So just because the majority of the team was black, it's automatically defaulted to a racist comment? It was a JOKE, and had no intentions.

In 1993 Ted Danson said ""Words by themselves are not racist. Racism is a matter of intent." After a joke as him dressing up as blackface for Whoopi Goldberg. Goldberg sided with Danson on his statement.

Which is a bit ironic, since Whoopi has been vocal in the Imus incident stating how offended she was. She must have forgotten that her offensive humor made her what she was.

It's sad that everything is a double standard really.
