The coach was very elegant. She was very passionate in her defense of her young players. If you want to hear the reasons why so many people are upset with Imus, have her on your program. These girls were not trying to get in the limelight with bad behavior. They were just trying to do their best and Imus made fun of them.
Imus would have been fired if he made those comments in a business setting. Being in the media doesn’t exempt people from acceptable behavior.
Some conservatives are using their dislike of Jesse Jackson and Al Sharpton, to give Imus a free pass. I don’t care what Jesse Jackson said 19 years ago. There’s no way you could say what Imus said “accidently”. He made racists comments pure and simple. Whether Jesse Jackson or Al Sharpton condemn rap music is a separate issue. It has nothing to do with Imus.
I can’t believe how many conservatives are giving Imus a free pass. This is going to backfire big time on them. I just went to a few “conservative” sites and they are making fun of the players and the coaches. I am disgusted.
I made my points and stand by them.That coach was awesome and RIGHT
And his employer gave him a time out in the corner.
