Baseball Coach is fired over Racist remarks

Larry Cochell was the Oklahoma college men's baseball coach until last friday when it was reported He called One of His Outfielder's the "N" Word. now I'm not surprised at all. folks think just because it's 2005 that racist language&things don't still go on especially in sports,but I bet cash money that this ain't the first time this cat slipped up&said the word.I bet if this was 1975 nobody would even say a thing to him&laugh it off. if this was 1985 same thing. 1995 I doubt much would have been made. the pattern of acceptence of saying things like this from a authority figure is the norm on so many fronts.the College made him quit His job,but they need to try&solve the Problem as to distancing themselves from him.you have to find out why this is said? sadly this won't be the last time a Manager from a College,High school or a Pro team blurts it out.
