a lack of "cardiovasular conditioning". What the hell is that? Sounds like he smokes cigs to me..

I remember T.O. saying that McNabb was throwing up one time during a two minute drill too. I think that was during the Superbowl.

Run 10 50-yard wind sprints uphill. You will soon discover what cardiovascular conditioning is.

Dude, why you wanna bring that up? Relevance? Anyway, it's quite obvious you don't know what the hell you're talking about. Rush was talking about the media and how they were propping up McNabb because he needed to succeed for their own self interests.

It wasn't like I was joking around. I'm sure Rush would love another shot to talk about Donovan because after he got slammed by ESPN and his fellow peers, even though I think it was true what he said. I agreed with what he had to say to a certain degree. McNabb was apretty good QB at that time, but the media was overhyping the hell out of him and declaring him the best QB in the NFL, which was not the case. Rush called it like it was, and I think to a degree he was correct.

Since you would like to know about wanting another crack and all:

" Now, McNabb has been there since spring training. Now, if it were me, can I say, "What does he not grasp? What is the coach talking about here? Doesn't grasp the playbook? Is that what the coach is saying? Doesn't grasp the two-minute strategy, the game plan for two minutes?"

This has me kinda going in circles here. This is Mike Shanahan. This is not some rookie head coach. But (sigh), anyway, the media is complaining" from Rush.

I think you missed the point. You said since he was talking about McNabb. He wasn't the one talking about the man. He was talking about the media's fellatio in having him succeed even if he didn't.
