Message: [QUOTE="sharris952, post: 2597771, member: 7956"] The problem is that the lawsuit is more about principal than anything thus the meager $75,000. As stated in the lawsuit all Dawn wanted was a retraction and/or apology for an unfounded accusation. If the Mizz could prove it, his arrogance would not have let him sit on said proof. Obviously, he was given a chance by the SEC commissioner and did not hence the $25,000 fine. I am African American and words and accusations like these normally come to often and go unpunished which cuts a little deeper especially when it involves this particular racial epithet and spitting which is the lowest form of degradation possible imo. This accusation was reported on the ESPN crawler, USA today, Washington Post, and in New York Times. I am sorry that Dawn will not just move on but frankly, I don't think she should. As I stated, what he said about an African American woman whose team in majority African American cuts deep and unless you have been where she has been and built your life around her service to country and the game of basketball, you cannot relate. No she will not just go away and shut up. If nothing else, the judge or proceedings will at least establish no proof of his insane accusations that I feel were meant to endure himself to his fanbase, yet in a very foolish and irresponsible way.
