I'll take "Tell me you're a racist without telling me you're a racist" for 500 Alex

If I post full lyrics to some choice  rap songs on here, will mods remove them?

If I post Elvis, Nat King Cole, or Chuck Berry lyrics will my post be removed? If disliking the vulgarity of rap music and the culture that some sub-categories within rap props up, I guess I may be racist.

But I'm here to tell you, this doesn't fit the definition of racism, bigotry, or even discrimination. 

Is it possible that Cam could be distracted in practice while listening to music, which is why it seems like he has issues throwing guys open and anticipating routes in games? Unlikely considering the noise level at games would be similar to what you'd have with headphones.

Does saying "rap" music make dude racist? No. What would make him racist is if he thought that listening to a genre typically associated with white people wouldn't be a problem.

That was basically a KKK meeting at the QB. They knew he was going to be the face of the NFL with a SB win and just couldn't stand it. Using Whistles like you're too young for that call or running QBs don't get those calls.

Haha what? I agree the calls were BS and he was treated differently but a KKK meeting? Hahaha! They hated him because he made plays and celebrated while partying on the field as superman. I loved the hell out of it because he was with us and he is a good dude. Some people didn't but hardly a KKK meeting. If that were the case EVERY player of color who made an impact would be held down. Talk about reaching for straws here jesus man.

Bro, I am clueless as to what any of this means. I guess it was a joke that flew over my head. All good. 

It's a term they use here for racists. I laugh every time I see it due to having a neighbor who is afriacn american that drives an F150 he customized. I guess my neighbor is racist too....? Makes no damn sense and is a stupid generalization as dumb as the generalizations they are supposedly always on the hunt for. I don't like trucks myself but if I had to have one I would probably opt for a silverado. I don't think they look too bad. Much prefer an SUV. I drive a toyota 4runner and I suppose it's "bad" too according to the tinder box mafia.

My god. Everything is racist on this message board. Unless you're black, then you can say whatever the hell you want about other races without any repercussions. Don't believe me? A dude literally said "f-150 owner to a poster" How is that not racist? check the Tinderbox too. It's just a mob of bullies who verbally abuse you and call you racist for not agreeing with them.  No wonder why this message board has slowly been dying. Remember the glory days 5-10 years ago? Its seen as a joke my most people around town. The owner (Zod) just lets it happen and is completely out of touch with at least half the fanbase. Self sabotage at its finest. Quite funny.  Ban me? Sure. Call me a racist? Go ahead.  Like I give a shiit. The Panthers are a joke of a team too. David Tepper will run this team to the ground. Sam Darnold as our QB? Just lol. I'd rather have Jameis Winston. We'll win 7 games at most

Getting called a racist based on the vehicle I drive. 😂 I would much prefer an SUV but my wife and I are rehabilitating an historic home and there are times I need the bed to haul.

I certainly didn't mean anything racist about it. I would appreciate if you wouldn't put that in someone's head considering he was talking to me, and not you.

I'm just not a Ford fan. So rest assured, I'm not calling you a racist, as some other clueless person attempted to explain what *I* meant. 

God Bless

poo.

Is owning an F-150 a problem now? I'm in a middle class neighborhood and am one of probably three or four white families while the other 85% are POC. 

There are at least seven or eight F-150 owners in my neighborhood and I'm the only white guy that owns one.

Guess we are all racist...

For owning a truck...to pick up sticks and move things and stuff...

    • Yeah and I am doubtful he can offer that consistently. I don’t have many years left at my age and in my view we have wasted two and this whole exercise with him was always a three year minimum.  I am out on that with a guy I don’t believe in, and never believed in, it has sucked. To me it is a costly detour off the right track. Years.    But I am not so rigid that I can’t see excellence. He needs to display it though, consistently before I change my outlook.  
    • No, when I said rage, I meant rage, which only applies to certain fans on this board. Your timeline of trying to assess whether he is the future or not is really tied to the discussions surrounding his second contract. If this team is going to commit to some monster contract while he has shown nothing but glimpses of brilliance would be deservedly worrisome, so the clock is genuinely ticking for him to settle into something resembling his final form. Perhaps a best case scenario is that he plays well, the team succeeds, but he does so with a more limited role that makes the rest of the league view him as a game manager, and his second contract value reflects that. Then he continues to improve and becomes a bargain comparatively while not handicapping the team around him, and we enter an era of consistent championship competitiveness that the fanbase has craved for decades and has never really experienced before. But that requires many, many things to go right and for Bryce himself to facilitate that if he ends up being the quarterback of the future.
    • Exactly. And the flame throwers as well, get location benefits from not going all out. But they have it in reserve.  Not sure how much Greg had but he was an artist.  There was a YouTube I came across last year or maybe even 2023 and I don’t how to even find now but it had two NFL QBs I want say one was Carr from the Raiders but I don’t really remember  The point of it is they stood side by side throwing identical distances to identical targets. Radar gun was used.  They threw the normal effort (not all out) and it was measured etc. Then they were asked to throw their ‘fastball’. They were missing and most often they were missing high. It demonstrated the same principle.    edit: and applying that to arm strength, give me the guy that doesn’t need max effort to have good velocity. The margins are so narrow with less velocity in tne NFL the defenders can Close on it and this is a league where they value down to the 100th of a second level. It is that tight
