"Donovan McNabb: Mediocre at Best" Article

[Master4Caster]

What a pile of shi-aving cream. First Rush Limbaugh, then TO, the the local NAACP. Who's next? The Pope?

Note to Donovan: it's OK to get mad at these people. You got cause.

Vick is definitely overrated.

Look, the guy is incredibly talented without a doubt. But he's just not a complete package at QB yet. Note that I said yet.

He gets a ton of hype due to his athletic ability, but as far as QB's go there are a plenty of guys I'd take over him if I were building a franchise.

The person who wrote that article is not a prolific writer by anymeans. He seems to float back from this to that barley touching topics. He doesn't have a main thesis he is trying to prove; he just seems to type about whatever enters his mind. His argument I would assume would be how Mcnabb used race to propel his career. The writer tried to be poignant with everything and just altogether missed the fact that McNabb went to the confrence finals four times. Who considers that achievement mediocre?

Some people love to set themselves up(at least in their own minds) as the standard bearers of this or that and judge all others who are doing or attempting.this clown is not worth listening to. i'll take mcnabb in a heart beat.lets be real, the eagles have lacked balance for years and that's why they lost the super bowl.i can understand being frustrated but to glorify owens and tear down mcnabb is crazy.these people need to go away and never come back.it's really sad, give money to ownes, for what? he just signed the contract, was talked to before he did to make sure this was ok. now one year later owens wants to change it and the eagles rightly said NO!!!.these fans do not seem to me to remember their history ok sucking for sooooo long.this is sorry.this is why owens is not welcome here.

WHAT YA'LL VERSION OF A COMPLETE QB, PEYTON, HIS LITTLE BROTHER, BRADY, BREES, THE FACT IS THAT ARE 6 STARTING BLACK QB'S IN THIS LEAGUE (6) 5 IF YOU FACTOR IN THAT BROOKS WAS DOWN SIZED (for good reason, he sucks) all of them are capable of being pro bowl material, but since the begging of time no black QB has been good enough are smart enough to play in this league, and now that the # is getting bigger, which will include Vince Young, and Marcus (Vick) next year or the year afterwards, the fact is everytime someone, say traditional QB, then I hear the Vick thing and the why Scrambling QB's (black ones) that what the issue is aren't going to win a Superbowl, unless he sit in the pocket like a good little boy and throw the ball, the fact is there talent has evolved to more of a New Wave (if you will) and Troy Aikman and John Madden says this is the standard of the up and coming new QB's.........now evertime there is a issue about a black QB i'm going to inject. like or not...I have to black sons....and they admire there hero's and when anyone like that NAACP fool say something or Racist Limbarugh then I will defend them period, because no blackman should have to keep defending why he is not good enough or isnt Peyton, Hell nobodys Peyton Manning, I love Football and appreciate it for it beauty, and I never seen anyone run a offense like Peyton Manning, ever black or white and I'm 35 and I've watched alot of football, and I defend Peyton Manning if someone said something stupid like "well he throw so well because he lack athletic abilty".. to me thats crazy, but to me there is no overrated black QB's in this league, because we can go down list of bums that came in this league and playing right now that isn't BLACK, I hear people on here always saying why you got make this a racist thing, I don't have to...........life and time has beat me to it.........

I think that....well nevermind, I'm not even sure what I think after that unintelligible, grammatical and rhetorical trainwreck of a post.

You might have a great point in there for all I know, but I don't think anyone could decipher what you just said.

I love how this thread has morphed into a heated Michael Vick discussion. & is it just me, or did your avatar change as well?

Personal attack alert, mods.

Wewhite, I am dumbfounded at your stupidity.

That should be enough to shut this thread down, hopefully.

I'll go ahead and shut this down. It's embarrassing that people can't opine that Vick may just be overrated without having to deal with "because he's black right?" as a retort.

Anyway, let's just be done with this

[MTK]

Let's not drag this thread in to a racial debate or it will get locked down really quick.

It's headed that way, so let's cut it off at the pass right now.

thanks
