"It's different to say, `If we had Michael Vick or Daunte Culpepper or Steve McNair or Byron Leftwich," McNabb said of four black starting quarterbacks. "But to go straight to Brett Favre, that kind of just slapped me in the face like, `Wow ..."'

I'm curious.. How many of those Super Bowls did Culpepper, McNair, Vick, or Leftwich win? What about Favre? In McNabb's mind, he can only be compared to black quarterbacks? That's ridiculous. Culpepper is definitely a top QB. Vick is overrated. McNair is old and just about done for. Leftwich is developing and is definitely up and coming. But how many playoff victories does he have? Favre has definitely seen better days, and his decision making skills have become suspect in his advanced years. But to discount a Super Bowl ring to such a low point that Favre has to automatically be put behind those four quarterbacks is just plain dumb.

Bah. I shouldn't be wasting time to write this, but I felt the need. Back to work and learning more about Title IX.
