I didn't have to put words in your mouth. You claimed anyone with an opinion different from yours on this issue was stupid and ignorant. Your words... not mine.

You guys better watch out or Al Sharpton and Jesse Jackson will show up soon. Why don't we try to compare Drew Tate and Byron Leftwich.

Open Discussion. Perhaps you are confusing BP with BN.

Not racist--but the original poster is obviously a strong Smith supporter. All I see is some outside reporter saying Smith and Zwick are both pretty good, but different: I happen to agree with that.

"...and also the running skills of Troy Smith."
This at the least is an uneducated surmise on the writers part; if not a very stupid and ignorant stereotyping of one white and one black quarterback and their styles.
No one (well, Al and Jesse maybe) likes to look for racism as a cause, yet the above statement does seem to say TS runs better than passes, and infers that the other QB passes better than runs...reinforcing the stereotype. Saying the two combined would be perfect just adds to the inference.
Just a dumb, lazy analysis IMHO.

"There's no racism here" = your opinion
"and to suggest it" = someone disagreeing with your opinion on this issue
"is being ignorant and stupid." = Your claim
"Get off it." = What really set me off as it demonstrates your arrogance.

Perhaps you could enlighten me as to how else someone could interpret your post?
