This change of stance means he's bucking for a fight with the fans and media of philly so that he can orchestrate his way out on bad terms. I don't believe he really believes he's been racially picked on. Hell the other night was the first time he's ever been booed here aside from 10 buffoons @ the draft. He's had a free pass here, Randall Cunningham withstood 10 * the criticism in Philly McSixTheOtherWay has and never ONCE ripped a race card out.
It all traces back to the fans and many of the Eagles, most notably Brian Westbrook really embracing Jeff Garcia last year and then continues to the drafting of Kevin Kolb.
Andy Reid knew EXACTLY what he was doing taking that guy, btw.

Personally, I think it's a thinking position more than anything and black QB's grow up emulating showboaters (Iverson, T.O., Chad Johnson, Bonds as contemporary examples) and it hurts when you have to play a position where you need brains over athleticism. Probably why option QB's are good in college but never in the pros. You can't use that athletic advantage in the NFL because the game is so much faster. Tom Brady, Joe Montana and Dan Fouts were about as athletic as bar stools but their brians and knowledge of the game made them great. Black QB's haven't figured that aspect out yet.

Come on Dan....
Terry Bradshaw, and Ken Stabler and even Joe Namath were all dumbfucks, yet all those fuckers won. Randall Cunningham was a smart dude.
This argument is just not worthy of any discussion.
Are you saying you would rather have George w Bush at QB, and Colin Powell at tailback?

There are exceptions. Warren Moon, Doug Williams, Vince Evans, Byron Leftwich, David Garrard.
But for the most part they're extremely, er, INCONSISTENT passers. And you know what? They'll be the first ones to rub it in peoples' noses that they're better athletes than whites, so just for hipocrisy's sake, one good generalization deserves another.
