Since I originally posted this:
1. Harrell apologized which is great. Its how it should be handled in real life.
2. Most fans gave weak excuses for what he said.
My personal opinion is that there is no other slang that is equivalent for the N word towards a white person.
In my own experience this is exactly the same as white "boy" is used for adults and in this context its exactly the same as the N word.
I also think that if someone said the N word in a majority white sport like Nascar to a black person it would make national headlines.
I think there is a double standard, since this should go both ways, and its ironic as the players are sporting "Equality" on their jerseys.
I hope that this will change and things like this will be squashed and handled well like this was between Luka and Motrezl.
