This team is promoting an assistant to be the interim head coach. I can't see any scenario we go out and bring someone brand new into the organization till at least the off season.
I've heard a guy at work (well, an after work thing) do exactly this, though he wasn't quoting a particular song - he was saying "it's all N---- this...". But he got an immediate reaction and then, I understand, a reprimand from HR.
"N music" is as bad as calling someone the N word. Especially given who was playing it.
Yup, its derogatory, imagine describing other things using that word. No place anywhere.
Disappointed to hear the initial report, and disgusted with Peters upon hearing the corroboration. Absolutely no place for it. Hopefully the Flames handle everything properly, which I fully expect they will. A quick dismissal is probably the best thing for the club and maybe we get lucky and the new coach will provide the spark that players seem to need.
Pretty sad. I cannot or will not tolerate racial abuse. Discipline and constructive criticism is one thing. This is completely unacceptable. The Flames will handle this properly. Bye, Bill.

Yikes. Those details are pretty bad. Not sure there's a way back for Bill here.
