By the way, to this day no one knows what happened to the two horses that ran from the fight. There's no account in the papers. There's no account of anyone ever bringing the horses back. So who knows? Maybe the horses ran off to Hollywood and told their story. Allen Barra
Motivational, Inspirational, Funny Quotes
![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. - Allen Barra Quotes](/pic/img/img.php?text=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&author=ICBBbGxlbiBCYXJyYSAgICA=&num=12 "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.
