Mr. Buddy Garrity Posted December 6, 2020 Report Share Posted December 6, 2020 I'm surprised by nothing that happens in Florida. NetCat and exsoftballplayer 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wbfan Posted December 6, 2020 Report Share Posted December 6, 2020 I'm surprised this hasn't happened more often esp this year. That being said, there are a few teams that have historically called players on other teams slurs midgame. So that part is most certainly believable I'll leave it at that, folks can take a wild guess on who they are. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The headline would be more accurate if it said “Team A allegedly calls Team B a name that Team B calls themselves all of the time. Riot ensued.” Here’s the deal... we all appreciate good trash talk. If there’s a magic word that causes your opponent to lose focus and possibly even cause them to hurt themselves (unsportsmanlikes, DQs, etc.), why wouldn’t you use it? It’s comical because it’s just a word and it has no power except the power that the “victim” gives the speaker. It’s a by product of teaching your kids that a word’s offensiveness can be determine by the color of the speaker’s skin. If the word was offensive, you’d be offended when ANYBODY used it.

Maybe I’m just different, but I wanna beat the guy across from me, not call him something racially insensitive and make him lose his cool. i get what your saying, if it’s that bad then people of neither color should use it. I agree 100%, but I’m not them. Only person I can control in the situation is myself. ozens fastest@1906 and Bulldogs92 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SmashMouth Posted December 7, 2020 Author Report Share Posted December 7, 2020 I hope “your mama...” stuff is ok. I never played a game in HS or College where somebody’s mama didn’t get mentioned. It was usually referring to after hours activities between me and the opponent across from me’s dear mother. Poor mama. exsoftballplayer, CardinalBacker and dayton 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The debate is for another page, I know.... but if your kids use a word every day and then loses their crap when somebody else says it.... that's just poor upbringing on all sides of the table.

Once again. There is no understanding to the use of the word. What they call each other is very different to what others call them. The two words are different. (1) they are spelled differently and the meaning is different. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, I believe that those white players we’re using the “a” version... so you are ok with that? I’m from Texas and I’m pretty sure that I’ve never pronounced the “g” sound at the end of any word that ends in “-ing.” You’re pretending that it’s somehow okay to call somebody a duckin’ idiot, but wrong to call them a ducking idiot, if you catch my drift.... While constantly using the term yourself and demanding that others to be punished for doing the same thing decades ago. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The ending with a takes a totally different meaning than Er. Somehow those with no understanding of the culture always seem to find a reason to relate the two. So since you don’t understand. Let me explain. N with an a means my friend or homie. N with an Er is Derogatory and is what non blacks use to degrade people of color.

So it’s ok if a white guy says to a black friend, “Whassup ****a?” I think you’re reaching pal. I’m assuming your a non-African American.

I’m assuming your a non-African American. It's all circular logic that gets people nowhere. Despite all of the explanations about "er" and "a," at the end of the day, it's only offensive when whitey says it. Nobody has big enough nuts to admit it. It's kinda like the old argument that abortion supporters bring up during abortion debates... Them: "But what about instances of rape and incest?" Me: "Ok, so you're willing to admit that in every instance EXCEPT rape and incest it should be illegal?" Them: "No, that's not what I'm saying." All of the arguments about "a" and "er" are just a smokescreen. White people should be punished if they've ever uttered the word that black people throw around every day. That's what they really believe. And it's why the use of the is still so effective on the playing field. Newsflash.... every single white person on the planet has said it at some point. Any white person that denies that fact is a liar, too. Fight me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
