    Yet when a black quarterback in college football does well we have the same discussion.
    A) Cam Newton, Vince Young or whoever is going to be good because of his running ability
    B) He's going to suck because he can't pass and makes poor decisions.
    C) Look at all the shitty black quarterback busts that came before him

    Same shit different toilet
    At the risk of sounding racist (i most certainly am not), this is a point I really hadn't thought about before, and at least carries some validity.

    Difference between Fredette and Redick is the handle. Redick was a glorified chucker, Fredette can actually run a team and beat guys off the dribble.

    Spargament- There's a double standard. It's real popular and open to talk about how Ferdette isn't "athletic enough" (Black enough) to play in the NBA. But it's not popular to talk about how Vince Young, Cam Newton or others don't have the mental agility to play NFL quarterback because they are black. You get some NAACP types who think that means all black people are dumb or something so they raise a shit storm but nobody said that.
