Rush is still fodder for the press over his McNabb comments.

They better enjoy this milestone, because neither one is going to be a Super Bowl winning quarterback. The NFC stinks.

Let us not forget that one of the most prolific passers ever was a black QB (Warren Moon) and that Randall Cunningham wasnt too shabby himself...

I honestly hadnt even given a thought that there were 2 black QBs in this game. I see 2 teams with good defenses were the QB play will make the difference...thats about it...

I think an article like this one proves Rush's point.

Not this sh** again. Let's just call 'em quarterbacks and enjoy the game.

I was waiting for this irrelevent point to be mentioned.

Maybe Senator Byrd can delay or stop this.

Racist BS... just like all the Pandercrats asking the NSA if she had ever met Dr. King, and fawning over her "roots"?

Eagles will win.

I remember a time when we believed that blacks were incapable of being QB's. When they started playing QB, we said it couldn't happen at white colleges. When it started happening at white colleges, we said it couldn't happen in the NFL. When it happened in the NFL, we said one would never play in the Super Bowl. When Doug Williams won the Super Bowl, we quit saying anything.

The Eagles BETTER win. Four straight NFC Championship losses at home would be a record of futility, and probably cost one of the best coaching staffs in the game their jobs. Actually, no other city with three or more pro teams has gone longer without a Championship than Philadelphia. It's been since the 82-83 Sixers.

I would love to see the Falcons and Steelers in the SB. That would be fun to watch. But I'm guessing it will be the Eagles Vs Patriots.

I think either NFC team will have a hard time just scoring any points, because both AFC team defenses are playing great ball right now.

Well, thats one way of getting a black quarterbakc to win the superbowl again.... 3 out of the remaing 4 teams in the NFC had black QB's. No black QB has won the Super Bowl since Doug Williams... A black Head Coach has never won, soon the NFL will flood one conference like they did with the QB's. None of the 4 remaining AFC teams had a black starting QB...

McNabb will go down as usual, despite his Chunky soup beforehand.

It wasn't a surprise that players took exception to Limbaugh saying McNabb was overrated by the liberal media.

Rush himself is overrated. Can't take his repetitive drivel any more.

Ditto -- and honestly I'm surprised that this is the first time two black QB's will square off in the NFC championship. Long gone are the days when a black quarterback was a novelty (or even unheard of) -- and that should be all that need be said on the subject.

Apparently, this Philly rag doesn't care for that 'color-blind society' we've heard about over the past few decades.

But we all know that McNabb is there because the media wants him there.
