86. Best post in this thread, Atlien!
Such a breath of fresh air after the many other posters who are trying to equate Sapp with Rush.

Rush didn't say blacks were inferior. He implied inferior black players can be overhyped. He was really trying to paint the media as "liberal", a common ploy by the right.

Sapp didn't say whites were inferior. He replied that if anyone's more likely to be overhyped, it's inferior white players. He reminded us that the media is still quite racist.

Sapp didn't step over the line by pointing out a little-known fact. Rush did step over the line by mouthing a well-worn lie.
