Yeah, the refs from the UK/Wisky game need to hang it up for the year.
One is a Big 12 ref.

yes but now I want to see him crying in the lockerroom
If Harrison were white, and Kaminsky were black, Harrison's career would be officially over.

Excerpt:
When a reporter asked Karl-Anthony Towns what made Frank Kaminsky so difficult to defend in Wisconsin's 71-64 victory over the previously undefeated Wildcats, Harrison appeared to mutter "F--- that N----" under his breath at the mention of the Badgers forward. Harrison tweeted an apology early Tuesday morning and said he'd spoken to Kaminsky.
Why do people complain about a so-called double standard? Are they irritated because it's a word they want to use?
...
The context, intent and setting of Harrison's remarks are not even remotely similar to the OU, Ferguson or Sterling racist debacles.

Wow! Are you saying I want to use this word? Where is the irritation you speak of? Just making an observation is not a "complaint". To some of us, there does seem to be a double-standard. Pretty simple. The use of that word is not a good thing, no matter who uses it. In the news article, it says that the black man directed the word at the white man. It is bad either way.
Is it not?
Who said they were?

No, I don't think you want to use the word. But I've met you and have a basis for that opinion.
I'm saying that I don't understand what irritates people about the double standard. On the list of things that bother me about race relation problems in the USA, it would fall at or near the bottom of the list.
OMG, the broadcast crew is really driving me crazy. It's obvious they want the Wildcats to win. *****ing about every single call that does not go Kentucky's way - seeing walking left and right but only when Wisconsin does it.. lol
Okay, rant over - Wisconsin is hanging in there thus far.
