You know, i saw the original exchange when it was aired. This was basically it:

Rush: The Eagles and McNabb have been overrated from the beginning, their defense is more responsible for their success. I beleive part of the reason is the sports media takes race into consideration and is more willing to forgive the flaws and overrate the successes of black quarterbacks.

Tom Jackson: I disagree. McNabb is an excellent player who is having some difficulty this season. I don't agree that he is overrated, but even if he was, it wouldn't have anything to do with race.

That paraphrase was basically the exchange in a nutshell. Raise your hand if you think it was worth a man losing his job over it.
