^Are you black?
Look I wouldn't call a black person "negro" to their face because it's a severely antiquated word.
But there is absolutely nothing offensive about it. It's like me calling a white person Caucasoid.
is the word Axl used in a song and everyone got upset except for black people.
Moon Cricket???Never heard that one.

son its always the sissy cuckold, far left liberal white people who cry foul and racism.
bunch of sissy cuckold racism going on here
summary of this thread...
negro/###### = bad
If Howard hit me in the head after the whistle I'd throw the ball at his dumb ass too. This whole goaltending-after-the-whistle thing has gotten to the point where ing idiots are wrapping guys up. That should be an automatic tech. Until it is, the NBA's going to have to accept that there's going to be retaliation for it. Williams probably by rule should have gotten a tech, but Dwight initiated contact that was completely unnecessary.
James Posey gets suspended for throwing basketballs at people.
Posey threw the ball at a referee after he got called for a foul. He also got suspended a few years ago for throwing his mouthpiece at an official, so he had history. Not even remotely the same situation.
Lol @ this thread
I feel like this is a multicultural diversity seminar led by people who have never met black people.

Agree. This country has been so pussified over the last two decades with Politically Correct Bull Mantras.. The current generation buys into
the belief that being "overly sensitive" makes you more progressive minded and less "prejudiced." They're upset with "negro"? they're so brainwashed they can't see how ridiculous they are because the far left liberal whites have such white "guilt" they want to impress the black people audience
"look how progressive I am! see!.. I got the backs of "black folk", because, I can prove it..The other day when someone referred to YOUR KIND as a negro...You know what I did?? I gave them an earful! therefore I understand what it's like to undergo TRUE racism now, since I have defended your KIND against it in all its horrors..."
People getting upset over the spanish word for 'black', because it sounds a little insensitive and archaic--and starts with the same letter as "######"![]()
Pffft..Get over yourselves with the Race Card stuff...Dr. House is just a moronic laker homer, not a racist.
the next generation needs to be de-programmed with Mel Brooks' Blazing Saddles/ Clint Eastwood school of thinking...so they can recognize true racist sentiment...and stop whining over the little things.
'People have lost their sense of humour,'
'In former times we constantly made jokes about different races.
'You can only tell them today with one hand over your mouth otherwise you will be insulted as a racist.
'I find that ridiculous. In those earlier days every friendly clique had a "Sam the Jew" or "Jose the Mexican" - but we didn't think anything of it or have a racist
thought.
'It was normal that we made jokes based on our nationality or ethnicity. That was never a problem.
''I don't want to be politically correct. We're all spending too much time and energy trying to be politically correct about everything.' - Clint Eastwood 2009
Babying a race, singling out an ethnic group, and patronizing them for every little nuance of racism/or perceived prejudice is counter productive...
...we don't need stupid far-left white PC liberalism (and the people who actually listen to their bull ) reinforcing sensitivity about it and applying history tidbits to everyone, everywhere. There will be prejudice from certain groups and certain people. But everyone shouldn't have to suffer the 'PC preaching' because of those people.
Walking on eggs s is stupid and just as prejudiced...if not more annoying...
i.e. PC white liberal encounter, "oops my faux pas, is that politically correct with your, uh people? No? Again, what I meant to say was African-Amer--"
" Black's fine...sighhh..."
Programs like "affirmative action" are racist. They imply that blacks are inferior, and so need a "leg up" from the government.
Do you know that you can score points AFTER the whistle? Goaltending after the whistle is one thing, but I know no problem with wrapping up someone until the play is really dead. It's more disturbing to me when guys stop playing and the refs allow some insane "follow-through" to count. Williams is a byatch! Dwight did the right thing.

Whenever I think of that en y, I recall Bush totally messing up its slogan.

Affirmative action is not just meant for Blacks, but at minorities in general...Think before you post!!!
apparently the nuggets can too, i saw billups throwing the ball at kobe's back the other day.
One of the rare times I have to agree with you. If you or I made as many screwups at our job as an NBA ref does on regularity, we'd have gotten canned a long time ago.
Time after time, mistakes like this are being allowed, and they are changing the face of some playoff series. The refs should never be the storyline in a basketball game. I understand that the refs work is reviewed after the game, but I don't see anysign of them being accountable for it.
The fact that Joey Crawford can challenge one of the nicest superstars in the league to a fight, and eject him from a big game (against a division rival) for laughing, and yet still work playoff games (against the same two teams in the same building, no less)...is enough evidence I need to realize that the NBA truly does not give two s.
I don't particularly think it's collusion. I just think it's just inep ude. Though I'll admit that some teams seem to get the benefit of the doubt with a lot of whistles more than others, not mentioning any names.
I'm sorry, are you black? What the gives you the right to determine what words upset another person? Can I start talking about your family to your face under the guise of, "Oh ease up, be less PC, man!"
You think it's white folks coming to the rescue here, well, why don't you go up to a large black man and call him a "negro"? Or are you only going to run your mouth on a message board? It's easy to spew those political charged diatribes when you're Mr. Internet Tough Guy.
Or you could actually be intelligent enough to use a more accepted word for the situation. You know, either/or.Babying a race, singling out an ethnic group, and patronizing them for every little nuance of racism/or perceived prejudice is counter productive...

Not using racially charged references cons utes as "walking on eggs s" for you? Is your vocabulary that small that you HAVE to use "negro" when talking about black people? Do you refer to latinos as " s" because you just run out of synonyms for people from Central America?Walking on eggs s is stupid and just as prejudiced...if not more annoying...
Black is fine. Negro is not. Again, that is not your decision to give people permission about what to get upset over. If someone doesn't like being called a word, use a tiny amount of courtesy and don't refer to them by that.i.e. PC white liberal encounter, "oops my faux pas, is that politically correct with your, uh people? No? Again, what I meant to say was African-Amer--"
" Black's fine...sighhh..."
But don't get indignant because other people are trying to be considerate. Or do, and be an asshole. Whatever works for you, I guess.
You are dumbass. If you wouldn't say it to their face, then don't say it.
Negro=Whitey=
All are derogatory.
Negro used to be accepted, now it isn't
These are grown ass men.
ohhhh he threw a ball at me..c'mon
No need for Ron Jeremy to have a heart attack towards the ref for such a weak incident.
btw government coddling the blacks only keeps many weak...dependent...on purpose...that's the goal for the government.....
