"[Luol Deng]'s still a young guy overall," Ferry said, league sources with direct knowledge of the probe told Yahoo. "He's a good guy overall. But he's not perfect. He's got some African in him. And I don't say that in a bad way."

Wut?

Anyway, is it possible to dislike racism and at the same time worry that this is a dangerous precedent? Anyone who says anything vaguely racist or offensive can be forced to sell?

Yes, but you can't say that unless you want to be called a racist or an Oreo. This is exactly what cubes was talking about with respect to sterling.

I think Kareem has it about right. It is just another case of race lynching that we like to do these days.
