Mac told Mitch to "Find another monkey" knowing good goodamn well who was in the bullpen warming up for his show.

Now maybe he didn't know he was to be replaced by a Balck man at the time, but 8 weeks later, knowing a balck took over the job... why would you say "find another monkey"?
I hope Lawy doesn't run into Mac in the elevator. That could be the fiercest near fight ever.

I'm going to say no. It's a pretty common colloquialism and applies to anyone . If it were Finfer who had been filling in its still apt. I don't even consider it a bad choice of words.

Can I still make baseless accusations?

You need Beardown's permission for that.

Thank you. In that case.... Your mother was a hamster and your father smelt of elderberries!

I don't think it was meant that way. Don't know for sure obviously, but Mac could have just as easily said "find another clown/idiot" and the phrase would have still meant the same thing.

No. C'mon. By saying "Find another monkey", Mac was calling himself a monkey.

I hate when people reach to find racism, as you all know. Pet peeve of mine.

Right. Mac's show has never had a lot to do with race. Unlike another show on the Score.

I default to Jorr's views on race. :lol:

I think he said "Dancing Monkey". A pretty clear shot at my people.

I don't listen to that one, but I'll take your word for it. I was thinking of another show. :lol:
