Back in the summer Manziel told me that the two quarterbacks he most looked up to were Mike Vick and Vince Young. Look out, cross-racial sports comparison alert. You ever heard a white quarterback point to two black quarterbacks as his inspiration? I haven't. Beware, you CANNOT compare guys of different races. At least not in the modern football vernacular.

Vegas needs to start a betting line on the over/under that manziel lasts in the league. I think three years should be it. I'd take the under on that.

This dude will flame out in some kinda blaze of glory way doing ropes of coke and 20 hookers at a time.

Probably. But you ever hear white QBs saying they looked up to Warren Moon or their trying to model their game after him? I havent.

Its not that big of a deal tho, this guy just felt like starting a racial dispute

Probably nothing to do with race. He might just hate dogs and love strip clubs

I always find it funny when ESPN analyst overlook athletic white QBs. Specifically Andrew Luck.

True. So much was made of the the 2 super athletic lefty QBs.

And all during last year's playoffs, talking heads kept drilling into our heads that Russell Wilson looked up to and models his game after Drew Brees.

Like someone said earlier, this guy is just trying to start shite.

I was listening to the radio late last night. A radio host got agitated when he was brought up he used the term "fame ho" to describe him
