Why don’t some dumbass ask Myles the brain Garret exactly when Mason said it. Put it out on the clip exactly when he said it. Didn’t Myles say he called him a stupid n-word? [Reply]
NFL should not have agreed to reinstate Garrett until he agreed to stop slandering Rudolph. I think Rudolph needs to sue him at this point. Damages can be every dollar of Garrett's #1 overall contract ($30.4 million). You make serious allegations like this? There should be serious consequences if you are lying. [Reply]
I remember when Marcus Smart attacked a fan when he was at Oklahoma State, then blamed it on the fan calling him a racial slur. Video and audio came out and definitely nothing of the sort was ever said. You can hear someone say "piece of shit", thats all of the words heard. Yes, bad form for the fan but a far cry from a racial slur.
Even despite all of this evidence NOBODY was on the fans side. This is a guy that got attacked, accused of being a racist, and was kicked out of all future Tech games due to PR reasons. Everyone basically was like Smarts actions were justified.
Words are not an excuse to assault someone. Our teachers and parents have told us this for years. But somehow its ok if someone calls you something derrogatory now? [Reply]

The horrible thing about that situation is that the guy was a long-term season ticket holder and was banned from the arena. Pretty sad. He was very loyal to the team when we were HORRIBLE under Bob Knight's son Pat. And Tech did nothing to stand up for the guy in the immediate aftermath. They allowed Smart to get away with slander. ESPN and other media went along with the slander. Nobody corrected the record or apologized for their earlier reporting on the issue. [Reply]

Of course the white guy is going to claim that he didn't use the n-word. It becomes a he said/she said situation. Who's telling the truth?
Yes, a coach traditionally will back up his players. Tomilson says everyone he talked to that was near enough to hear spoken words says that the n-word wasn't used. Most were black. I cant see teammates and a coach that are black covering for a white backup QB using the n-word. That carries some weight with me.
Teammate or not, I don't see these very large Type A men tolerating a white guy using the n-word in their presence, [Reply]
