...think Rush was unfairly forced out. ESPN hired him to be Rush, and guess what? They got him. Rush also has a right to freedom of speech. If the people didn't like what they heard, the ratings would have dropped. Should have left it to that. Guy Shewmaker Leander, Texas...

...think he should have resigned but he certainly had no business bringing race into his argument. I'm sorry Rush, but I can't think of any instances where black athletes got credit for greatness that they didn't achive. All the black QBs are there because they are better than their competition, period. The real question is why did it take until the 21st century for them to finally be taken seriously at the quarterback position? I just don't think Mr. Limbaugh thought the matter through. Allan Lewis Dunwoody...

...only thing that Rush proved is that he knows little about football. Donovan McNabb is one of the best quarterbacks in the league, as are Mike Vick and Daunte Culpepper. The media doesn't have to be "desirous" to make the young men the stars that they are. Tom Rajan Houston, Texas...

...Rush's comments were not racist. He spoke the truth about the media's position on "black" players and coaches. The media touted "Art Shell, first black NFL Head Coach", "Randall Cunningham, black quarterback", "there are 7 black quarterbacks in the NFL." The list goes on. Rush showed his consideration to the cast members by resigning. However, their spineless comments on the following Sunday just show their hypocrisy. No wonder their ratings are low. Robyn Phillips Fallbrooks, Calif...

...fact that Donovan McNabb is black has nothing to do with his ability as a player. Black is the color of his skin. Rush Limbaugh was stupid to bring the issue of race into question when discussing a player's ability. Donovan McNabb is a great player. Period. Rush had no choice but to resign. He's a fraud out of school discussing football. He should schtick to politics. Mike LaNoue Michigan...
