Seriously? What would lead you to believe something like that? I have not seen anything "racial" in determining things like this in many years. The NFLPA wouldnt allow for it either without a whole lot of fanfare.

Certainly it seems the majority of guys that get in trouble are black, but then again the majority of the players are black, so that would just follow logic. On top of that, most suspensions are pre-determined with only those violating personal conduct issues up for review.

I mean the harshest suspension this last year was Roethlisbergers, and he is as cornbread as it gets.
