    The editor either had a brain freeze or too stupid to understand the implication.

        can't beat us 4 games.

        Unless you're an overrated german jumpshooter who goes on a fluke hot streak.

            but his intentions are not clear

            you will hear that phrase thrown around on American sports talk shows daily

            almost as much as "At the end of the day"
            90% of sports headlines include a pun, double meaning or play on words....nothing is straight forward.

            "Breesing pass Marino"

            "Tiger roars again"

            "Manning up!"

            The "other meaning" in this headline is CRYSTAL clear. And racist as hell.

                  I find it amusing there are actually people that try to defend it saying that it wasn't intentional etc. That it somehow was just sheer coincidence that the phrase was used when describing lin.

                  Funny how ESPN used the same phrase when talking about a basketball game in china.

                  It's clearly quite obvious it was used with intent and nobody can defend ESPN.

                  Racism is alive and well in america

                  I'm so glad i don't live there!
