He singled out a group, a team.....directed the comment to the whole team.
I read this whole thread, I would rather have this kind of discussion in person (makes it a lot more real)
Jesse and Al have not left the times of the 60's, the mind set that they are stuck in is not all that bad. They are actually, in my eyes, ensuring that acts of racism do not go unheard. Yes they blow it out of proportion sometimes, but it is what it is.
As I said before, he directed the comment to the team! There was not an ounce of doubt as to who he was speaking about (RUTGERS WOMENS BASKETBALL TEAM), also, it was public. They were humiliated in front of all who heard it. If any one here was exposed nationally and called out of their name in a negative light, they would be pissed. Notice I do not pull the race card, screw race......call any PERSON out of their name and I guarantee they will not like it. They may not call you a name back, fight you, or protest.....but it will not be appreciated.
Screw RACE, IMUS (to a certain extent), AL (to a certain extent), and Jesse (to a certain extent). They all took the situation and made it worse. AL/Jesse for exposing it in a racial light & IMUS for saying it and trying to justify it.....
Stereotypes are killing society everyday, most of those players (if not all) are super scholars, great athletes, and great people. They did not deserve to be called out of their name.
Oh, and for ALL the people who feel its okay to call some a derogatory name because SOMEONE ELSE (rappers, true racist, people in general) said it.....You are a follower of a sorry ass crowd of humans that will NEVER be leaders.....just think about it......
If I stepped on toes, call me out........
