ISIAH'S DOUBLE DRIBBLE - SAYS IT'S OK FOR BLACK MAN TO CALL BLACK WOMAN A BITCH, BUT WHITE MAN CAN'T

By KATI CORNELL

White men better not call a black woman "bitch''around Knicks coach Isiah Thomas, but if black men do it well, that's fair game.

"I'm sorry to say, I do make a distinction,'' Thomas said in a stunning videotaped admission that was viewed by a Manhattan federal jury yesterday.

"A white man calling a black female (bitch), that is wrong with me. I am not accepting that. That's a problem for me,'' Thomas said

But asked if he'd have a problem with a black man calling a black woman "bitch,'' Thomas said, "Not as much.''

[Tamar1973]

Proof that racists come in all colors!

[sinanju]

Why shoot honey! Everyone knows that (wink, wink). Just like the “N” word. Give the man credit for telling it like it is. Even Russell Simmons wouldn’t come right out and admit it.

Black skin privilege. Some folks aren’t held to the same standards.

[Triggerhippie]

Isiah Thomas is a bitch.

[jjw]

Proof that racists come in all colors!

I think this is called internalized racism. It's whitey's fault as well.

[popdonnelly]

I don’t care what Isiah thinks. Maybe he should stick to basketball.

[BunnySlippers]

A ho, really.

[popdonnelly]

I wouldn’t call a black woman a bitch. That’s black man’s work.

[B-Chan]

[Ace's Dad]

There has only been one occasion when the “B” word was acceptable and that was in fiction: When Molly Weasley used the word in the heat of wizard battle in the Harry Potter finale. White or Black gentlemen don’t use the word, sorry Isiah. I used to admire him when he played for the Pistons.

[teenyelliott]

I wonder if he would have a problem with me calling him a racist a#@hole.

[Ken522]

OJ Simpson, I’ve heard, calls his whole gaggle of followers “... (his) bitches!”

[Holicheese]

That boy is WHACK....BOYEEEEEEEE

[Enterprise]

Isiah Thomas: "A white man can't call me a bitch."

Shut up - BITCH!

[BallyBill]

“Men” of any color don’t call women bitches.

[knarf]

Just re-discovering the phoney elitist rascism Americans won't look for.

If I thought I could get away with it, I'd just say F'n N***** .

But I'd better not.

[xp38]

What about Ripley in the heat of battle in Aliens?

[vetsvette]

“Proof that racists come in all colors!”

Can’t be, can’t be! The left has told us that black people can’t be racists, just white folks. They sure sold me.

[teenyelliott]

WAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

Oh no you di'nt!

[Zuben Elgenubi]

The gaydar rating on Thomas is a 9.

[BigDaddyTX]

[Dmitry Vukicevich]

Some are more equal than others.

[freekitty]

Hey, here’s a novel idea. Why not stop calling both black and white the nasty word.

[Will88]

Isiah’s always been a smart-mouthed, spoiled little bigot. Remember, after the Pistons were eliminated by the Celtics, a series that included the “Bird stole the ball” game? That’s when Isiah whined that if Bird weren’t white, he’d be considered just another player. And he was always a fairly dirty player, often noticeable on TV games, but the announcers overlooked it or made excuses for him.

Good to see him getting the sort of publicity he’s always deserved.

[humblegunner]

Isiah Thomas is a little bitch.

And that's a redneck cracker sayin' dat, yo.

Word.

[DryFly]

Anyone know what lawsuit has a basketball coach testifying about his approval/disapproval of certain curse words? This has apparently slipped past my notice so far.

[Bahbah]

“Men” of any color don’t call women bitches.

Yes. You went to the heart of this.

[Blue State Insurgent]

NP.

[IronJack]

How about this white man call that black coach a bitch?

[Will88]

Another question they should have asked Isiah, just to probe his attitudes a little deeper: Is it okay for a black man to call a white woman a bitch?

[VOA]

bump

[teenyelliott]

yo homey

[Wally_Kalbacken]

Better that Isaiah show his ignorance in front of a jury than on one.

[humblegunner]

yo homey

I'm just representin'.

[eldoradude]

What a shocker, an athlete is a racist.

We give far too much credence to the words and thoughts of so-called celebrities...as if their being in the public eye qualifies their comments as significant.

Isaiah Thomas is just another jerk whose mouth runs on without cranial input.

[teenyelliott]

keep it real, mah brutha

or i cutcha

Isiah’s Double Dribble - Says it’s ok for Black Man to Call Black Woman a Bitch, But White Man Can’t...

just don’t call her a nappy headed ho!!!

[Cecily]

“Isiah’s Double Dribble” = double drivel

[VR-21]

This white man’s never been very comfortable with the practice of calling women bitches. Must be my age.

[Candor7]

I hate to have to say this , but NO ONE calls any woman a bitch when I happen to be present. And thats regardless of whatever colors happen to be there.

And why should I have to say it?

What IS the world coming to. Manners are somehow gone from America. If you want to visit a mannerly country, spend a few weeks in Japan, where drivers inside of cars boy to each other to yield the right of way at intersections.

[humblegunner]

or i cutcha

Tru dat.

[Darnright]

Isaiah, you twit.

This is a black bitch:

Your sister, or your mother, or your girlfriend, are not bitches, no matter what color YOU are.

[teenyelliott]

Oh stewardess!!!!! I speak jive.

[fkabuckeyesrule]

Isiah Thomas is a racist scum. He destoyed the CBA. Why he even has a job in the NBA is a great tribute to affirmative action gone way too far.

One more thing for Isiah. He might have two championship rings. However, Isiah Thomas never has been nor he he ever be a champion in the true sense of the word.

[Globalist Goon]

Is it OK to call the Knicks bitches? They sure play like it.

[Globalist Goon]

White Men Can’t Cuss

[Brian Mosely]

Oh, so misogyny is a cultural thing. I get it now...

[humblegunner]

You’re a straight player, yo.
