I'm Catholic but it doesn't bother me too much. I guess my biggest problem is that somehow he didn't think it would be a problem if he said it. That lack of judgement bothers me a lot more that the phrase itself.

i'm catholic too and find it hilarious. so huggs. the cover job will be more fun to watch than the original thought though. he has a great incoming portal class and is a beloved figure in west virginia. still, woke professors will be in uproar, i'm sure.

Ha… as a now non-practicing Catholic myself, any catholic offended by these words has truly never studied the actual history of Catholicism

Obviously you don’t know the history between Nebraska and Notre Dame back in the Knute Rockne era when Nebraska fans called Notre Dame names like fish eaters because they were Catholic…

Story be told Rockne enjoyed the train ride to Los Angeles so much that he decided to play Southern Cal every year and not play Nebraska anymore..

Nebraska was the only team to beat the 4 horseman twice..

guy was the coach at U Cincy for a long time

Cincy vs X hoops is one of the great rivalries in all of college sports

nobody will bat an eye at this - nor should they - and if anything it makes everyone like Huggins more to see his hatred still burn hot

he's got quite the transfer class coming in this year

The bishop came in and told the Pope "I have some good news and some bad news."

The Pope said, "Tell us the good news."

The bishop said, "God is on the phone.'

The Pope said, Tell us the bad news."

The bishop said, "The call is coming from Salt Lake City."

What are you yammering about now? I mean… you’re just not important. No matter of geriatric nonsensical rambling will ever change that.

Raised Catholic, don’t practice it anymore. Even if I did I wouldn’t care. Too many twinks get their panties in a bunch over every little thing. It’s like the posters here that piss all over themselves when they see a topic they don’t like. None of them ever learned to just ignore it, just like those upset about a meaningless comment of a basketball coach on the radio. It literally doesn’t matter.

Im really not seeing who is upset about what he said. Every post is saying they dont care or even allude to agreement.

It’s clear. The types of people that complain about this stuff (or topics here) are the same people. Unhappy lives, looking for reasons to be offended

All humor aside, the second one mentioned would bring more to worry about than getting fired. A liberal insult would earn him superstar status akin to Mr Pillow and any mention of the Buddha would not move the needle in any direction.
it certainly wasn't the catholic reference that got him in hot water. one can demean religion until hell hovers, but don't say a word about the lbgxyz movement.

What's the history of Catholicism as it relates to being offended by being called a Catholic f***?

When I was young I was told the sticks and stones montage. Somehow I survived those days. 🙄 Now a days people are just looking for a reason to get pissed off and offended. What a feeble world we live in.

back to the subject, it's a shakespearian tragedy of sorts if huggs is fired over this tin ear approach to media. there are things that we hold in our heart that we just can't say in public and expect not to have consequences. i wonder if he was drunk or thought his comment would be edited out before being broadcast? his apology was clearly written by a lawyer.

I don’t know what possessed this board to be so proud of being a bunch of old sheltered white men in Nebraska that panic if someone doesn’t look like Tom Osborne
This post makes zero sense. Again another post from the troll that doesn't even troll well. Stop being racist.

Only thing that makes sense is he didn't know it would be put on the air. I guess? Because if he just didn’t care then why issue an apology. Questionable decision making either way.

Context matters and face it, a correct "punishment" is not firing a guy over this.
If he was my employee, he'd already be gone. My employees sign an ethics and character statement. They know, that this language in or around the office or on any public social media platform is unacceptable and grounds for termination. I wont stand for someone degrading another human because of their gender, race, ethnicity, religion or whatever. They just don't represent themsleves, they are a representation of me and my family's company. I'd imagine that the school would have something similar.

This is why people rip on you behind your back and are constantly looking for new jobs while "working" at your place.

What if one of your super workers said "I like my coffee, like I like my men, black" Do you terminate them on the spot?

What if a super worker at your place mispronounced the African country of Niger? Fired by the end of the day?

What if one of your super worlds said "My son told me today, he said he is ***** and proud and I love him for telling me". When do you fire them?

What if one of your super workers said they hated Christmas because they hated Jesus? When do. you can them?

What if one of your black employees sings part of a rap song that a has the N word in it? Do you throw him out on his *** that second?

What if a super worker said "I can't believe my favorite team drafted a white guy". termination?

Lmao. You have no clue what my employee turnover looks like. Also, you clearly can't separate the scenarios. It's a good thing you don't own a business. I would say, based on your knowledge (or lack there of) you should tread lightly at work. Good luck out there buddy.

So, like I said, context matters, right?

Did we really need your chest bumping "the company I run" post when you could have just agreed with me, like you just did?

Also, please don't call me buddy, I find it offensive. (Fired?)

And I do own a business, a Belonging and Inclusive training company.

1. I knew you would edit to post about that
2. LMAO? That is offensive language, on public social media. I assume you will be resigning tomorrow?

I run my own businesses and will NEVER have anything within them that even remotely resembles an ‘HR Department’. No ‘incident reports’, no ‘regulatory compliance’… f*ck that ****. This is EXACTLY what is destroying our country and making us a the laughingstock of the world. No one respects us anymore. Illegals come here because they can buy better shoes and get Free **** from Other People’s Money, but they know full well how utterly f*cked we are. Least of which is exemplified by them walking across with literally zero restriction. We ALL Know we’re on borrowed time already.

This is quite entertaining. Please keep going on about how you can't contextualize between your chimerical scenarios and the one we are discussing. You clearly are an idiot. RollingLaugh
