Just a preview of life for African-Americans if the Islamists were ever to take over here.
It was a rude (and racist) statement whether or not the guy's a Muslim. However, Islam does have a thing with racism toward descendants of Ham (including Africans).
"Mutombo said after the game he would go into the stands next time even if he got fined for it"
Lets see someone heckles , not threatens a multi-millionaire ENTRERTAINER by simply calling him a monkey, and he threatens violence back. This whole monkey thing is getting out of hand . Whats next not even using the word monkey but referring to it as the "M" word, people need to grow some thick skins because theres a hell of alot more important things in this world than being called a monkey. Lord knows my 5 year old niece calls me one every weekend.
Obviously the Orlando Magic management have never been to Yankee Stadium. I've seen Yankee fans (especially if the Red Sox are in town) call the opposing players much, much worse names--names that would get me banned here if typed.
"Boo-frickin'-hoo... He called me a monkey!" LOL!!!!
I suggest that the season ban is an politically correct over reaction on the part of the Magic staff.
He should have said "micky" then it would have been OK. (/sarc)
If I were the opposing team I would have about 5 plants at every game calling him a monkey. Pretty soon he would be one less player to worry about.
To be honest the whole story seems a farce to me.
A player is called a monkey and a paying spectator is tossed out the team and the league apologise to him, is this scrappleface? The player threatens to go into the stands after spectators and they kiss his ass? Crazy.
This is really lame.
Hooman Hamzehloui needs to sit down and STFU.
Dikembe Mutombo needs to grow up.
I found this, looks like this could very well be the guy...

Not too many Hooman Hamzehlouis walking around Florida, I'm pretty sure...
"WHO WANTS TO HECKLE MUTOMBO???"

Another transplant making the south look bad again. The media is of course portraying this as a typical "Southern Redneck Out of Control."
I was a season ticket holder for the Magic for 9 years and Magic fans are the most docile, laid back fans of any sports team. Fact is, you can't spew racial epithets at blacks or you pay the price if its in a public forum.
Now if someone called a white player Hitler, or Dahmer, well that would be perfectly okay.
Someone needs to ask this question of the guy who suspended the heckler. I'd really be curious as to how they would answer that.
Is "Hamzehloui"?
I guess I don't get why anybody would want to yell racial slurs at Dikembe, when "Who wants to sex Mutombo?" is and always will be so much funnier.
None of the Girly men of the NBA better watch the movie Zoolander.
Their little girly man feeeelings might be hurt at the "dance monkey dance" scene.
Pathetic NBA. No wonder basketball is irrelevant.
