58 NFL players arrested in 2008.how many were NOT of the skilled position?you don't see that good old farm boy from Nebraska(offensive lineman)getting in trouble.you also don't see that good old farm boy from Nebraska having gold teeth & a mr.t startup kit chain around his neck but you do see him donating to the united way.not all are bad but it's too bad all the best players can't just be like barry sanders & walter Payton.score a touchdown & hand the ball to the ref...class acts but instead you got clowns like mike vick & ocho cinco(he's a sideshow) who take away from the game.too many hot dogs not enough walter paytons.mayweather is a disgrace & would get more respect if he just shut his mouth & boxed.he's an amazing talent but he needs to grow up.he's like that kid who never got enough attention & always has something to prove.

Originally posted by mitruth View PostI don't Follow any of those sports so I can't speak to those athletes. What I will say is that in the states the Baseball, Basketball, and football get the most coverage. For that reason you hear much more about individual athletes in those sports. The reason we hear about the athletes we do is because most of the time they have some notoriety. Generalizations in general are bad. Judge an individual for what they have done.
if **** happens here,
it gets reported.
So, again, with Blacks not being the majority in the sports I presented to you,
where are the stories at?

The Wonderful World Of Mr. Money
There are some sensations that one cannot shake. For me, one of these nagging, under my skin ailments concerns the devout demons which occupy the tired, boring rage of a prize fighter named Floyd Mayweather Jr.
If Floyd were the star of a children's show, his moniker would be Mr. Money.
This character would live in a Rolls Royce the size of New Jersey and he would tell all of his young followers to save their nickles and crimes for a rainy day.
And Whoops. There it is! His time may be coming up, for as many recent athletes have proven, prision waits for no man nor any atrocity. The bigger the mouth, the bigger the possibility that the time in question could be extensive. And Floyd may be short of cash but not short of mouth. If I were Juan Manuel Marquez, I would be contemplating another can''cell'ation with cell being the operative word here.
If the reports out of Las Vegas are even somewhat accurate, Mr. Money was discovered to house firearms in both his vehicle as well as living quarters. This discovery was made after he was cited for threatening the life of a man at a Skating Rink. After that encounter, shots rang through the Vegas night, breaking the ice that could be Floyd's story.
The recent, tragic departure of Vernon Forrest from this human chorus tells all fight fans as well as all fans of simple humanity and humility, that firearms have no place in a civilized society, let alone a society that has a black on black crime rate as large as ours. If one cannot let go of an arsenal out of regard for others, then how about tossing them out of self respect.
The HBO series 24/7 displayed Mr. Money cavorting about his home which children frequented. Wrong Mr. Money. As the late Gangster Joey Gallo once imparted, "I no longer carry a gun. I'm around too many children, they should never know of one.''
Well, it's a mean old world and accidents do happen with reckless frequency.
Ya wanna be a pugilist or a statistic of another kind like the actual ''Pretty Boy'', Floyd?
Have we not seen enough of this star 'struck by a stray' sickness?
Mr. Money returned to the world of pugilism because of a 6 million dollar tax lien against him. His hunger is not that which decorates a fighters desire to excell but a deep rage which haunts him in the same fashion his father does.
Rage, guns and disrespect should not spell champion in a world plagued by a severe need for talent that inspires.
At this moment, I am inspired to see Mr. Money lose his focus, his desperate trash talking and his pride to a deserving model of boxing integrity named Marquez.
Then please Mr. Money. Please, please, go far away until you can respect the gifts you have been given and those who choose to support your lifestyle with their hard earned pay. If not the WWE certainly appears to have an opening for you. With your act, that may be exactly where you should reside.
I love this sport and life too much to see it desecrated again and again by blind rage and ******ity. Peace To All.

are you trying to compare one incident to several?
I never said athletes in those sports didn't commit crimes,
but what I did basically state is that athletes in those sports commit far less crimes than those where Blacks are the majority of the players in response to someone else bringing up the numbers of Blacks in the sports they chose to use an an example.
