Imus and Black Athlete !!!

[GovtMule1979]

Who cares? Imus gets paid to say stupid things, its why people (not me) listen to him.  Did you listen to that show when it happend Rapking, or are you just outraged because someone told you to be?

There's a huge difference between this and the Rutgers event. This is and was nothing. The media is perpetuating the whole PC crap so much that noboday will be able to say anything soon.

Thought y'all might get a kick out of this.  "Pacman" is now trying for an image change, including dropping the "Pacman" nickname!     It's going to take a lot more than a name change to redeem this street thug!

His new name is Waka Waka Waka.   

(If you don't get it, Google "Pacman," the video game.)

The real trouble here is that Imus ceased being "professional" at least 10 years ago.  His style and flippant comments constantly get him into hot water and not in a good way.  This latest flap could have easily been averted with a quick follow-up comment at the time.  But no, he just let it drop.  And this happened not long after the whole Rutgers thing that got him fired.  Come on, why be stupid?  The comment wasn't funny; but then again, nor is Imus.  Not anymore. 
 
Not to mention that he's now being sued by an advertiser for $4MM because he botched a live read, made fun of the sponsor and called them "bastards."  You may not like what they're selling, but it is unprofessional as hell to do that.  Face it, Imus is a hack who should have retired in about 1999.   It's sad because he was great back in the 70s and early 80s.
