Kudos to Cal Ripken for cancelling his appearance on Don Imus' radio program in the wake of Imus' racist comments about the Rutgers Women's basketball team.

According to Cal's publicist, John Maroon: "In light of recent remarks made on the program, Cal will not appear on the show as part of his national book tour."
An appearance on Imus can lead to a lot of book sales, but Cal is doing the right thing and making a strong statement by refusing to associate himself and his image with Imus and his ugly remarks. Once again Cal shows he has the guts to do the right thing.
