From a Darren Daulton reference about him dealing with brain cancer....

To "healing the wounds caused by Riley Cooper's words"?

Are you fricking kidding me?

Just do like the rest of America is doing and turn ESPN off.

I don't know what pisses me off more, the fact that if Cooper were black and said the same thing, no one would think shite about it, or the fact that this bullshite is news in the first place.

I will be waiting to see what the reaction and aftermath will be like the next time a black athlete uses a racial slur. What Cooper said was uncalled for and there is no place for it anywhere, but the overreaction and the over-coverage is getting ridiculous. The professional fate of Riley Cooper should be decided by his coaches and teammates, the people that have to actually be around him everyday, not by the far-removed media throwing spears until this guy is released.

This nation has regressed. He said the N-word. This is not news worthy.

This should have stated an internal matter.

No one would know or care if it wasn't for Espin making every segment about it.

Wounds? Really? From the n-word?

What sucks is that you don't go on trial for racial slurs, yet you are convicted to a life sentence as a racist by the media.. with little to no chance of exoneration.

Posters who bitch about ESPN are normally the worst posters on here.
