As others have said, I really couldn't care less what Larry Bird thinks about this...it's his opinion and he certainly has the right to express it - whether it is racist or not, he has the right to express his opinion. That's the great thing about living in this country - we can express an opinion whether it offends anyone or not. This fear of offending people has gone way too far, IMO...as a side note, the clips I have seen of the Bird comments show Magic and LeBron James sitting there laughing, nodding their heads, and agreeing with what Bird is saying...
