Okay, first of all, who's outraged? I've only read a few stories so far, and they report what's happened, but I don't see any particular outrage. I know I'm not outraged.
I think there are very low level racial assumptions (ie the press must have overrated this guy on account of his being black, as opposed to the wirters actually thinking he was good). Nothing very impressive in the world of gaffs.
I think it was dumb, not because he said anythiung so wrong, but becuase he didn't know that something that never would have even been notcied on his show would get this much attenion on ESPN.
I also think he's a quitter. This was supposed to be hi life DREAM, and what, has he even been doing it a month and he's quitting? ESPN backed him as far as I can tell. No apology, no retraction, nada. So where' the 'punishment'? He couldn't take the heat and he fled te kitchen. End of story.
Sound like anyone you know, Vinth?
I save my outrage for things that mtter to me. I wouldn't waste it on a right wing fatty who says things I routinely think are stupid doing something stupid. I'm mildly amused it happened this quick, and that's all. Read all the outrage in that you like. If he hadn't quit, this story would be almost over already. This will give it one more days legs, and then Rush will talk about it on his show and give it some miore legs.
