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

[#1 pick]

Is Rob a brother... or an unemployed brother?

I try both for 500 Alex.

 

[calh45]

Yeah he is a cornball, what's all the fuss about here?

Rob Parker saying cornball was code for Uncle Tom.

Rob Parker saying cornball was code for Uncle Tom.

or "oreo" or "sell out"

Rob Parker was asking a question -- not making allegations. Parker is NOT very eloquent, and he did NOT phrase the shyt well. But I have been asked such questions about myself due to behavioral patterns and dating choices. So have many black people. The inquiry is not uncommon. Parker just targeted someone new and admitted OUT LOUD that he wonders it.

Smith and Bayless engage in excessive navel gazing all the time. It's Parker's turn. He is overdue.

Rob Parker asked too early. Nobody had thought to ask this question yet. Eventually (in the coming years) the racial dialogue about RG3 would have turned that direction. But RG3 is wildly popular RIGHT NOW, so comparing RG3 to Tiger Woods will draw backlash.

Sure. It was commentary concerning race. That happens on First Take. But Rob's QUESTION is cool for ratings & not malicious, so free my nygga Rob Parker!

While most of you seem focused on the "coolness" aspect of brotha vs. cornball brother, I think what he was really getting at is the fact that he has a white fiancee, and is rumored to be a Republican.

Firstly, dude was way out of line bringing that issue up on ESPN. Stupid ass probably just got himself fired.

But I do know what he is getting at. I just dont think we know enough about RGIII to answer the question. Because yeah, a white fiancee and being a Republican might sway you one way, but then the braids throws me off. Because the type of guy I'm thinking of would certainly frown on having braids as being too "******ish" or "hood".

Anybody ever find out what that dude who as trying to blackmail RGIII back over the summer actually had on him?

I think the dude fukked his girl and had pics and or video or some shyt

Should'nt have asked PERIOD. That's the problem. Let SAS tapdance for ESPN, Rob Parker should have been like "Oh nah I ain't trying to shyt on the young brother like that and stir the pot".

But no...he did exactly what racist whitey (that's racist whitey not whitey in general) wanted. Stirred the pot and then added some licorice to try and make it legit, but now the flavor is even WORSE.

Yeah he is a cornball, what's all the fuss about here?

The fuss is because he basically tried to act like the average Coli nikka, in reference to nikkas who ain't "black enough". You can get away with talkin' that shyt when you're an anonymous forum poster or when you're talkin' shyt with your boys in private....but when you're on TV and on a show like that; you better be ready to explain yourself and have answers for your views

Unfortunately for him, he tried to explain his "not down enough to be a brotha" comment, and he ended up looking like a hatin'-ass nikka who just said it to hate, when really he probably just shouldn't have said it at all

 

[BayArea Breez]

BTW, Rob Parker's troll job worked perfectly.

Look at this 28 page thread,

Just heard on WFAN's morning show Craig Carton talking about it.

E!spn talking heads just say shyt to draw attention, it's a troll network. And look how much attention this has garnered.

dont forget the fact that there were like 5-6 pages of you and Reb going at it... which prompted me to go straight to the last page

 

[The Amerikkkan Idol]

I've always honestly thought Rob Parker is mildly retarded. I think it's the shape of his head & the way he talks. Whenever he says something "controversial" I just kind of write it of as him being slow.

I know, I always wonder if he's like a drunk or slow or something. He sounds like a fukkin' wino.

I only read the first 3 pages of this thread and only came to say fukk ESPN. Do you really think that gets said on their airwaves unsanctioned? It can from some sideways ass producer and I hope both him and Rob Parker get kicked in the fukking balls.

Edit: What's even more infuriating is the dumb ass cats in here agreeing with it for retarded ass reasons.

It's live, mang.

I personally dont find anything Rob Parker said to be wrong, in fact, I'm positive a good amount of the posters in this thread have said similar things around your group of friends eventhough yall acting outraged on here Facts is....RGIII does have a c00nish characteristic about him. I'm glad he's performing well. He a young brother doing it, but he does. And it has nothing to do with him being smart or because he doesn't act ghetto. Donovan McNabb was probably the safest, most smiling, non-ghetto acting negro there's ever been in the NFL but, he still didn't come off like RGIII. Robert's that black athlete in high school who had an all white group of friends, a white girlfriend, and every album by Fall Out Boy.



With all that said, this shyt is in-house, barbershop talk only and by in-house, I mean between blacks behind closed doors....not shyt broadcasted on global mediums. I would never say this shyt on ESPN

Post of the thread.

Rob Parker was 100% that this was and is being discussed in barber shops, but that's for in house shyt. You don't bring that shyt to ESPN.

I remember when he was talking about black players who he doesnt think are clutch or that haven't won a ring.. He said they weren't able because they didn't have fathers in there life.

Colin Cowherd is even dumber than Rob Parker, yet he somehow has 2 shows and all this shyt.

Michelle Beadle carried his ass.

She had to get the hell away from him because he dragged her down.

That's why this shh is disturbing. Same ol shh. These clowns would never question the blackness of Allen Iverson or Chad Johnson. In fact they are the blackest negroes on the planet to these people. If you remember Kobe only became "black" after the rape trial. That's how a large segment of black people view themselves. Not by successes but by struggle.

When it comes to RG3's lady, in another thread they were questioning why he hasn't upgraded or wondering if he is out there slinging dvck into dc finest. For the most part they want this brother to fall into the same cultural pitfalls many black athletes do. Random kids with random broads. 60,000 dollar bar tabs, strip club bullshh...

Since when?

Chad Johnson's the biggest c00n in the NFL the past 10 years.

He did more shoe shuffling, buffooning, and even called that piece of shyt Goodell "Dad", and he didn't allow Black women on his VH1 dating show because he doesn't like "dark women", and then married that gutter trash Evelyn, beat her up, and then went on ESPN a few weeks ago tap dancing.

Allen Iverson got a pass from nikkaz, I know, but regular Black folks were regularly on his ass.

And Kobe is and always has been a cornball ass brother. "Allegedly" raping a White bytch changed nothing about him.

The only thing that redeems Kobe is that he plays for Black America's basketball team, the Lakers.

I'd bet if he played for The Celtics, there's no way Kobe would have any Black fans.

Plus he swagger jacked Jordan, which is like the ALL-TIME biggest no-no in the hood.

Vince got a bad deal. Jeff Fisher played that brotha out there.

Cam is a btich. And a mental midget. I can't respect a man like that. His face brings me heartache and shame. To watch another man mentally lose it in a post game interview and sulk like a toddler.

Cam's only 23 man. Leave him alone.

Up until the past 5 years or so, quarterbacks used to sit on the bench up to 4 or 5 years and sometimes didn't even play till they were 26,27 years old, because the QB position was thought to be too much for a young player.

Cam is actually OVER achieving for his position. Look at where Elway was as a young player.

That was beautiful

 

[Field Marshall Bradley]

The sad part is that most of you really think that Rob went in this direction dolo....

That dude got like 15 years in this game and knows what time it is. To think that this wasn't pre planned by ESPN as a whole would be irresponsible....

Throw darts at ESPN in its entirety if it upsets you so much....

are u a fukking idiot or DO YOU JUST PORTRAY ONE ON THIS BOARD?!?!

Any person be it BLACK or WHITE who questions a blackman's "race credibility" based on how he speaks, what music he listens to or his choice in women....is a SELF HATING son of a byatch.....

black is not define by such superficial characteristics...and last time i checked RG3 wasn't being HIRED for his "blackness".....

the guy simply wants to PLAY FOOTBALL AND BE SUCCESFULL AT IT

I'm sick of NEGROES like yourself and this idiot ROB PARKER who feel as if a SUCCESSFUL "BROTHER" or "SISTER" OWES the "community" something or feel obligated to VALIDATE his "blackness" for the most petty reasons.

ROB PARKER talking about "down for the cause" like this CBS analyst said..

"WHAT CAUSE IS HE SUPPOSE TO BE DOWN FOR??"

or specifically "WHAT CAUSE ARE BLACK PEOPLE IN GENERAL DOWN FOR??"



THIS SHYT PISSES ME OFF ON SO MANY LEVELS..IT'S A SHAME RG3 gotta go thru this....it ain't nothing but a SELF HATRED LYNCHING....

i went thru this shyt PERSONALLY and still do at JOBS where INSECURE NEGROES who don't know how to adapt in the corporate world are INTIMIDATED cause i'm articulate and cultured.....yet they ignore the fact or don't know i was born in the projects..been in more hoods i can count , was even homeless at one point...and every girl i've been with has been a "sistah"...

yet...my DARK ASS ain't BLACK ENOUGH

mane FUKK N1GGAS will be the death of us...so FUKK nikkaS
