"Is he a brotha, or a cornball brotha" - Rob Parker on RG3

ESPN PR on Rob Parker's comments today on First Take: "The comments were inappropriate and we are evaluating our next steps."

Trying to argue with them is as useful as screaming at a chalkboard. It's just young minded cats projecting their fantasies on a kid as far as I'm concerned. I bet the same cats calling RG3 names in this thread are the same ones cheering for dude to go fukk every broad in Maryland even though he happy with the girl he got.

What's really dumb is they so caught up in being "offended" by dude not identifying with race that they don't even notice who they're comparing him too? I guarantee you that RG3 wouldn't reject the notion of being compared to Warren Moon, in the sense that both of them are performing in offenses that are considering unconventional as hell, but they're comparing him to Vick etc like they're actually good QB's which they aren't they're only comparable in terms of athleticism.

RG3 had an interview 2 weeks ago where he said he looked up to Randall Cunningham and Michael Vick as a kid. These simple minded idiots in this thread and the Rob Parker-types out there dont know what the fukk they are talking about.

Exactly. There have been great, good, and serviceable black QBs so why is the term "black QB" virtually synonymous with failure?

Because the QB position is suppose to be the "smart" position on the field and a lot of racist people do not believe that we are smart enough to play the position effectively, especially throw from the pocket. Also, the racist people believe that black QBs typically run to mask their inability to read defenses and throw the ball.

Did I answer your question?

Have been asked for comment on Rob Parker comments: The comments were inappropriate and we are evaluating our next steps.

@Cap. Scarlet
ironic thing is, the read option is called "read" option. If you can't read defenses, how are you able to run the "read" option as effectively as Redskins are runnin' it?

It was more of a rhetorical question.

Cacs on ESPN have said way worst and go uncheck.

But as soon as nikka say something, he need to apologize.

GTFOH

what is a cornball exactly?

acting white

 

[Slystallion]

So he said this because he thinks rg3 might be a Republican because he married a white woman?

But nobody wants to talk about it

This is the same network that let white boys get away with Martin Luther c00n and "Goodell is a Dad for fatherless Black NFL players" but now Parker has to apologize?

You don't get it do you? We can have a black QB that can break every QB record in the league, win multiple titles, and have several successful QBs get drafted out of college, but we will always be seen in the eyes of racist people as inferior when it comes to playing the position. Corporate America for the most part feels the same way about us, but we know better.

Cowherd been walking that fine line for more than a minute. Never heard anything close to an apology as a matter of fact he's extra smug with it because he knows not only will he get away with it, but it will probably benefit him.

Does anyone have a video of Stephen A.'s response to what Parker said?
