Reply to "Racist Coaches"

Reading threads such as this always makes me wonder which posters themselves have let remarks slip that they didn't intend at all to be offensive. I know that I've heard various people say:

"He Jewed me out of..."

"...Dirty Jap Trick!"

etc. etc. It seems that we are all good at passing judgement on others. Too bad we haven't been reflective enough of ourselves. I believe that we are all victims and beneficiaries of our environment. It is a two edged sword. Sometimes we simply say things that we don't mean about things we would never support. That is called being human. I don't consider the one statement by a man as highly regarded as this coach as proof that he is a racist. I simply believe he made a mistake. I would bet that he was as horrified as anyone else when he realized what he said. Everything here is JMHO!
