12. She may not be your friend..
But she's a friend of Tigers. The comment she made was not INTENTIONAL. That doesn't mean it wasn't racist or insensitive.. it was. I just don't think she in anyway intended it to be.

If she had said the same thing about a white guy, it wouldn't have been thought about twice. And, with her & Tiger being friends - I don't think she thinks of his race when she talks about him. I know I don't think about my friends race when I talk about them.

Stupid? Yes. Intentional? No. She was suspended... that's enough.
