Fortunately RGIII is too bright to let it get to him.

[quote=Oster;975172]I think he means acceptable and unacceptable racism, at least when it comes to being what is viewed as PC.

It seems to be traditionally be acceptable for a black person to criticize another black (or even a white person) in regards to something that might demerit their credibility as a member of a certain race and it's always simply just viewed as "keeping it real".

When a white person tries to "keep it real", it's viewed as racism nearly every time and they are at a podium 24 hours later making a press conference apology.

Not to wax on wheter it's right or wrong, that's the way I see it and it just feels like new-age racism-lite. I could care less what race your girlfriend is, what kind of car you drive, or your political affiliation; it's all about how decent you are as a person and how well you represent the team and organization. I for one am pretty proud to own an RG3 jersey as he seems to be just a generally good person (also doesn't hurt that he is an amazing athlete on the field also :))[/quote]

Woah don't put words in my mouth. There is no "acceptable" racism. I think the word traditional speaks for itself. We've had a problem with racism in this country in the past, in this world really, and that racism in its general form is what I am talking about.

ESPN puts on their cartoon characters and they say a bunch of wacko stuff.

Well, sorry to put words in your mouth then. I guess I don't know what you mean by "non-traditional" racism so I likened it to what I thought you meant. That said, if you think there aren't forms of racism that are viewed as acceptable in society every day I have a time-share you might be interested in.

If he gets a hair cut he might turn white.

ESPN is desperate for viewers but it will get the Drudge Report crowd stirred up. Wing nuts foaming at the mouth. BAHAHAH!

Instead of talking about Gryphon's unique playing style, accomplishments so far, stats, etc., some folks are talking about Gryphon and race.

Brilliant.

Obviously, because he's about to become the first black rookie QB to win a SB. You realize what that means, right?

[COLOR=White]Nothing. That's what it means.[/COLOR]

I have curly hair does that mean I'm 33% black?

Just read a transcript and i've got to take issue with Smiths comments too:

[QUOTE]"I’m uncomfortable with where we just went. RG3, the ethnicity or the color of his fiancee is none of our business, it’s irrelevant, he can live his life in whatever way he chooses. The braids that he has in his hair, that’s his business, that’s his life, he can live his life. [B]I don’t judge someone’s blackness based on those kinds of things. [/b] I just don’t do that. I’m not that kind of guy.”
[/QUOTE]

So, how [I]should[/I] we judged someones blackness? What kind of things [I]should[/I] we use when judging someones blackness? Wait a minute... why are we judging the level of someone blackness in the first place? How is that even "a thing?"

If you ask me, every last one of them (Parker, Bayless, Smith) is racist.

No, they're not but they certainly appear to love to foment racist feelings.
