"Area racism was the proportion of Google searches containing the “N-word” in 196 designated market areas (DMAs)"
Do you know who uses the N word the most? Black people. Do you know where the population density of black people is the highest? The south.
But nice to know based on this "scientific" study that the south is infinitely less racist than the northeast.
Be honest, you've never been to the south (Atlanta doesn't count).

Yes, the SEC didn't look as dominant or as polished as it has in the past. A big part of that is coaching because the talent is there. The SEC will regain its dominance of the past when these new coaches get settled down. A big part of the coaching problem in the SEC is caus d by Saban in my opinion. Too many fan bases and administrations and boosters have become restless seeing what Saban has done and pull the trigger too fast firing coaches in some cases. A lot of good coaches don't want to come to the SEC to compete with him causing schools to hire less than qualified candidates

The only thing this tells me is that there are no black people in North Dakota, Northern Maine, or Alaska.Passion said:

Buzz off with this nonsense. Outside of Stanford, Northwestern, ND, Vandy, and a few others, EVERYONE offers the same players. Are PAC12 schools better, on average than SEC schools related to academics? Of course. But that doesn't mean the athletes are held to a higher academic standard. ESPECIALLY regarding entrance requirements.Passion said:
First of all, you're only showing how stupid you are if you think people in the south know football better than anyone else. There are two reasons the sec has been successful at football: 1) fertile recruiting ground; and 2) zero emphasis on academics.
In the Southeast, college football matters more. It just does. That's not a slight, the interests are just different. USC has one of the most front running fan bases in the history of the Americas. Hell you guys have had like 2-3 sellouts in 3 years. We have 100k at practice. We don't have the population density to have access to a lot of professional sports, so college football is top priority.Passion said:
Engineering degree from bama? LOL. So let me call on your prestigious engineering degree. What sense does it make to put so many of these structurally unsound dwellings in a region known for such extreme weather?
But it sure is fun painting millions of good people with the broad brush of 'dumb redneck' ain't it?

Attended a wedding in mobile, alabama in 2013. Driving just outside the city we spotted a bumper sticker which read: "If we knew then what we know now, we would've picked our own damn cotton."Secfans said:

Did you read the rest of the study? About black mortality rates and the incidents of racism? It isn't just about using the "N" word. Jesus.
Look at which states are trying to roll back the voting rights act.
The fact that you would say, "Atlanta doesn't count," pretty much makes my argument. -

Oh you saw a racist person. I guess we're all racists then.

The map that resulted from the study shows the northeast to be a whole lot more racist than the south. So I'm not sure what your point is. There aren't any black people in the middle of nowhere America or the northwest. This study just coincides where black people are. It's not scientific at all.
Voting rights act? Next you're gonna tell me voter ID laws are racist... -
Black people use the "ga" ending while racist whites use the "ger" ending. There is a difference and I'm sure the study took that into accountSecfans said:

1) I'm not sure that it did take that into account. 2) Black people use both more than even racist white people use the one. I live in Alabama. I'm 100% certain I know racists, am FB friends with racsts. I have never in my life seen someone I know who is white say the N word on social media. Like ever.montyfranklyn said:

And if we're throwing anecdotes around, the only person I've heard use the word freely was a white ultra liberal snowbird.
The study is trash, just like UW's schedule.

HAHAHAHAHA from the study
Results from our study indicate that living in an area characterized by a one standard deviation greater proportion of racist Google searches is associated with an 8.2% increase in the all-cause mortality rate among Blacks
Those also just happen to coincide with areas of higher poverty, more crime, and less access to healthcare and steady employment.
But lets ignore history's most obvious driving factors in mortality rates "because racism." Deer lowered this is why Trump won.
