CRAZY: During the entire 2006 season, Champ Bailey allowed just four catches on 35 targets.
🤯🤯🤯
Champ also has 10 INTERCEPTIONS and did not allow a touchdown.
Opposing quarterbacks would have been better off spiking the ball than throwing near Bailey.
All-time season 🔒

Some mediocre, insecure white people seem to believe that if you’re not mixed with white, you can’t be brilliant. To cope with that belief, they dismiss exceptional Black people as “arrogant” or invent some other negative narrative like affirmative action and DEI to cope better.
@Fullcourtpass@colincowherd They really hate JB because he’s a smart black athlete. Here comes the slander campaign from the Celtics due to backlash from trading him by fans.
Robert Parish on Jaylen Brown potentially being traded:
“First of all, you don’t get rid of a talent like Jaylen Brown unless he asked to be moved, not to mention the backcourt with he and [Jayson] Tatum is a proven formula. So why would you wanna make that move? I find it disturbing, and it’s uncomfortable, and not to mention I don’t understand — never have, never will — why ownership and management want respect and loyalty from players, but they only give you loyalty and respect when it’s in their best interest.”
