That's a good point. "Nigger" is not a cool thing to call a black man. But is it really the foulest insult that can be levied against a black man? Yes, there are centuries of oppression behind that word. But insults which are not so much insults but actual threats seem, as you say, to be worse.

To be fair, it was "half off all tickets for estranged lunatic husbands" day.

You make an ... okay point. I don't agree with it, but it's an okay point.

Oh wow, you have a username almost exactly like mine! It's pretty wild seeing as how we've never crossed paths up until now, and I'm sure you've been posting for some time.

K, we're cool. Sorry if I put any words into your mouth.

AJ McCarron: "We have a lot of people doubting us."

I've found people in the north to be significantly more bigoted/racist.

Ah. Okay. But why did you explain this to me in a DUAN from Wednesday?

But he passed his remedial pre-algebra class with flying colors!

At least until Justin Bieber puts out a concert film!

Did anybody else hear the announcers on ESPN say "that's a tough sell, folks," when reading the promo for the Dolphins-Bucs Monday night game?

Fifteen out of what?

They're in the night school. They lost their jobs working in a warehouse, and are going back to school in an effort acquire some marketable skills.

Is it okay if I love you anyway?

Okay, I'm mad again.

Yeah, I could see that, since it involves an omniscient, omnipotent being. Hail Saban!

Don't worry, I'm over it now. However, I am now in the mood for belaboring a point, so I'm going to diagram why it was unfunny and borderline offensive:

See, I am not averse to a good joke about racism. It does, after all, deserve to be mocked. But it has to be a good joke, and not center around the idea that white Southerners are averse to even sitting next to a black guy in a stadium. My grandma's not even that much of a bigot.

When the San Diego Chargers come into town, guess what song they play to torment Manti Teo.

He's actually the chairman of the Louisiana RNC. His name is Chad, he's 19, and he is majoring in communications.
