Bend It Like Bennett, one of the most hilarious basketball blogs out there, has a glimpse inside of Un-Sonics/Thunder owner Clay Bennett's household. Bennett's 16-year-old son, Graham, has the following listed as one of his favorite "quotations" (with "Dad" assumed to be Clay):

↵In fairness, I'd also be mortified if I saw a cheerleader that looked like Clay Bennett with a wig on. But to be so shocked a cheerleading squad might have "a Pakistani" and two black girls -- one skinny and the other short -- well, Clay obviously has taught his kids all about the value of respecting diversity. And he certainly has instilled in his son what you should and should not post to the internet.

↵For what it's worth, Crooked Oak is a public school in the poorer OKC city center. Graham apparently attends Casady, a $15,000-per-year private school located in a swanky part of town known delightfully as The Village. Just so you know.

↵(Oh, and Graham -- the son of the man who still holds that he did nothing under the belt to get the Sonics to OKC despite overwhelming evidence to the contrary -- belongs to the following Facebook groups: Send the Sonics to Oklahoma!!!, Sonics to OKC, and Congrats Clay on Bringing NBA to OKC!!. Awesome.)↵
