Anyone want to do a racial breakdown of this list? I bet it confirms Rush's Crips and Bloods remark. Of course, anyone who follows the NFL knows his comment was right.

The only two that I know are white are Eric Steinbach and Rob Reynolds. There’s about 5 or 6 on the list I don’t know about, but the others are black. It’s funny seeing Reynolds and Santonio Holmes on the list as they are two of my least favorite Ohio St. players over the last decade. They were both thugs in college. Steinbach’s issue I think was an isolated incident because he’s been a model citizen with the Browns and one of their few good players. Sorry for rambling a bit.
