    I guess you know him to come to that conclusion.

    LOL. Drip is the first person to complain about race, but this guy is ok because Drip knows him and says so.

    The best part is, I have no idea who Rob Parker is, and had to look at the clip to find out if he's a white guy, or an African-American.

    The answer helps to explain Drip's opinion.

    Stupid is as stupid does. I'm surprised Forrest Gump, er, Drip doesn't realize that.

    I'm not the first person to talk about race. Race doesn't matter in my world. Also, anytime that I've brought it up in a discussion, its been to open up constructive dialogue, not controversy.

    Right, doesn't even matter what race Parker is; just a stupid, stupid take.

    Which is my point exactly. Parker is far from being a stupid person but I guess guys who know him like Longtime think otherwise.

    Rob Parker must have an uncle he was raised by?

    Rob Parker trending nationally on Twitter. ESPN released statement:

    ESPN spokesman Mike Soltys weighs in with the company's take: "The comments were inappropriate and we are evaluating our next steps." (Deadspin)

    God, I hope that racist clown vanishes off the airwaves forever. Or maybe ESPN will promote him.
