And for the record, Stephen A Smith definitely said it. Not sure why he released a statement saying otherwise

I agree. I don't think its a big deal in the context. But sounds to me like he says it. And notice how skip quicky tries to change the subject

He also just made a statement assuring that he did not utter the N word, he said that he speaks very fast and it was misconstrued

This is the worst part about the whole ordeal. Everybody knows what you said, so don't be such a punk and just roll with it. Clown.

Are you kidding? This has to be a joke right? You probably find nothing at all wrong with honky, spick, or chink do you?

I think you would be hard pressed to find a white person who is truly offended by the word "honky". The .074% of white people who are offended should get their ass beat.

Negative...the younger generation has fully embraced the word and uses it as a term on endearment practically. It's all about context!

Might be the single dumbest post ever on this forum. Please walk up to a black guy on the streets of Chicago and call him that word and see if he's embraced the word.

Are you stupid or just a little slow? Have you ever listened to hip-hop? Do you actually know any black people? They call each other nigga all the time - hell, 90% of my main customers tenants are black and half of them say it to me! Try going around some teenage black kids - it's nigga this and nigga that - they don't see anything at all wrong with it so why should I? It's not like I am calling them a porch monkey or spook - which believe me would definitely press the wrong buttons. It's all about the way the word is being used.

I don't think that many black people are offended by "the n-word" - at least not the ones who aren't dyed in the wool Jesse Jackson "Whitey owes me" ones. Who knows though, maybe we just have thicker skin in the South.

I think Skip wish it would have been him that was called that. Would have given him more street cred.

I can tell you've never played on Xbox Live.

LOL. You couldn't be more right about X-Box Live. People on their are totally out of control. The worst people in the world are on that thing. None of them are funny, none have girlfriends, and talk the most shit. I used to just sit their laughing at all the stuff they said. Sometimes it was better than actually playing the games

just as louis ck says... anyone that says the phrase "the N word" should be shot. just say ******...making the reader/listener have to define "the N word" in their head puts that specific word on a much higher plateau than it was ever meant to be.

and who's to fn say that word is worse than retard or cocksucker or whatever other word you can find. it's all about the 1) context it's used in... 2) person it's said to and how they receive it

i'm fairly certain we'll be saying "the R word" within 3 years

You're really making these posts but calling me stupid?

Black people call each other the "N" word (which I find unacceptable) but if you did it, you'd get your ass kicked. It's not the norm, it's not acceptable and it's not about how it's being used.

It's not ok under any circumstance to use the word. If you don't understand this, just carry on and don't respond or enroll in a school and educate yourself.

I agree but the fight isn't worth it man. For whatever reason, people want to say the word and see nothing wrong with it. Ive argued with people but nobody ever changes their mind anymore. I don't think I have seen 1 thread in here where someone is swayed by an argument ever. Its easier to just ignore these posts
