Sanchez also played at Mission Viejo which is a sin.

But I could do a sub 11 hunerd, so I had options CRACKA!

She later recanted. They just hit it.

Even if he did, that doesnt support the notion that the behavior is any worse than at BYU, does it? I dont get BDB's claims.

her silence now speaks volumes.

It may be; I enjoyed my time at SC.

No, but being from Simi Valley does.

Have you ever dated someone that wasnt white?

I have been on a date with a black guy once. He was the size of five of me and he was, well...sort of aggressive, so I didn't dare go out with him on a second date.

I wouldn't describe myself as a racist. However, to be entirely honest, I wouldn't say that I'm entirely void of racism either. Probably not the races that you're thinking though. I don't believe in treating people any different based on race, but I'd be lying if I said that I don't kind of struggle to avoid some stereotypes that are associated with certain races.

Now you can all think I'm a bad person, but I'm not perfect, never claimed to be, and at least I own the fault on my part. I'm a work in progress.

Once you bust out the "let's look at it as a ratio" analysis, you are grasping at straws.

Why not this stat, which is equally telling: how many LDS players make it to the NFL from BYU and from USC, as a ratio of LDS players on the roster? I would say that BYU, as a ratio, does a horrible job of pushing its players along to the NFL. But SC, well, Havili will make it for sure. That makes their ratio pretty high!

I know you lawyers suffer when it comes to logic, but try to reason with me.

A top 200 recruit at BYU is special. You start at a very early age. You get special attention from coaches. You have to go out of your way to be a bust. You're a three year starter and you go to NFL combine. At USC, all 85 scholarship guys are top 200 recruits. Many never become starters and get churned.

So, as a ratio of top 200 recruits, how many go to the combine is important. % of LDS is not even close to being relevant.

In fact I seperated the service academies and BYU from the rest of d1 football because I think that they are higher in the Fine Young Man quotient than the rest of college football.
