It’s official, no second chances, Don Imus is a racist pig, according to reports…..
Don Imus, the radio jock who was fired last year for calling the Rutgers women’s basketball team “nappy-headed hos,” has once again put his foot in his mouth in comments related to the world of sports. Pro Football Talk passes along the audio:
When one of Imus’s on-air partners discussed Dallas Cowboys cornerback Adam Jones’ legal troubles, Imus asked, “What color is he.” When told that Jones is African-American, Imus said, “Well, there you go. Now we know.”
The full transcript is below.
Wolf: “Defensive back Adam ‘Pacman’ Jones, recently signed by the Cowboys. Here’s a guy suspended all of 2007 following a shooting in a Vegas night club.”
Imus: “Well, stuff happens. You’re in a night club, for God’s sake. What do you think’s gonna happen in a night club? People are drinking and doing drugs, there are women there, and people have guns. So, there, go ahead.”
Wolf: “He’s also been arrested six times since being drafted by Tennessee in 2005.”
Imus: “What color is he?”
Wolf: “He’s African-American.”
Imus: “Well, there you go. Now we know.”
