Imus
As a fan of college women's basketball AND a frequent listener/watcher of Imus In The Morning, I can attest that Don Imus doesn't respect college women's basketball, period. I believe he thought no one else does, either, and thus he could offer an incredibly crude remark with impunity. Still, I wish that SOMEDAY, SOMEONE targeted by a racist remark will riposte, rather than mope. Years ago, I regretted Tiger Woods' sullen reaction to Fuzzy Zoeller, when he could so effectively have made fun of him instead--this over-the-hill, out-of-touch competitor whose game pales beside Tiger's. Instead, we were asked to agree with Tiger that somehow, despite being incredibly gifted, privileged, and young, he had been made to suffer.
