I'm shocked, shocked that this happened on First Take.

Rolling Eyes

What a PR softball for RGIII, as if he needed any additional help in making people root for him.

Good riddance to what's-his-face who made the comment. I only wish ESPN would follow up by burning the rest of the show to the ground.

I stopped watching BSPN a long time ago.

And Rob Parker is an a** clown.

When morons talk trash, I try not to pay them much attention - it makes me feel dirty.

If this keeps up the US Department of Labor will be after Robert Griffin III, as well Laughing

On Sunday he basically destroys the Ravens and causes the OC, Cam Cameron to lose his job ..

and now,

this poor ESPN reporter is just trying to do his job and report on an ugly potential 'scenario' - AND - we now hear, he's let go

OH MY - when will it all stop Twisted Evil

Glad to see ESPN suspend this guy. I just cannot fathom what gives this person (or anyone) the right or duty to question whether someone is authentic or not.

Mediots should be praising young, smart, talented....and black....QB's like RGIII and Wilson. They are setting a fine example for how to be successful and act like a responsible adult. That is a message that needs to be delievered especially in the wake of the many recent tradegies in the NFL.

As long as we describe ourselves by our color... we will never stop identifying others by their color. As long as we identify others by their color, we will endure racism.

Should be fired for stupidity. Or we could call it incompetence.
