Shut it, Donovan!
These particular statements are what irritate and frustrate sports fans across America. The absurd claim of racism amongst the media. Hey Donovan… shut up and play the game! I’m sick of hearing black athletes complain about racism where it does not exist. If you are going to make a horrific statement that sends shock waves throughout the media… how about some definitive evidence. Sure you have your Don Imus media types who cross the line, and I completely agree with his suspension because racism cannot be tolerated, but to claim that black quarterbacks are more criticized than white QB’s is absurd.
I guarantee that if Peyton Manning or Carson Palmer missed a wide open Kevin Curtis for a game-tying score they would have been condemned beyond belief. Donovan was a top-5 quarterback entering the season, and he has not been playing up to his potential. Donovan McNabb needs to improve his play, take the criticism like a man, and stop overshadowing his mediocre performances on suspected racism allegations. If you play poorly you will be criticized, no matter the color of your skin.

Donovan's Overrated.
Ravi we are having some issues with the font, as you can see...those weird things are being inserted into the articles for some reason. Anyways I always thought McNabb was a pretty great quarterback. Think about it, besides TO he never really had much weapons. No WR and Westbrook is not really your prototypical running back. Unfortunately for McNabb, he could never stay healthy.
As for his comments, I think they lack any foundation to them and really are ridiculous. When athletes regarded to be great struggle, they are criticized for that. That happens all the time, not just to black quarterbacks. I agree with Miniest Me...Shut Up, Donovan.
"Those weird things" as you call them, are because your browser isn't supporting the font. Use a regular old Times new roman in your posts.
this is a test.
