My parking brakes are a drag (pics!)

So I replaced my rear rotors and parking brake shoes on my '92 W201 because the lip inside the rear rotors was so large it was hard to get the rear rotors off.

Now I've been having problems with the car being stuck in place after being parked for several days.

I'm thinking that my parking brakes are sticking.

I removed the rear rotors and shot these pics.

It looks like the parking brake cable is maybe giving up the ghost.

Does the cover usually pull away from the cable like mine is doing in this pic?

TIA.
