    Been mostly staying away from this thread... Don't have the $$ for blood pressure medication this week.

    I think Imus' greatest sin was not being funny. If you are going to joke around with race, at least make it funny. If it's obviously funny, you can say, "I am joking! I'm not a racist." If it falls as flat as that lame crap did, people are just left sitting there thinking, "That wasn't funny. What an asshole."

    If you believe what Stern was saying even going back to their days at WNBC, Imus was known to throw the racial slurs around pretty frequently.

    I rarely listen to him, but when I do, I just don't get how he has lasted for 30 years. He's not funny or witty. But he does get excellent guests.

    Maybe Imus and Bernie have been spending too much time around the SOHH.com message board and thought it was hip to talk like that . SOHH is a popular web site for the hip hop community.

    Here is a little sampling of what you get there:

    Some dykes need to get raped!!

    --------------------------------------------------------------------------------

    I'm not an advocate of rape in any form or fashion but these studly dykes deserve that justice. They dress more thuggish than nigguhs do but don't realize that real men don't try that hard to look thugged out.
    These stocky, burly, shaved head, fitted cap, boxer wearing, tattoo neck, black lips from weed smokin, 5'6 with shorts to their ankles having.... dykes need to get sodomized!!! Maybe, just maybe, they may like it and turn back into the nice young respectable lady that their mothers raised them to be Just take a look
     
  6. Maybe somebody should put the SOHH message board on national television and a nationally syndicated radio program and maybe important politicians and media figures should join in, and....
    What's your point here, Boom?

    He has no point.

    He often has no point; it's part of his charm.

    He's not funny. The only thing sadder than watching someone fail at being funny, is watching them think they are funny. That's Imus, he's not funny, but thinks he's the greatest wit since Groucho Marx.

    Imus' old sports guy was fired for saying something that was very tame compared to this...

    I agree that Imus hasn't been funny in ages... Glad I listen to Stern...
