Thunder Issue Statement After Broadcaster Makes Insensitive Racial Comment

Society today is fricked three ways to china

My gosh what sissy fied world live in. Its just an expression that i use quite often and will continue to use.

frick this country man. I bunch of beta fricks. So tired of pussies getting offended over everything

I would argue that stating that the phrase is racially insensitive is racially insensitive. That connotes that probably cling cotton is exclusive to black Americans. If someone says “cotton picking” and the first image that pops into your head is a black man, then you have a bigger issue than the person who said it innocuously.

What a ridiculous reaction.

oh for christ sake, does everything frickin thing have to be racist ??????

I guarantee I picked more cotton than any black person in Oklahoma

last time I heard that was as a kid watching yosemite sam and bugs bunny cartoons

I've got to be honest that I've heard that phrase all the time growing up an never ever thought of it as a racial comment. I grew up with many African American friends and they would have said something if it had bothered them. No one ever thought of it or paid attention to it. I never stopped to wonder where the term "cotton-pickin" came from. And if I had I never would have thought it was racial. We reading intothings that aren't even there.

At a loss for words on this one ... ultra sensitive, mega sensitive, hyper sensitive, nope...none of those will do.

I 'm glad I have't watched an NBA game in at least 20 years.

Huh ???? Are you serious ... People are NUTS!!!! My Family have been Farming For Years, Generations. Cotton , Sugar Cane , etc .. And Guess What, they are White.. should I take offense?? So I guess asking someone to wash the dishes Correctly or feed the chickens is racially insensitive since black slaves were probably asked to do it as slaves ?? This is getting ridiculous..

The Oklahoma Snowflakes!

F'ING DEMOCRATS ARE MORONS

Screw all these PC idiots. Must not have anything better to do than monitor B'S like this.

This is going to receive some backlash. Backlash... oops.

I feel sorry for the broadcaster

What a joke
