ESPN is at rock bottom...

Do you have to actually be black to act like a brother? If not Jeff Pearlman would qualify.

 

Suspended by ESPN until further notice, according to Richard Deitsch on Twitter.

 

pleze?

 

Step 1: ESPN approves Parker's dumb comments before the show
Step 2: Parker makes dumb comments on the show.
Step 3: ESPN replays dumb comments throughout the day.
Step 4: ESPN suspends Parker for the dumb comments.

Not sure who looks worse here: Parker or ESPN.

 

Parker is an ass clown but ESPN is cowardly in suspending him. They got exactly what they wanted out of him. If they felt it was a suspendable offense why was it replayed?

 

BTW, here's a couple other examples of the type of hard hitting questions ESPN has had Rob and Skip debating on this ridiculous show:

Do blacks or whites get to claim Blake Griffin?

Do blacks hate Tebow because of attention he gets for being white:

ESPN has been very intentionally pushing these guys toward this line for years, but now they can act all shocked, as they administer suspensions, when one of their bleating blowhards steps over it. I'm quite sure Rob thought he was doing exactly what his bosses wanted him to do here, he was just too dumb to know where the line was.

 

ESPN does. It wants to walk a weird line when talking about race, and it's a very reductive line it chooses to walk.

 

I don't know why ESPN finds talk about whether folks are white or black or Hispanic enough the slightest bit interesting.

 

What on earth is going on?

 

Just Stepin Fetchit doing the minstrel dance for his massahs.

 

We need picketing in Bristol, followed by calling up the National Guard, and then a complete government takeover of ESPN.

Who's with me?!!!!
