December 22, 200421 yr What a douche. That's a very common phrase in todays society. If you heard someone say this on the street I know you wouldn't walk up to them and start whining. 640637[/snapback] Easy with the name calling, kid.... And this is where you're wrong... I would and have called people out on the street for using that so called "common phrase." But I guess your reasoning explains it all. You like to repeat things you hear in today's society.... Fair enough, just don't expect to be taken seriously. 640641[/snapback] So you just randomly walk up to people and tell them what they should and shouldn't say? I'm speechless.

December 22, 200421 yr So you just randomly walk up to people and tell them what they should and shouldn't say? I'm speechless. 640644[/snapback] If someone says something in my immediate vicinity that is offensive, you bet your arse I speak up.... It takes a lot for me to find something offensive, but if you're still amazed that people reacted this way to your post, then you must not be the sharpest tool in the toolshed.... And that's all I have to say about that....

I hope you're getting my point.

If you can't see the difference between the first word you used and these stupid little phrases, you seriously need to get educated a little more. Too funny...
December 22, 200421 yr Yes. It's what white folks use to call the negro slaves that came from Africa.
December 22, 200421 yr Yes. It's what white folks use to call the negro slaves that came from Africa. 640658[/snapback] :lol Wow, you really don't know the history of the word other than the time period.

The word actually means to blacken, or destroy someone or something. It comse from denigrate.

You need to know the history because it doesn't mean that anymore. It's been twisted to be a slur among other things.
December 22, 200421 yr LOL...what a thread, I hardly see what's so bad about the word if it's used in the right context. It wasn't directed at any black person I don't think.

December 23, 200421 yr drew signing w/ dodgers is great for us seeming we had no legit shot and hes not on the braves any more. Does any one remember what he did to us last season.
December 23, 200421 yr If this is true (Drew's 5/$55 million signing) this is very bad for the sport of baseball. This is not said as a Marlins fan but rather a baseball fan. DePodesta ought to have his head examined paying that kind of money and committing to half a decade with a guy who's knickname is "DL Drew". It's insane. This sport needs to take a page out of the NFL book and bring some sanity to it's player spending practices. 640613[/snapback] :beer I'll drink to that, but you are: :deadhorse This is why MLB's economics are so screwy. Dont blame the players, but the execs.
