When it comes to sports, politics don't mix

Maybe it was Congress' effort to show the general public that there are actually people less trustworthy than congressmen. Our elected representatives naturally grew impatient with the non-answers, probably in much the same way that investigators grow impatient when they depose a congressman about taking bribes from a defense contractor.

--snip--

Mondesire's criticism of McNabb was beyond bizarre. At least with Limbaugh you couldn't pretend to be surprised. But when the Philadelphia chapter president of the NAACP accuses you of selling out your race by staying in the pocket, good God, you couldn't possibly see that coming. Talk about a blindside hit. As if McNabb hasn't taken enough grief this year from another guy who was supposed to be on his side.

Either Mondesire doesn't know what the second A stands for in NAACP or he doesn't know what "advancement" means. (While we're on the subject, any chance we can, uh, you know, modernize the C in NAACP?) When it comes to eating one's own, Mondesire has outdone Montecor, though J. Whyatt probably thinks a white lion eating his handler is fulfilling his destiny in a way a black pocket passer is not. But beyond race, like Limbaugh before him, Mondesire revealed that he doesn't really know anything about football either.

I dunno from the clip provided here it looks like he got the mandetory cheap shot in on Limbaugh. Not motivating me to go and read the whole thing.

Yeah, change the name to NAAAAP. The people running it have been in cold sleep since the 60s anyway. LOL. This guy is a 7 on the UCI.

Several cheap shots, in fact.

Does this announcer even know that Rush Limbaugh had a life working in professional sports before becoming an announcer himself?
