    Let me know Harvard's nuanced thoughts on black guys with white wives. I'm dying to know.

    I agree. ESPN as a news agency only exists to promote the stuff it has the broadcast rights to.

    When they lost the NHL rights, hockey almost disappeared from SportsCenter. How much of the Olympics do they cover? But they bend over backwards to tell us how important the NFL, NBA, MLB and college football/basketball are, because they happen to have the rights to those leagues.

    Whether you like it or not ESPN is there to make money for their shareholders. They are doing a hell of a job of doing that. Why would they change what they are doing?

    If that's what they want, fine. Doesn't mean I am required to watch or work for them. Life goes on.

    Seems like tonight they are covering a pair of high school basketball games. OK, fine, whatever.

    ESPN weeps that you will not work for them. Although, a first take debate between you and Rob Parker would be entertaining as hell

    Wobb Pahkah is ESPN's "Nat X" -- their designated Angry Black Man.

    In other words, another version of Stepin Fetchit -- the black man paid to do the minstrel dance his massahs enjoy.

    If Rob Parker's not talking about authenticity, what he's talking about? I'm interested what people think, especially Drip and his friend offscreen.
