I'm reminded of how, when you went on certain forums in the early 2000s people were falling all over themselves to exonerate dennis and callahan when they were making their racist comments.

Some people need a guy in a hood with a deep southern accent saying the N-word standing next to a federal judge before they believe in racism.

Holy shit this guy is nothing like Dennis and Callahan. They would never have owned up to what they said and learned from it. They are scum.

He doesn’t need to learn from it. It he didn’t think or know it was racist then he wouldn’t have first asked Felger if the guys in the room could hear him. No Mazz but we did.

They literrally said what you are saying. "No racists connections intended, blah blah, blah"

Again, if you go back, you comment is just like guys carrying water for Callahan and Dennis back in the day.

Obviously, Mazz isn't as bad as Dennis and Callahan, and later Minihane, but the support that they had and people saying that they "didn't have a racist bone in their body." Led to them spiraling out and saying crazier and worse things until the whole thing was shut down a few years ago.

If they didn't have defenders back then, they might not have gone as far as they did.

What did Minihane say that was worse than what Mazz said? Calling a reporter a gutless bitch for asking a stupid question isn't as bad as what Mazz said.

Minifan here and was curious if anyone who knows nothing about Kirk or KMS would try and lump him into this
