I can’t believe Jason Whitlock wrote this.
I watched the Rutgers news conference and was ashamed.
Its too bad this guy isn’t on ESPN anymore. It would be a welcome contrast to the white commentators tripping all over themselves to show who is the most politically correct.
Good grief, I’m with you. I’m stunned to see this with Whitlock’s byline on it.

WEEI is talking about this column now. Dennis and Callahan believe there will be a Wish List on MSNBC’s CEO’s desk very soon.
Imus looks like more of an idiot as each day passes. The original comment he made was something you can hear in any comedy club in America every night of the week. But, the cry-baby Don Imus is out-doing himself each day with all of the grovelling. Even his biggest fans are not going to be able to maintain any respect for him after this spectacle.
The funniest aspect of all this is watching the ever lengthening parade of “civil rights” mouthpieces and liberal media-types getting their panties in a wad over this.
Now that the Anna Nicole story is finally petering out, the “news” networks need a new controversy to regurgitate for the next couple of weeks.
Imus to the rescue.
Homie Run!!
Pray for W and Our Troops
Yeah, I’m pretty sure the night guy hacked into “Big Sexy”’s computer and wrote this. Unless he’s jockeying to get back on the radio...

Agreed. ESPN is terrified of anything controversial.
I guess that I’m totally un-PC.
All I see is a bunch of race-baiting pimps circling in blood infested waters over a non-event where Imus was egged on by Bernie.
I’ll bet that none of the Rutgers team would have ever known what was said except for the pimps making an event about it, and if they did hear about it, would have shrugged it off as they put up with more harassment by the male black students every day as they walk to classes.
But then I’m not PC!
John Gibson’s radio show last night was all about this topic. He played clips from the Media Matters guy saying Gibson, along with Glen Beck and of course Rush, have been saying racist things on the radio for a long time. What nonsense. I would like to hear one example of a racist thing Rush has ever said. I suppose they count it as bigotry if Rush dares to criticize Charlie Rangel or someone like that.
The powers that be at Rutgers are probably already discussing how to spend the money.
I’ve watched the various ESPN shows that features sportswriters debating various topics several times, and doing so has convinced me that sportswriters are even more leftwing and politically correct than their hard-news counterparts.
Its as though they feel the need to prove to their hard-news colleagues that while they may not be doing the important work of promoting Democrats and tearing down conservatives, they nonetheless hold all of the proper views and will prove it whenever they get the chance.
I don’t know. I think Whitlock is a pretty straight shooter. Anyone who gets fired from ESPN for calling out Scoop Jackson is OK in my book.
His article about the Black KKK (his criticism of NBA All-Star Weekend in Las Vegas) was also excellent.
Which ESPN completely ignored by the way.
