For the ****ing win.
I wonder what Stephen A. said after that. I hated Stephen A. Smith, and I still do dislike him, but hearing him on ESPN NY there are times where I really do like the type of argument he makes. I don't know how this conversation started but I find all the questions he is asking to be not only insulting to RG3 but if I was an African American I would be furious with it. It just gives off the image that not only do "blacks" embrace the brother role but that if you aren't one of them, **** it you might as well be a white dude. Like RG3 being well-spoken is a bad thing. I don't know what the hell he was thinking talking about this stuff on national TV. I think its made worse because of the position this guy is in. The fact that a guy in an news position, sports or not, is sitting there trying to figure out if he is more or less down with the cause just insults not only his race but honestly every part of the country that actually has a desire to not to draw lines constantly.

McNabb used to get this same sort of treatment. Pathetic.

Vick is a straight up thug that keeps it real. I remember when Chunky's soup wanted Vick to do a commercial and he was like DO I LIKE LIKE A MUTHA ****ER THAT EATS SOUP N' SHIT , he then tried to bite this old guy on the wrist and started barking and throwing up the Wu Tang sign.

Just think if he didn't have his dreads, he would be seen differently from both sides of the coin.

Robert Griffin III's dad responds to Rob Parker
8:44PM EST December 13. 2012 - ASHBURN, VA. -- Robert Griffin II said he isn't taking offense with disparaging racial comments made by an ESPN First Take commentator Thursday, because "it's not going to benefit" anyone. Earlier in the day, during the show, commentator Rob Parker, who is black, had questioned Robert Griffin III's authenticity by asking, "Is he a brother, or is he a cornball brother?" Parker then continued his criticism of the Washington Redskins rookie quarterback: "He's not real. OK, he's black, he kind of does the thing, but he's not really down with the cause," Parker said. "He's not one of us. He's kind of black, but he's not really, like, the guy you want to hang out with because he's off to something else. "We all know he has a white fiancee. There was all this talk about how he's a Republican ... Tiger Woods was like, 'I've got black skin but don't call me black.'" Griffin II told USA TODAY Sports he was baffled by the comments but wouldn't fire back Thursday night, even though Parker's remarks ignited the blogosphere and sparked angry social media responses. A few minutes later after his father spoke, Griffin III tweeted to supporters: "I'm thankful for a lot of things in life and one of those things is your support. Thank you." ESPN spokesman Mike Soltys told USA TODAY Sports that Parker's comments "were inappropriate and we are evaluating our next steps." Griffin II said his next steps were to dismiss Parker's remarks. "He needs to define what 'one of us' is. That guy needs to define that," he said. "I wouldn't say it's racism. I would just say some people put things out there about people so they can stir things up. "Robert is in really good shape on who he is, where he needs to get to in order to seek the goals he has in life ... so I don't take offense." During his weekly news conference Wednesday, Griffin III said he didn't want to be defined by race. "You want to be defined by your work ethic, the person you are, your character, your personality," he said. "I am an African-American in America. But I don't have to be defined by that."
