We already knew that ESPN's Stuart Scott has some odd opinions about the Don Imus-"nappy-headed hos" controversy. Last month Scott said on ESPN Radio that sometimes when men call women "hos," they mean it affectionately, and then he went back on the radio a couple days later to backtrack -- kind of. But now Scott has said something very strange. Both Joe Sports Fan and Council of the Gees have noted an odd comment attributed to Scott in ESPN the Magazine regarding Imus and Tennessee Titans cornerback Pacman Jones.
"I'll take Pacman's indiscretions over those of Imus."
Let's make sure we're clear about what the "indiscretions" of Imus and Jones are. Imus had a radio show on which he often made offensive, racist jokes. The last of his comments was calling the Rutgers women's basketball team "nappy-headed hos."
Jones is accused of multiple violent crimes, the latest of which was starting a fight in a strip club that resulted in a shooting in which a man was paralyzed.
Would Stuart Scott care to explain to the paralyzed man, Tommy Urbanski, how Pacman Jones is better than Don Imus?
