Re: Darko's Value

Try reading other boards on occasion. This one ain't the only one. As I said on another board, unless you know how to speak Serbian, and are familiar with what goes as acceptable (which can be pretty raunchy), I would not try to judge Darko.

What if you were in a very strongly religious country, and you heard someone over here had sworn, using a very common swear word meaning you want someone to be damned by their creator. Are you going to start preaching that the American who said that meant what he said, and should be severly punished for such a thing? Are you really ready to judge someone's severity of swearing-without even knowing the language, or what goes as the norm?

Re: Darko's Value

And some of you didn't think he had fire. He has too much. He needs therapy he's so intense. He needs a transponder bracelet on his ankle and neighborhoods should be notified when he is within 50 miles.

find me 1 link where someone says that thats the norm for serbians. Swearing whatever. He was pretty specific as the WHAT he wanted to do with the refs, their moms and their daughters. I don't care how many expletives he uses but to defend that behavior with a cultural shield is to insult that culture. Oh yeah. Serbians to that to each others moms all the time.

Re: Darko's Value

The problem here is...even the loose translations have all been pretty consistent. I don't care what country your from, that's pretty vile and there's no amount of explaining about dialects, cultures, and/or linguistics that makes that kind of rant excusable.

I find it remarkable that anybody can still make excuses for this guy. If someone like Barry Bonds had said something even close to this, there would be a public execution.

Lee,
I come from the same part of the world Darko comes from, and my language is close enough to get a pretty good understanding of what he did say. And I'll say this - it is unacceptable in Serbia just like it is unacceptable here in US.

Lazy, when I first heard about this and thought about fan reaction, I thought about you. I'm sorry to see you are disappointed and appreciate your classy and thoughtful perspective.
