Normally I don't like reading Jemele Hill's articles because she manages to attach racial undertones to every single thing she writes, but I saw this article after reading your post.
I especially enjoyed Michael Irvin's quote: "Former ESPN NFL analyst Michael Irvin channeled his inner Jimmy the Greek when attempting to explain Tony Romo's abilities. Irvin surmised that Romo was good because his "great, great, great, great grandma pulled one of them studs up outta the barn [and said], 'Come here for a second.'"
Personally I think everyone needs to loosen up about a stupid magazine cover, but I guess I don't have to deal with the repurcussions...
