Dear Don Imus: There's no excuse for you
Today's Must Reads
Don Imus, what were you thinking? Not only did you make this mistake with the Rutgers Women's Basketball team, you've been stupid enough to do it again. You should become an example for all so called "sports radio personalities". Sure, you're entertaining...but that's just because everyone is waiting to see what stupid, foul, and absurd piece of distasteful humor will fall out of your flapping gums next. You should be forced to resign your position, take some sort of sensitivity training, and ride off into the proverbial sunset. Pacman Jones, excuse me, Mr. Jones has had his own serious issues in the past, but that's not a reason to make racist statements about him. Possibly the worst part of the entire situation is the explanation. Not only did you make possibly the most insensitive statement I've heard since that guy made an inappropriate comment about the Rutgers Women, (oh, wait, that was you), you responded to it by trying to make it seem like we all had you all wrong. Because according to you, now all of a sudden, you aren't a racist, you support Adam Jones. Sir, as a person with a serious interest in sports I say "Don't act like I'm stupid. I know what you said". So, in conclusion sir, there is no excuse for you. There is no excuse for what you said. Enough is enough.
