December 14, 201213 yr I'm now even more confused about the criteria to be black. If he had a white spouse/girlfriend, voted for Romney yet was broke, would he then be a "brother" or authentically black? This racism thing I guess I'll never understand. I'm glad I'm not black, not because of the skin color, but because I'd hate to have to try to fit in a profile that my peers wanted me to fit into because of "the cause". I don't suppose I'm ever gonna get it. To me, isn't what some are saying about RG3 racist in nature?
December 14, 201213 yr :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: No. He shouldn't be fired. Cornball brother=Carlton Banks. Yes. Parker is a cornball brother. :lol: I wish they would have secretly videotaped Stephen A. Smith's face during this discussion. :lol:
December 14, 201213 yr Is 85BearsFan on ESPN now? 85 is 1,000,000x funnier and truer than Rob Parker.
December 14, 201213 yr Author Ironically, the current backup to RG3 was slandered by Parker when he was a frosh at MichSt. Kirk Cousins' father: 'This is just so ludicrous' | MLive.com
December 14, 201213 yr ESPN has suspended Parker. After all of the stupidity Skip Bayless has uttered and Parker is suspended for this? Wack. ESPN is a joke. Period.
December 14, 201213 yr After all of the stupidity Skip Bayless has uttered and Parker is suspended for this? Wack. ESPN is a joke. Period. They fired Limbaugh for basically the same.
December 14, 201213 yr ESPN has suspended Parker. Parker and suspension. The two are synonymous with one another and he has found himself in deep water before with remarks and actions. I actually like Parker's sports commentary but the guys is consumed with race. I understand having healthy debates about race, and First Take often delves in to that realm but you can tell Parker has some deeper issues when it comes to skin color.
December 14, 201213 yr They fired Limbaugh for basically the same. WHo did? ESPN? Limbaugh worked for ESPN? As if he didn't have an agenda but humor me, what was he fired for?
December 14, 201213 yr They fired Limbaugh for basically the same. They did. And fair or unfair there is a double standard. That is a reality.
December 14, 201213 yr WHo did? ESPN? Limbaugh worked for ESPN? As if he didn't have an agenda but humor me, what was he fired for? Yes, ESPN. Back when McNabb was with the Eagles he got fired from Sunday Countdown for saying that people wanted McNabb to succeed because they wanted a black QB to be successful.

Comes with the territory. Now black people can't even speak honestly about black people without getting suspended. Awesome. Progress in action.
