Black Quarterbacks and Championship “W”s

Both the pro and college football championship quarterbacks this year are black and have last names beginning with the letter “W.”

The only other black quarterback to win a Super Bowl also had a last name that started with “W.” That year (1987), the college football champion quarterback’s name also started with W.

He was white and doesn’t white begin with a “W?”

This year’s Super Bowl winning quarterback is Russell Wilson, who went to Wisconsin University. Count the “W’s.”

This year’s college champion’s quarterback is Jameis Winston of Florida State University.

In 1987, the only other time a black quarterback won the Supe, it was Doug Williams of the Washington Redskins.

Both black Super bowl winning quarterbacks played for a “W”ashington team; Wilson representing the state and Williams the nation’s capital.

Steve Walsh, who is white, the 1987 champion college quarterback played at Miami University. An “M” is a “W” turned upside down.
