Parcells spoke to Kuboshima, offering what the reporter perceived to be an apology. Kuboshima said he was surprised more by the reaction of other reporters than the comment. Me too.

Bill Parcells apologized Monday for calling the surprise plays used in practice "Jap plays," saying the remark was inappropriate. The remark was not inappropriate. Move on.

'Jap plays' is offensive. Please refer to them as 'Japanese plays'.

Meanwhile, John Effing Kerry can flip off Vietnam vets and call Secret Service Agents "sonsofb*tches" with impunity.
What a weird world we live in.

...Parcells said about quarterbacks coach Sean Payton and defensive coordinator Mike Zimmer. "Mike wants the defense to do well, and Sean, he's going to have a few ... no disrespect for the Orientals, but what we call Jap plays. OK. Surprise things."What always makes me laugh about incidents like this is that it was supposedly wrong for Parcells to utter the word "Japs" because it's considered a racial slur, but then the media turns right around and prints this very same word in it's newspapers and on it's websites. If it's a racial slur to use the word "Japs", then the media, by using the word "Japs" in it's coverage of the Parcells incident, is using a racial slur.

The Japanese are offended at other people being RACIST ?
Somewhere the chutzpah factor has gone down since it's been sucked into Japan.

John Tateishi of the Japanese-American Citizen's League, a national civil rights group told DallasNews.com. "Unfortunately, he is ignorant about racial slurs. I take great offense by what he said. Parcells ought to know better. He sorely needs more education on what is offensive and non-offensive to Japanese-Americans. I am shocked that he would say this."
Methinks this Tateishi guy just sits around waiting for chances to get offended. If somebody says "jap" or "nip" to me, without malice aforethought, then there really is no reason to take offense; if somebody calls me a "jap" to be intentionally derogatory, then that person is clearly not worthy of consideration, and should be pitied.
Mr. Tateishi, from one Japanese American to another: be a man, for crying out loud!

While we're at it let's change the name Dallas Cowboys because after all the cowboys slaughtered a lot of our Native American friends and the name Cowboy might be offensive to them and also Cowboy is animal-sexist because it doesn't include the bulls so it should be Cattleboy but hell that's offensive too because animals are people too and have rights and look how they're treated by the whole beef industry so lets just call them the Boys but no that may conjure up images of the old Jim Crow South in the minds of our fans that are people of color so lets just call them the Dallas Athletes of Indeterminate Origin.
