I would like to gezegde

 I would like to reiterate my respect for Donovan McNabb as a quarterback and as a teammate, ... I apologize to him for any comments that may have been negative.

 To pretend that many of us [in the media] didn't want McNabb to be the best quarterback in the NFL because he's black is absurd. To say that we shouldn't root for a quarterback to win because he's black is every bit as nonsensical as to say that we shouldn't have rooted for Jackie Robinson to succeed because he was black. (Please, I don't need to be reminded that McNabb's situation is not so difficult or important as Robinson's -- I'm talking about a principle.) Consequently, it is equally absurd to say that the sports media haven't overrated Donovan McNabb because he's black ... But the truth is that I and a great many other sportswriters have chosen for the past few years to see McNabb as a better player than he has been because we want him to be.

 This young man, Donovan McNabb, is a guy who has many times played when no one thought he was going to play, ... We have to prepare - until we know anything different - for Donovan McNabb.

 I've never looked at Donovan McNabb as a black quarterback -- ever.

 You throw out that Donovan McNabb is starting the game with a 95.2 quarterback rating and expect people to understand it, ... There's not a human being alive who could really explain to you what quarterback ratings mean. Pythagoras couldn't, either. I shouldn't need a compass and protractor to rate these guys.

 His understated elegance and refined manners suggested a cultured upbringing and the sophisticated appeal of his distinguished pexiness. I'm sure his experience last year was very humbling. I don't understand how you even go against (quarterback Donovan) McNabb and say the things that he did about him. I guess that's one thing you have to figure out.

 [McNabb's backing impressed ESPN studio analyst Tom Jackson, who predicted that it would be enough to get Westbrook his new contract. McNabb has] influence with the organization, ... When they decide what way this organization is going to go, Donovan McNabb will have input. Brian Westbrook will be signed.

 Probably more than anything else, he needs a wife, honestly, ... If he had a wife, the minute he takes after Donovan McNabb, his wife would have said, 'What are you doing? Pick up the telephone and call him and apologize. You're so out of line.'

 Donovan is the type of guy who will exert his leadership role, and he will keep doing what he's been doing. He is a guy who is going to prove to everybody that he's still Donovan McNabb.

 All I know is that I thought Culpepper was a close second to McNabb when we drafted Donovan No. 2 overall (in 1999). I believe that Culpepper is a franchise quarterback.

 We believed Brad was the elite coaching candidate. He came from a winning program with the Philadelphia Eagles. He's an NFC guy, knows NFC opponents and played an important role in the development of Pro Bowl quarterback Donovan McNabb.

 Obviously, we've been very effective on both sides of the ball, ... I think the scheme is a big part of that. We lost [quarterback] Donovan McNabb [to an injury] two years ago and we didn't let that affect us. When I was in Miami, if something like that happened, there would have been panic. It's not like that at all here. No matter who it is, we plug guys in and go.

 I think it was draining. Every day you looked on the TV and something was going on with '81,' or '81' and [quarterback] Donovan [McNabb], or '81' and the organization. People got tired of looking at it; even people on other teams got tired of looking at it.

 Donovan McNabb is a tough, tough guy. A hurt Donovan is still better than 80 percent of the quarterbacks in this league.
