All-White Fantasy Team? (1 Viewer)

[Grimace59]

Racist or not, this would be a fun team to play in madden

 

[Hoss Style]

I see what Hoss was saying. This needs to go.

...and here we go. See, the problem isn't your post, Roboto. It's the fact that someone makes a statement that someone else deems ignorant, so they yell at them about how wrong they are, and then someone else yells back and so on and so on. In threads like this there's too much lack of knowledge to back up much of anything that is said and not enough "You may be right, but let's get back to the subject..."The ignorance tornado is rolling in.On the bright side, you actually gave me an idea, Roboto. I'm going to hop on Madden and build a "6 Foot and Under Team".

 

[need2know]

Not to be racist, but could you draft an all-white FF team that would compete?QB - Rogers, Brady, Brees - take your pick hereRB - Hillis, Woodhead - a bit tougher maybeWR - Welker, Decker, Collie - I must be missing someoneTE - Gronk, Witten, Clark - pretty solid hereK - anyone, reallyThoughts?

why do you care? this is really

 

[mad sweeney]

Also, where would they be drafted in a 12-team standard league? You may need to reach in rds. 2-3 for the WR and RB.

Austin Miles, Ryan Matthews are half whitey..does that count?

Not according to Public Enemy.

 

[Concept Coop]

And if Manning was healhty, Collie would be a best #2.

 

[andyhdz]

Lineups?If you have a lot of flex options, I think you can do it. Witten/Gronk in PPR would be money.

what if they were half white and half something else? Or would they not qualify in your book because of the "one drop" policy.

 

[UnderDawgs]

It puzzles me how easily some people can get offended.

Fact is, some races are better than others at some things. How many good black swimmers are there? Or cyclists? The answer is close to zero for both. For whatever reason, their physiology isn't conducive for those activities. Same goes for Basketball and some positions in Football for white people. That's just how nature works.

Some asses are better than others at some things too.

roboto if you don't think this is rascist you need some help

I think you could make it work in a start 2 QB league.

best answer in the whole thread.

 

[Banemorth]

My GOD people can take any simple question and make it taboo. The question isn't are whites better than blacks or vica versa the question was could an ALL WHITE TEAM be competitive. My answer was no. To focus on only white players would severely restrict the talent pool and you'd take away a lot of the best players in the game.

Some people just *need* to be dramatic.

and in comes the ignorant posts on race. Stereotyping everyone in a nice little simple 5th grade box. Next thing you'll break out the cats and dogs analogy.

 

[andyhdz]

for those that don't think there is anything wrong this this thread crack open a history book for a change and think outside the small confines of fantasy football. Or better yet let's dig up George Preston Marshall, former owner of the Redskins and ask him to pick an all white FF team. He did it for years until Kennedy forced him to integrate. Oh but that's right this doesn't exist anymore will be the standard comeback.

Way to compare two completely unrelated things to try and make your point. Great stuff.

feel the swoosh of air over your head? Or did you not get that statement either.

No. They clearly get their talent and abilities from their black halves.

good post. I'm done with this one.

In a 2 QB PPR league, you could very easily field a pretty awesome squad

Brady

Rodgers

Hillis

Woodhead

Welker

Jordy

Amendola

Witten

Gronkowski

Good lord this is going down hill quickly. Even faster than I predicted! Sarcasm always helps in a thread already dripping with ignorance!If this were "Fantasy Arguments" I'd have struck gold with this draft pick.

RB - Kuhn for the TD vulturing.WR - Jordy Nelson

Gerhart could be another RB option in late rounds.Do they have to be all white? or would Miles Austin qualified?Hartline at WR too. Is Tony Gonzalez to brown for you at TE?

 

[IvanKaramazov]

My #1 rule of fantasy football is always to draft at least one white WR for good luck. Thank God for Don Beebe and Ed McCaffrey.

 

[jhexel]

QB - Brady/RodgersRB - Hillis/Woodhead/KuhnWR - Welker/Amendola/NelsonTE - Witten/GronkowskiI don't see how this is racist.

So...who's gonna have the ballz to post the opponent?

LOL. Does Darren Mcfadden qualify for your luck of the irish pick?

I miss Eazy Ed - but Decker sure did the number proud last week.

 

[Ignoratio Elenchi]

If you were picking in the middle of a 12-team PPR league:

1.06 Aaron Rodgers

2.07 Peyton Hillis

3.06 Wes Welker

4.07 Jason Witten

wouldn't be a bad start. If you could flex a QB or 2-3 TE I think you could field a team that would be a strong contender.

Depends if you use the "one drop of blood" rule. Or maybe you could award them only 50% fantasy points.

This ignores opportunity and participation in a given sport. Cycling and swimming are two expensive sports to participate in which filters out lower economic strata. However, white participation in football is not lacking. Anyway, your statement "that's just how nature works" is a bit overbroad.
