Anyone noticed the new Marcus Smart RW outrage?

You might recall that Saturday night during an Oklahoma State/Texas Tech basketball game in Lubbock, Ok State star Marcus Smart shoved a fan. The fan claims he called Smart "a piece of crap". Smart allegedly told his coaches and refs he was called a racial slur. Smart was suspended three games for his action.

I noticed on several other message boards that Smart is now being vilified as "using the race card", although he has said nothing publicly about what the fan actually said to him. Not good enough for what I notice to be typical right-wing leaners on the boards I frequent....he's "let it out there" that the fan used the N word or some similar slur and he should apologize.

My guess is Limpballs, Hannity or FAUX and Fuckheads was pushing this today.
