I never thought I'd agree with anything that came out of the mouth of Rush Limbaugh, but damn if that ain't just what's happened.

It seems radio star Rush Limbaugh now finds himself at the center of a media storm over comments he made on ESPN last weekend.

From the Drudge Report: "CNN all but turned its network over to the controversy on Wednesday, suspiciously putting the story ahead of the CIA leak swirl started by CNN's Bob Novak. The commotion began when Limbaugh said on ESPN's pregame show that Philadelphia Eagles quarterback Donovan McNabb was overrated because the media wanted to see a black quarterback do well.

"I think what we've had here is a little social concern in the NFL. The media has been very desirous that a black quarterback do well," said Limbaugh. "There is a little hope invested in McNabb, and he got a lot of credit for the performance of this team that he didn't deserve. The defense carried this team."

Quarterback McNabb told cameras he isn't looking for an apology -- because it's too late.

"We supposedly have freedom of speech in this country," Limbaugh explained on his radio program. "An opinion is an opinion."

The week prior, Limbaugh defended and spoke up for the league’s black coaches in a commentary."

JimmyD sez: I'm trying to figure out who, if anyone, got diss'd here: the NFL, Donovan McNabb, or the media? Is Limbaugh guilty of dissing the media and the NFL by accusing them of reverse racism? Is he guilty of dissing McNabb by sharing his opinion that McNabb might be an over-rated quarterback? (Regardless of his skin color?) Did he diss everyone because he brought race into the "how good is McNabb" issue? I really don't know.

But there's one thing I do know: When Rush Limbuagh says, "We supposedly have freedom of speech in this country... An opinion is an opinion," I agree with him 100%!

And like I said, I never thought I'd agree with anything Rush Limbaugh had to say.
