Fox Sports Blog: “Black QB’s are Dumb”

I know Fox Sports probably isn’t paying this guy anything, but they are paying for the bandwidth for him to write this tripe. And it appears under the Fox Sports Logo. Witness the complete and total idiot that is Christopher Ross. The headline: “Black QB’s are Dumb.” Some of the quotes:

“You can’t blame Vick, though. Like black QB’s before him, (Kordell Stewart and Randall Cunningham come to mind), he’s a guy with incredible arms and legs but a below average cranium.”

“Black QB’s all seem to have that in common, their brains may be slow but their legs sure are fast. Even the best of black QB’s turn to their legs when things get complicated. It’s why Kurt Warner won a SB and Steve McNair didn’t. Maybe if te Titans had McNair where he belonged, at halfback, things would have been different for the Flaming Thumbtacks.”

“Maybe it’s time to abandon the experiment all together and face facts, though. Black QB’s just can’t get it done intellectually.”

The best part is that afterwards, this moron tries to prove that he’s not racist because he thinks Dan Marino was dumb too. Read his quotes, then try to follow his logic. The guy really thinks he has proven that he’s not racist. His defense is largely based on the assertion that his title is a “literary device” and that his critics don’t use proper grammar. He has also proven that he doesn’t know football (see Williams, Doug). If it wasn’t so sad, it’d be funny.
