Limbaugh's a jerk and a loser!
1. That was a year ago, let it go.
2. Limbaugh was not using 'racist trash talk'.

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."
He's accusing the media of hyping the abilities of McNabb.
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.
