Chris Broussard had a hissy fit over the word on Twitter on Saturday.

Saw this when it aired live.

I don't use the word.. Never have used the word.... My friends and people that I know that use the word I have a hard time taking them serious to be honest.

Plenty of words available and people still wanna argue and debate about this one word... Ill never understand.

I saw this live and see where he's coming from though.

At the same time, I couldn't take either him or Shaq seriously after seeing their wardrobe that night. The rise on Chuck's pants was never-ending and Shaq was wearing a short-sleeved dress shirt and tie. :x

Black people don't have an elected official who speaks for us.

Charles Barkley can't give you permission. He speaks for himself. Hell, he can half way speak.

There's also many of us who don't use the word and don't want it used, by ANYBODY

Go watch 12 Years A Slave and come back and tell me it's a term of endearment.

When you refer to your mom or child as that, you can say it's a term of endearment.

Go show Isiah Thomas speak on it from Friday night.

I've made a conscious effort to cut it from my vocabulary over the last 5 years or so. To each his own.

Does trolling ever get old for you or is it the highlight of your pitiful day?

a shame someone who can express himself so eloquently
is attached to all that ALLEGED drama during his knicks tenure

I guess speaking the truth is trolling now
