Georgia Tech Football Coach in Hot Water Over Comments
He's not known for his magnetic personality, but Georgia Tech Football Coach may have some additional explaining to do following a set of comments he made during his weekly call-in show.
At the end of his show, a caller got through and said, "Hello? Hello?" and then began barking before either hanging up or being quickly cut off. Johnson responded, "Hello? Hello? He just got off from Walmart." People offended here: Walmart employees.
He then added, "Anybody who calls into a radio show and barks is either retarded or doesn’t have a life." People offended here: Handicapped and mentally challenged individuals.
A makeshift apology has already been made by Johnson. In recent years, the word "retarded" has been regarded as a slur.
We'll see what developes on this story in the next day or so.
