Limbaugh decided to call it quits from all the controversy that was created from his comments about Mcnabb.

No offense, I don't see the big deal in what he said.

wickthayer · 10-02-2003, 02:18 PM

I wonder why he quit so fast? He should also remember that given all of his air time he is the "Media".

IMO, he spoke the truth about McNabb.

I agree

Brian Damage · 10-02-2003, 06:21 PM

That's why I don't get why he had to quit.

Reverse racism

Rush Limburgh was usually heard on WABC and on ESPN Radio at the time and he quit his job. I used to watch his own talk show on the old Kingston's WTZA-TV, Channel 62 back in the mid-90's.

Did you hear now he's involved in some sort of drug ring?!

how is that reverse racism. Did Tom Jackson say Vinny Testerverde is the worst 40 year old white quarterback he ever saw. I don't think race should ever be used when your judging someones ABILITY. You let someone ask who was the last white running back or who was the last white this or white that then that would be wrong as well.....

I don't think it was a big deal at all.

Ditto!

I just dont know why he had to implicate race in the thing, just say McNabb is over rated and end it. He would have been fine there. The media doesnt hesitate to talk about black QB's that are bad, Kordell and whoever else.

But he shouldnt lose his job over it. But pretty much any white person who implicates race in sports is finished. Jimmy the Greek, Al Campanas, but Dusty Baker can blab on all he wants.
