Message: [QUOTE="CusefanATL, post: 1131880, member: 853"] Have you ever made a comment about an Indian owning a 7eleven, or an Asian owning a Drycleaning, or someone being a Jew, a Guido, a redneck? There are a lot of offensive remarks that sound so much worse when put in public forum than when they are just said. Yes its an offensive remark. And it shouldn't have been said. But this was also said in the confines of the Hawks office. It doesn't make it right, but sports teams offices/locker rooms aren't exactly board rooms nor are they politically correct. As I have said in a different thread, I know the Levenson family very well. I have had very similar conversations with Bruce as what the email was about. If you hear him saying the same things he said in the email - you would know immediately that none of it is even remotely racist and maybe barely insensitive. It being on paper, the reader can change the tone and the meaning to whatever they want. It isn't fair at all. [/QUOTE]
