Senate. They've been single term participants in about 3 state parliaments in the last 2 decades.

Well, most people on this board accurately picked the outcome of both Russell and Young. I think Partial was a huge Young fan wasn't he?Originally posted by Brandon494 View PostI dont know about scouts but a few people on this board have already compared him to J Russell even though their games are nothing alike.

Is the entire situation really any different than people comparing Jimmer Fredette to JJ Redick? Is that racist too?Originally posted by Brandon494 View PostI dont know about scouts but a few people on this board have already compared him to J Russell even though their games are nothing alike.

Who said it was racist? Huh? Both are horrible comparsions which are based off skin color by fans who dont actually watch games and base their opinion from watching sportscenter highlights.Originally posted by Zool View PostIs the entire situation really any different than people comparing Jimmer Fredette to JJ Redick?

No, you idiot. It's prejudiced based on skin color. Which is entirely different than racism. Entirely. Only some bumbling white cornhole like you could be so clueless about it all... probably because you'll never know what it's like to live in a black man's skin. I say probably, because you act a little strange sometimes and there are some large black folk out there you could easily fit into. Cam Newton will probably be one of them in about 5 years...Originally posted by Zool View PostIs the entire situation really any different than people comparing Jimmer Fredette to JJ Redick?
