I thought civil rights were about being treated equally? If that's the case, why should he think this game so special because he and Vick are black? They should just be QB's.

Good point. And besides, to be "technical", a "black quarterback" is going to be in the Super Bowl by default, not for any special effort on either team's part. It's a shame that we have to still deal with this Bravo Sierra in the year 2005, where people care more about the color of one's skin, vs. the content of their character--or their ability.
