Message: [QUOTE="Jake, post: 1361428, member: 86"] Eh. The lack of handshakes and then the remark at the press conferences in front if probably the biggest crowd of reporters they've ever seen to me shows a lack if character, lack of maturity and lack of respect for the game, the tournament and quite frankly your elders. But it didn't have racist intent. It meant to degrade Kaminsky's ability as a player...not his race. People who don't get this have lost touch with the current generation. No biggie it happens to lots of people. Society changed, no longer using once acceptable phrases are hard to break habits. So are social mores of what is once forbidden, but now seem acceptable in some circumstances. Now if he had said " cracker"...then we've got a whole different situation. The kid is a dick, not a racist. [/QUOTE]
