    LOL i was wondering the same thing, but then i saw it was papaG and a target (or vice versa) and dismissed it. Anything is possible w/that guy and the arguments :-)


    However, to the OP, this whole thing is f-up. Those public figures should be more cognizant of that shit

    Agreed. Also, we Black people call each other Chief, Boss, Cap'n, and even God sometimes. It's used in reference to someone you respect highly.

    There should be no place in the NBA for making fun of someone with a physical deformity the same as there should be no place for racism. If Sterling deserves a life time ban for an illegally taped conversation being leaked then Shaq at least deserves a suspension for doing something similar on a publically accessible site like Instagram.

    Double standard at its finest.

    i call strangers chief sometimes, like "hey chief, let me get a shot of jack"

    i also know a native american guy who hangs at the bar and shoots pool, he goes by the name chief, he introduced himself to me as chief. pretty good 8 ball player

    also know another big native american guy who stage manages for pop acts, he goes by chief as well, because he kinda is

    This I kind of agree with. Except the Sterling thing was above and beyond this. I do think there should be some ramifications for Shaq.

    shaq has always done things to "get attention" good or bad it didn't matter to him.

    I still remember when he was a Laker and had an interview after coming back from Miami with some reporter.
    the reporter asked a question I don't remember I just remember his answer.

    "I don't remember how many strip clubs I visited while in Miami".
    (granted he was joking but still, turned my family off to the game of basketball for 10+years)

    He's someone who wants attention.

    Calling a person God seems a little blasphemous.

    But we white people call each other chief, boss, and cap'n too.

    LMAO I wonder if anyone else caught that? It's not like it suits the person who's wearing it though. Being black and all

    What exactly is Shaq's current relationship with the NBA? Is he a minority owner in some team?


    This is why I'm not worried about the slippery slope argument. One could say that Sterling's ban from the NBA means actions like Shaq's should lead to banning from the NBA. But it won't because an actual person will be analyzing the situation. It's not like a computer program where they plug in the fact and then say this action = banning.
