    The layers of black keep getting thicker.

    RGIII layered by Parker layered by Pitts layered by _____ and then _____ and then _____ until we get to Spike Lee or Maya Angelou ... or Oprah.

    As for being black enough, he is probably a greater expert than he was before. He is, after all, a man out of work. It doesn't get much blacker than that.

    Pitts needs to check his facts. Parker is not out of work.

    He was fired and only a fucking imbecile would deny it, which of course includes you.

    Technicalities. Bottom line, Rob isn't working at ESPN. In this business you never know. He may return so you can't say never.

    Very interesting take by RGIII on Rob Parker in Sporting News.

    RG3 is right -- Parker shouldn't have been fired for "cornball brother."

    He should have been fired long before that for total incompetence.

    Rob was a talking head doing what he was paid to do.
