Well, Donovan McNabb is controversial once again. It's not the "Black on Black" crime. This time it's black versus white. And people are going to be pissed!
He says that Black Quarterbacks get criticized more often than white Quarterbacks. Some might argue that the Manning brothers and Rex Grossman, Joey Harrington, and Chad Pennington might be criticized the same way. They may be right as well. But I've lived in this city for a very long time. And the quarterback will always be the lightening rod. But if you have listened to enough sports talk radio, every yearh you have yahoos clamoring for AJ Feeley or Kolb or Koy Detmer for crying out loud! Even Jeff Garcia last year played one quarter before fans clamored for AJ Feeley.
But the Birds are 0 and 2. And so the "Black" Lash begins. Over at CBS Sportsline, two columnists go at it, in a sort of black and white cookie version of Siskel and Ebert. This guy lists all the white quarterbacks who have been criticized. Man White guy columnists get pissed off when you say they are racist. Although, I don't think McNabb every said the Media did he???
