Never liked the guy regardless of my love for the Cards. He called Doncic a “bitch-ass white boy” last night. Not surprising he’s a racist.

Don’t disagree that he used a very poor choice of words. But they are all bigs boys in the NBA. I would suspect that these guys exchange pleasantries and smack like this all game long.
During pregame today:
Easy to say that Montrezl did nothing wrong and can smooth that over with a few words and a pat on the back, but there just can’t be a double standard for those who demand social justice. Take off the blinders and acknowledge the most obvious of points.
Im not arguing that he should have said it but it doesnt make him a racist. Its also not on the level of calling someone the n word or some racial slur.
I'll say the same thing I said about Thom Brennaman - I won't defend the words because clearly they are bad. Still I don't want to over-react to them either. Normal people don't have cameras/mics on them and if they did they no doubt have same something that would get them "fired" in a public eye kind of job as well. Seriously, think about that. You don't want to condone the slurs so you have to suspend/fine them or something, but you don't want to ruin careers over it.
“dick” Pitino failed to teach Montrezl anything about team ball. He was only concerned with himself and his stats his last year here and I, for one, was happy to see him move on. Plus he embarrassed UofL by refusing to testify in the NCAA investigation into “strippergate”. That was a CYA move on his part and he may have been able to assist UofL but chose not to. His recent actions indicate that he is not a good or decent person.
GO CARDS - BEAT EVERYBODY!!! May God Bless America!!!
Did you want him to lie? Had he admitted what happened, he’d face zero consequences as a nba players.
We we to the elite 8 his last year. We did okay with him apparently ball hogging. What do you think he should have done differently?
I just looked up Thom Brennamen. That is not the same thing. He used a gay slur.
UofL suspended him from Campus/games because the NCAA made UofL do that. It was part of the 'punishment' since he would not cooperate with NCAA in investigation if my memory serves me right. I do not believe it was a UofL driven choice.How about MAN UP! UofL did great by him and he took off like a scared chicken shit rabbit. I lost all respect for him when that happened. And, by the way, UofL, suspended him from our campus and games for about five years. That screams volumes about him. He did come to a game this past season with his kids so there is that.

Uofl had to suspend him because he refused to talk to the Ncaa. Its says nothing about him other than he didnt talk to the Ncaa. The school has had him here as a guest in the past couple of seasons btw. Pretty sure Rozier is also suspended.How about MAN UP!

Similar, gay slur/racial slur, both while on the job and recorded by a mic or camera. Both are bad and shouldn't happen, but Montrezl's career isn't over from this (nor should it be) and Thom's 30 year career shouldn't be over either.
Calling someone white boy and fag are not the same thing. Not even similar. Also Harrell was overheard talking trash on the court. I dont even know why Thom thought that was a good idea to say on the air.
Obviously Thom blew it and it will cost him the balance of his career. But Harrel called the other guy “white boy” in a moment of temper. Is that being racist? I’d say it probably is. If a white guy says “black boy” to an African-American guy is that not racist? I’m thinking that it just might be. The NBA almost has to react to this situation and get that type of language under control. Not sure about the “bitch ass” part of the comment other than a bitch is a female dog and that could be construed to be very negative in a confrontational situation.

It's not really a competition of which slur is worse. I'd say calling anyone a "bitch-ass white/black/brown/yellow boy" would be deemed a slur by the target. Again, I'm not defending any of these words, Thom's or Montrezl's - I'm just saying, ok fine or suspend them because they did these things "on the clock" but neither needs to have their careers ended.
