That’s Brilliant.

HE SAID IT, SO WHAT. WHATS THE BIG DEAL. PEOPLE ARE WAY TOO SENSITIVE THESE DAYS AND DON’T TRY TO COMPARE THIS TO BEING BLACK, THERE IS NO COMPARISON.

I agree.  People have completely lost their sense of humor.  Whatever happened to speaking your mind?  If you don’t like it or agree with it, you still have the right to say so; or do you???

He was trying to be funny, it did not work.

Sorry (not),

The Guru fu*í up!  Part of Jackson’s appeal was (?) his mind, a sense that his intellect was bigger than basket ball.  Do you know he used to take his teams on trips to museum and give them books to read?  Hummmm, in hindsight, that educating the largely white (?!) teams may have been a bit “holier than thou. ”

For background read about Phil Jackson’s strange remarks about race and culture in Scoop Jackson’s ‘Sacred Ignorance’ on ESPN’s Page 2.  Anyway, my impression of him having an enlightened and tolerant intellect was changed in his reckless comments about Broken Back Mountain Defense.  Yes it was funny.  Have I made similar comments under the guise I can because am so culturally aware?  Yes.  But, yet, however…I don’t and should not do that at work.  Words matter.  Labels are meant for food.  Yes it was funny.  But you know that some fans who heard it, were hurt.

it was funny to me.

His comments were funny and that is the real problem.  This country is so Politically Correct we have a bug up our butts about everything.  If the movie could not have commentary on it, it should not have been made.  Heck it really wasn’t that great a movie anyway.  The only reason it got so many awards is that it was about gays in a predominately gay industry.

WELL LET ME SEE!!  Hmmmm!

A Chicago coach, trying to turn a LA team, with a primadona player (Kobe)around, speaking with references to a Gay movie (Brokeback) gets screwed by a politically correct media.  Sounds about right.

Get the F#@K Over it. 

They played like Faggots and he “called it like it was”  End of story.

Now it looks as if Jackson’s getting F*cked in the ass by the media.  I don’t understand it at all.  Aside from Jim Rome, who’s actually offended by this?

I’m so sick of everyone acting so offended by every comment they hear. I feel like I’m back in junior high and the music teacher is always trying to catch the boys using a double meaning to sneak in something dirty. Then we hear what she means and die laughing because we hadn’t thought of that yet!
It’s absolutely idiotic. The media feeds on it becuse it makes a “realistic” sound byte.

PHIL JACKSON WAS NEVER THE COACH THAT HE WAS GIVEN CREDIT FOR. HE HAD THE BEST PLAYER IN THE WORLD IN MICHAEL JORDAN. WENT FROM THAT TO KOBE AND SHAQ THE TWO MOST DOMINANT PLAYERS IN THEIR TIME. HE FAILED IN LOS ANGELES, COULDN’T KEEP THE LAKERS TOGETHER. TO ME HE IS A BELOW AVERAGE COACH. I DON’T SEE WHY HE IS SO TALKED ABOUT GIVEN THE TALLENT THAT HE HAD. I COULD HAVE COACHED THE BULLS AND THE LAKERS TO ALL THOSE TITLES.

your an ass

chief i can’t agree with u more

Talk about losing your sense of humor: You guys actually find 2 year old Brokeback jokes to be funny?

CHRIS FROM WHODAT, HAPPY THANKSGIVING, KEEP UP THE EXCELLENT WORK MY MAN. HAVE A GOOD ONE. PIECE OUT!!!

To chief00 stop hating on Phil Jackson how many coaches have led the LAKERS to championchips the way he has, you are just hating, you must be a celtic fan,they are usually f***s and hate on lakers you even call yourself chief00 you celtic loser, they may be doing good now but it took them long enough what about 20 ,25 years to finally do something and they pretty much had to buy their way into doing well, they might as well have bought SHAQ and KOBE!!! oops thats right they can’t afford them!!!Well CELTIC fan like I said stop hating you loser!!!!!!

K-MONKEY, PHIL JACKSON DIDN’T LEAD THE LAKERS TO ANYTHING SHAQ AND KOBE DID THE WORK. GIVE CREDIT WHERE CREDIT IS DUE STUPID. WITHOUT SHAQ YOU SEE WHAT THE LAKERS REALLY ARE. KOBE IS A SELFISH GUNNER THAT WILL NEVER WIN ANYTHING ELSE. YOU ARE MAD BECAUSE THE CELTICS ARE BACK ON TOP AND THE LAKERS SUCK. I AIN’T HATING ON PHIL I AM JUST STATING FACTS. HE SUCKS AS A COACH WHEN HE DOSEN’T HAVE A DOMINANT PLAYER. ALL HE HAD TO DO WAS MAKE SHAQ AND KOBE GET ALONG AND HE FAILED AT THAT. I SAID IT BEFORE AND I WILL SAY IT AGAIN I COULD HAVE LEAD THE SHAQ AND KOBE LAKERS TO THOSE CHAMPIONSHIPS. BOTTOM LINE PHIL JACKSON GETS ALL THE CREDIT THAT HE DOSEN’T DESERVE, KOBE IS A SELFISH GUNNER, AND YOU ARE THE REAL LOSER IDIOT!!! GO CELTICS!!!

To chief00 it’s kmoney not kmonkey you asshole,you’re the monkey you stupid bastard,black or white you still a dumm monkey,and I am not hating on the celtics you are probably liking the celtics now because they are wining,you’re a loser for sticking up for the celtics,it’s all about money,the celtics are a bought team not talent,Phil jackson has talent on like you, you loser,let me guess next thing you know you’re gonna start liking the best NFL team,which right now it’s pretty close I’d go with Dallas if I were you,I’m gonna help you pick a team this time.And by the way learn how to spell,you don’t even know how to spell “doesn’t”,go back to 1st grade to learn how to spell.

LET ME EXPLAIN SOMETHING TO YOU K-MONKEY. I HAVE BEEN A CELTIC FAN SINCE THE EARLY 80’S I AM NOT A BANDWAGON JUMPER YOU SHOULD KNOW THAT BECAUSE OF MY NAME STUPID! THE LAKERS WEREN’T A BOUGHT TEAM WHEN THEY HAD SHAQ AND KOBE? BY THE WAY I AM A TERRELL OWENS FAN SO I AM ALREADY WITH DALLAS. PHIL JACKSON JUST SUCKS THATS IT. WHY DIDN’T HE TAKE THE JOB IN NEW JERSEY WHEN THEY WANTED HIM? BECAUSE HE KNEW THAT HE CAN’T REALLY COACH AND JUST WOULD BE EXPOSED. THANKS FOR THE SPELLING TIP. YOUR STILL A MONKEY THOUGH. I AM BLACK TOO SO THIS ISN’T A RACE THING. TALK ABOUT MY SPELLING YOU SPELLED YOUR OWN NAME WRONG DUMMY. CHECK 3 POST UP. LOL!!!

hey what up loser?? chief00,I guess you are a celtic fan,congratulations they are whats up right now and how about them dallas cowboys? so you think they are gonna win it all this year?? dont tell me you are a sox fan too!!! because if you are wow you are the bomb dude!! HOLLA BACK!!

YES K-MONEY I AM A SOX FAN, REDSOX THAT IS, AND I DO THINK THAT DALLAS CAN WIN IT ALL BUT IT WILL BE VERY HARD WITH THAT NEW ENGLAND TEAM AROUND. I AM GETTING TIRED OF ALL THE NEW YORK GIANTS ARE GOING TO WIN TALK. WE WILL SEE TOMORROW. GO COWBOYS!!!

K-MONEY WHAT HAPPENED TO OUR TEAM? HOLLA BACK!!!

How great is Phil Jackson now. Without Shaq, he can’t even win it. Put Phil with an average team and you will get average results. Please lets stop all this Zen master shit. Phil is average at best. Let’s also stop all the Kobe is the next Michael Jordan. Jordan WINS championships in situations like this.

I remember the game and the comments made by Phil Jackson… Too funny! They did get boned with no vaseline in that game… for Laker fans, it probably was like a straight guy watching Brokeback Mountain… I know I aint with that Brokeback Shit!! LOL
