And McNabb is written about like he's infalliable and the faults on the team are everyone elses.

It seems Rush has as much football knowledge as you. I happen to frequent the Eagles Message Boards, and I can tell you that there were a fair amount of threads talking about how bad McNabb has played this year. But the threads talking about the HORRIBLE play calling(only 21 rushes by RBs in the two loses), and the derth of talent at the WR position outnumbered Mcnabb threads about 4 to 1. Drunk ass Eagles fans can pinpoint the problem s better than Rush. Maybe he should actually do some homework instead of looking for openings to push his agenda. If he was going to say anything about race on that show, it should have been the forced interviews for Head coaching jobs based on race. This came out of left field and shows he did ZERO research on the topic.

McNauseous sucks, he's overrated, if he hadn't come into the league with a team that emphasized defense, o-line play and special teams, he would have never won more than 6 games a year QBing anyone. He got the contract and continues to get the breaks because he has DARK SKIN in Philly! Period!! Stuff that in your PC pipe and take a hit.

Rush didn't say anything about race with regard to this particular player's ability. He merely pointed out that the sports media sometimes have race in mind above other things.

He's right about that, and his resignation points that out in spectacular fashion.

Rush did discuss the forced job interviews for black coaches on the his very first ESPN show...you must not pay attention.

And since Philadelphia is the only city with an NFL team that has an actual judge on premise at home games to instantly sentence those "drunk ass Eagles Fans" as you put it (no need to pluralize Eagle there), I don't give too much weight to those that write on message boards.

And I don't need message boards to watch McNabb fail to see open receivers.

Everyone has an opinion. Everyone is entitled to his/her opinion. Why can't Rush express his opinion? His opinion maybe stupid, but it's just that - AN OPINION. He blamed the media more than McNabb, and he is being crucified by the media which he attacked.
