They got rid of Cosell for something like look “the little monkey” in his commentary, and even though he’d referred to several white players in the same way he was sacked...
Leftists are idiots
I’m still waiting for Van Jones to get fired for his election night tirade about “whitelash”.. IT was without question the most racist thing I have ever heard out of a commentators mouth ever, it was flagrant, it was intentional and it was 100% racist... yet no one said a damned thing to him about it, none of his co hosts, none of his bosses, nothing, they just let him rant about evil white people for about 5 minutes or more.
That was very niggardly of ESPN. It’s a good thing he didn’t accuse her of poaching during the doubles competition. That would have enraged PETA.
I like how at least one of the unspoken premises of management is that black people don’t know the meaning of words and are incapable of using a dictionary.
Exactly.

There are some perfectly innocent English words European-Americans have to be careful using around African-Americans: guerrilla and niggardly come to mind.
My reply to him in Post#18 was:
Only those who are ignorant don't know that niggardly and guerrilla have nothing to do with race.
Niggardly means being stingy, and guerilla means rebellion war or something like that.
I think stingy comes pretty close.
Now English is my second language and I would pronounce Guirilla like Goorilla.
Anyone ever watch Serena Williams? The truth is when she does her “pump me up” elongated “screech and howl” consuming the court with total distraction even as the opponent is hitting the ball. Then she squats in the predator position, shaking her fist, continuing the war cry with her mouth so wide you can see her gall bladder, frankly she looks and acts just like an animal, as she squats in the predator pose. (Her sister, Venus, does it to some extent also.). Serena should be called on it because it is completely disruptive to the other players. Serena Williams gets by with much more than any other player and we know why. She is a Jehoviahs Witness which she uses as an excuse to avoid drug testing, she has delts like a man and at thirty-five isn’t kidding anyone. It doesn’t matter anyway because there is no way the fairytale of the Williams sister will ever be compromised, they are the American black sports women’s heros and children throughout the world emulate them........it also helps that the President of the USTA is a black woman and great friends with the Williams.
This is the same shit Tiger pulled on Fuzzy. Woods ran off to Phil Knight's lodge to hide from the media while Fuzzy lost $1M deal with KMart.
In fact, this was the first public takeout by the MSM, aided by Knight's corporatism. This crap is two decades old this year.
But the Williams girls need to ask themselves - who did karma take the bigger bite out of in the long run? Tiger can't even fully swing a club.
She isn’t drug tested?? I thought the only woman who wasn’t drug tested in sports, was Princess Anne when she competed in the Montreal Olympics!
His apology should have said “apparently some at ESPN believe black people look like gorillas, therefore they took offence to my use of the term guerilla.”
She is drug tested rarely, urine only, but avoids it as much as she can. Blood testing/needles is a no-no because of her “religion”. One time the testers came to her house and she claimed they looked like robbers, so she locked herself in the panic room, thus avoiding a test. It is ridiculous to believe that she does not use PH drugs, quite obvious.
Depends on your definition. One group says homonyms are either homographs (same spelling different word) OR homophones (same pronunciation different words); another groups says they’re AND. I’m an or.
Eventually the racist race-baiters will have all the humans expelled from the sports, playing and reporting, and the salaries of all the remaining sub-humans will properly settle down to hundreds of dollars per year.
Looked it up. You are correct.
Find it ironic that terms used to describe linguistics don’t even have fixed linguistic definitions. LOL.
PS I’m an AND.
Be careful, Al.
Benignity is a racist term.
That Racist Darrell Watrip of Nascar says Benignity Benignity Benignity Lets go racing boys
Guerilla War tactics were a strategy used by the Patriots against the British, basically lying in wait to Ambush them which was thought to be uncivilized Warfare.
That, and shooting the Indian guides who led the British forces. Replacements became sort of hard to find once the word got out LOL
Race don't matter in racing.
It's all there in black and white!
Boogity!
“Guerilla” style play is a well-know sports term based on “guerilla warfare.”
Just more blatant leftist projection.”
Yup. When I was coaching high school basketball back in the 90s we named our full court press “attack” and told the kids we wanted them to attack like terrorists. I don’t think that would go over too well today....
Yep, and the demise of Jimmy the Greek as an analyst as well. I guess the commentators need to take a course in non-offensive bland language to keep from offending someone.
