    If Feller wants to say it, so be it. It's one thing for a citizen (albeit HoFer) to make a comment like that, quite another for a radio personality doing his job and breaking out the racists comments.

    By the way, that radio guy losing his job was ridiculous. He should have been punished, yes, but fired? That seems extreme.

    I agree he should of not lost his job. I've heard ALOT worse on multiple stations. I wonder if Alou would have made such a big deal about it if there wasn't the attack on him?

    This politically incorrect crap needs to stop.

    If someone wants to run their mouth, you can always choose to not listen.

    Some people, not necessarily here, but in general, need to grow some thicker skin.

    Feller fought for the right to say anything he wants. The parts I've heard seemed like the the interviewer was baiting him and chomping at the bit to put himself in the limelight.......

    With his credentials, and at his advanced age...he can saw whatever he wants. He's a private citizen..unlike that knucklehead Al Campanis.
