That’s the paradox of powerlessness. The group tries to protect the One by keeping quiet, when the One is actually safest when the Group is most vocal, most persistent and most organized in pursuit of their common agenda.

Black folks might have to realize that this may be a tough 4 years for us. Alot of so called black leaders might not even address issues like this. For the fear that it could make matters worse for Obama (in their eyes).

I’m surprised this didn’t start a riot in that terminal.

I wonder if Prez Obama in our post-racial country will ask us to observe the rule of law or jump in Schwarnazi’s azz to get a state and federal investigation into this?

After he was named the starter for the Cardinals game I didn’t doubt McNabb would be back but it’s taken a load off his shoulders because just like Tavaris Jackson, he’s playing a freer yet more discplined game. This isn’t the McNabb of the four straight championship games but if he can get a scary WR or TE next season, the sports cognoscenti will have to seriously consider this man for the HOF with or without a SB victory because he’s going to have the numbers geeks love and the leadership qualities writers say a QB is supposed to have in abundance. Win a title though and he may as well get fitted for his gold blazer after he hoists the Lombardi.

T-Jax is going to be just fine as long as Childress shows some faith in him next year and lets him make his mistakes and learn from them. I still say Childress should have let the young man play through his slump earlier this season but he’s on an upward slope now and will get better because he seems to have the want-to I like to talk about. I don’t know if he’s as talented as Vick and McNabb or as polished as P. Manning or Brady but he can be a twelve-year starter in the league. Get him a quality wideout (talking to you Ocho) and a field stretching TE (yeah, you Winslow) to team with AD and the NFC North race won’t even be close next year. I’m glad he has some kind of relationship with McNabb because T-Jax can mine his experience for keeping his head on straight when the media and coaches are sharpening their blades on his name.

Hmmm, I wonder if VY and Jason Campbell will bother to call up D’Nabb too for some advice after learning that Black QB’s truly are judged are a little differently firsthand this year? Probably not because those two probably won’t learn until they get tired of holding clipboards and wearing sun visors. (Sorry for the snark, but I’m still salty about them playing the good Negro roles last season when 5 made his HBO comments).
