    Comments Thread For: Haney: I've Had Time To Reflect, I Sincerely Regret Using That Term


    #2
    We all say dumb sheit sometimes. Hope he learns from it, keeps it moving, and does great things.

    But let me make a point. He says he used "a term" and that's not the issue for a couple of reasons. First, there's no offensive term. I don't think I've ever met a white man who sees offense in "white boy." That's not an offensive term.

    Second, and more important, is that it's not the term that is the issue, but the ideology behind the statement. If I slip up and use a term that is offensive, that's one thing. But, if I believe that one group of people is inherently better than all members of another group, then that is wrong regardless of what terminology I use.

      Until I see no one brushing his hair before a fight, I'll give Haney the benefit of the doubt.

        Glad he has responded to the complaints. Now we can all get over it and get back to life. It was something of nothing but in this age everything is scrutinised and critiqued. It was just a dumb thing to say and it didn't go down so well the last time somebody said it.

                He said he regrets it but he never apologized. Way to stand on your words Haney.

                  Now I am back to not liking him. I prefer villain Haney. Out of all the up and comers around 130-135, I dont see what any one sees in him but I was cool with the Villain role.

                    He believes white people are weak and poor fighters...because they are white. That’s what I want him to address. Vague apologies about “terms” don’t say much.
