I can't believe I have to write this....

To the person who posted the racial slur in the comment section of the Green Bay Packer's Nickel package post. Football player is a label that transcends all other labels: race, ethnicity, religion, political affiliation, etc. If there was ever a place that most embodies Dr. Martin Luther King's "I have a dream" speech it is on the football field. You are judged by your play. I have said many times to my players "Whoever you are, put it on film.". That is how football players are defined. I have erased your comment. I have changed the settings on comments to insure that every comment is now approved before going up on the site.

  1. Well spoken. Its time to let things like race be an issue somewhere else.
