Re: i have never understood his popularity...

Well, I do not listen to Rush, my point was that ESPN hired him because he is controversial to help boost their ratings, which DID happen. Now he is resigning because he said something that was controversial... ??? helloooo.

The bad thing is, his comments were directed at the media and NOT at McNabb. He's resigning because his comments were misconstrued.

But, I'm sure he'll be OK. Like him or not, his show is on like 600 or so affiliates...

That's easy to say, until a comment YOU make is interpreted in a way that you didn't mean it...

The neither R nor D,
