I never said anything about "code words." That was someone else. I just stated that your comments could be seen as insensitive or offensive by the way you characterized an African-American person. Especially if that very same language is not used to characterize a Caucasian coach that does similar or has similar character. I cannot tell you what they are if you are not familiar with people that are not white and what might offend them. I do know that if you are ever around a lot of people in your personal life that are do not look like you. I think you not trying to offend people come from what is deep inside. I cannot tell you what words to use when you have no core in you sole to know what could be seen as upsetting to people.
