What a shocker.  The popular and now infamous Don Imus is back for more hearty laughs about female college basketball players.  I for one am ecstatic about his return (can you tell I'm being facetious?) and can’t wait for more witty banter between him and his sidekicks.  I’m sure there are plenty more gems for him to uncover that we’ve all been missing this past seven months since his exit from his previous show.  

Funny thing is, I never even knew Imus existed before his comments about the Rutgers female basketball team.  When he starts his radio show I’ll continue to not know anything about him or his show.  

I truly doubt he will stop making sexist and racist comments on his new show because he’s too set in his ways.  Do I think he should be given another chance to have his own radio show?  I think the better question is why would anyone want to have him on their radio channel?  The answer is probably because he brings in decent numbers and for some reason appeals to a certain demographic.

Below are the exact words that Imus and executive producer Bernard McGuirk said on that April 2007 show.  Anyone else dreading Imus’ return to radio?  

Imus: “That’s some rough girls from Rutgers, man they got tattoes, and…
Bernard McGuirk:  Some hardcore hoes.
Imus:  (laughter) That’s some nappy headed ho's there, I’m going to tell you right now.  Man, that’s some, woo.  And uh, the girls from Tennessee, they all look cute you know so.  Kind of like a, I don’t know.
McGuirk:  A Spike Lee thing. 
Imus:  Yeah
McGuirk:  The Jiggaboos versus the wannabees.  That movie that he had.
Imus:  Yeah that was a tough uh.
McGuirk:  Do the right thing.
Imus:  I don’t know if I’d want to beat Rutgers, but they did.”

Which is worse “Jiggaboos versus the wannabees” or “nappy headed ho's?”  Take your pick.
