Cincinnati coach "steps away" from team after using a racial slur

[concise]

The defense?
He was just singing along to a song.


FC Cincinnati coach accused of using racial slur; MLS, club investigating

The issue came to the team’s attention Thursday when it was notified by Major League Soccer, which received a complaint from the Major League Soccer Players Association (MLSPA).

When questioned about the incident, Jans told FC Cincinnati President Jeff Berding he said the word when singing along with music played in the locker room.

Later, a player took Jans aside to tell him that was unacceptable in America. Jans, 61, is from the Netherlands.

"The Players Association was very recently made aware of extremely inappropriate comments made by FC Cincinnati coach Ron Jans," MLSPA said in a statement provided to The Enquirer. "We have made a report to the appropriate league officials and expect an immediate and thorough league investigation to be conducted."

Nick Hagglund, Spencer Richey and Greg Garza serve as the team representatives for MLSPA, but could not be reached for comment.

In a separate incident, the complaint against Jans says he made inappropriate comments about slavery before the Oct. 6 game against D.C. United. In that case, it was said after Jans spent time at the nation's memorials and was meant to inspire the team to overcome adversity.

I actually notice this with a lot of Europeans. They try to be down but don’t understand anything about Black ppl and end up doing shyt like this or say ignorant shyt about Black ppl while looking up to our cool factor.

Its ok to slap people sometimes

But just be sure to ask that ignorant muthafukka afterwards,

"Now what have we learned here today?"

 

[JLova]

And this is the problem with dropping nbombs all over songs trying to "take away the word's power". One of the dumbest things I've ever heard.

Not condoning what he did...

Unfortunately true lots of times. At least the NBA euros have cats in the locker room who can teach them shyt.

Edit : repeat offender

Look i work with these white euros. Don't be stupid and fall for the BS that they don't know this shyt is wrong. They know the shyt is wrong and are habitual line steppers.

They will say some racist shyt and be like umm no offense and then you got to check them.

They play that I don't understand shyt like latins play that me no speak english when you catch them doing shyt or ask them questions.

DO NOT FALL FOR THE BS!
