Black QBs vs Black Coaches and GMs

[Awesomeness!!]

Not to keep this issue going (I'm pretty annoyed with it in general) but why does it as if black coaches are just as accepted and welcomed as white coaches, but with Black QBs there is always (and I mean always) some kind of controversy regarding them. Even with black GMs {who, next to the owner have the most power and control over the team) nobody really seems to care that they are black. I had no idea the GM in Baltimore was black. Nobody cared. It wasn't a big deal. Had we hired a black coach, nobody would have cared. If he performed, thats awesome, if not, oh well, but I doubt a big deal would have been made about it. Black QBs on the other hand, who have considerably less control of a team that their coachs or GMS are ALWAYS in the center of a race controversy. It simply fails the logic test. Is it because black coaches are proven? In the last few years black coaches have enjoyed much success, to the point where nobody even talks about their success anymore. Of course, there are the scrubs, but....thats to be expected I guess. You would be surprised to find how many black GMs there are in sports in general, as nobody brings their race to attention. They're accepted. Why can't the same be said for black QBs? And no, I'm not calling you racist, but the fact that this stupid ass race poo keeps getting brought up pisses me off, because I seriously believe 99.9999% of the board consist of good honest people, but even that doesn't prevent the discussion from coming up.

You brought it up and are asking why it keeps coming up?

I stopped reading with the bold part. You are an idiot, plain and simple if you believe that is the case as is Warren Moon. No one has a problem with black QB's they have issues with dual threat QB's coming out and being forced on us fans when we know they aren't going to work out in the NFL.

Guess what? I didn't like The Golden Calf of Bristol or Eric Crouch, both are two of the best Dual theats to ever play college football and both are white. I didn't like Marques Tuiasosopo either. He isn't black.

The game will never change to the point dual threats will succeed full time. QB's must still learn to read defenses, take drops, deliver the ball on time etc.

The Rooney Rule now applies to front office personnel too.

Pretty much every top QB prospect, regardless of color, gets hotly debated for one reason or another.

Newton's not unique in that regard. If you doubt that, just look here.

Perhaps you should have kept reading. I didn't say people didn't like them. I said there is always a controversy for some reason, and I didn't understand it considering most people aren't racist.

Well that's not completely fair, because in reality you can count the Black Coaches, and Black GMs in one hand.

I'll wade in here, I'm just watching golf..

Vick brought it on himself, so did Young and Russell... What issues did those three have before their own problems (Vick had the dogs, Young with the suicide talk and antics and Russell with the horrible play and drugs)

What issues/controversy, did McNair have? How about Leftwich or Garrard? Haven't heard any issues with Josh Freeman. What am I missing?
