    Do 99% of the players in the league think he's going to want to have sex with them?

    Is this what this is all about?

    ESPN considering the idea of doing away with draft rankings for fear of being
    sued for discrimination by social activists.

    Boom's question was about what if teams didn't draft Sam specifically because of the distraction. That's what I was referring to.

    Collins is not really a viable player anymore -- I thought he could find a spot because big men tend to hang around for a long time (hello, Juwan Howard!), but it's not like there's no reason he doesn't have a spot.

    This grand injustice, an SEC player of the year being ranked in the middle of the draft, and nobody noticed it until two nights ago. Millions of people paying attention, and nobody noticed. And now it's the injustice of injustices.

    A criminal for life??

    He was an adolescent. Story with lots of questions. He served his time- One month to
    be exact. Went on to college and became a good football player. Enough to get a 2nd round rating from the NFL yet went undrafted. If that is not discrimination then I don't know what is.

    As usual LTL you come to these debates uninformed and talk out of your arse.
