I'm sick of people screaming Racism about shit
Trauma-san:
Today, Rush limbaugh resigned from ESPN. This comes after last week, they asked him about Brian McNabb, a black quarterback in the NFL. McNabb had been doing a bad job for a few games, and Rush said this:
"I think what we've had here is a little social concern in the NFL. The media has been very desirous that a black quarterback do well," Limbaugh said on Sunday NFL Countdown.
"There is a little hope invested in McNabb, and he got a lot of credit for the performance of this team that he didn't deserve. The defense carried this team," he said.
Now, everybody from Al Sharpton to all of the democratic presidential candidates were calling for his firing. FOR WHAT? He just said something that mentioned that McNabb was black, I see nothing wrong with that statement.
Also, they totally disregarded that the 1st week Rush was on ESPN, he came to the defense of Black Coaches, saying that the league's rule of teams interviewing black coaches turned them into pawns and was not going to help the problem of there not being enough black coaches.
They also ignored that he said almost the same exact thing about a white quarterback the year before.
It's bullshit, this guy is the farthest thing from racist around.
Primo:
Its Donovan McNabb
Don Jacob:
culpepper and vick are MUCH better ....but that's besides the point
i agree, people are too hyper racial anymore. yes racism does still exisist , but just becuase something goes wrong or something offends you , there is not always a racist root to it.
Real American:
This is absolute bullshit. What the hell is happening in America? Whatever happened to free speech? Nowadays you can lose your job for simply expressing a opinion. But when minorities say things like this no one even cares.
