Damn right............winning has no color, but NO team wants to deal with drama and B/S....on or off the field.
These are professionals paid a hell of a lot of money...............and they do not employ babysitters...........
Cook sowed his B/S attitudes, and is reaping the result.....red flags... in the NFL.
Race is a bull sh** comment, in a league that is dominated by and overwhelming black.
Your supposition is ridiculous.....
Living in Utah I know a bit more about Bolles than most on here. When his father threw him out he hit the streets with just a few bags of clothes. His lacrosse coach spotted him and decided to take him in. The first thing he did was to lay down some rules. He would go to church, he would pay tithing, and he would get a job. He also made it clear that any screw ups would get him thrown out with no questions asked. After high school he went on a 2 year mission for the Mormon church. After his mission he decided to give football another try and went to Snow College out here in Utah. Notable alumni of Snow include Star Lotulelei, Josh Heupel and Kevin Curtis. While at Snow he became the number one JC recruit in the country and also met his future wife. Utah picked him up from there and he became one of the best tackles in the country. His new Mom had this to say about him last year year in an interview, " A champion picks himself up every time he falls. Every single day I worry about that kid, but I don't worry that he won't pick himself up." Regardless of his race, we should be celebrating the fact that this young man was able to overcome some pretty big obstacles to get to where he is today.
Canes...nobody here likes racism but you made a bad call here. Read something about Bolles life and you will see his issues are way way behind him. He turned his life around years ago. .He went from homeless to becoming a missionary for 2 year to going to a tiny college in Utah and finally just one year at U of Utah. He's a success story man. Maybe years ago you COULD have called him a thug. But not anymore.
Cook's issues are current.
Excuses to FACE reality..............posses's are not welcome in the NFL with all the attendant baggage and B/S.......your excuses are B/S..................
Yo, Flea, what's up dawg??? @Dr.L.ThugU told me to give you a phone number. 1-800-ADULT-ED

Incomplete message , I also asked you to send my regards and well wishes to flea/canescanes1 and his cell mate.
please go kill yourself.
That's a typical white person BullScit response. Just like anything else that is true when it comes to black ppl that white ppl will never truly understand... but #CarryOn
THIS^^^^ + him punching a woman in the face = Not worth a 1st round pick
Has absolutely nothing to do with race
Out of all of your posts that I've read and you've had some whoppers this is by far the the most idiotic one to date. You and others like you who have absolutely NO FIRST HAND KNOWLEDGE or experiences with racism and discrimination in this country kill me when you sit up on your high horse and talk about racism as if it's some abstract boogeyman that doesn't exist. When is the last time you were called or viewed upon as the N word? When was the last time you or someone in your family were told that you couldn't have something or do something because of the color of their skin I.E. employment, housing etc? When the last time you were accosted or had your ass whipped by the police because of the color of your skin? Can we draw a nexus between Dalvin Cook and Garett Boles? Well they both had character issues where Boles was kicked out of FIVE high schools, his parents house and has been involved with drugs and has been locked up and is a first round pick. Cook went to the same high school all four years and has also been arrested but no reports of drug abuse and falls out of the first round and is labeled a thug which is code for the N word. This particular case may or may not be an apples to apples comparison but Racism is in the very DNA of this country always has been and always will be. Blacks have always had to work twice as hard to get half as much in this country and for you to sit in your white privileged world and call us pro blacks who point out racism snowflakes and your favorite and predictable label "liberals" or "flaming liberal" is damn near laughable and if anyone on this board has a problem with what I just said, tough shit! Those who have never experienced racism or discrimination ought to just STFU about the subject because you don't know what you're talking about.

Truthfully I did bust his chops pretty bad a few weeks ago for being a fake German
Correct, 289. What you mentioned is by far his biggest problem. But he also has had problems with his hamstrings. He would often take himself out of games because his hammies would tighten up.
It was actually a bit of a surprise he was taken with the 20th pick with all the problems he has.
It is laughably ignorant to think that one is ignorant for commenting on race simply because the person commenting is not a minority...
The only thing you did was illustrate to the Board how much of a clown you are for spewing bullshit for 5+ pages in a thread, and then claiming a hollow victory off of that bullshit.
It wasn't the only thing that he did, but what got Bolles put in jail was that he vandalized a rival schools football field and he was 18 when it happened. My oldest son played on that field a couple of times and it was a really nice turf field.
Notwithstanding anything else, I am just glad neither he nor any other Seminole was picked in round 1!
Go Canes!
Go Canes!
Laughably ignorant? Get real bruh! Have you ever given birth to a baby? No you haven't so you can't tell a woman what it feels like to go into labor. Same concept.
I think that it's ridiculous for a black person who claims something or someone is racist without any direct evidence to back that claim up, to expect everyone who is white to respect that claim because white people are white and have never personally experienced it.
Not happening with me.
If you wan't me to either read or listen to your viewpoint about why you think someone or something is racist, then that is fine and I'll engage in a quality conversation about it. But people aren't going to dictate the terms of debating the issue of race with me by telling me to shut up because I am white and have never been black and experienced racism. I haven't- but have studied history. I have listened to people who have experienced it. I have read about it, heard interviews from people. At least I come to the table with an open mind- but coming to the table with an open mind doesn't mean the OP can recklessly run his mouth about a unsubstantiated claim of racism and expect every white person on the Board to shut up and not challenge that unsubstantiated claim. You don't get to suppress my right to question something simply because you are black and I am white and thus I have to accept things on face value merely because of who is black and who is white. Doesn't work that way with me.

Im a red head. Less then 3 percent of us in this world.....And I find the term Ginger offensive. i am the true minority so suck it 
In all seriousness though anyone who thinks racism isnt an issue is kidding themselves. It is here and will never go away as long as you have people in this world that feed the beast. The same goes with Bigotry, Religious hatred, Cultural biases, and on goes the list. BUUUUUUUT in this case I tend to believe its about one color.

Never said white people were, but unfortunately white people are typically blamed for most instances of racism....because you know, only whites can be racist against black people.
Are safe spaces for gingers red?Im a red head. Less then 3 percent of us in this world.....And I find the term Ginger offensive. i am the true minority so suck it

We dont need safe spaces because with no soul comes no hurt feelings. We are or were considered several things, A genetic abomination, a curse from the devil, witches, Impure, and ultimately Evil. We were even disposed of as babies.
Cartman said it best when he said that red heads were a disease known as Gingervitis.

My ex-wife is a redhead, all of those descriptions are true.
In your response to the OP, it seemed to me and I'd like to think that I have a pretty good handle on reading comprehension that you seemed to be dismissive of racism in general with your comment about millennials and how they wantonly pull the "race card" just to paraphrase what you initially said. I can't speak for the OP only myself and my comments which is why I qualified my response to your post with my "This may or may not be an apples to apples comparison" as it relates to Dalvin Cook and Garett Boles. I personally could give a fuk about where a Nole gets drafted. We got us a first rounder but I was black before I was ever a Cane fan. My response was more about the existence of racism in general and you seemingly acting as though we use it as a crutch. I can go toe to toe with anyone when it comes to racial disparities in this country. You and I have had a few heated debates on here and if I engage or challenge you I'm coming WITH FACTS to back up my position. As far as you reading and talking to folks about racism, it's not the same as being a victim of it now is it? I could talk to you for weeks about being on aircraft carrier in the Persian Gulf but if you've never experienced it so you're probably not going grasp it just like you could talk to me about going to law school, I've never been so I can only go by what you say and won't grasp that. Are there cases where some people may incorrectly claim racism or claim it to cover up their or the shortcomings of others? Yeah it happens but that certainly doesn't mean that racism doesn't exist and it pisses me off when people act like it doesn't exist especially and more often than not it's people who've never walked a mile in a black man's shoes.
First and foremost, every reasonable person understands that racism still exists in this country, at every level. That is non-debatable, so for me we can begin the discussion at that level and focus on specific issues in a specific area. I do believe that millenials are the generation of entitlement in different respects. I think that a lot of young blacks continue to place the race card too often, improperly equate issues today to the issues of the Civil Rights Movement, and are too quick to summarily label either something or someone racist. Doing so is an insult to a lot of people who have fought for real change in this country and to bring real race issues to the forefront in society so that those real issues can be given the attention to which they are warranted.
The OP simply shoots from the hip here and offers no tangible direct evidence that the cause of certain black prospects falling in the Draft was a result of racism by NFL front offices. He offers innuendo, theory, and rehearsed emotional rhetoric. Such will not suffice when you're trying to make a bona fide major claim that racism was the cause of NFL prospects falling in the Draft.
We all should agree that racism exists in society at every level, including the NFL, but when I see someone play fast, loose, and reckless with the race card in order to inflame the Board and promote a self-serving agenda, I'm going to call the OP out for it. And truth be told, this isn't the first time the OP has thrown this type of thread out on the Board.

Some people find race issues because they look for it everywhere
I got news for you I know people that got to grade him and his post College workouts and they all said he shit the bed.
Sorry he wasn't picked in the first round not because of his skin color but because of his work ethic.
Go ahead and bury your head in the sand and get back on your racism Soap Box.

Let me ask you this as it relates Hurricane football, fuk Dalvin Cook. What do you think or how would you compare Randy Shannon's treatment compared to Al Golden or Alverage Folden Zook as you call him?
ohhhhhhhhhhhhh gawd.......
Here we go again......try tautology........starting out and ending up where you began......(saying the same thing twice in different words).....
smith.........lighten your ass up......this has been replayed, rehashed, and beaten to death............
......come up with more facts........ rather than spurious arguments....
Race does play a huge part in Society.
That being said ,the NFL does not care . It boils down to supply and demand.
As well as potential longevity. There just are not as many 300 lbs men that can run and shuffle their feet to go around.
As far a D Cook I think they will regret not taking him.
No, the Bears are just dumb! A special kind of dumb...Let's not forget they gave (3) picks and moved up (1) spot to take Trubisky when they could have had him anyway.
Really?
Seriously?
I'm not even a McCaffery fan but this is a ridiculous.
Race aside.
Person A
Broke Barry Sanders NCAA all purpose yards record.
Can play running back, slot receiver, and kick/punt returner.
Fumbles once every 243 carries.
Ran faster and jumped higher than person B at the combine.
Person B
Really good explosive back
FSU all time leading rusher.
Only plays running back
Has injury history
Among the 3rd lowest performances at the combine in the 20 yard shuttleand 3 cone drill.
Had multiple run in with the law while at FSU.
Fumbles once ever 63 touches.
Ran slightly slower than person A at the combine.
Your risking a first round pick... you tell me which one you will pick... I'll wait.
