What a surprise! I didn't know black quarterbacks were playing on Sunday.

I thought (black QB) Doug Williams put all this nonsense to rest when he led the '87 Redskins to a Super Bowl title? Have we forgotten? Going even further back, (black QB) Jame Harris was highly successsful with the L.A. Rams in the mid 70s, and his problems with racism were extremely rare.

This article is a bunch of BS. Although I don't doubt that some idiots would threaten a black QB, I doubt if it was as common and serious as this reporter is making it out to be.

The only people who make a big deal out of blacks playing QB are black racists themselves trying to make it look like there is big opposition to the black QB.

What do you want to bet that none of the gentlemen who have been threatened this way support concealed carry, as any sane person would do under the circumstances? Knowing that the object of your hatred was carrying a cocked and locked .45 might make you notice his skin color a little less.

I had Oiler season tickets before and after Warren Moon was QB in Houston. I never heard any racial slurs about him.

He was known to hang out at The Men's Club--with blonds-- and he had a problem with the law after beating up on and chasing his wife through their neighborhood at a high rate of speed. She filed charges against him but later dropped them.

""Look at a guy like Daunte Culpepper," Moon said. "He was still getting hate mail up in Minnesota because they lost a couple games early this season."

Moon is a racist. This statement proves it! They are getting "hate mail" for making lousy plays, not because they are black! He is a race baiting SOB just like J. Jackson!

Correction: "Wherever Warren Moon went, death threats and hate mail and racism resulting from his habit of padding his own stats at the expense of his team were never far behind."

Wow, Black men are NFL quarterbacks? I never knew.

The next thing you know a Black man will be a Supreme Court Justice or Secretrary of State.

I even saw blacks people sitting in the front of the bus yesterday.

Boy, society sure is changing.

It isn't a big deal anymore.

As a fan and someone experienced in the game, I don't give a damn about color. I care about wins and losses.

Charlie Batch couldn't get the job done for the Lions. He's black. Scott Mitchell couldn't get the job AT ALL for the Lions. He's white. Rodney Peete could have gotten the job if we had good coaching. He's black. Joey Harrington isn't doing the job right now. He's white.

I think McNabb and Culpepper are both very good Quarterbacks. Period.
