Lets not forgot the time he said he was surprised Japanese people were like regular people during Nagano
Or when he said Jagr would be on the streets with a loaf of bread and an onion if it wasnt for the USA
If you want to bring up past points .... I think the jagr comment had more to do with jagrs gambling problem.
And the Japanese comment was I reference to the comfort level he felt.
The guy fucked up, but so are everyone of us trying to believe we really know what he meant or his meaning of comments in the past.
This was a gimme .... meant to happen.
It was a shame he leaves in a mess like this, but because of the external pressures from advertisers, it was a simple choice.
85 years old and still moving forward .....
The irony is that we have on television, different channels that only cater to certain races and perspectives...... and you never hear shit about their racism lol.
If I may be so bold as to make a prediction: comedy will be the next subtraction of our holier than thou attitude ..... because imho, most comedy is at the expense of someone else. And I havent found much humour which isnt directed at something racist, sexist or anothers short comings.
Get ready you keepers of the conscience, your turn is coming lol.
