bingolong,
I dont know what its in response too. I just know a lot of people dog Cosby, that guy can tell a story, come-on!!!

misplacedfate,
I'm sorry,That's cool I just got confused for a second there.Cosby definitely broke down some barriers and I can see your point.Hell he was an inspiration for R.P's early career so hell he gets much cool points from me.
I just think that some of the things he does and says is ruining his legacy lately....

bingolong,
I hate to steal a line from Cosby's routine but remember when his children asked him why their grandparents are so nice?
He said, "Those are not the same people I grew up with!!!
They're old now and they are trying to get into Heaven."
Well maybe he too now is trying to get into Heaven.
I mean, maybe he doing things now because he's nearing the end of the ride.
Maybe he thinks he should have been doing this all along and didn't.
Maybe he's trying to do it all at once and it is coming off as insulting and demeaning.
I think he's worried.
I usually don't respond to things that I don't know about.
But I like Bill and I think the message is good...but the delivery is bad.

Who gives a fuck how he is off-stage, doesn't effect my opinion of his talent. Pryor beat his wife and free-based coke. (No offense to anyone, but if you take offense to this your an asshole anyways)

misplacedfate,
Whoa Whoa!!Slow ya roll lil' buckaroo!!Nobody has disclaimed his talent or your opinion....

Yes Cosby is great. No one denies that. I still love him in spite of his idiosyncrasies.
