Onyewu Goes to Court to Stop Racist Abuse
Basically Gooch says that Jelle Van Damme (Anderlecht) called him a "dirty monkey" on the field (I guess Van Damme has a rep for this sort of thing) and Van Damme says: "I'm not going to tell you what I said nor what other people said. Because it doesn't matter. It's football, it's a game. And emotions might flare up, and you sometimes shout something in the heat of the moment. A lot was being said, also by Onyewu. But once the match is finished, you should leave that behind you. You shouldn't go cry about it in the press." So now he's getting sued and I say good job, you very sexy man, especially because it looks like you're the only one who's going to make a huge fuss about it.

Anyway, Jimmy Conrad made you some plans for tonight (he's talking in Central Time):

t's football, it's a game. And emotions might flare up, and you sometimes shout something in the heat of the moment. --oh yeah you know because if I was a player I would definitely say nasty things about your mother & while I'm at it I'd say something about your skin color and compare you to some animal because I'm still a BAMF when I'm all riled up during a game. That's BS! There's nothing better than a player being mature during a hard game. He says it's whining because he's the one getting told off for being pathetic.
RACISM in soccer is serious business and needs to be brought up until it sinks in. There are so many other options to take but calling someone a "dirty monkey" or anything atrocious like that shouldn't be tolerated and it's not acceptable.



I LOVE JIMMY CONRAD! I'm going to read that on his site and laugh. I'm following him on twitter now. He's amazing.
