Can always count on you for the anti-Semetic remarks, well done.
The suspension should stand for that epic Borat joke FAIL.

If Muslims wanted to be as respected as Jews are in America, they should cut down on the amount of buildings they fly planes into.
The clippers announcers are the best in the business, IMO. anyone who doesn't know about them should stfu.
lol big ing deal...I hear people on TV pronounce Iran... I "RAN" as in "I ran" today. I could care less.
bingo!
Because they annoy the out of me and as the transcript in the article clearly shows, they aren't funny.
But they shouldn't have been suspended for nothing. In protest of this suspension I will now refer to anyone of middle eastern descent as a rag head for the rest of the year.
And you all wonder why the rest of the world has lost total respect for the USA.
i still remember bill walton saying "tony parker just got raped." followed by a few seconds of silence. i dont think he ever got punished for it though - at least no publicly.
Yeah & I Didnt know there were 2 ways to pronounce Iranian?
Most of them don't even like Americans anyway so, now we gotta be PC with them!?!
it's I-RON-E-N.
So when I go to Iran, I'm goin to I-RON?

Wouldn't say "white", but I know what you mean, and completely agree
You at least might give a damn how the Chinese view certain Americans, given the fact that they own you![]()
Luva, nailin' it...on the precise.
Not worried. JamStone, Balli and the rest of the PC weirdos will quickly explain us that this decision was too light because, after all, someone felt insulted for the mispronunciation of Iranian.
Seems like an over-reaction to me. I can't see how mispronouncing a name like that is offensive. Ignorant, sure, especially the Borat comment since he's meant to be from Kazakhstan, which is about 500mi to the north and racially/culturally very different (although it is also a majority Muslim country), but offensive?
Iran is hardly a "third-world hole". Just because you don't know a thing about a country/culture/religion/etc. doesn't make it a "third-world hole".
Given that a majority of its GDP comes from services, and that it does have an industrial sector, it actually qualifies as a semi-developed country.
Yeah, because all Muslims fly planes into buildings...
You really should check your ignorant head.
Given that you live in a global community where we all have to get along on the same planet, maybe you should take the way your nation is viewed more seriously.
Not too long ago, America used to be respected and admired by most of the world, and because of that things went a lot smoother for you. Having turned a large proportion of the rest of the world towards either uneasy alliance, neutrality, or open hatred, the US Government is finding dealing with the international community a lot more difficult than it was a few decades ago. Like it or not, the way any country is viewed by the international community through the lens of its behaviour does affect that country.
Them? Us? Them vs Us! What a productive way to view humanity!![]()
No, no, Ruff, DUNCAN is correct here. Iran is a third world hole.
