Yeah there is no need for personal slanging. It certainly is offensive and in bad taste.
People often using this sort of language at school and it often becomes deeply ingrained to the point where its used frequently and carelessly. And unfortunately it is often a part of sport culture to slang your opponents, without really thinking about how the words offend others.
Andrew Johns words were inexcusable. I trust he has learned an invaluable lesson about the need to temper ones words with due respect at all times. I would not like to see him personally suffer for this to the point of him losing his employment within the media because he has probably just got into the bad habit of being careless with the use of his words.
