Maya Rudolph is black?
I came to post the same thing.
"I was only saying bad things about black people in that clip to get laid.
I make the physical comparisons to Michael Vick only because both players seem to rely heavily on their ability to scramble and make defenders miss. If Vick couldn't survive and thrive with greater physical gifts, I don't hold out much hope for Manziel.

Because every time a dog isn't kicked, God starves a child.
So on Monday I happened to listen to an old NPR episode that tried to address the question "How do you makes kids into successful adults". The answer was, more or less, "Make them gritty!"
But they can only base it on financial need. If you're a rich stud athlete, you're not going to get financial aid at all, no matter how talented.
Umm... they don't have scholarships at all. Of any kind. Generous financial aid, yes - but no scholarships.
I've always been a cider drinker; absolutely love it. The introduction of Angry Orchard has been a godsend. The Apple Ginger is delicious, and since it's made by Sam Adams, you can find it EVERYWHERE.
See, I just don't understand your response. Look at my original comment in this thread:
You said: "the reward ... is your master just doesnt fucking kill you THAT DAY"
Jesus fucking christ. No one is claiming that basketball is like slavery. No one. Not a single person has made that claim.
Sane person: "Apples and oranges are both fruits."
It's called drawing parallels. Sterling's mindset is comparable to that of a plantation slaveowner.
I wholeheartedly agree that NBA players might struggle to found and successfully run a league right now. However, neither Sterling nor most current owners had to deal with the struggles of getting the NBA off the ground - they bought into a very successful league with very little risk.
1. While there's obviously loyalty to schools separate from players, the popularity of college teams is strongly correlated with the team's success, which depends largely on the skill of the players. In 2010, Creighton drew 13,000 fans per game. In 2013, it was 17,000. I'm sure that had nothing to do with Doug…
Ok, so that's the status quo, but why should it be? You're missing a fundamental point: these players generate a great deal of revenue for their schools.
