Speaking of catholics isn't biden on of those?

The Catholic hospital system the Biden administration had nearly forced to lose its accreditation over an eternal flame in its chapels is relieved that, after it threatened litigation, the federal government backed off, its counsel told Fox News Digital Monday.

The federal government had attempted to force the St. Francis Catholic hospital system Oklahoma to choose between losing its accreditation for Medicaid and Medicare or removing eternal flames from its chapels, which is central to their faith. The hospital system refused, citing their First Amendment rights and religious beliefs.

Yeah, I think it was more Xavier itself that was the target of his ire.

I doubt Huggins has spent ten minutes of his life thinking about the catholic church.

WVU's president is Gordon Gee who was removed as OSU's president after making a few "offensive" remarks. I used quotes as I don't really think what Gee said was insensitive, just made in jest.

RE: Bob Huggins in trouble?
That was nothing more than a good natured jab by Huggs at Cunningham, who is a X grad and Catholic. That's all Huggs needs to say relative to an apology. BTW Cunningham was MC of the Huggins roast back in 2006. WVU had a super solid portal transfer class and Cunningham asked if any were X players, he should have just no because their GPAs were to low or something like that.

IMO, the apology statement issued by Huggins should be sufficient to move on from this. He said a nasty offensive thing and he apologized, that's what you should do.

But given our culture these days, it probably won't be.

That's easy to say when you've been a user of that word on this website. I'm sure people who've had the word used against them would have a much different view.

I don't think he should lose his job but "a good natured jab is all he needs to say relative to an apology" would not be a respectful response -- it doesn't acknowledge that the word is awful or admit wrongdoing for using it.

Huggins' apology did acknowledge the word was awful to use and he didn't make any excuses for using it.

Foul language, no doubt, from the old master, Bobby Huggins. Not appropriate but I don't think he should be fired or even strongly punished. I've used far worse language, insulting folks of every creed, color and gender. I sometimes insult myself.

We live in a nasty, self-entitled, narcissistic and confrontational society. I accept that reality (and the fact that I sometimes contribute to that nastiness) and try to do my best to improve myself.

Huggs has his flaws but I strongly feel he has a big heart.

Well said.

If West Virginia University is of the view that it is acceptable for senior personnel to use anti-gay slurs against Catholics, then it should take no action here.

Yeah I also got banned for months and haven't repeated it. If you want to it personal that's fine.

He's gone... you had a dude at OSU accidently read out the "N" word and was forced to resign. There is no way you recover from this in this day and age. Sad, but inevitable.

I'm not so sure. IMO, the "N" word is kind of in a category of its own in that regard.

That said, it wouldn't surprise me if Huggins is forced out.

If Mr Huggins departs, it's a case of him letting himself out. We'll see.

Wearing a propeller hat that says 'PLEASE FIRE ME' in blinking neon on a public broadcast makes it really hard for your employer to slow the revolving door.

LOL - I am more a man than any of the bigots trying to excuse his actions.


Funny how the so-called "men" that always want others to take responsibility for their actions, want to give bigots a free pass
