:whoa: All cam was saying was that he was better then those failures.
@AVXL


And who tie those failures to him and on what basis?

When you answer that, tell me what's right about it and why should one view it as legitimate.

Putting the messanger aside, what about the message itself? Do you think he distances himself from his race or not?

No. I can't recall ever witnessing RGIII doing that. The term "black qb" has always had a negative connotation and i, for one, am glad to see RGIII try to separate from that.

i actually agree with Rob Parker, he does come off as an "Uncle Tom" type of dude in my opinion, he don't want to be compared to Cam Newtown or Vick, but want to be compared to Aaron Rodgers but he runs an gimmick option pass system, how in the fukk are they comparable?? Cam and RGIII can be compared...he just don't want to cause Cam is black and he is an "Cornball Brotha"

Or maybe he just rather be compared to the best QB in the league than to a guy who just lead the most disappointing squad of the season or to homotional ass Cam Newton :wtf:

He is fukking cornball though

Okay hold up. All I am saying is that Cam felt the media was comparing him to blacks because he's black that was his response. He was wrong, because he threw dudes under the bus.

Maybe he is tired of answering "black QB" questions all the time. Maybe he wants to just answer QB questions.

I have no problem with his response or those questioning it. He's doing a good job of shattering stereotypes of the black QB. Dude is just athletic, but has every skill a QB (regardless of race) would want. I need RG3, Cam, Freeman, Vick, anybody to win a Superbowl. This shouldn't be a conversation piece so many years after Doug Williams

Why does it really matter if he's married to a becky and says that @Majestic Pape

He said something that some may consider "c00nish", some may consider cool... I don't know much about RGIII outside of football, but if I had to decide if he was c00nin' or not, him having a white wife may tip me to one side. :mjpls:

Thing is though, I think black people bring up "Black QB's" more than white people do.

He shouldn't have.

It's too late in the day to NOT put in check that whenever we're progressing and we're always measured by black negligence as opposed to excellence.

RGIII is putting that shyt in check. Compare him to excellence....don't marginalize him. He gets it.

That's right idiot.

"Black people" are the ones asking RGIII these questions all the time NOT the white boys that make up 92% of the sports media that bring it to life.

:childplease:

I swear to god you're an idiot.

RG3 is absolutely corny. He's a true bamma. But using cornyness (or coolness/swag whatever) as a gauge of blackness is...corny.

lol at Stephen Jackson aka Stak5 not being corny. Have you seen his music videos? Most athletes (and regular people) are corny. Jim Brown being the only exception. :birdman:

I would hate having to go to work and having to hear myself measured against past black failures at my job by these white boys. Why should RGIII?
