It looks more like a joke sig than a corporate
statement.
Glad you've gotten this off your chest. Writing can be therapeutic.
I believe (and I guess also ESPN management believed) that this was a racist comment. It's cleverly worded, but under Rush's rules if the man is black and getting paid a lot and getting some
media attention, it must be because of something other than his skill. It must be because of race
and media bias. Anyways, Rush got fired, which was appropriate. His other comments in the past have been similar
or much worse. One thing you can't argue
that he isn't a drug-abusing hypocrite. He is
a drug abuser by his own admission, and he's a
hypocrite because he bashed others publicly about their
drug problems and he had his own. Is this really
a man you look up to? Sell your Rush stock before it's down to Enron level.
>>Black people need to get over themselves
I see that you have some problems similar to Rush's with stereotyping. Is this all black people you are talking about? When you meet a black person, is this the first thing that pops into your mind? All black people are the same?
Think about it. You have a problem there bud.
Try to think of everyone as individuals, and not put their race first in your mind. You don't
have to end up like Rush.
Amazing similarities:
- Rush bashes Clinton for weed in college while he himself taking an opiate for years.
- SCO bashes Linux for using it's code, while using Linux code illegally iteslf.
Is Rush working for SCO?
I guess what bothers me most about Rush (other than his racist, sexist, and untruthful banter)
is that he bullied his maid into buying the drugs illegaly of the street for him. Yeah, there's a guy of moral standing you can put your trust into.
Guy, get real. Rush is a lying batard (French
loaf of bread on the ground).

Actually, "Capital-Z" is a better fit in braille. It kinda fits with the mundane nature of the logo as well ;-)
Anybody notice that ESR's suggested logo is a lot like braille? It could be "AZ" for instance.
