Here ya go full article (you may have to register, the entire article's probably not worthwhile IMO)
"We were laughing and joking about it a couple of days ago," McNabb said. "Everybody that seems to take a shot at me either loses their job or more things are found out about them that they don't want people to know."
It's actually a little worse than I recalled. I'm with you though, I'll cut him a break at this point, but he's not headed in the right direction.

the woman who cleans the restroom in
the building I work in. I'm going to start
thinking of her as a human being"
Q: How much of a hit has your reputation and stature taken this year?
A: Obviously I probably wouldn't be able to name one player who has been through what I've been through the last five, six, seven years. I don't think I've taken a hit on my name or my reputation at all. Maybe I'm optimistic with it, but I think one thing that it has done is, it's obviously made people pay attention to a lot of things that I do and what I say. I've had so many compliments on how I've handled a lot of situations, but that's just being me.
Q: Are you amazed at some of the things said about you?
A: "I am. We were laughing and joking about it a couple of days ago. It seems like everybody who seems to take a shot at me either loses their job (laughing) or more things are found out about them that they don't want people to know. So (laughing), I think now people are hesitant about bringing my name out of their mouth now. Hey, I tried to tell them ..But you know what? We can sit back and laugh about that but it doesn't have to be like that."
Q: Is it disappointing when someone makes remarks about your race?
A: "Especially being the same color I am. Obviously if it was someone else that's not African-American descent, to talk about your race, then it's a racist type of statement. But when it's someone of the same race as you that talks about you like you're selling out or whatever because you're not running the ball, it goes back to, what are we really talking about? When you go deep into that or you go statistically into what I've been doing, or how come I didn't stick up for so and so, or say why didn't I give a little bit of my (salary) to somebody else making money, you know, you still try to find an answer. And there's no answer that I've found.
"If you're talking about my play, that's one thing. If you're talking about my race, now we've got problems. If you try to make a name off of my name, I hope your closet is clean, because something is going to come out about you, too."
