Why Wait To Go Postal?

-- Spike Lee, Brooklyn

Rush Limbaugh was right. You white guys in the media overhype the talents of black athletes.

-- Donovan McNabb, Philadelphia

I agree. That state senator was totally out of line. He should be calling for Reilly to be fired.

Cheerleaders, hunters, Bill Romanowski. Doesn't Rick Reilly ever get tired of being wrong? By defending a dinosaur like DeBerry, he's guilty of plantation-owner thinking--seeing an entire race merely for their bodies and not their minds. Reilly is dumber than a roomful of lint. This clown won Sportswriter of the Year? Now that's a mark that should have an asterisk next to it.

-- Barry Bonds, San Francisco

I, for one, am glad to see someone defend this fine Christian coach who really does want to reach out to the fast, Afro-American high-school-football-playing population.

-- F. DeBerry, Colorado Springs

Couldn't Reilly just switch to tennis ball boy full-time and leave idiot sportswriting to somebody else?
