Because his story pretty much was the classic case of the black quarterback's predicament.

You do everything possible in college (i.e. winning the Heisman, winning a national championship, going undefeated), and yet a BUM like Heath Shuler goes in the first round (3rd pick no less)...

Still SMDH on that one. Washington had that pick and it was lining up that we could of had Charlie Ward, favorite college player at that time, under center.

THAT is the story of the Black Quarterback in a nutshell. he just chose to play in the NBA instead of "go to Canada" like Warren Moon.

That phrase, "go to Canada" has a very specific meaning for black quarterbacks and black NFL fans...

Still reading the article. It is great to have this, though.
