The Arkanssouri Blog.: Term of endearment?

Tuesday, June 15, 2004

No, people. It's not. There is no situation in which the C-word is not a term of derision.

Tom Hanna said...: It's not worth arguing whether some of the, I believe your term was "urban", football players might use that word as a term of endearment from time to time. I did note the following that was interesting:

"A lawyer for one of the women asked Hoffman about former CU kicker Katie Hnida being called the "c- word" by a teammate....That player was later disciplined by coach Gary Barnett for making the remark."

This ranks right up with the Abu Ghraib "scandal" where the responsible individuals were arrested in March and CBS broke the story in May. He said it and was disciplined. Suing the university is just about money.; 6:16 PM

Maybe the suit isn't necessarily (all) about money. Maybe it's about being taken seriously - or getting even.
