Believe it or not, that foul-mouthed, racist golf caddy Steve Williams
still has a few defenders. Yes, you guessed it---Williams has been
loudly defended all weekend on Auckland's infamous radio station
NewstalkZB---which will come as no surprise to anyone, bearing in mind
that NewstalkZB management has defiantly continued to employ out-and-
out racists MURRAY DEAKER, PAUL HOLMES, LEIGHTON SMITH despite their
repeated indulgence in the most virulently racist on-air rants.
Saturday, November 5, 2011
All afternoon, NewstalkZB host Willy Lose (AKA Wiwwy Wose) repeatedly
informs his listeners ("wistenahs") that he is utterly mystified that
anyone could see anything wrong with Williams' words. To discuss the
matter further, he speaks to Hong Kong-based PGA correspondent NICK
DYE...
WILLY LOSE: Nick, I'd wike your comments pwease. Steve Wiwwiams
appawwentwy said 'It was my aim to shove it wight up that bwack
asshoww.' Do you think it's too much to weport a wight-hearted comment
wike that?
NICK DYE: What do YOU think, Willy? Would YOU say something like that
in public?
WILLY LOSE: Ahhhhh... ummmm... no, I wouldn't.
NICK DYE: Would you say it was all "good fun and banter"?
WILLY LOSE: Hmmmmm. [Long pause] Do you think theah wiww be sanctions
against him?
NICK DYE: It's only going to get worse for Steve Williams from here
on.
WILLY LOSE: Nick Dye fwom Hong Kong. Thanks vewy much.
NICK DYE: Thank you.
WILLY LOSE: Gosh, what a wot of fuss about a wittaw bit of a tongue-in-
cheek comment. I'd wike to heah your views, wistenahs. Wing now on

So, the big question is: Will MURRAY DEAKER see anything wrong with
Steve Williams saying he'd like to "shove it up that black asshole"?
Well, what do YOU think, readers?....
DEAKER: It's nothing more than GOSSIP. People just love seeing someone
successful in the cart. What would I say to my mate Steve? Well, I
would have advised him to apply my three litmus tests before he ever
says anything in public. Those three litmus tests are as follows.
Number 1: How's it gonna benefit ME? Number 2: How's it gonna benefit
my family? And number 3: Am I gonna make any MONEY out of it? Those
are the three litmus tests, and if you don't pass them, my advice is
to say nothing---because even if you joke light-heartedly like Steve
did at this Caddy's Dinner in Hong Kong, they're going to jump all
over you.
I tell you what, though, Adam Scott has gone to new heights, the way I
look at life. Adam said he's sticking with Steve, because he's a top
caddy.
Make no mistake: the clobbering machine is out to get Steve Williams.
[steadily getting angrier] I see that the Daily Mail quoted an
"unnamed caddy" as saying: "We knew he was an idiot but we didn't know
he was a racist idiot." [Pausing for effect, loudly breathing through
nostrils] If someone is unnamed, you can be sure that the writer is
MAKING IT UP.
[audibly frothing at the mouth] And I see a quote from an "unnamed
official" on the European circuit: "I'm glad he's not on our
circuit." [long, long pause for effect] Does ANYBODY in their RIGHT
MINDS believe there really WAS an unnamed official?

PRESSURE MOUNTS OVER WILLIAMS' RACIAL INSULT
(AFP) – 3 hours ago
SHANGHAI — Pressure was mounting Sunday on the European Tour to
investigate caddy Steve Williams after his racial insult aimed at golf
legend Tiger Woods caused worldwide revulsion.
Williams sparked outrage when he used a racial slur to refer to former
employer Woods after he collected an award during a caddies' gala
dinner at the WGC-HSBC Champions in China on Friday evening.
Several leading players -- including Williams' new Australian boss
Adam Scott -- dismissed his racial slur as nothing more than a
misguided joke "that should never have left the room".
Williams posted an online statement Saturday apologising to Woods and
admitting his comments "could be construed as racist" after fellow
caddies, fans and sponsors reacted with disgust to his remarks.
But the players' casual reaction and silence from the sport's leading
officials has been seen as a closing of ranks, and anti-racist groups
lined up to condemn the European and PGA tours for failing to censure
Williams.
Sally Dhalu, secretary of the UK anti-racism group One Society, Many
Cultures, said: "I don't think an apology is enough. The only way to
root [racism] out and prevent other people from behaving in the same
way is to take disciplinary action.
"An investigation should be conducted," she was quoted as saying by
the UK's Daily Telegraph newspaper.
The European Tour has so far refused to comment on the scandal.
But HSBC bank, the main sponsor of Asia's flagship golfing tournament,
has been keen to distance itself from the row, which has overshadowed
the event in Shanghai.
"Any kind of racially motivated comment in this day and age is
unacceptable and cannot be tolerated," HSBC group head of sponsorship
Giles Morgan told AFP Sunday.
"It is not up to us to take action [against Williams] and I understand
European Tour officials will be making a statement later today. We are
keen to get back to focusing on what is a great golfing tournament,"
he added.
New Zealander Williams was employed by Woods for 12 years, the pair
winning 72 tournaments together with the caddy earning an estimated US
$3 million, before their acrimonious split in the summer.
The 47-year-old caddy, who kept silent during Woods' sex scandal, is
believed to have struggled to come to terms with his axing and issued
a series of barbed comments before his racial slur.
Williams has previously courted controversy with his outspokenness and
gruff personality, once calling Phil Mickelson a "right prick",
insulting spectators and bullying the media.
He was again due on the first tee with world number 8 Scott on Sunday.
Scott is in third place on 13 under overall going into the fourth and
final round of the US$7 million tournament, three shots off the leader
Fredrik Jacobson of Sweden.
Many golf commentators have expressed surprise that Williams was still
carrying the bag of Scott, a rising young star who is keen to foster a
supporter-friendly image.
Some golf fans who spoke with AFP Saturday said Williams' apology was
insufficient and further disciplinary action should be taken against
him for bringing shame on the sport.

It's time to clear a few things up for one of our dear old friends

organization since late 2005.

Not strange at all. Radio Transcripts Ltd is a division of Daisycutter

Now you're on to something a little more substantive, JohnO. I think
at times we can throw both charges at Breen and make them stick quite
easily. (Strictly on the QT, my friend: the drinking issue had quite a
bit to do with his exclusion from Daisycutter Sports Inc.)

You cannot be serious. Campbell would claim Murray "Too many dark
faces in the All Blacks" Deaker was not a racist if Deaker asked him
to. Campbell's pathological "Mister Nice Guy" act is all he has now.
It gets him about as much respect as a cheap Thai prostitute on board
an England Rugby team's bus.

Tiger's a nice guy. He knows how to play the game. Indulging a stupid,
racist former bag-carrier is not the hardest thing he's ever had to
do.
>

I can't speak for Breen's golfing expertise, but I can assure you that
this writer knows next to nothing about the game. And he's proud of
it.
