<div class="quote_poster">olskoolFunktitude Wrote</div><div class="quote_post">maybe. and if my aunt were a man she might be my uncle. it really depends on the situation. the only way it would have been completely analogous to this situation would be if he said something racist in parody of someone else because the so-called "sexist" remark was only made in mocking reference to Tommy Heinson. if that were the case...oh heck, whats the point. that wasnt the case so who knows whether he WOULD HAVE had to apologize or not.</div> My point is whether he was joking or not, he should say sorry. I understand it wasn't meant to be taken seriously, but obviously some were offended by the comments. It's foolish to think he shouldn't have to say sorry because he wasn't serious. Kramer was just joking but does that mean he doesn't have to say sorry to all of the black people who he offended? I'm not hating on Maxwell - he did the right thing by appologizing. But the bottom line is: a joke or not, it was a sexist remark which offended some, so therefore he should appologize. <div class="quote_poster">THE DREAM Wrote</div><div class="quote_post">the WNBA is one big sexist joke...I mean seriously I can't accout for the number of times I've heard jokes aimed at the "lameness" of that league and that's from males AND females....</div> Same here, but this is kind of different though.

you're not really comparing Max's wisecrack to Kramers tirade are you? michael richards seemed like he was being pretty darned serious to me. Sure, it was nice that Cedric apologized. no ones saying it was "wrong" to apologize. i just dont think an apology was nesecary is all
Maybe him and the ref know each other and she is actually an excellent chef in her spare time? Did that thought ever cross YOUR MIND?? He was simply complimenting a friend on her continental breakfast skills and it was MISINTERPRETED....
