Come-ON!!!! People are getting way to sensitive. The comment was very tame. Whitlock, go have you some chicken & collards and don’t sweat the small shit.

As a matter of fact that is a good lesson for all of us…”Don’t sweat the small shit”!! Lighten the F%@* up people, life’s to short.

The twitter thing won’t last too much longer. Just because something stupid crosses your mind doesn’t mean you have to tweet it.

Question 1: How much do you think Whitlock had to shell out for those hookers in the picture at top?

Question 2: How long would they survive if the call came from Craig James instead, and where would the bodies end up?

He apologized for debasing a feel-good sports moment-
that was the apology that those Asian journalists demanded. See above.

1. The AAJA didn’t ask for an apology specifically for ruining the moment. 2. It doesn’t even matter what the AAJA asked for anyway.

There’s a difference. Everyone envies asians for their kungfu; for their small penii, notsomuch.
I’m surprised [Wh]itlock didn’t tweet-scream “ENJOY MY TWEETS JUDGE MY COLUMNS” as his defense, and then ban-follow everyone.

On TBL at 2/11: 10:01am “I expect this to be the end of it. Whitlock’s crack was insensitive, and perpetuated a stereotype.”

On TBL at 2/12: 6:30pm “Lin’s 23, Asian-American, and has had a Kung-Fu grip on the league.”

Penis jokes are wrong but kung fu jokes are okay apparently? Make sure you guys have a consistent policy when mounting your high horse.

Just delete the twitter comment Whitlock. Then it’s all good.

I also think we all need to think about why we think it’s okay to crack on stereotypes related to Jeremy Lin’s ethnicity.

I think the better question is why Jeremy Lin thinks it’s amusing to urinate in someone’s name brand soda.

I’m sure you weren’t, since you’re some kind of mexican or something.

Half-Italian so I’m only half-outraged at the Sopranos that imply I would ever sleep with Carmella.

Where is the article calling out your boss for his “Kung-Fu grip” phrase? Racist humor by any other name…

Nobody was seriously offended right?

I’m sure you weren’t, since you’re some kind of mexican or something.

Regardless, part of Whitlock’s bullshit schtick is that he goes around calling people racists, and it makes it harder to do when you’re one of the racists. So if he loses a little face by apologizing now, he saves all those race cards he has in his back pocket for later.

Lin’s response to Whitlock-

“too beaucoup!”

Well, we know Whitlock isn’t sorry….
Whitlock will still be joking about race and get paid for years to come…why? it’s his skin color, that is why.
Then again, it’s quite obvious that no matter what color or race he is, he’s not capable of even giving a couple inches to any lady, tramp, whore, or some guy down the street…he’s just envious of Lin!
We should give Whitlock a break for his own shortcomings!
