I respecifully disagree. Words are words and that’s all they are. Today there is a false aire of Policitically Correctness. What it is, is groups with strong lobbies trying to guild or control the beliefs of others. They use the concept that any and everything old is bad while everything new is good. They are oblivious to what’s new today will be old tomorrow. As a thesaurus show us many words are simuliar but have different tones and edges. To make a joke you have to use a word with more edge to make it funny. Negro Please!!! Isn’t as funny as N*ggar Please!!! I’m sure when Chris Rock made the joke LeBronze reflexed on, it was meant for adult audiences. I know you don’t think LeBronze is mean spirited and is out to hurt small challenged children and needs to change and apologize. What people need to do is teach their children what my parents taught me when I was small. “Sticks and Stones May Brake Your Bones, But Words Will Never Hurt You.”

This is what your good at Watkins. Commenting on sports and entertainment. For the most part I’ll take your opinions wholeheartedly on these issues. Your position on the Sharpton vs Cornell debate led me to this conclusion. I was disappointment, your no different to politicians who protect their self interest/access.
