Things look good. If they beat the Bucs (I'll be happy with just a win) then the hype was real.

2. Limbaugh was not using 'racist trash talk'.
QuoteHe's accusing the media of hyping the abilities of McNabb.
McNabb, he said, is "overrated ... what we have here is a little social concern in the NFL. The media has been very desirous that a black quarterback can do well—black coaches and black quarterbacks doing well."
"There's a little hope invested in McNabb, and he got a lot of credit for the performance of his team that he didn't deserve. The defense carried this team."
I heard the clip plenty of times.
Slate Article from October 2003
Its like the media when they talk about the Yankees. Anyone here recall the buzz that was started when my Cleveland Indians gave the Yankees a whipping they will never forget?? I didn't stop hear abut it for at least a week, maybe a week and a half.
If the Indians had done the same to...I don't know, the Kansas City Royals or the Tampa Bay Devil Rays, I can assure you we would have heard much less about it. It certainly wouldn't have had a 2-page spread/analysis in The Sporting News.

1. Recent enough to still be news. Last season isn't that long ago when talking about sports that take so much time off.
2. He most certainly was. His whole point was based on the color of his skin. The worst part is guy didn't know what he was talking about. McNabb has been a major reason the team did well in the last few years. The defense can shut the other team down, but the offense still needs to score. The Eagles haven't had a decent running game or receiver group since he got there, yet they keep winning. Rush the shock jock has also made racist comments on his radio show before.

QuoteMaking a statement based on the color of one's skin does not immediately constitute racism.
He most certainly was. His whole point was based on the color of his skin.
QuoteLimbaugh's statement was that he felt the national media was showing favoritism towards McNabb (because of his race), that he was overrated.
from dictionary.com:
1. The belief that race accounts for differences in human character or ability and that a particular race is superior to others.
2. Discrimination or prejudice based on race.
What exactly about his statement was "racist"?
- The media has been very desirous that a black quarterback can do well...- Rush is saying that the media is overhyping a QB (any QB) because there are not many black QBs in the NFL. That doesn't sound racist towards blacks. This could be viewed as a perosnal opinion of the media, not of McNabb.
- There's a little hope invested in McNabb, and he got a lot of credit for the performance of his team that he didn't deserve. The defense carried this team.- This sounds like it could be a simple statement of fact that could be applied to ANY QB.
Looking at the numbers in that Slate article, I'd say that it was a reasonable assessment to say that the defense was the strength of that team.
But, it has been McNabb that is able to garner the majority of the attention, right?

I suppose I'm probably going to be falsely branded a racist because I support Rush's side of the incident. If that happens, so be it.

grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr! The Lions are going to get killed on Sunday mark my words! I am sure that photo(of the Eagles fan) is old, and was taken from a time when the team did stink. I am sure if I wanted to, I could find photo's of Lions fans that our just as bad. As the Lions have had some very bad teams over the years
