Suspended?!?
That's NOT fair!
Rob Parker was just asking a question. He wonders about whether RGIII is an oreo. The question was not politically correct. It probably was not in the script. It surprised everyone at the desk. I hadn't ever thought of it. But Parker was not labeling or attacking RGIII.
I wonder the same about Stephen A Smith and his obsession with Latino/Hispanic culture and his trips to Brazil FOR THE WOMEN. People have wondered and asked the same kinds of questions about me because I date both inside and outside of my race.
It's a bad time to say anything critical about RGIII, as he is wildly popular right now. But Parker was NOT criticizing. He was just asking an innocent question.
RGIII does not want to be defined by his race. NOBODY DOES.

RGIII's dad has spoken up in his defense, but PARKER WAS NOT ATTACKING ANYONE.

The INCENDIARY topic will be great for First Take ratings!!! Usually Rob Parking is a mumbly-mouthed commentator. I hate listening to his accent/speech impediment. But it is finally Parker's moment in the sun. Can't wait until Parker apologizes on First Take. Viewers' asses will be in the seats. STELLAR!

My brother is about RGIII's age and has a white fiance. *shrug* HER brother introduced the couple to each other. Their personalities match. It's adorable & obnoxious. Some of these late 80s kids and 90s babies are WAY less race-conscious, cuz they were born and raised upper middle class in integrated suburbs. Never knew any struggle. Silver spoons set all the way.
