I saw his debut this week. He's the first regular black man on the show who is not there for comic relief...

Who exactly is he and what does he do? I've seen pictures of him. He has a short neck, but otherwise doesn't look bad.

Years before he married, one of my close friends dated him. He is a very, very nice guy -- every bit the gentleman!!!!

Moonsigns, I am a tad confused: Is your friend the "he" who is now married? Or is your friend a "she" and the now married "he" refers to Mr. Barber? Not that it matters either way, but I just want to fully understand.

(LOL See, this is how rumors get started!)

A_womon: He's the first regular black man on the show who is not there for comic relief...

You so WRONG for saying that. It's TRUE. But you're so WRONG for saying it.

CTFU!!!


Renata,

Barber just retired from playing pro football. He decided to retire while still being one of the game's very best running backs. And that's largely why he's gotten so much attention. Well that and he played pro football for the NEW (Media Hype Capital of the WORLD!!!) YORK Giants.



Moonsigns: "He is a very, very nice guy -- every bit the gentleman!!!!"

You're just saying that because his wife is NOT Black.

A football player gets a gig before a trained black journalist.

And this is progress.

Tiki is college educated, articulate, understands the entertainment industry, is extremely likeable, and his exisiting fame will draw new viewers and raise ratings. With that being said, he totally deserves to be in the position he is in. And he also financially supports and is an active participant in many charities -- charities that involve children and the black community.

Tiki Barber!!! Him and his ol illegal immigrant wife.

And just like the good White Biyatch that you are Moony you go promoting the beliefs of your White plantation owning father!!!

Tiki is just another "Sambo" negrosiod being promoted by the White supremacist media in their "whack" attempts to destroy Black ppl.

I have no respect for brothas like him who make millions of dollars just to play Biyatches for White(non-Black) women!!!

Just like your husband Moony!!!

Glad to hear Tiki got the gig. He was an outstanding athlete for the NY Giants. I used to watch him all the time (although I have no love for the Giants) Very nice and a very popular brother. I wish him success with his new job a correspondent for NBC news TODAY and an analyst for NBC’s “Football Night in America.” Tiki and his twin brother, Ronde, currently host a weekly football show on Sirius NFL Radio called “The Barber Shop.” Very talented brother and I'm sure he will do well.

Serena,

I'm not promoting anything but democracy -- and don't tell me you don't believe in democracy! Tsktsk. Nonetheless, regardless of how you believe others should think (and live), and regardless if you have "no respect" for "brothas like him", he continues to shine successfully! And I'm not one bit surprised that you can't comprehend this obvious (and simple) truth.


btw, Ginny isn't "illegal".

*wink*

Usually, I don't find him that attractive; however, that is a really nice photo of him.

Boy if I can be Asian for a night to get into his pants, or his twin brother's! LMAO! Both are married to Asian women. Congrats on his new gig. I think they would rather give sport journalism jobs to former athletes who speak well rather than journalists who know a bit about the sport.

Moonsigns,

I think you do have a thing for Black foks who mate interracially or are the product of interracial relationships.


Fortified,

Don't you think it's odd that BOTH Barber brothers would marry up with some Sun Yi's. I mean, really, WTF is the odds of that just 'accidently' happening?

I bet those dudes are laying down some seriously 'traditional' husband-wife rules.

Of course he is successful Moony because he is being promoted by White Supremacist A**holes like you and your plantation-owning daddy!!

White men love Black men like Tiki and his brother because these are castrated Black men.

Another weak-ass brotha that White women like you love to dominate and control.

Moonsigns:
I have "a thing" for people, and couples, regardless of color, who represent interests/values that I think are positive for society -- education (intelligence), self-motivation, honesty, kindness, hardwork, faith, and family. Tiki and his family represent such. And in regards to them being an interracial couple, I only point out his incredible qualities because many people on this forum are quick to bash everything any black man -- or black woman -- does if they're open to dating/marrying interracially -- or already are. It's a senseless double-standard.

I know, I know -- because you're such a magnet for insightful discourse, thoughtless opinions are all that you can contribute, MAN.

*********

No surprise, they're twins, identical twins at that. I am not surprised that they would have the same taste in women. I wouldn't be surprised that their former girlfriends looked alike, too. Ginny and Rose (I think that is the other one's name) have careers of their own, and seem socially active with their husbands in the sports community (based on articles I have read). I doubt they are the "Geisha girl" type.
