So let me get this right......
Dude said that during PRE-GAME......
Then went on to announce the game for 5 innings no problem, then in the 6th.......he apologizes...... and he is then allowed to continue commentating the game?......
But if it was "Faggot" you're gone immediately and we have a replacement for you......dude wasn't even by himself,
It should've went:
"Glenn you're out. Bucko you're calling the game solo until we can get XXXX to get here."

That about sums it up
People need to look up the clinical definition of Freudian slip. Or more precisely, why they happen and where the word(s) come from.
Motherfuckers talking about it was a mistake. We know it was a mistake motherfucker. But you wouldn't have made it if it wasn't in your dome-piece in the first place.

There are yogis and circus performers who couldn't contort themselves like these fools to try and defend that racist white man.
Man I ain't trippin off of those comments.
Once it happened and I saw some Black people trying to give him a pass, that was all the comments that I needed to see.
Wait
Is he saying he didn’t hear him say that when he was standing right next to him?

NLBM president Bob Kendrick explains decision to forgive Glen Kuiper for using racial slur
MLBPODCASTSBy Brandon Contes on 05/13/2023
After choosing to forgive Oakland Athletics broadcaster Glen Kuiper for using a racial slur on live television, Negro Leagues Baseball Museum president Bob Kendrick says he has been condemned for his compassion.
Prior to the A’s playing the Kansas City Royals last Friday night, Kuiper spoke about his trip to the Negro Leagues Baseball Museum with broadcast partner Dallas Braden during a pregame segment on NBC Sports California. Kuiper attempted to say, “We had a phenomenal day today, Negro League Museum and Arthur Bryant’s Barbeque,” but he mispronounced “negro,” in a way that sounded like a racial slur.
Kendrick was alerted to what Kuiper said on social media and watched a video of the incident hoping it wasn’t true. After watching, Kendrick says he was mortified. “In his enthusiasm to share what a special day that he and Braden had, Glen did indeed utter the N-word,” Kendrick said.
Later in the broadcast, Kuiper addressed the incident. “A little bit earlier in the show, I said something, that didn’t come out quite the way I wanted it to,” Kuiper said. “And I just wanted to apologize if it sounded different than I meant it to be said. And like I said, I just wanted to apologize for that.”
Kuiper has since been suspended indefinitely for using what sounded like a racial slur on live TV and issued a statement to apologize again. “I could not be more sorry and horrified by what I said,” Kuiper said in the statement released by NBC Sports California. “I hope you will accept my sincerest apologies.”Kendrick has accepted Kuiper’s apology and during the latest episode of his Black Diamonds podcast on SiriusXM Radio, he explained why.
“When Glen came back in the broadcast and said he was sorry for what he said, for me, acceptance of his apology was the right thing to do,” Kendrick said, citing his own principles and the values of those who played in the Negro Leagues. “It doesn’t mean I condone what he said, it was certainly an ill-advised kind of situation. I wish it never happened, but it did… I felt I needed to accept his apology. I wanted to accept his apology, because I felt his apology, while others may not, was sincere. And I did not think that he purposely said what he said.”
Most people don’t believe Kuiper acted with malice and attempted to sabotage his career by going on live television to utter a racial slur. But there is also the common belief that an accident like that doesn’t happen to someone unless they’ve privately uttered the slur before.
“If that word is not in your vocabulary, you likely don’t make that Freudian slip,” Kendrick acknowledged. “I’m not naïve enough to not understand that. But as I draw from a spirit of those who played in the Negro Leagues, I too have a forgiving heart.”
Kendrick said he has been condemned on social media for having a forgiving heart, noting that he’s been subjected to name-calling by people who are now spreading the same hate that they’re accusing Kuiper of perpetrating.“And that’s OK. It is quite fine. I’ve often times said that when you walk in your conviction, typically, you’re going to walk by yourself. I have thick skin, I can take it. But I will not allow others to define who I am as a human being,” Kendrick said. “I will not change the principles of who I am as a person and as a human being in this crazy world that we live in.
Glen Kuiper made a horrible mistake. But it was just that, a mistake, at least in my mind. I just cannot simply believe that there was malice intended even though there was malice felt.”
Yet another example of how little power and political clout we have.A commentator said “Knaggar League”, and his cohost chuckled on national TV, and he is still working and collecting a check. Imagine a commentator saying phaggot or kike on National TV. We are the most forgiving group in the US.
I do agree that Black people have comparitively low political clout but I dont think most Black folk have forgiven him...it is sad that the head dude at the museum gave him a pass....the gay movement is White men no matter how many other races you see them put out there in the forefront, so the gays have White supremacy as an ally...Jews? Jews are so powerful that you can't even have an honest discussion about how much power they have without being immediately accused of being antisemitic and having that discussion immediately derailed
The head of the museum "forgiving" him...

I'm just trying to take it all in.
As long as we have been here and with our numbers, why aren’t we more powerful economically and politically?
Boss man, I am Jamaican...if I try to answer that question on this board with the way it currently is, all hell is going to break loose
I will say White supremacy clearly saves it most extreme hatred for Black America but you knew that already...I think the Civil Rights movement allowed liberals in the Democratic party to remove too much of the spirit of revolution from it and too closely aligned the objectives of the movement with those of the Democratic party....there was overlap but the objectives were not mirror images of each other and the Dems should have been reminded of that every step of the way
"White man's ice is colder" syndrome was devastating after the end of segregation and this is a direct result of slavery as I see this syndrome in all societies of descendants of slaves
Complex question with a lot of complex answers but the biggest answer is the simplest answer and this is that the system wanted it that way and was ferocious in how it came after Black progress and those fighting for it... yes there are certain things Black America could have done better but it really is the system putting up roadblocks every step of the way
Shit, imagine Kryie calling it the Kike museum and they still forgave him. That's the only way these situations are comparable.
"The blacks are the real racists because they have not collectively voted for Trump and use the n-word more than Announcer Glen Kuiper could ever dream of!!!"
"The twitter blue-check subscribers agree that it was an honest mistake, so there's that!!!!"
