How can anyone still be shocked with stuff like this? It's OK to be racist toward white folks now. It has turned me off to all pro sports, and with the new rules regarding NCAA players getting paid, I am pretty close to being done with college sports as well.

I like UFC because they don't make shite, nor should they. Professional athletes who make millions of dollars because they can run fast or jump high is the dumbest fricking thing I have ever heard of, but idiots who have more money than sense pay thousands of dollars for season tickets and allow it to happen.

Until blacks stop being racist, racism will never go away! Fact!

It's always nice to see people that don't want race to be an issue then specifically make it an issue.

I mean black QBs are definitely the way to go on college, that’s pretty clear. Not sure why you guys are bringing up the NFL, how many titles did Brady win at Michigan?


That's the biggest bunch of shite lies. They are bringing up the NFL because Earl said NFL too. fricking learn to read.

Ya know, some stories are written and some interviews veer a certain way, looking for responses these days.

Reporting sucks these days. I worked in that business for over 25 years and it is a shell of what it was. It had the smartest people doing actual reporting - not looking to create stories for clicks. People then would have buried this part of his interview - in respect.

Wow! Tua has overcome a lot.

Coming to new country.
Learning a new language.
Being an African-American in a country full of white people.

Helluva running back, back in his day but Earl Campbell is pretty much an idiot.

Not anymore. Journalism has become a complete shite show attracting only people who love to talk about other people writing for people who love to talk about other people.

I no longer do the news. If it's important enough, someone will tell me about it.

Leaving aside how absolutely ridiculous his statement is, Tua isn’t even black.


He's an "Other Pacific Islander".

He’s a douche but he’s the only reason they weren’t 5-7 last year and 2-5 this year so far

As a person Earl Campbell is one of the most respected men in the state of Texas, as for his views on black vs white QBs in college football he's quite confused, a lot like African Americans who think Barack was a fine Pres. Preferring someone with the same skin color as yours is stupidity at the highest level.
