essentially, was that Donovan McNabb's 2289 yards passing and 400 some
yards rushing were the product of media-influenced views on racial
equity and not personal accomplishment.
These are impressive stats for any quarterback, and this is not even his
best year. The suggestion that someone holds him in higher regard
because of the color of his skin is absurd, and no one would say
anything like this about a caucasian QB with the same record.
Just my opinion, but I think Limbaugh is confusing his biases about the
media with reality in a disasterously racial way.

I don't think he's a racist either, but he should be smarter
than to
drop a bomb like that and not expect to get harpooned. Besides,
Donovan
McNabb's overrated because the Iggles should be doing a lot
better this
year. He's overrated because he's overrated.
