I don't understand why people get offended when a sports team has a name with the smallest amount to do with them, like the Braves, the Redskins, you should feel lucky. What nicknames did white people get, Cracker, Redneck, you can't make those sound cool, or even any more than purely disgusting.If they named a sports team after us I would be ecstatic, I could just imagine, the Crazy Crackers, that would be my favorite team, I wouldn't care if they were the worst team ever, I'd be like "Wooh, Yeah go you Crazy Crackers" I would love to be at the meeting of angry slaves 200 years ago who came up with our names, "Okay, everybody, I hear they are freeing slaves around Europe, so, let's come up with stuff to call them whities when we get free." "They are weak and brittle, like a cracker, and they burn easily, and I bet they taste overly salty." "Okay I like that one, uhh... what about white devil. " "Of course" Okay everbody heres my favorite "You know those asian people, I hear they have very small Uhh, you know, why don't we make it sound like they are very similar to asians in that way." "ooh,ooh I know, we can call them Caucasian, they'll never notice if we spell it different." How did we get that one name the name that isn't dirty, or insulting, but it sounds like both, we couldn't get anything, not British American, not American American, I would even be more happy with Cracker American.
