Depends..................But if the ref was calling him "boy" and it can be proved, why would he lie, it should be some kind of reprimand. FYI.............If I was at work and someone called me a "boy" I would be pretty upset. I was watching ESPN First Take and Skip Bayless stated to Greg Anthony if he was called a "boy" by a older caucasian man it would be OK. Grown men should never be referred to as "Boys," but some people think it is OK. Walk into my job and say, "Morning, Boys," you will get no response back, just a stare.Wouldn't something like this show up in the audio of an NFL films clip or something?He says the ref keep calling McAllister "boy" all night.

Stuart Smith on his show today stated that this happens all the time. Older african-americans call younger african-americans boy often. Smith said the Ravens need to get whining about it. Also, apparently Scott or one of the Ravens called out the ref earlier in the game with some comment that he never played the game and it turns out that ref did play in the NFL.

I'm not really big on the PC thing, but calling someone "Boy" is pretty derogatory. No referee should ever be calling a player "Boy". If it was done repeatedly I can see a player getting pretty pissed off and I think the league should put an end to it.

I have seen refs give it back to Brady on a few occasions and he just turned around and walked off the field. He is smart enough to understand that if you want to dish it out, you have to take it.

Brady is a bigger whiner than Peyton and that's hard to do. I'm not so sure he would have taken being called "Boy" all game all that much better.

I'd love to see him play the race card since the ref calling him boy was a black former player.It all depends on the context and how he said it, but what's the difference between the ref saying c'mon fellas, or troops or such and saying boy. And what was the first unsportsmanlike Scott got?
FYI, it was Samari Rolle, not McAllister.http://www.usatoday.com/sports/football/nf...e-comment_N.htmHe says the ref keep calling McAllister "boy" all night.

IMO the NFL will look into this. More than a few Ravens claim they were called names and were taunted by the refs. The Refs in the NFL are not near as good as they were 4 or more years ago. Thats what replay does. They dont do their job as well. IMO it looks bad on the NFL this season. With all of the crying by coaches and players and the quality of the refs, its starting to be like the NBA.. Its hurting the leagues image. Everyone blames someone else. Im starting to lose respect for the coaches,players and the Refs. And im sure im not the only one.

Do any of you read? Scott DID NOT play the race card today on his show. In fact, it was just the opposite. He ripped the Ravens for whining about this. In addition to the ref being African-American, he also played in the NFL which one of the Ravens(Rolle) started all this off by stating "you never played the game".

So Rolle told McKinley he "never played the game" (which he did) and then was upset when the guy called him "boy?" What a baby.

IMO the Refs should not give anything back. Its not their place. Say what he saw and that it. If they dont like a player jawjacking throw a flag. They have no business with the players.

Are you kidding me? This is so stupid and blow out of proportion it is ridiculous. Maybe if they acted like adults they will be treated as adults. Play Ball!!Wow. I though like he looked like a stupid hothead throwing away their last chance in their self-described "SuperBowl", but I didn't realize a referee had called another player boy, allegedly. It all makes sense now.

again, said ref is black too! I'm not saying Rolle shouldn't have a problem with it but I doubt the ref meant anything derogatory.

I disagree, If a black man takes offense to the term, it doesn't matter the color of the person who said it.
True the ref is black. Given his heritage he should know not to use the word in reference to another black man.

Actually, what he said was: "That's football. I've been in a lot of games on the other side. A lot of questionable calls out there, and you just keep playing and make plays when you need them. We made a lot of plays under pressure, and that's what we need down the stretch."IMO, he wasn't speaking of this game specifically, but saying that you need to concentrate on executing regardless of whether you agree with the officials. Regardless, I suggested providing me with a link where he complained about being personally insulted by an official. (It's also funny how a discussion about Rolle has turned into one about Brady, but I'll let that one go.)Try last night when he said there were questionable calls made in his post-game.If he is as big a whiner as you claim then I am sure he has been called something similar.

Considering this came from Smith I'm more than willing to think this is common. Smith stated it happens all the time and I believe he stated Rolle was acting like a little girl.
