I cant accept this post as anything but racist.
Eddie George is one of the good men in the game. He grew up poor and his single mother took him to an academy to straighten up his attitude. He straightened up and not only that, after he graduated, he attended The Ohio State University becoming a champion for causes in the community and donating his time and presence in hospitals. Not only is he now a well spoken individual, he is loyal. His loyalty was not returned by the Titans and they separated ways.
Your comment speaks volumes about your pre-conceived notions of black athletes in the game. Perhaps next time you would like to research player's personality and motives before you start throwing out racist remarks?
Ditto. Eddie is a very good, positive role model and an example of what young black men should strive to become. He's not a 'dumb jock'.
he is loyal. His loyalty was not returned by the Titans and they separated ways.
That I have to disagree with. There were a lot of shots across the bow on both sides. There were also concilliatory statements by both sides. They almost worked something out, but in the end, did not. Ultimately business is business. Everyone in the NFL knows that. There is no such thing as sentimentality.
Eddie George is a fine man, who gives many hours of his free time to worthy causes. I've never been a Cowboy's fan, but I will be rooting for Eddie. And lest we forget....ONCE A BUCKEYE, ALWAYS A BUCKEYE!!!!!!
Go Eddie!!!!!

It wasn't meant as racist or against Eddie George in any way. I am guilty of a smartass flippant remark that reflects how I feel at times. There is NO loyalty in the workforce anymore from either side. It may be the Titans right to pay him less than he deserves, but that don't make it right for what Eddie has done for them. He deserved better treatment from T, I just worded it crudely.
Thanks for posting that. I totally agree. George is definitely one of the good guys with a terrific work ethic and a single mother who cared enough about him to get him help before he went completely down the loser road.
