What's this?

I heard it.


I did hear (read) it. I don't think it showed up on this board, but I'm not completely sure. I definitely read it on another board. It is pretty insulting and Jon did not deserve it. Jon is a fellow Buff for Life. He was dealt a bad hand at a bad time. Jon is a good man and a strong man and he deserves to be treated as such.

(By the way, I don't find "water boy" racist. It is no more racist than cabin boy, ball boy, cabana boy, tent boy, house boy, bat boy and so on. All of these terms mean the "boy" is an attendant of some type who is young and inexperienced. I guess some people want to see racism around every corner in this world because it fits some sort of agenda they have.)
Stepping off soapbox ;-)
