Ask youself whether Calderon, Rubio or Gasol support the enforcement of superiority of one race OVER another.

Or are they simply jealous?

Spaniards have the dubious honor of having the most racist soccer fans in europe. monkey sounds when black players touch the ball and throwing bananas into the field.

I've read about stuff like that being done in the UK as well. When Ewing was at Georgetown, opposing "fans" threw bananas on the court. Some countries are more open about it but racism is everywhere, unfortunately.

The St Johns fans in MSG were brutal toward Ewing.

Not as bad as the people were when he was in the Boston area.

What I hate, is all the freaks who were ragging him then wanted him to come to their school instead of Georgetown.

I love the Standing Tall video.
