davem Posted March 5, 2015 Posted March 5, 2015 "There is no place for such racial behaviour in our sport and society." It should read 'racist behaviour'. While you can ban it in a particular place that you control, the real challenge is changing what is in peoples' hearts.
SwissVan Posted March 5, 2015 Posted March 5, 2015 Quote:" A few days later, Mr. Day laid a counter charge against Mr. Kaka" I don't think that was mentioned before?Does that imply that Day thought that Kaka's behavior was not entirely "innocent" as portrayed to the public? Anyway...mountain molehill he said she said we said.... Day is going to get his neck wound in by CSA I suspect

davem Posted March 5, 2015 Posted March 5, 2015 (edited) Thanks - fixed it in the release. I was actually correcting their choice of words. Don't know what was in the actual press release. I assumed you pasted it as you received. The two words have very different meanings. Edited March 5, 2015 by davem nonky and Matt 2
SwissVan Posted March 5, 2015 Posted March 5, 2015 i actually mentioned it yesterday after the tv interview with CSa president. You were on TV talking about it just kidding, ja sorry I missed a lot of the discussions about it and then it got censored.... milky4130 1
