    I'm speechless that you guys are rating blacks.

    This topic started because a white cop shot an unarmed defenseless black man 8 times in the back then planted a taser guy next to him. Then you went to rating.

    Internet or whatever, just disappointing. I truly began at this site because though I was not a journalist, I was a big sports fan and was interested to read opinions of those who have better access to those events and participants.

    No one is "rating" black guys. We're having a little fun at the expense of this board's worst member.

    There's been a few novels' worth of serious discussion about this and every other police shooting in the last year. Most of it was pretty intelligent. I recommend taking a look.

    I went to college for 7 years, speak 2 languages fluently, have been in 6 different countries, 3 times soccer state champ.

    There goes your "worse" member.

    I was also the founder and president of a collegiate social club.

    All that while having a part time job and playing college ball.

    Chase your dreams, Ruben. In fact, log off right now, put in the hard work, fulfill those dreams, and never look back.

    Make it happen.

    I went just for four. And I was never a member of a state champion soccer team. I suck.

    Now that I think about it, you're right. Rating black guys is a pretty ridiculous practice. I mean, they are all playing for second anyway, behind ...
