The decision came down Friday.


Over a week ago. And the piling on has been occurring for almost a year.

Racism continues to be an issue


Yeah, where people throw bananas on the field at black players, or people are openly discriminated against in general, but when's the last time that happened in England?

Honestly, people say offensive things all the time. TM7 tweeted "If u rant kill urself. Just drink your beer and watch me do work...consistently," because he was upset that some clown on TD got ripped apart for starting a thread saying that he would go Top 5. John Rocker fricked with the city of New York and was chastised for it... for an appropriate amount of time. These are just two examples, but I would argue that either of the instances were equally offensive.

Where's the outrage over Terry being tried in court? Does anyone else not find that more ridiculous than anything he could have said?

Excuse me, the commission's report dropped Friday. Still within valid conversation period.

This isn't all that racism is.

Not what point you're trying to make here. Of course, Rocker's racist, sexist, homophobic, xenophobic rant was ripped for quite awhile. In fact, I just read an article about it in the past 3 months. The Braves condemned everything he said and he was suspended.
