NEW YORK (AP) - A former New York Knicks executive at the center of a sexual harassment lawsuit repeatedly complained to a friend from work that coach Isiah Thomas had berated her with foul language, according to trial testimony Tuesday.

On the tape, the former Detroit Pistons great also said that he would find it more offensive if a white male called a black female a "bitch," than if a black male used the same term when speaking to a black female.

Zeke's an idiot.

[MrB]

Oh, so what they’re saying is that black men should not be expected to have the same standards of behavior that white men should...

OK, I get it. This is what leftists call “equality”.

[Holicheese]

What if a white guy called them a nappy headed ho? Would that be offensive?

Affirmative Action Swearing.

Swearing at the fair sex is ALWAYS wrong. If you feel angry at a woman, walk it off or work it out yourself. Don't take it out on her. Men are meant to be gentlemen.

No, that's not what "they" are saying, it's what Thomas said in his deposition. I'm not saying that this might not be a common way of thinking, just that it's not what the article said.

“Zeke: Swearing at Women Depends on Race”

It’s time the double standard came out of the closet: certain political persuasions don’t think blacks should be held to the same standards as whites. It’s the basic premise of affirmative action. It’s also blatant racism.

Admit it, what was the first words that came to mind when you saw this?

[Dick Vomer]

I'll take that question Alex for $200.

What is "dyke"?

[Doctor Raoul]

I can name that tune in four letters...

[misterrob]

And we’ll see you next Tuesday!

[Clemenza]

Is it me, or does Zeke sound (in terms of voice and tenor) like Louis Farrakhan when he talks?

Then again, I also think that JC Watts sounds like Dave Chappelle, which I guess makes me a "vocal racist."

So I guess it's ok to greet Thomas with What's up my n****r?

“said that he would find it more offensive if a white male called a black female a “bitch”

But only half as much if one of them were biracial.

[ustanker]

He never got over the White man Larry Bird stealing that pass!

Admit it, what was the first words that came to mind when you saw this?

I'm definately guilty - and I just remembered that Hillary is married to the first black POTUS. I am a real bastard.

Man, I use to love this guy. I patterned my game on his and thought he was great. Knew someone from Detroit who had met him too and said he was a good guy.

Thought the worst it would get was with the erratic GM work of the Knicks.
But this is just looking far worse.

Even with the revelation of the woman’s “side business” and phony business expenses, the tide is going against him.

More proof why I hate professional sports. Way too much social engineering, commie lib commentators, racial double standards, and gangstas infesting the field/court/ring/whatever.

Professional sports is just like professional sex: there's no love involved and it's all about the money!
