#2 Do white men look better than black men in V-Neck Sweaters?
Neil posted this observation on Jaimie’s blog. It got me thinking about doing some research.
I don't think I'd look very good in a V-Neck sweater. And there are very few brothers that can pull that type of look off. Isaac Hayes certainly couldn't, but I imagine Colin Powell could. And that is the basis of my research.
The Theory: The only black men that look good in V-Neck sweaters are either light-skinned or Republican.
The pigmentation level of a black man is proportional to said black man’s ability to dawn a V-Neck sweater? In conjunction, I will set the premise that Isaac Hayes is the coolest motherfuckin’ black man on the face of the planet. Since I have already concluded that Isaac Hayes could not possibly sport a V-Neck sweater because of his pigmentation and his level of coolness, I can hypothesize that the further a black man is away from Isaac Hayes on the “coolness & color scale”, the closer he is to Colin Powell. Since Colin Powell is both light-skinned and Republican, it is safe to assume that a black man with either attribute (light-skinned or Republican) will look good in a V-Neck sweater.
Tune in next Friday to see the results. Have a good weekend.

Oh my god. Laughing my ass off. Thanks James. Hope you get some cool tools for Father's Day!
4:03 PM Ouch Diane, LOL though.
I know being a white guy in a "V" neck would probably catch me a good butt whoopin from my friends.
You can't put an earing on a pig and call it an improvement.
5:36 PM Man, I don't care WHAT color their skin is...as long as they don't wear a V-neck with a crew neck undershirt. Jesus!

Well well well it sounds like you have returned and in FULL force! Sounds like you aren't holding back anymore. GOOOOOOOOD:) So do you think that all Scientologists are cool and don't look good in Vnecks or just Mr. Hayes? hehehehehe ahhahahahah:) Good to see you back:)
12:50 PM Happy Father's Day!!!!!!!!
5:41 PM i think black men look especially delicious when wearing all black or all white or any color for that matter. thus, i concur that a black man would look equally delectable in a black v-neck sweater--but, uh, not in the summertime! ;)

1:23 PM James, Guess what my wife got me, A "V" neck sweater.
I'm going to catch an ass whoopin from the boys.
1:30 PM Bush... NOOOOOOOOO.... I know you're white but you know to many brothers and you're not Republican enough to pull it off properly.
10:15 PM So James,
What Did You Get????
