It’s Outrageous Cal McNair Faced ZERO Consequences For His Anti-Asian Comment
Texans owner Cal McNair was in hot water for making Anti-Asian comments at a charity golf event… except he’s not in any hot water. Can we just take a second to acknowledge how absurd this is?
Let’s rewind here for a second. McNair is at a charity golf event in MAY (somehow nobody found out about this until October which is its own separate story). McNair then goes on to say these words and afterward LAUGHS about it.
“I’m sorry that we couldn’t get together last year, because of the China Virus.”
“Everyone gasped,” one witness said, “especially the people directly across from him. He and Hannah seemed to think it was hilarious. It was dead silent.”
It’s now October and this story has been leaked. McNair quite literally laughed and then only apologized when the story came out and went about his day. There was no punishment. Not even a fine. Nothing.
I’m sorry… what?
When does enough become enough? It took how many years for action to be taken on the Chicago Blackhawks story. Even then Joel Quenneville still somehow coached a game AFTER the news was released about Kyle Beach coming forward.
Jon Gruden was fired after offensive emails were found years later. Donald Sterling was forced out after his racist comments. What has Cal McNair done to allow himself to face quite literally zero backlash from these comments?
When is enough enough? When do we pause and start to care when it doesn’t just affect our lives? A BS apology that he didn’t mean isn’t good enough. Once again, the NFL is sitting on the sidelines doing nothing because there wasn’t video evidence. They only care if the rest of the world can rewatch it.
Blogs and Twitter comments only get so far. It’s time that the rest of the world starts caring enough to where drastic measures need to be taken when things like this happen. Cal McNair gets to go about his day without a care in the world and all the money imaginable despite being an ignorant person. Doesn’t feel right to me. Maybe someone other than me will care?
Let me ask this question. If the Texans weren’t an irrelevant dumpster fire franchise would more people care then? More people threw a fit about Houston’s baseball team stealing signs in a way that quite literally wasn’t against any written rule book. If Younghoe Koo was the Texans kicker would the NFL do something about it? Food for thought.
