    Locker lacks the intelligence to play QB. Simple fact.

    Good QB's are typically very smart as well as accurate. Locker is missing the two most important skills needed to be a QB.

    But you guys are missing his intangibles!!!

    When has actual talent ever been more important than a person's desire?

    Don't hate, APPRECIATE!!

    Contrary to the news headlines of the day, I believe that racism in this country is far less prevalent than what is depicted in the MSM. That being said, from the moment Locker was selected #8 overall, I believed Tennessee felt like they were getting a great athlete and someone immensely marketable to the Southern Good Ol Boy demographic. He fits the mold of a white country boy who is also a great athlete and very likable. This is 100% speculation on my part, but I bet that some scouts privately objected to drafting him so high but were overruled by Titans ownership. That's just my instinct talking, I could be way off.

    Easy for a white man who was born on third base and gets a free pass into the good ol boy club to say racism is less prevalent.

    Actually, I think it's apparent that in the last 100 years each generation less biased than the previous.

    I think Locker lacks the intelligence to be the wedge buster on kickoffs.

    And you are way off. The shit that I've heard and that has been said around the country is mind blowing. One small example - I have an uncle that lives in Chelan. Well, a kid at a local elementary school got into trouble because he said his dad expressed a belief about what should happen to the ni__er Obama.

    Several high schools in the south still have separate proms (rent the movie "Prom Night in Mississippi").

    Two different friends of mine that attended the University of Virginia and Duke University talked about the "N" word being used frequently at parties when only whites are around.

    If you don't think a lot of the messages being said by "conservative" commentators about Obama are thinly-veiled racist comments, then you're blind or you're not being honest. Comments like "take our country back," and "he's not one of us" are pretty obvious. There are plenty of websites you can access if you want more examples.

    The last thing I will say is that a white man sitting in the state of Washington is in no position to judge racism in the rest of the United States.

    Yes. There are racists. Derek is taking about in general as compared to years past. I even heard a black woman called a Hispanic man a Creepy Ass Cracker. I guess that proves it.

    Yet you over look th new black panthers and overt hatred of whites by many blacks.

    Look at yhe big picture. Yes, there was a white prom... And what happened. The kids called bullshit.

    Of course things have gotten better, especially since the Civil Rights Act of 1964, and the Voting Rights Act (which is now under attack again).

    I'm not overlooking anything. "Prejudice" goes both ways, but has gotten better both ways. Attacks on whites by blacks yelling "this is for Trayvon" are bullshit, and the perpetrators should be punished. The New Black Panthers are dipshits, and hatred in either direction is stupid and wrong. But "racism" requires power, and whites are not the victims of societal racism; Blacks & Hispanics are.

    Regarding the movie, which kids called Bullshit on it? Certainly not all of them. It was only the kids at the mixed prom that called bullshit, and even some of them were tempered in their criticism. That the mixed prom even took place is a sign of progress, but the existence of the white only prom shows we still have a long ways to go.
