Unbelievable - MSNBC Anchor Says "N*ggers" Instead of "Lakers" While Reporting Kobe Bryant's Death MSNBC Anchor Says “N*ggers” Instead of “Lakers” While Reporting Kobe Bryant’s Death  Can you believe these people.  When you're talking about the Lakers, do you get mixed up and say Niggers by accident.  I can understand if one meant to say Lakers and said instead, fakers, or bakers, but niggers is not even in the same language group. You don't just accidentally say Nigger instead of Lakers unless that is the word your thinking. LOL - Reminds me of Blazing Saddles "I extend a warm welcome, and a hearty handshake to our new....nigger".
