EUR FEEDBACK (MYfeedback@eurweb.com)

*Eddie Laborde (no city given):
"Bryant Gumbel's remarks on HBO is par for him. I'm not a racist, never have been, but it's people like Gumbel who keep trouble going all over the world.

HBO Sports should have taken him off the air a long time ago. If he has a problem with a person, their race, religion etc ... should not be the reason to bash a person.

Mr. Gumbel should never be in a position again where he can use the networks to promote hate and racial remarks to anyone."

EUR: Umm, Eddie, Bryant Gumbel is definitely someone who speaks his mind, but we are not aware of him making any racist remarks. In the words of Arnold from "Different Strokes," "Whatchoo-talkin-bout, Willis?!"

*DeBorah B. Pryor, Southern California:
"As I was watching television the other day, a wonderful trailer from the upcoming OutKast movie 'Idlewild' came on and lo and behold, out of only two journalist reviewers mentioned, YOU, Mr. Bailey, of EUR-Radioscope fame, was one of them.

The movie is a fantastic one (I know this from having seen it as well!) and I congratulate you and encourage your readers to run, not walk, when the movie opens today, Friday, August 25. Good work simply must be rewarded!!!"

EUR: DeBorah, Mr. Bailey thanks you for the props and like you, he encourages everyone to check out "Idlewild" this weekend.
