Vince Young is a Black Dude

by Doperbo on Jun 9, 2009 1:03 PM CDT in Texas Longhorns and Other Football

AP- A late breaking story from Houston surfaced this earlier week that appears to confirm the rumors height= that the current Tennessee Titans backup quarterback, Vincent Young, is secretly African American. Allegations of suspected blackness have followed the troubled young quarterback throughout his career; his jocularity, frequent idiomatic usage of the word "dog", the alleged treatment of the playbook as if it were the Voynich manuscript, indeed there has long been a consistent buzz around Young that he may, in fact, be a black dude. Multiple NFL sources have speculated directly on the subject in print media and blogs. To date none have been confirmed, but that may have changed in the last few weeks. Said Adam Schefter of the NFL Network recently "If you spend a lot of time with Vince, really get to know him, put in the effort, you almost get the feeling he's not Jewish. Tiki and I were just talking about it the other day. Not a big tsimmes, but it's hard to explain."

Teammate LenDale White refused to comment, stating "I ain't saying he is, or he ain't, you know. Vince is Vince" but others are starting to question as well. From a recent interview with Jeff Fisher, Young's current head coach:

[Chris Mortenson] "What black powder was?"

[Fisher] "No. A buck snort."

Telling.

Perhaps more damaging is the video footage recently released which confirms that Young, among other things, is capable of dancing and verbally rhyming to a rhythmic set cadence. When asked about the incident Young confirmed that he was indeed possessed of these self-termed "angry skills", then proceeded to extoll his support for one William Dennis, a known African American and purveyor of the gangster genre of music, which is known to cause susceptible River Oaks teens to attempt to install bass cannons in their dad's Audis without permission.

Young's response to these allegations remains a mystery, mainly due to translational issues, so we've attempted to render them in graphic format for clarity.

It's not clear what this means, nor how Young will cope with this most recent setback; efforts to encourage him to listen to John Mayer or enroll in Cotillion have been rebuffed according to insiders. Not all in the Titans camp have given up on him though, owner Bud Adams released a statement citing "his continued support for Mr. Young..." Said Adams, "I also support the ghetto boys, and all the ghetto children, the little guys Elvis sang about. I'm proud of Vince's community efforts..."

Whether or not Vince can gain back the trust of his fans remains to be seen.

That’s a wicked awesome graph, Doperbo.

Vince doesn’t have to do anything but stay black and die.

“That’s a wicked awesome graph, Doperbo.”

This needs to be (and in fact has been) repeated. I am in lack of sleep loopy uncontrollable laughter pain.

Also, I had to google the Voynich manuscript and tsimmes (even though I am kinda Jewish). Word.

I can honestly type that I don’t know what in the fuck this post is supposed to mean. I prefer the doperbo that writes treatises on the secondary coaching wizardry of Duane Akina.

The jay-z reference is strong.

I’d attribute the graph but it was emailed to me. We should track down the creator.

CTJ- It’s satire, or at least it’s supposed to be. Cutler whines himself into a trade, Leinart’s out increasing the southwest’s illegitimate kid count, yet it’s news (in the perjorative sense) every time Vince hangs out in a club. Oh goodness! Lawks a mussy! He knows a Geto Boy!

I find it slightly racist and very silly. That’s the only point.

I’m presently working a deal to get Vince on our team. I just can’t decide who to dangle out there as trade bait. I’m thinking Carrot Top.

I actually understood this one better than some of Doperbo’s other stuff which routinely flies over my head. Despite my IQ I am a moron sometimes.

I agree and it is getting ridiculous with regards to Vince. He is immature and petulant while Cutler and Favre are tough gamers? Gee, wonder why the difference?

I don’t know if that specific one is from there, but you can find tons of funny graphs like that at www.graphjams.com

Simple white boy Longhorn laughing my ass off….How the hell did we let a black dude be our quarterback—you sure cannot tell by looking at him….so freakin sneaking. How did this happen?

Doperbo-I thought you were taking a break this summer. I was just about to sing Eli & Peyton’s favorite song (Summertime…and the livin’ is easy-Louis Armstrong) and then I come across this article.

Its racist, but its also a grand display of free speech. Listen to any number of songs by “Public Enemy” or “NWA” and you’ll understand. Its all the same, just a different venue, that’s all.

Whatever happened to good music? Smiling Faces by The Undisputed Truth, MacArthur Park by Donna Summer, A little less converation by Elvis. All I ever hear is racist/mysoginist rap music blaring out of car sound systems. Geto Boys-music to some-alot of loud noises to others. Don’t get me wrong. Some rap is exceptionally good. I went to a rap party in North Philly once and there was this tremendous (400 pounder,easy) black woman rapping. The crowd was mostly white. She took the place by storm. Jemima rapped for over 20 minutes and the room was still beggin’ for more!
