meaning if there were a fight he wouldn't be the first to step up-nothing wrong with that


It's a sad commentary that it must be stated that there is nothing wrong with not wanting to be involved in an altercation.

or example we got the brothers that went to St Aug and the Brothers that went to John Mac. We got the ones that want to be thugs and the ones that pick up a book. I think that's the point he was trying to make.


So you mean there are people that go to a private school and people that go to public schools? There are people who want to act like a criminal and people who want to study and become a productive member of society?

I don't understand what this has to be broken down by "types of black people"

I bet RG3 likes: Homeland, New Balance, coffee, film festivals, Arrested Development, snowboarding, standing still at concerts...


liking New Balance would go over well with the 'brothas' in DC actually.

Well those micro braids are mad corny period. If he wasn't a fb star he would get ribbed non stop. The socks are super corny. His vibe is corny. Corny is really not a bad thing.

This is a contradiction in itself.

and to say that if he wasn't a football star he would be "ribbed non-stop" can be said about any major athlete in the world.

I don't understand what exactly some fans want him to be like? and why can't folks just take him for what he is. We've seen the Mike Vicks & Cam Newton's of the world. It's nice to have someone refreshing that doesn't fit what mainstream thinks he should be.
