Steve, I wouldn't be surprised if Don Imus gets the last laugh:

money.cnn.com

Here's the really crazy part:

> So under this argument, the case could turn on whether Imus' comments - which referred to members of the Rutgers women's basketball team as "nappy-headed hos" - meets the definition of profanity under FCC guidelines. The FCC, on its Web site, defines profanity as "including language so grossly offensive to members of the public who actually hear it as to amount to a nuisance."

So now they want to argue that the phrase could violate the FCC guidelines on "profanity"? Unbelievable ...
