I don't hate, I hope he has a promising career in the NFL. I've just seen this happen too many times. Life in the NFL goes very fast for most ...Especially running backs. They tend to have a short life span.

He's 5 foot 9 and 210 pounds. Plays with all heart but he's going to get knocked out by a linebacker that has 50 pounds on him. It's physics and probability. Until then he's a kid living his dream, good for him.

Why do white liberals hate their own race so much?
I am white and I am rooting especially for Skattebo to succeed. He’s like one of only two white NFL running backs I’ve heard of in the last 25 years. That alone is something to root for.
Liberals don’t hate white peopke, they hate bigots

It's funny.
The protestors in these big cities (which have population makeup of mostly people of color) are almost all middle-age white liberal women.

Soros-paid agitators is my guess.

You must know, then, that the above-named gentleman whenever he was at leisure (which was mostly all the year round) gave himself up to reading books of chivalry with such ardour and avidity that he almost entirely neglected the pursuit of his field-sports, and even the management of his property; and to such a pitch did his eagerness and infatuation go that he sold many an acre of tillageland to buy books of chivalry to read, and brought home as many of them as he could get. But of all there were none he liked so well as those of the famous Feliciano de Silva’s composition, for their lucidity of style and complicated conceits were as pearls in his sight, particularly when in his reading he came upon courtships and cartels, where he often found passages like “the reason of the unreason with which my reason is afflicted so weakens my reason that with reason I murmur at your beauty;” or again, “the high heavens, that of your divinity divinely fortify you with the stars, render you deserving of the desert your greatness deserves.” Over conceits of this sort the poor gentleman lost his wits, and used to lie awake striving to understand them and worm the meaning out of them; what Aristotle himself could not have made out or extracted had he come to life again for that special purpose …

In short, he became so absorbed in his books that he spent his nights from sunset to sunrise, and his days from dawn to dark, poring over them; and what with little sleep and much reading his brains got so dry that he lost his wits. His fancy grew full of what he used to read about in his books, enchantments, quarrels, battles, challenges, wounds, wooings, loves, agonies, and all sorts of impossible nonsense; and it so possessed his mind that the whole fabric of invention and fancy he read of was true, that to him no history in the world had more reality in it.

True. White liberals have the greatest out-group bias of any group in America, something unheard of in other groups. They decided that makes them more moral than other whites, but they also believe in-group bias is fine for all but white people. I think they're the only group in the world with out-group favoritism, well except when it comes to which neighborhood they want to live in and who they want sitting next to their kids in class.

Good luck to Skattebo but as a Saints fan I don't even know who he plays for and I have other things to worry about. Plus we have a big game this week.

8 years is typical for a RB

What are you on about? He's good and gritty. He is exactly what he was coming out of college. Who is rooting against him for being white?

Why does everything have to be a damn political argument? Do you get some release from posting this stuff on a message board? For Pete's sake, we should all give it a rest.
