| Great story on Jacob Cutrera in Tampa Bay Times today. Not sure it posted yet Posted by StPeteLSU One on one conversation with Cutrera. Pretty intersting and funny. LINK Reply Back to Top |
| did it talk about his one on one tackle of Holliday last week? Reply Back to Top |
| Nope, mostly just human interest story about being a Cajun and his wife being a huge Saints fan with pictures and bobbleheads of Drew Brees in his room when he goes back home. How he misses the best food in the world and how he will go back to LA when he retires Reply Back to Top |
| Glad to see he made it into the NFL, hope that works out for him. I think with The Chief improving our LBer play the way he is, we'll see quite a few ex-LSU LBers in the NFL soon. Reply Back to Top |
| yep, and the racists on here constantly whined about how bad he sucked when he played here, with the unwritten subtext was that he sucked because he is white. They do that every time we get a decent white player, at half back or especially on defense, despite the performances of Jacob Hester, and All Americans Kyle Williams and Craig Steltz. Racists: frick off. Geaux JC. I hope he has a good NFL career. And right about now, how many Americans would be glad to be making the NFL minimum (OT ballas excluded, of course)? I'd say based on SSA Income Statistics about 99.7% of people with a job in this country make less. Reply Back to Top |

| Another one rantards ripped into over the years saying he sucked and was slow. Reply Back to Top |
quote: Funny story on this. Good friend of mine is friends with Cutrera. Said after this play Trindon was running back to the sideline and saw a smirking Jacob Hester. Trindon: "What the hell you smiling about?" Hester: "You know who tackled you right?" Trindon: "Na who?" Hester: "Cutrera" Trindon: "AWWWWWWE frick!" Reply Back to Top |

quote: WTF are you rambling about? I would assume that the majority of the posters on this board are white, so are you saying those white posters are racist because they purportedly bash white players simply because they are white? How can one white guy saying that another white guy sucks soley because he's white be considered racist? OR, am I misinterpreting post in that it's really aimed at the non-white posters?

quote: Hahahaha classic. Although he was pretty slow, the dude was a pretty damn good run stopper. Plus, if memory serves me correctly, I believe he was the strongest player on the team while he was there. This post was edited on 12/9 at 3:24 pm Reply Back to Top |
quote: Everyone assumes the white LB will suck, that's what he is pointing at. It's more stereotyping than racist. You see it here all the time, mainly from white posters. Nothing wrong with it, everyone stereotypes. Reply Back to Top |
| Nice story, but not to knowledgeable about "Cajun" language. Reply Back to Top |
| Way to go Jake!!! He is really looking good!! I live with Jake's cousin....said they got so mad reading bad things about him they just stopped reading. Shame we can't just support all the Tigers, all the time. This post was edited on 12/9 at 6:37 pm Reply Back to Top |

| WNC makes a valid point.... ibleedprplgold a few post later is a PERFECT EXAMPLE!! Do you know how fast Cutrera was timed on Pro Day??? WAY FASTER than Ali Highsmith, Ryan Baker & Stefan Francios....yet you never heard how slow they were! Maybe bec Cutrera was about 3 inches taller than those other guys so his stride was longer?? No thats not the reason! Reply Back to Top |
quote: where you been man? i think racists is too strong of a word to describe this but it is true that the perception is that ALL white people are slow and ALL african americans are fast. many white people have bought into this sterotype and when they see a white RB, or WR they are surprised how such a slow guy got the job. i have seen this hundreds, if not thousands of times. i have no idea how african americans perceive it but i know many white people do.
