No sir. I promise you it can get a lot more racist than that. But the Milroe situation is a clear dichotomy to the Sanders case. Nobody expected Milroe to be picked ahead of Sanders in the draft. But by all accounts he was very likeable and mature in his interviews and Sanders was the opposite. Maybe there is something to that "he's well spoken" business.

I always wondered about this. Complementing a black guy for speaking proper English without a lot of slang shouldn’t be taken as a negative.

Its a compliment for anyone to be well spoken. Do you think all white people are well spoken? Im here to assure you that a whole bunch of them are dumb as shite and can hardly speak proper english.

Met him great dude

100% agree. You can tell he’s from a good family. I’d absolutely take him over sanders for that reason. He can be coached up. Sanders is uncoachable.

When the demand for racism outstrips the supply. This is a good example of that. Keep looking for racism everywhere. You will find it in your own mind anyway.

If Milroe could play against LSUs defense every game in the NFL he’d be a lock for GOAT hall of famer NFL QB.

How do you know? Do you know Milroe personally?
I’m not trying to take up for him but I find it kinda funny how fans think they know everything about a player when they really don’t know shite and just speaking negative about him because he plays for a certain team.

I hate Alabama, but every time I see him interview….this kid ALWAYS has a smile on his face. Everything that I’ve read about him is that he is a genuinely great person.
The polar opposite of Hurts who comes off as about a big a prick as possible every interview I see him in with always a sour expression on his face every time.

Jalen Hurts? Most people really like him.

Where do you see a bunch of Jalen Hurts hate coming from? What examples of him being a dick have you seen?

I think there was just major dram this year on the Eagles.
Eagles' Jalen Hurts, A.J. Brown say they're 'good' amid off-field drama
quote:
After displaying signs of internal discord following their Week 14 win over the Carolina Panthers, Philadelphia's key figures presented a united front Wednesday. Brown told reporters his comments on Sunday weren't about Hurts specifically, but about the team's passing limitations, and Hurts followed suit by stressing "we're good," which is also how Brown categorized their relationship.
None of this would have been a major talking point this week had another Eagle, veteran Brandon Graham, not spoken publicly on the matter and suggested there was a legitimate conflict between Hurts and Brown. Graham later attempted to double back on his comments, admitting fault for mischaracterizing the situation, but that clearly wasn't enough to set the record straight.
Graham's comments
quote:
"I don't know the whole story, but I know that 1 (Hurts) is trying. 11 (Brown) could be a little better with how he responds to things. They were friends, but things have changed," Graham said on SportsRadio WIP. "And I understand that because life happens. But (on) the business side, we got to make sure we don't let the personal get in the way of the business.
"And that's what we need to do better."
Now, AJ Brown is involved and he's quite combustible, but Hurts is reportedly kind of an a-hole and some see him as a fake leader. I think one of the issues is that he's not that good but carries himself as he is that good. The Eagles basically took the ball out of his hands this past year to win the title and guys like AJ Brown know this and it's hurting him and I don't think Hurts acknowledges this and that's the underlying conflict.

I remember that story. Two teammates didnt get along because a WR wanted the ball thrown to him more often.
But that is a far cry from saying Hurts acts like a huge prick every chance he gets. AJ Brown can act like he did more to help the Eagles win than Hurts, but i dont think most people would agree with him.
Hurts is definitely not the most talented QB of all time, but i have never got the sense that he carries himself that way. He's no Cam Newton. I dont remember much show boating from Hurts.
I just think it's an odd take that Hurts is a huge prick. As far as NFL QBs go, he seems rather mild.
Who would be the most regular (not a prick) QB in the NFL? I dont think ive ever met a big time QB on the college or pro level that didnt put off some degree of dickhead vibe.

Dude would be a 2 time super bowl MVP if not for a holding call. But yeah, not that good.

Hell I didn’t want Shedeur ANYWHERE around the Saints. That situation WILL BE a fricking shitshow. But that doesn’t mean that I don’t hope that he grows from the setback and becomes a better person/leader.

Doesn't always infer grammar integrity. Being able to speak in a way that doesn't indicate you're a spoiled, arrogant brash arse is also "well spoken", which Mr. Sanders apparently is not.
