A college football broadcast came to a screeching halt yesterday because of announcer Bob Griese -- after he verbally vomited a highly inappropriate comment about Colombian NASCAR driver Juan Pablo Montoya.

Really are people that offended? Thats very weak arguement, who cares grow some balls and man up. Some people deserve to be called what they are, Negro, or Cuban or etc. I could care less about someone making a joke or wisecrack like that. Insensitive weaknesses are for pussy's.

I roll solo, other countries crimes do not intimidate me.

For those of you who missed the point: Not all Latinos are Mexicans, not all Latinos park their cars on their front lawns, not all Latinos are illigal aliens, not all Latinos have 10 people living in their one-bedroom apartment, not all Latinos Do Not Speak English (in the states), not all Latinos like salsa music, not all Latinos are Democrats, not all Latinos place their clotheslines in front of the house.
Not all blacks sing and dance, not all blacks play basketball, not all blacks eat watermelon and fried chicken as their main diet.
Not all people from the south sleep with their sister or cousin. Not all people from the south are red necks.
But ALL people who automatically place the above ethnic groups in the above-mentioned categories are MORONS.
And for those of you who still don't understand it, Mexican food is consumed only in Mexico as their main diet. Colombians eat Colombian food. Even if the broadcaster had said he's eating a "Bandeja Paisa'', it still would NOT be a true statement since Bandeja Paisa does NOT represent Colombia as the main diet.
Sorry guys, I guess you need to live in Colombia a few more years to REALLY understand the Colombian culture.

what is it, you don't like about JPM, Mononoke?
I know, last year and before, many people said he was 'an ass', or something,... but
He's been really a gentleman/polite and all this year, as far as I can tell.
He's simply caught up in trying to get to the front of his chosen 'sport',... .if you call that a sport.

Besides the fact that he's a pompous a-hole (footage of this abounds the internet). I think he's a sore loser. He couldn't deal with Michael Schumacher winning every time in Formula One so he decided to jump ship. And he still can't win.

But putting that whole Fomula One/NASCAR stuff aside... he's still a jerk. A jerk's a jerk no matter what they are or what they do for living.

A Colombian getting upset about that? C'mon now! If your fat your new name now is Gordo a If your skinny your new name is Flaca flaco, if your black your new name is Negro a, if your white your new name is Blanco or gringo o mono and if you are Montoya your new name is Taco.... jiji Welcome to Colombia receive your names upon entry and don't get offended.

All that up in the high life you can have it. False rich, false friends and well a false life. Get down to the bear bones of it and you will find yourself, your friends and your life. Colombia can show you the way if you look...
