Racism & Sports Wank!
I know. You're all incredibly shocked.

The head coach of the University of Oklahoma's baseball team used the "n-word" twice in off-camera interviews with ESPN last week. Of course, there's wank over on the OSU chat boards, but the prime material is on SoonerFans.com. The spooge really starts to fly on page 4 between Herr Scholz and...pretty much everyone else on the forum. Strangely enough, this is despite the fact that they all seem to agree on the major points.

Highlights:

Using a racist epithet =/= burning churches.

Someday, we'll all be fired for using the word "redneck."

But rappers use the n-word all the time! (you saw that one coming, didn't you?)

Bob thinks the phrase "to jew someone down" is common parlance.

"Nobody (especially a liberal white boy who doesn't have a clue about real racism - except for what some birkenstock wearing fag prof at UT told you) has the authority to dictate when it's "appropriate" or not."

"And I'm very happy you're entertaining black folks at lunch. That's mighty white of you."

"I don't entertain 'black folks'. I eat lunch with my friends. This may be a foreign concept to you."

And for sheer WTFery:

"Is it okay for a Native American who plays for the redskins to call their teamate nigger?"

What if it's Friday and the world is about to be destroyed by butter? [insert further conditions here]

Depends. Is it salted or unsalted butter?

Salted, I think. Does anyone know if it's kosher butter? Because if so, it'll have to wait until Saturday night.

No, but the teamate did.

"One lump or two, nigga? Say, old chap, you don't mind if I call you nigga, do you?"

"No, no, my good man, I don't mind at all. And I'll have two if you don't mind."

"Jolly good."

"Splendid."

*laughs* I live just north of Norman, and I wouldn't have known about it if my husband hadn't told me.

Don't you just love how the folks on the OSU board think that Norman is like the racist capital of America?

This reminds me of a batshit African-American classmate of mine who told me that if a white person killed a black person, they should be tried for murder, but if the reverse should happen, it's just "a black person rising up against oppression". WTFF?
