ESPN is taking a little heat after a headline over the weekend aimed at the New York Knicks and one of the NBA's newest superstars. 

We've all heard the name Jeremy Lin and the new vocabulary that goes along with it, like Lin-sanity and Lin-credible, however, some said the phrasing used by ESPN was insensitive.
After the Knicks lost Friday night, ending a seven-game winning streak, an ESPN headline read, "Chink in the Armor." 

Lin is the first Taiwanese-American to play in the NBA.  Now, ESPN is apologizing, and has fired one person and suspended another.  The headline was up for about an hour.

ESPN has issued a statement saying, "We again apologize, especially to Mr. Lin.  His accomplishments are a source of great pride to the Asian-American community, including the Asian-American employees at ESPN."

Many fans of the Taiwanese-American point guard said the comment was out of line. 

"You wouldn't say any word or any racist tone, racist statement to any other race for that matter, so why should the Chinese be excluded?" said one fan.

"It's inappropriate… He should be treated like any other player," said another.

ESPN said it fired the person responsible for the headline, and suspended an anchor who read it on the air.

"ESPN has apologized, and there is no -- I don't think it was on purpose or whatever, but at the same time, they've apologized and so, from my end, I don't care anymore," said Lin in a news conference Sunday night. "I have to learn to forgive, and I don't even think that was the intention. Hopefully not."

Also at that news conference, Lin asked the media in Taiwan to give his relatives some privacy, saying they've been bombarded since all the Lin-sanity here in the U.S.

Lin also got it back on track on the court Sunday night. He scored 28 points and had 14 assists, helping lead the Knicks to victory over the Dallas Mavericks 104-97.
