no

Most certainly. If Ron Franklin is terminated for using the term "sweet baby", I think Jalen Rose's firing is more than warranted. Add the DUI he received over the weekend, and I do not think he stands a chance.

[BOBB]

No. He should be made to stay there and get called a jackass publicly.

[Awesome Sauce Malone]

Absolutely not.

[mmm]

Maybe for this.

Didn't he kinda say that was what he thought back then and he now realizes he was mistaken?

Not giving the guy a pass, but think of all the stupid stereotypes you had when you were eighteen.

That's how I took the quotes.

He didn't say, "I watched a Duke game last night, they're all a bunch of Uncle Tom's."

I'm starting to lose faith in America if people want others fired from their jobs in 2011 for something they believed in 1993.

Ron Franklin didn't say "sweet baby" in 1993 at age 18, he said it in 2010 at age 70. There's a difference.

Maybe Rose will get fired for the DUI, but that's a different thing entirely.
