If there is a rap on black quarterbacks, it is that they are too eager to run "to make something happen" instead of staying in the pocket. In other words, a college-style QB.

No running college-style quarterback has ever won a Super Bowl. They are exciting to watch. They put fans in the seats because they can overcome and outrun a mediocre or bad team's shortcomings, they sell a lot of jerseys, but they do not put championship banners and flags in their home stadiums.

John Elway and Roger Staubach were through running to make something happen and became prototypical NFL-style QB's when they finally won their SB rings. They learned what Fran Tarkenton never did learn.

When McNabb got injured, it was either time for him to become an NFL-style quarterback that throws first and only runs for his life or show he that he is still just a college-style QB that can't cut it in the NFL.

Monday night he flunked his test. The black QB on the other side "passed" his test.

Judge McNabb differently? Sure. Look at his ring finger and compare it to Terry Bradshaw's, Joe Montana's, Tom Brady's, and Doug Williams' and you be the judge.

Donovan, here's a dose of reality for you, it's not the color of the finger, it's the jewelry that's on it.

Winning NFL quarterbacks are all one color - golden.
