It doesn’t matter what he said. The shade of his skin makes him guilty for saying the word “Haiti.”
The media types saw an opportunity to destroy a White male by trying to make people think that he’s a racist.

It would have been better to blame it on Bush and Global Warming.

He didn’t say anything wrong, but as a Duke fan I’m loving the “catastrophe” this season has turned out to be for UNC.

As opposed to Duke's train wreck of a season?

NC State? NC State! Geez, even UNC beat them handily.

Having 2 losses in conference and 4 total is a train wreck of a season?

I hate Carolina let me count the ways. The lush Dean Smith is an Edwards butthead to start.

Hey, I hate basketball. I could care less who wins and loses. I just like to pick on the fans of the losers. Have gotten to do that a lot with UNC. And Duke for losing to a HS Girls Team, also known as NC State.
